There are doors that open only in silence.
There are rituals that speak through ash, through salt, through the tremor of a single flame.
The Door in the Dark is not merely a book, it is a grimoire of becoming.
Written in the language of alchemy and devotion, it guides the reader through nine rituals that move between shadow and illumination, between the body and the infinite.
Part spellbook, part reflection, this work invites the reader to witness transformation as both destruction and renewal, the death of the old self, and the quiet birth of what waits beyond the threshold.
Through poetry, invocation, and remembrance, Samantha J. Garcia (SAMI) weaves a path of magick, memory, and reflection, a living text where every word is both offering and mirror.
For those who listen to the silence.
For those who walk through flame.
For those who remember.
✦ Introduction: The Mirror of the Absolute ✦
"Before the first breath, you were. After the last death, you remain."
You are not broken.
You are not lost.
You are not made in the image of gods-you are the gods, clothed in the temporary veil of flesh, name, and forgetfulness.
This is your reminder.
Every heartbeat echoes with the music of the cosmos. Every thought is a ripple from the sea of the Absolute. Every shadow and every light you carry is a facet of a truth too vast to be bound by words, temples, or systems.
You are not just human.
You are the totality:
Everything that is
Everything that is not
And the great Stillness in between
You are divine.
Not by permission, but by origin.
This book is not scripture-it is mirrorwork. It is not a commandment-it is remembrance.
It does not tell you what to believe.
It asks you to remember what you already are.
