It compares favorably to, if not better than, Kraig's Modern Magick or Frater U.D.'s High Magick, two excellent similar books.Like those other books on Ceremonial Magick, Greer covers the basics from theory to practice and offers exercises to learn the systems. Unlike other books, however, he doesn't stop his book and suggest that you commit a month to some exercise before turning a page. Though regular work and experimentation will reward the practitioner, it's refreshing not to be asked by an author to stop reading a book in the middle of it.Greer's excellent writing offers the reader no-nonsense, straight forward instruction like a well written text book. Never is the reader in doubt as to the writer's genuine knowledge of the material.Greer's commitment to excellence is shown in his choice to edit out all the Enochian elements from the Golden Dawn Rituals he's presenting. Rather than just parrot what others have said, (including the GD itself), he refrains because he feels his understanding and experience of that part off the work is inadequate. The removal of these elements, by the way, detracts nothing from the rituals and work he presents. He substitutes Cabalistic elements skillfully and effectively in their stead. (I personally like the Enochian system and hope Greer eventaully delves into it and shares his insights.)The weakest part of the book is Llewellyn's publishing. Give them points for including an index, but, considering how excellent this book is, Llewellyn's decision to use pulp acid paper is tantamount to a crime. No one who reads this book, no practicing magician at any rate, would ever consider it disposable, but it will yellow and crumble over time. This is a sad state when one considers the publisher's short print runs and thinks how sought after this book will be in the second hand market when it falls out of print.My advice; if you're new the art, or old to the art, or interested in the least, you should buy this book. It's excellent. Like Greer's other book in this series, Paths of Wisdom, Circles of Power is destined to be a classic. Buy it now while you can still afford it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Star Classic on The Western Current *by B***I on Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2016* This is actually my second or third purchase of John Micheal Greer's classic on Western Magic. It is a companion book for Paths Of Wisdom, a guide to the magical cabala. No matter what current you practice in, it is a must for any occult library. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best "how-to" book on the Golden Dawn magical tradition *by M***S on Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2015* Hands-down the best "how-to" book for anyone who wants to practice the solitary Golden Dawn magical tradition (and I've read dozens of similar volumes over the years). I particularly liked it because it dispenses of the Enochian material in the traditional Golden Dawn corpus in favor of a strictly Cabalistic magic. So if you find Enochian useful, this book might disappoint you. Greer's course of study is appropriately paced and doesn't stray into other traditions like chaos magic and Wicca (as does Kraig's Modern Magick). You can tell you are reading a book written by a knowledgable and experienced practitioner and a scholar, not a dilettante. Highly recommended to anyone wanting to pursue the venerable Golden Dawn tradition but who might be daunted by other more voluminous works. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/103771847-circles-of-power-ritual-magic-in-the-western-tradition-paperback](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/103771847-circles-of-power-ritual-magic-in-the-western-tradition-paperback) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
