Publisher's Synopsis
Lucifer: A Theosophical Magazine, March to August 1890 is a collection of six issues of the magazine Lucifer, edited by the renowned Theosophist Helena Petrovna Blavatsky. The magazine covers a range of topics related to Theosophy, a spiritual movement founded by Blavatsky, including Eastern and Western philosophy, mysticism, and occultism. The articles in the magazine are written by various authors, including Blavatsky herself, and cover subjects such as the nature of the soul, theosophical interpretations of the Bible, and the role of women in Theosophy. The magazine also includes reviews of books related to Theosophy and other spiritual practices. The publication of Lucifer was controversial at the time, as some saw it as promoting Luciferianism or Satanism. However, Blavatsky maintained that the magazine was intended to shed light on spiritual truths and was not meant to be taken as a literal endorsement of Lucifer.
