    Very nice to see some Joseph Campbell! I would like to read his Romance of the Grail: The Magic and Mystery of the Arthurian Myth.

      Ah! Lovely stuff! I actually have that one, though I haven't read through it yet. THat was one of his very early works if I understand correctly, and actually his main, original area of expertise.

      @@hekabookstore Oh yes I know it is Australian dollars. But 300GBP doesn't really convert to that much AU$. Sure, you maybe didn't get much or any wholesale discount, but still seems high for a standard retail price. I guess you have GST but it isn't that much.

      ​@@rssreader7352 I believe our price is only 50 GBP more than what you'd find from US retailers. Ordering this book from a US retailer to Australia can be very expensive due to high shipping and import taxes. Heka Books aims to offer significant savings for customers in the southern hemisphere. Unfortunately, if you're in the US or Europe, our prices may not be as advantageous for you. While we do ship internationally, our focus is on primarily benefiting customers in this region. I hope you understand!

    Very nice! I've had Lost Envoy for a few years now, and after seeing your video, I'm going to have to pick up the deck and the other book...the boxed sets are nice, but I don't think I can justify that expense when I already have one of the major components of it. I saw that when it was on Kickstarter, I think, a while back, and wish I had the money for it then...but getting the components that I am missing will be good enough; the box, pin, bag, and enlarged cards would be cool, but the meat of it is in the other parts of it, at least for working purposes, I think. ;)
    I did receive all three of Jenx's Thai Occult books in the last month, which was very exciting to me! I'm glad to have them, and have been dipping into them a bit over the last two weeks as they arrived.
    I also spent a little more money than I would have preferred to get a copy of a book that has been out-of-print for a while, but which often goes for three times as much as I paid for my copy, which is Joseph Nagy's The Wisdom of the Outlaw: The Boyhood Deed of Finn in Gaelic Narrative Tradition, originally published in 1985, but already a classic that has transformed the field of medieval Irish literary studies ever since it was released. I used to have a photocopy of it, but somehow--I still am not sure how, it in fact almost seems supernatural that this occurred--during the pandemic and all of the nonsense happening then, my photocopy of it (that was comb bound very nicely by the person that gave it to me) became completely mangled by something that I can't account for...I mean, it looks like it was trampled upon by something with razor blades for feet, and the edges of it became shredded/frayed, and as nothing like that (to my knowledge) came into contact with it, I don't know how that could have occurred. Things in immediate contact to either side of it were not damaged at all, which added to the mystery. I very sadly had to consign that photocopy (which I've had for decades) to the trash because it was not legible any longer, though I honestly considered keeping it and seeing if I could somehow recover bits of it. Because I need it for academic purposes, though, I just bit the bullet and got the copy I did while the price was somewhat more affordable than the other options. I am not letting it out of my sight, needless to say!

      How weird! The fact that the neighbouring books would be untouched is the most perplexing. 😯 I'm so glad you were able to pick up Peter Jenx's books! Aren't they fascinating? And you are of course 100%right about needing to mitigate between "nice to have" trinkets and what's important 👌

    For De Natura Rerum, there's just something about red and black ink on cream/ivory paper 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
    You have reminded me that I have a copy of The Hero With A Thousand Faces which I should have been reading all along since I'm trying to write my own story 😅

      I expect you're talking about the very sadly out of print, and criminally overpriced "Rainbow Fairy Books" by Robert Lang in their Folio Society edition. They have told me personally that they are likely never going to re-print :(

    (Copy pasted) Hello! After reading some biblical verses and reading the comments under this video I arrived at some conclusions.
    1. The schizotypal/right-brained urge to talk in verse to describe phenomena is annoying and pretentious.
    2. I have a feeling that in this case “Lucifer” is similar to the postmodern trend of “expirience determines reality/axiomatical truth” hence shenanigans like “I am a bringer of light [which is a code word for truth]” and so forth. On the other hand “God” is a codeword for canon logic whose main goal is the thermodynamic continuation of the self (Evil being dysgenic tendencies).
    I would be happy if you expanded and explained your beliefs with more clarity.

      @@FoolishFishBooks I was exploring the “satanism” and “luciferian” ideas on youtube and I was curious. Since I came from a Christian background, I know many words and characters are just codenames or metaphors for something else and can be viewed from a entirely secularist perspective.

    Loving the AOS deluxe, TSFS the link so I could get the deluxe edition! I’m in heaven as I learned with playing cards @ maybe 8 yrs old (think younger, Italian family thing😊) then my 1st deck was the Marseilles so I’m very much enjoying it tho the minor is different from how I learned it.
