Highmagic
| High Magic is a branch of magical knowledge surrounding the study of the cabala, or spheres of energies, also known as sephiroth, that compose the universe. These spheres are symbolically arranged on a diagram called the Tree of Life and connected by a network of paths. A variety of useful and beneficial spellcraft can be learned through mastering this occult philosophy. This branch of arcane studies is highly ritualized and intellectualized, and is also a prerequisite for studying cosmic or elemental magic. |
