Israel Regardie believed- that every Magician should undergo psychotherapy Simultaneously with Initiation. For the student working outside of an Initiatic Order, psychotherapy is highly recommendable for a variety of reasons. Any Spiritual Discipline, practiced with enough discipline and persistence, will eventually bring forth powerful unconscious contents into consciousness. In the case of Ceremonial Magic, there exists a particular danger of ego inflation or in some cases even megalomania.
Furthermore, whereas the solitary practitioner of Ceremonial Magic may potentially accomplish the magical aspect of Initiation independently, the psychological aspect is virtually impossible to complete alone.
