Product Description
Product Description
Agmara is the breath of the universe. It is the rehuna's own breath. It is thought, emotion, the elements, the stuff of creation. The flesh of the dehara is wrought of agmara; it is their blood, their sinew, their essence. Agmara is the force that works magic. It is the current between possibilities and possibility itself. Its colour is generally a radiant greenish white, but occasionally it might be visualised in different hues for particular purposes. Agmara is moved with the will, which is part of it. When the rehuna summons agmara, they should feel its flood throughout their being. It is with them always but when the attention is turned elsewhere they do not feel it. Beneath the light of the rehuna's awareness, agmara grows stronger within them.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Path of the Seeker, Feb 23 2007
By S. K. Harrell - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Grimoire Dehara Book One: Kiamana (Hardcover)
The opportunity to read anything written by Storm Constantine is a gift. I was most moved in this presentation of Chaos Magick by Constantine's ability to put forth a system that fosters such intense evaluation of self and the release of personal assumption. In that regard few systems of magick stand out of their own way so gracefully.
I knew from reading the Wraeththu series that Constantine knows her stuff when it comes to elementally tapping into and moving life force. The rituals she's developed in this practice carry the same power that I felt through all of my Reiki attunements and the more "Enochian" level work that I've done. It's impressive, to say the least.
Yes, I'm a fangirl, and I had to subdue a squeal through the whole read. The thing is, the magick is real. From one who thrived on the Wraeththu mythos and thought Constantine had so artfully brought their world to life in words, I am moved by her dedication to her own imagination to share their system of magick so effectively and so clearly close to her heart. The book's teachings are no less remarkably packaged in beautiful prose and artwork.

An interesting piece of paradigm-specific pop culture magic, July 27 2006
By Lupa - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Grimoire Dehara Book One: Kiamana (Hardcover)
I was introduced to the Wraeththu mythos and "Pop Culture Magick" by Taylor Ellwood (who contributed to the Grimoire) about a year ago. Being an adventurous magician, I found that using modern mythology in magic was just as effective as ancient mythology. This book, the first in a series of three, is an excellent tool for those wishing to do the same.
Utilizing the Wraeththu mythos, surrounding androgynous, hermaphroditic deities from Constantine's books, "Kaimana" weds the mythos to basic neopagan practices and holidays. It's a superb look at how the gods need not be found in Bulfinch or Hamilton's books of mytholog to be appropriate to the cycles of the seasons and life.
While the book is primarily aimed at fans of the Wraeththu mythos, those who have not yet been introduced to it may find this to be a fascinating take on spirituality. Reading the fiction that the mythos come sfrom is helpful, and well worth the read. However, Constantine proves she can write nonfiction every bit as well as fiction.

Beautiful as it is informative..., Mar 24 2011
By Darquel - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Grimoire Dehara Book One: Kiamana (Hardcover)
For those who already have a love of Wraeththu, this is something that you will instantly fall in love with. Every page pours with information and guidance that delves further into Storm's world. The seasonal rites, the dehar, the rituals, all give great focus into the very heart of what it means to be Har.
As well, for those who follow chaos magic, the written series as well as this book give great potency to the idea of sex magic and blur the lines of male/female boundaries. A worthwhile read for any Pagan or Wiccan, or any of those who wish to forge their own path.
