Tantrik Astrology
by Michael Magee
1869928-067, 1989 128 pages £6.99/$9.99pbk
The first-ever manual of Tantrik Astrology, which differs from the kind of astrology you see in newspaper columns in two ways. First, its analysis is based on the actual position of the planets and stars. Due to irregularities in the movements of the earth (precession), many people's sun signs have been wrongly calculated. You might find you have a completely new astrological identity in the Tantrik system described in this book. Secondly, and more importantly; it alerts us to the whole purpose of astrology; that is, to start the process of deconditioning from the individual's fixed mind-set as laid down at birth in the wheel of time, or Kalachakra.
'His remarks on prana, or breath, vis-a-vis planetary influences, are even more profound....all in all, this is fascinating material....' Abrasax 6
Kaulajnananirnaya, £8/$14 + p&p
This text is edited with exhaustive introduction by P C Bagchi, with English Translation available from Michael Magee (Prachya Prakasha: Varanasi 1986).
This published version is 700 verses in 24 chapters, the first of which, though incomplete, is ascribed to Matsyendranath, the founder of the Kaula practice. Several important subjects to the adept are treated in a manner not always easy to follow due to the preponderance of obscure technical expressions. This is probably a text for someone with an initiated knowledge and rewards close study. The introduction by P C Bagchi is very authoritative and runs to 90 pages. It provides a thorough introduction to the history and philosophy of the Nath (Sovereign) sect of Tantrics still active and organised in the UK today.
Vamakeshvarimatam, £5/$10 plus p&p
We see the continuation of opposition to ‘Vedic ways’ in full blown tantrik texts as the VAmakeshvarimatam. This text is not mentioned by Abinavagupta, the extremely thorough ancient historian of Tantra who lived c1000ad. It is often assumed from this that the text cannot be older than this date. It is an important text of more than secondary importance. VAmakesvarimatam is means ‘the doctrine of the Queen of the Left hand path’. It is a Tantra of the Shri Vidya school, a text of particular importance to worshipers of the primordial goddess.
The Vinasikhatantra, £8/$15
The only surviving text of the 'Left current' (vamasrotas), not to be confused with 'Left path' (vamamarg) in Saiva Tantrism, here translated and introduced by Tantra expert, Teun Goudriaan.
