Many different systems and traditions of magic, divination, spirituality, and esoteric religion exist, but at their core, they share the need for practitioners to safely and successfully experience the reality that lies beyond the physical senses.
Keys to Perception: A Practical Guide to Psychic Development is a collection of proven and tested methods, rituals, and systems that will help you deepen and clarify your capacity to sense and understand the rich worlds beyond the veils of the ordinary. The material in this book derives from decades of work by the author and his students.
Dominguez offers the reader practical techniques for increasing psychic aptitude and ability. There are also techniques to manage empathy and psychic sensitivity so that they are gifts rather than burdens. Methods featured include chanting and working with crystals, chakras, oils, herbs, and potions, as well as a variation on the Middle-Pillar Ritual.
"Keys to Perception is another masterful work by Ivo Dominguez, artfully blending deep metaphysical insight into the nature of psychic perception with clear and direct instructions and examples. Only someone with a long history of direct experience and an educated understanding of the phenomenon could write this book to both convey useful skills to beginners and provide new perspectives for seasoned psychics. Grounded and practical as well as flexible in approach. I look forward to recommending this to students, friends, and peers alike." -- Christopher Penczak, award winning author and co-founder of the Temple of Witchcraft
"For some people, witchcraft is about herbs and candles and prayers to the gods. For some others, magic is about the proper grimoire and ritual protocols. Keys to Perception is for those that want to see and feel and know directly. Once you can do this, magic is forever transformed. Developing this perception takes work. Even those who are naturally psychic can greatly improve their accuracy and power through training. Ivo presents a battery of methods that will give you the skills to see and communicate with a whole other world, leaving no doubt about the realities of magic." -- Jason Miller, author of Financial Sorcery and The Sorcerer's Secrets
