Enter the world and lore of the London occult with this month's (r)Evolutionary guest, Geraldine Beskin, owner of the world famous Atlantis BookshopPLUS ... our monthly Astrology Update and Living Well segments ... AND ... a Roundtable discussion on Desire.

Geraldine Beskin is the longtime owner of the 92-year-old The Atlantis Bookshop in London. Located in the Bloomsbury district on Museum Street two blocks from the British Museum, the shop is the oldest and most well-known occult shop in England and quite possibly the world. It was « founded by magicians for magicians » in 1922 by occultist Michael Houghton. Some of the most well-known occultists and witches have passed through its doors including Aleister Crowley, Gerald Gardner, Dion Fortune, W.B. Yeats and so many more. In 1962, Geraldine’s father assumed ownership of the store. At the age of 19, she began working in the shop and then eventually took over as owner in 1972, sold the shop in 1989, only to return to London and repurchae it in 2002. News spread quickly that “Geraldine was back in town.” Today she and her daughter Bali together own and manage Atlantis, which also publishes its own material under its imprint Neptune Press just as it did in 1922. Geraldine offers lectures around the world on occult topics such as “Woman of the Golden Dawn,” “Aleister Crowley: The Man behind the Mask” and “Many P. Hall: The Murdered Mystic.”
