A foundational text of chaos magic, and one of the most influential occult books of the late 20th century. Peter J. Carroll strips magic down to its core mechanics: belief, intention, gnosis, and results.
Split into two parts, Liber Null focuses on theory and core practices, while Psychonaut expands into experimentation, altered states, and the psychology of magic. This is not ceremonial tradition. It is raw, direct, and highly practical.
Expect sigils, belief shifting, trance states, and a very anti-dogma approach. This book shaped modern chaos magic and still sits at the centre of that current.
A must-have for anyone interested in contemporary occult practice or the evolution of magic beyond traditional systems.
