<p>Sex and the Occult is a vivid, realistic picture of the sensual, cruel and sometimes terrifying beliefs and practices which have influence the lives of millions in the past and continue to do so in some countries today. Sex and occultism have always enjoyed an irresistible attraction for one another, and their union has provided some of the most colorful and tragic chapters in the story of mankind.With the decline of the great pagan cultures, Christianity sparked off a bitter controversy between the cult of sexuality as honorable and pleasing to the gods, and the debasement of sex itself as evil. But today, thanks to the advent of greater sexual freedom and an upsurge of interest in the occult, the bond between sex and occultism has been strengthened once again.Gordon Wellesley examines afresh ancient practices of the sexual-occult and shows that today's tendencies towards sexual freedom, meditation, an appreciations of music in the higher decibels, and the intake of drugs, in particular LSD, herald the return of a very old morality. Contemporary counterparts can be found for succubi-female demons who make love with sleeping mortals, incubi-evil spirits that descend like nightmares upon people during sleep, even werewolves and suchlike sado-sexual creatures of the night. Black and white magic survive today, too and are practised by people from all walks of life throughout the world. Then there is the extraordinary phenomenon of sexual transcendency, which emerges in SEX AND THE OCCULT as the meeting-point of the traditional occult with the broader thinking of the seventies.Throughout his investigations the author throws new light on the age-old notion of sexual-occultism by bringing it in line with the most up-to-date philosophies and scientific research. Clearly explained, the co-relation of such factors as a new understanding of transcendency )trance and ecstasy), recent research into 'cellular memories' revealing evidence of pre-human existences, and spectacular advances in molecular genetics unveiling the working of the DNA code in sexual reproduction, provides new answer to some of the oldest and most intriguing questions related to the sexual-occult.</p>
