Dr. David Shoemaker is a clinical psychologist in private
practice, specializing in Jungian and cognitive-behavioral
psychotherapy. David is the Chancellor and Prolocutor of the Temple
of the Silver Star, a Thelemic initiatory and educational
organization. He is a long-standing member of O.T.O. and A.'.A.'.,
and has many years of experience training initiates in these
traditions.
David's popular “Living Thelema” podcasts have appeared
regularly since 2010, and his widely praised Living Thelema book
was published in late 2013. His 2016 publication, The Winds of
Wisdom, contains a full record of his scrying of the Thirty
Enochian Aethyrs, as well as Llewellyn's Complete Book of
Ceremonial Magick, co-edited with Lon Milo DuQuette. David has
co-edited many volumes of the writings of Thelemic luminaries such
as Phyllis Seckler, Karl Germer, and Jane Wolfe. In addition to his
work in magick and psychology, David is a composer and
musician.
In his latest book, The Way of the Will, Shoemaker explores
how the spiritual discipline of Thelema, founded by Aleister
Crowley (1875-1947), can be utilized to enhance your psychological
and spiritual growth. The book grew out of the author's own
teachings and experiences—podcast episodes, classes, and of course,
many years of personal practice and supervision of other initiates.
It is a compendium of useful tools and perspectives designed to
serve as one of many useful guides in the magician's library.
