Tankhem: Meditations on Seth Magick, Mogg Morgan
182 pages, paperback, illustrated. Mandrake of Oxford 2003
ISBN 1-869928-555
Ancient Egypt and the ‘Typhonian’ deity Seth, how to find out more? Followers of later cults obliterating Seth’s monuments, demonising and neglecting his cult. A possible starting point in the quest for the ‘hidden god’ is an examination of the life of Egyptian King Sety I (‘He of Seth’) also known as Sethos.
When looking for an astral temple that included all of the ancient Egyptian gods and goddesses, the Temple of Sety I proved itself worthy of examination. Many secrets began to reveal themselves. The essence of the real philosophy of the Sethian and indeed what Satanism is, stems from the author’s astral wanderings in this temple.
The temple is a real place and like any temple no part of its design is accidental. It is a record in stone and paint of the Egyptian mythos. It is also fits quite well with the Thelemic mythos and tells lots of interesting things about the ancient Seth cult - if you have the eye to see it.
