Israel Regardie Psycologizing Esotericism & Magic

#israelregardie #regardie #goldendawn

We explore the significant contributions of Israel Regardie to Western esotericism, focusing on his unique fusion of esoteric and psychological concepts. Regardie, a key figure in the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, is renowned for his approach to “psychologisation” in esoteric studies. We dissect this concept through various modes: complementary, terminological, reductive, and idealist, offering a nuanced view of the interplay between psychological and esoteric discourses in his works.

This episode delves into Regardie’s influential works, such as “The Tree of Life” and “A Garden of Pomegranates,” highlighting his dual role as a magician and psychotherapist. Join us for an academically rich discussion on Regardie’s legacy and his sophisticated integration of psychological and esoteric thought.
