Living Spirits explores the various types of spirits which exist in Western Magic and how they can be approached in a world alive with their presence and power. Living Spirits invites readers to jump off the sidelines and reach deep into the rich soil of a magical world and explore its power and mysteries so as to apply them for the purposes of real and effective magic. The book explores the traditions of the grimoires but goes beyond that and explores spirit magic in a broader current based on building relationships with spirits.《活灵》探讨了西方魔法中存在的各种类型的灵体,以及如何在一个充满它们的存在和力量的世界中接近它们。《活灵》邀请读者跳出旁观者的行列,深入到魔法世界的肥沃土壤中,探索它的力量和奥秘,以便将它们应用于真正有效的魔法目的。本书探讨了魔典的传统,但又超越了这一点,在与灵体建立关系的基础上,在更广泛的潮流中探讨了灵体魔法。
