Genesis

Between both paper and digital books, I have a library that would be the envy of any 16th or 17th Century Magus.... which would be great if I actually lived in the 16th or 17th Centuries, but, alas, here I am in the 21st and there just isn't as much call for the services of a wizard or a cunning-man in these modern days.

Nevertheless, I find them fascinating, and interesting to read, for the most part. Some, I'll admit, are really difficult going. I'm still trying to slog my way through Agrippa's Three Books of Occult Philosophy. I did a small dance of joy when I finished all 4 books of The Picatrix, and frankly, Sepher Raziel makes my head hurt just trying to understand the grammar in it.

But, I figured I would post here some of what I've read, and some of the interesting things I've found.
