About this listen
This is a heavily revised and updated version of this classic occult text. While the utterances and philosophy expressed in this book represent a concise statement of esoteric philosophy spanning several millennia, the importance of this work lies in part with whom it has influenced. Most if not all of the Golden Dawn initiates were affected by the aphorisms in this short tract. Aleister Crowley quotes from this book almost more than any other. Two of his favorite pet phrases - "invoke often" and "enflame thyself with praying" - were drawn directly from this book. Crowley's Thelemic ritual, the Star Ruby, calls upon the beings discussed throughout the Oracle. In fact much of Crowley's Thelemic metaphysics are influenced by this book. Many examples of the influence of this book are scattered throughout his writings, and the astute student of his writings will recognize many passages.
This also had a large influence upon the other adepts of the Golden Dawn as well as upon the movements that came to be known as Wicca and the New Age. This treatise can be savored again and again, bringing new insights with each study.

To the ancients, the goddess Hekate symbolized the inner journey back to the soul. Indeed, ancient philosophers identified her as Anima Mundi, the "soul of the world." As such, she connects many archetypes associated with the cycle of life, death, and rebirth. From her role as protector of roadways to her power as the bringer of death, she offers us keys for healing. Incorporating her personal experiences with those of her students, Cyndi Brannen weaves a supporting circle around the listener as they start their path towards soulful living, culminating in rebirth.

Over the past few years, Hekate has gained increasing popularity around the world. While there are books written about the historical Hekate, there is a lack of information applying this knowledge for personal development and practicing witchcraft. Keeping Her Keys blends the "keys" of personal development, magick, and the ancient goddess, Hekate, together. Topics include the power of prayer, how to create sacred space, and guidance on spell-crafting. In the final chapter, listeners can perform an optional self-initiation to become a Keeper of Her Keys.

The history of the tablets translated in the following book is strange and beyond the belief of modern scientists. Their antiquity is stupendous, dating back some 36,000 years. The writer is Thoth, an Atlantean Priest-King, who founded a colony in ancient Egypt after the sinking of the mother country. He was the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, erroneously attributed to Cheops. In it he incorporated his knowledge of the ancient wisdom and also securely secreted records and instruments of ancient Atlantis.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

I never appreciated the Chaldean Oracles when I was first introduced to them but in time you connect to them. The erudite narration of one Alan Weyman makes this a deep relaxing listen. It feels like a Learned ancient scribe reading from a papyrus scroll.Close your eyes and visualize these ancient sayings and you will have a profound experience indeed.

Poorly Narrated
Its probably a good book, but the narrator has a major speech impediment that makes it painful to listen to,. He sounds like the Abbott from "Princess Bride" who says "wuv... twue wuv..." Just buy the text version instead.

fragments of the Neoplatonic Bible
Christianity had a major competitor in philosophy: Neoplatonism. They read Plato in a way similar to how the Christians read the Old Testament and build upon it for years until it was suppressed by Christianity's attempts at patricide.
Julian the Apostate, who would've restored the Empire back to it's hyperion glory would've had this become the new education. Proculus, a great philosopher and commentator instructed at the academy beginning with this text along with Plato's timaeus.
It unfortunately did not survive Christianity's onslaught. This recording is from a collection of fragments passed down to us from the Hermetic tradition. As such, the first 5 chapters are commentaries, falsely attributing it to Zoroaster. Although there is considerable Zoroastrian influence these come from the Chaldaen dynasty of Assyria/Babylon.
The content is a mythical account of philosophical doctrine. Anyone interested in religions dealing with transcendant emanations such as Platonism, Sufism, Hermeticism, Kaballah or Christian gnosticism or anyone interested in meditation, communicating with their subconcious "flower of mind" will be sure to benefit from this.
