Agrippa's view of divine order was subsequently eclipsed by the materialism and atheism of the Enlightenment, but 500 years later, his influential work endures as a cornerstone of mystic literature.\u003cbr\u003eIn serious, educated, and accessible terms, Agrippa defines occultism and magic as a natural means of attaining knowledge and power. His explanations of planetary rulerships, enchantments, sorceries, types of divination, and the interpretation of dreams offer an intriguing array of possibilities: improved health, prolonged life, increased wealth, and enhanced foresight. This inexpensive edition of his classic study offers students of the history of ideas and occult traditions an essential reference tool.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dover Publications","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45865778348183,"sku":"9780486447179","price":1127.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780486447179.webp?v=1767681278","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/agrippas-occult-philosophy-natural-magic-9780486447179","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
