Today, our societies are facing the failure of rationalism and progressivism; things are breaking down, despite our having the human, scientific, financial, and even political means to advance towards a better future, both individual and collective. Could magic be a way to re-enchant the world? Perhaps it can offer an alternative for those who seek other techniques and knowledge to evolve personally, reassure themselves, regain confidence, and engage their creative consciousness in a different way and rediscover the world’s beauty. Purple delves into the archaic, multifaceted realm of magic, where each subject, series, text, and interview explores a magical door, key, or formula.
