It is hardly possible to give practical information on the methods of psychic defence without at the same time giving practical information on the methods of psychic attack. It is not without reason that initiates have always guarded their secret science behind closed doors. To disclose sufficient to be adequate without disclosing sufficient to be dangerous is my problem. But as so much has already been made known concerning the esoteric teachings, and as the circle of students of the occult is becoming rapidly wider every day, it may well be that the time has now come for plain speaking.

Autorenporträt
Dion Fortune was a British occultist, ritual magician, novelist, and author. He was born Violet Mary Firth on December 6, 1890, and he died on January 6, 1946. She was one of the people who started the occult group Fraternity of the Inner Light. This was a group that supported ideas that she said the Ascended Masters had taught her. She was a prolific writer who wrote many pieces and books about her occult ideas. She also wrote seven novels, many of which were about occult topics. She came to think that the Ascended Masters, including "the Master Jesus," were talking to her, so she used trance mediumship to pass on their messages. In 1922, Fortune and Charles Loveday said that Masters spoke to them during one of these rituals and gave them a book called The Cosmic Doctrine. Fortune is known as one of the most important ritual magicians and occultists of the early 20th century. The Fraternity she started lived on after she died, and in later years, it gave rise to many other groups that followed her ideas. The occult and current Pagan groups like Wicca were influenced by her books, especially the ones about witchcraft.
