Magick depends upon no abstract philosophies, and doing it requires neither devotion to any god or demon nor knowledge of the "True keys of the Mysteries."

Instead it is a technique for recognizing and manipulating psychic energy, both within the psyche and outside it, and for acquiring the mental skills we need to do this effectively. if the details of this technique can seem involved, well, the psyche is a complicated instrument, and psychic energy is slippery stuff to deal with. We must learn to manage it within our psyches and also to split off so it can act independently to produce the "meaningful coincidences" we require. Magick is a psychic technology, a collection of observations about psychic energy and the techniques for manipulating it. Shaping Formless Fire presents those with a simple elegance that contradicts the notion that magick must remain a hidden art.

IOT Books says, “Stephen Mace is considered an early and underground contributor to the Chaos current within the United States. IOT Books considers Shaping Formless Fire to be useful to those practitioners who simply appreciate solid chaos magic writing, but this book is also extremely applicable to those magicians recently embarked on the good ship Chaos.
