Sex and The Supernatural: The Paranormal, Sexuality and The Erotic Imagination (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781923174337)

This book is not about the supernatural of otherworldly ghouls, vampires, incubi and succubi, the figures that feature so strongly in fairytales, horror stories and nightmares. Rather it is the supernatural that exists on the edge of our daily reality beyond a very thin veil. It is the supernatural that, of modern times, we have called the paranormal, and sanitised it with science and rational explanation.

Yet this very same supernatural remains alive and well, living at the edge of our consciousness and accessible spontaneously in dream and fantasy. At this level, the vampire could be a colleague or acquaintance who psychically bleeds you or the succubus, the wife of your best friend who flirts with you at the dinner table fuelled by the vine, and then inhabits your dream.

Sexuality is a time-honoured pathway to such expanded states of consciousness and is used as the vehicle into the supernatural in the stories. In our Western culture, much of this sexual wisdom has been lost, yet it has not disappeared and can arise under the right circumstances when encouraged - though frequently both spontaneously and unbidden.

Warning! This book contains material of a sexually-explicit nature.Some readers may find this offensive.
