@@youmemeyouFrom my personal experience and esoteric studies, one is recommended to follow a path from the philosophy of their origin because it will resonate better and be more of that person's nature. That does not mean you can not choose to study other paths ( that's why there is theosophy) but overall this channel seems to describe more western tradition. However, I agree that doesn't mean the eastern tradition books presented aren't exceptional too. Good point you made though for sure.
I thank you sir, the great Mr. Foolish Fish, for this honor. Your appreciation of the work that I do is a great boon to the effort. I wish you and your family a Happy New Year!
William Swygard's Awareness Techniques book contains a simple exercise, easily learned, to explore other dimensions and expand one's realities/consciousness.
We, at Anathema, are deeply, deeply honoured and appreciative of your Top 10-(11) and truly, we share your views on all of the wonderful books presented! Thanks for mentioning The Hanged God, and, of course, IAO!!! ♥️♥️♥️
"Consorting With Spirits" was a real treat. I was glad they had an audio book. Spirits are probably my favorite topic in occultism, so I found it very useful. It gives you some practical advice that a lot of works don't touch on, not just techniques but also common pit falls. I was able to go out into a forest and contact a local spirit. I was able to confirm that I was actually communicating with something when a spirit told me to go to a specific location in the forest to find a specific object.
@@krystalmarie5637 If you're in tune with your gut feelings, you can pretty easily tell when a spirit is being hostile to you. It's a visceral sensation just like what you'd feel with a human. Plus, I have a good relationship with a goddess who I can call upon to protect me.
@@TheGreenKnight500 That’s great that you have the ability to discern and a being protecting you! I don’t think that I’m in tune with my gut feeling. Thanks for providing insight.
The Kabbalistic Tree... I'm only about a hundred pages in so far (just got it a couple of days ago) and I absolutely agree with it being included in your top ten. Wonderful read and the images are incredibly fascinating. Happy New Year to you and your family. Your genuine kindness is truly a breath of fresh air. And I thank you for it and this channel. May peace always be upon your path and within your heart.
Your passion and enthusiasm for these books is infectious and its hard to imagine a better representative to bring these treasures to light. Thank you and happy new year.
Consorting with spirits and Changeling were my favourite books of the year. Saying that, there were a lot of books that passed me by, next year I'm going to make more of an effort to get more reading hours in and purchase more of your recommendations. Happy new year to you and all the glorious souls that frequent this channel :)
This year has been great for occult book publishing, indeed! Thank you for posting this, Denis. May 2022 bring us much more. Best wishes, all you Foolish Fish! 🌒📖🌘
Thanks for bringing us another wonderful year of Foolish Fish videos, Denis! Great picks for you top 10 of the year, many of these & your honorable mentions are on my shelves as well. Somehow I missed the release of Greek and Egyptian Magical Formularies earlier in the year, an oversight I'll have to quickly remedy!
Happy new year dear Mr Poisson Tnx for all you did for me and all your viewers last couple of years and I wish you continue in your journey with success and joy. Your content is what gave me the gift of a finding my path, finding the answers and most importantly the right questions and where to look for them For that and for your kindness, I am grateful to you dear Mr Fish. Stay hungry, stay foolish...
Wonderful video, as always, Foolish Fish. Thank you. And I should like to mention that it's been of help to me. Indeed, you've convinced me that I need to get a deluxe copy of David Chaim Smith's, The Thirty-Two Keys. I'd also like to say that my leather-bound copy of Frater Acher's, Inegnium arrived today and, I concur, it smells absolutely *Heavenly*.
Mine would be Joshua Cutchin's 'Ecology of Souls' & Gordon White's 'Ani.Mystic'. I don't care how exclusive, expensive or well-bound a release happens to be. I'm more interested in what's in it & those happen to be classics.
I've said it again and again and again in the comments... I could listen to you for hours Denis. And you cost me alot of money everytime... Bonne Année ;)
i had to become a member with your channel finding your channel was life changing you’re the best when it comes to what you do im very grateful for everything and keep up the great work !! love from the USA lol
I’ve bought several books as per your recommendations this year, even some from this list, you have not led me astray yet and any from this list I haven’t read I have now made note to obtain, please continue with your efforts on your channel, happy new year!
chaewon koo always pops up on my tiktok feed for the past 3 months, i didnt know she wrote a book imma have to check her out she seems really knowledgable!
