The Book of Immediate Magic - Part 2

Wow!! impressed by the amount of research that went into making the book. A great read. Teaches you on how to be creative in your magical journey to manifest your dreams.

Excellent, clear and concise meditation advice for opening the Gates of Understanding, correcting the Sefirot within to perceive reality and beyond at all levels. Having studied yoga and eastern systems, then transitioned to christian and hermetic systems in my 30 years of studying esoteric and occult methods, I understand that Jewish Kabbalah together with its reasoning, meditative and magical components serve as a backdrop for many other esoteric systems that developed way later. Mr. Swart’s knowledge is profound and he backs everything up by quoting authentic sources and his own practical experiences, leaving no stone unturned. I like his personal insights where he sheds more light on how his knowledge is often attacked by others who apparently have no idea what they are talking about (marketers who claim to be magicians and enrich themselves by selling you BS). If you want real system to follow and see results, then look no further - this a source I wished I had access to decades ago. Be ready to take notes and take what you need from this amazing action-packed content. Astrological considerations are another part of this book that I appreciate because there are way too many erroneous attributions scattered in other literature. As all his books, this is a practical source material with a lot of backup. I’ve been succesfully using Mr. Swarts advice for past few years to improve health, money and mindset - not to say that his meditation advice brought me many mystical experiences and Angelic encounters that I will now focus on even more. PS: I am in no way affiliated with Mr. Swart and this review based on my own experience with practical applications from Swart’s Shadow Tree Series - PS 2: Can’t wait to see another Swart’s book out

This is really about Immediate Magic and not for those who are still playing games. I actually purchased both volumes and applied the lessons as instructed with amazing results. Though I am familiar with energy healing and have purchased various different authors books on magic, this knowledge is comprehensive and it works on multiple levels. Thanks for the great information

Book is good to have

Great

What can I say. I met Jacobus for the first time over five years ago. I've always been interested in the subject of Kabbalah. But looking at the so called wisdom that was available to the general public, something never sat well with me. How could these so called "Wisdom Schools" chop and change things as they saw fit ? These so called experts didn't even understand the fundamentals of the Hebrew language. My intuition would later confirm that the central principles of authentic Kabbalah where unchangeable whilst their expression in the circumference was fluid and evolving. Most mainstream wisdom on Kabbalah was not in fact Kabbalah at all. And most of the fundamental errors which had been perpetuated since the early 20th century were still being perpetuated to this day. The most important advice I was ever given was that if the majority are espousing it, its generally wrong. Seek the road less traveled. The tree of life was in fact only a small portion of this magnificent tradition. And yet most recently published works rehashed the same old ideas over and over again with little to nothing new being added.I remember having a conversation with a local Rabi in which I expressed my interest in this ancient and living wisdom. He suggested I find a local Kabbalist with whom to learn. I never in my wildest dreams could of imagine at the time that I would find him on my doorstep. And so a friendship began, and many many hours of animated discussions and practice unfolded which provided the material for these two volumes of Immediate Magic.To say that this tradition was life changing is an understatement. Not only have I witnessed first hand the efficacy of these techniques. I have truly fallen in love with this system, for it truly is a sacred art.Life really is magical.Baruch'HashemSimon O'Regan

The other books he's written are good but this one has run out of good material so we are served up with pages and pages of lists of Herbs and Astrological Timings. It reads like witchcraft more than Kabbalah and isn't inspiring. The good parts have already been covered in his earlier works and there's a lot of repetition with the author referring you back to the other books. One long section covering a 49-day mediation might be interesting but there wasn't enough background material on its origins to make it feel authentic. The opening of the book is defensive, with a long story about an online argument which doesn't make the author appear like somebody who is at peace, and that undermines my trust in the work. It's like he's run out of good materials to work with and so we're getting herbs and spells.