I think it would be interesting to see your subscribers' favorite books from those that you've reviewed! I am a new subscriber but can tell that it had to be a very difficult decision. These all look wonderful. Happy New Year!!! I feel that 2023 will be great!
You know you watch too much Foolish Fish when you're shouting out your top 2 book guesses at the screen 😂 Which there was never a doubt about which books made your top list lol. So many important books where released this year I feel like. Thank you for sharing your picks.
Thank you so much for another excellent video, and for all of your great work here on the channel! Perhaps next year, one of the books I hope to be producing (I haven't had a monograph come out since 2016, alas!) might make your runners-up list...we can hope! ;) Happy New Year!
The perfume throughout Ingenium is amazing. Truly was the erotic experience it was intended to be! Cheers to you FF for all the great videos you've put out this year, I'm always looking forward to the next one!
I have the standard Ingenium, consorting with spirits, the Greek and Egyptian Magical formularies, holy heretics and IAO. And after waking from a dream with the name David Chaim Smith on my mind and for no apparent reason. I’ve been mulling over his titles and have taken the plunge with the thirty two keys from watkins…
Can you please tell me what that series of books are behind you? It appears to be a set (blue, green, yellow, pink, red, brown, etc., with gold embossing on the spine)? I've looked through the entirety of your videos and don't see them. Thank you. Thanks to your videos, I have purchased the Library of the Esoterica by Taschen. What a beautiful series. I cannot wait for the next one.
It's (a selection from) the out of print Folio Society Rainbow Fairy Books by Andrew Lang. The series I keep pestering Folio Society to re-print (the orange and grey books currently go for over $1000 each on the second hand market right now), but they don't seem interested 😭
I got sidelined as I have been purchasing delux and illustrated Tolkein middle earth books. And the illustrated the northern lights from pullmans dark materials. So need the subtle knife and the amber spyglass illustrated versions…
I watched the whole library tour video and I don't think I saw any Phil hine or dion fortune books which I believe are a must have for any esoteric/occult library. Is there a reason for this?
Have you come across any books that in your opinion we should avoid? I know there was one particular book I returned with a quickness an hour after receiving it but I'm curious if there are some literary "duds" you came across
Anything by Samuel Sun Weor🤮, Fall of Man seem rather over-fascinated with the swastika, and not in a Hindu/Buddhist/Jain way 🤮, Hell Fire Club Books will take your money and ghost you (75%of the time!) 🤮 And don't waste your money with the Become a Living God edgelord bs... 🤮
Very Happy New Year Foolish Fish and all of this wonderful Magical community! I'd like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for being there when I discovered Magick, your esoteric Saturdays Videos really helped me when I was in one of the lowest places in my life and I'm so grateful 🙏. I've come a long way since seeing the Angel Numbers first starting to form Squares in the time on my phone (I don't freak out over them anymore lol) and thank you so much in particular for the New Allegory video, I want you to know that everything in it was absolutely spot on; I'm the youngest of 3 brothers, I do live in a village, I am really good at art and my beautiful jeweled goblet is the Holy power of Magick; the Allegory is me - the boy King David...psalm 23 (my actual name is Paul, but you already know that 😁). You are a wonderful teacher and I promise one day when I am able to I will make a donation, but for now I am sending you and all the subscribers the power of my Blessing 🙏 May all who read these words have a beautiful, and incredible New Year in 2023, may you be happy and joyous, most successful, and ever prosperous and let you be Blessed, and protected and loved always So Mote It Be 🙏
Happy New Year, @No One At All! What a beautiful, gracious testimony. I'm deeply honoured to have unwittingly been able to help out in your time of need. I wish you all the very best for 2023 😄🌟

Big agree, the only book I have out of the bunch (hardcovers are a bit out of my reach :D) and I loved it start to finish.
Were you not afraid that you may have been speaking with an evil spirit that meant you harm? Why and why not? I’m a beginner.
