The Lesser Key of Solomon


Book Description

The Lesser Key of Solomon, also known as Lemegeton Clavicula Salomonis or simply Lemegeton, is an anonymous grimoire on demonology. It was compiled in the mid-17th century, mostly from materials a couple of centuries older. It is divided into five books—the Ars Goetia, Ars Theurgia-Goetia, Ars Paulina, Ars Almadel, and Ars Notoria. This edition was translated by Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers and published by Aleister Crowley under the title The Book of the Goetia of Solomon the King. Crowley added some additional invocations previously unrelated to the original work, as well as essays describing the rituals as psychological exploration instead of demon summoning.

Ars Goetia


Book Description

The Ars Goetia is one of the most notorious works of ritual occultism ever created. Originally part of a loose literary history dating to the 17th century, it was compiled with other material by Samuel MacGregor Mathers in 1904, forming the infamous "Lesser Keys of Solomon" or Lemegeton. Containing a list of seventy two demons, their seals, and the method by which they can be summoned by the Master, this book (for it is its own book) contains a fair mix of the bizarre along with its demonology, with grotesque descriptions of otherworldly beings constrained by King Solomon himself; those selfsame fiendish devils which, by his power, built the Temple of Jerusalem itself.

Goetia of Shadows


Book Description

GOETIA OF SHADOWS is a beautifully illustrated new way of working with Goetic Sorcery from a Luciferian perspective. Goetia is a word which depicts 'sorcery' and is derived from ancient Greek descriptions of those who raise the shades of the dead by evocation, from which the word 'howling' is associated with. The sorcerers would howl and wail at the tombs the very words of power which commanded the spirits to manifest around them. We see that the term goes "sorcerer" and psychagogos "soul-charmer" are associated with those who raise and gain power from the souls of the dead. The ancient rites of necromancy are the foundations and quite similar in approach to the Lemegethon and the original manuscripts. Goetic rites within this grimoire are focused on everyday mundane achievements within the world we live in. Knowledge, sex, power, revenge and defense are focused on here.




Daemonolatry Goetia


Book Description

Starts from the beginning of Goetia and discusses preparation, the creation of the circle, triangle of art, brass vessel, and sigils, discusses the invocations, then gives correspondences, Enns, Sigils, and additional insight into The Four Kings and the 72 Goetic Spirits.




Aleister Crowley's Illustrated Goetia


Book Description

"Goetia [refers to] all the operations of that Magick which deals with gross, malignant or unenlightened forces". Goetia is sometimes thought of as a wild card, something that can get out of control, something which expresses the operator's lower desires to control others and improve his own personal life. And, in fact, this potential loss of control, this danger, the desire for self improvement and great power is exactly what attracts many people to Goetia while horrifying and repelling others. Crowley's Goetia is brought to life with vivid illustrations of the demons. Commentary by DuQuette and Hyatt bring the ancient arts into the modern day.




Lemegeton


Book Description

Lemegeton, also known as The Lesser Key of Solomon the King or Clavicula Salomonis Regis, is a 17th century demonology Grimoire written by an anonymous author. It contains names of spirits/demons, other sacred names, sigils/seals, invocations and summoning techniques, spells, prayers, rituals and occult knowledge that has been obtained by the author, material which dates between the early 15th and the late 17th century. The Grimoire is divided in five parts called The Books. These are: Ars Goetia (or Goetia), Ars Theurgia Goetia (or Theurgia), Ars Paulina, Ars Almadel and Ars Notoria. Note from the Publisher: The illustrations in this book come from enhanced scans of the original seals. The scans have been painted over by hand using black ink and then re-scanned in order to improve the texture and make the lines and letters more legible, as some of the pages and illustrations of the book have deteriorated due to the manuscript's age, and they appear faded or broken. The original manuscript can be found in the British Museum.




The Book of Goetia, Or the Lesser Key of Solomon the King [Clavicula Salomonis]. Introductory Essay by Aleister Crowley.


Book Description

2010 Reprint of 1903 Edition. The Book of Goetia, or the Lesser Key of Solomon the King [Clavicula Salomonis]. Introductory essay by Aleister Crowley. The Lesser Key of Solomon or, Clavicula Salomonis, is an anonymous 17th-century grimoire, and one of the most popular books of demonology. It has also long been widely known as the Lemegeton. It appeared in the 17th century, but much was taken from texts of the 16th century and late-medieval grimoires. It is likely that books by Jewish kabbalists and Muslim mystics were also inspirations. Some of the material in the first section, concerning the summoning of demons, dates to the 14th century or earlier. The book claims that it was originally written by King Solomon, although this is certainly incorrect. The Lesser Key of Solomon contains detailed descriptions of spirits and the conjurations needed to invoke and oblige them to do the will of the conjurer (referred to as the "exorcist"). It details the protective signs and rituals to be performed, the actions necessary to prevent the spirits from gaining control, the preparations prior to the invocations, and instructions on how to make the necessary instruments for the execution of these rituals.




The mysteries of Goetia myth and truths


Book Description

I talk about mental constructions in this book of mine. How can we understand the human mind if we do not use a symbolic language where allegories, metaphors and parables are used. For this reason, many Greek thinkers and ancient civilizations from diverse cultures use these resources. In its mythological characters to try to explain a little the spiritual world. It is through models of gods, semi-gods, titans and all types of characters from mythologies, that we will be able to draw psychological profiles of the soul. This is what I want to talk about in this book. And it is very related to Enoch's messages in his book. He used completely figurative language to make us understand the corruption installed in consciousness. The fallen sentinels that Enoch reports on and the giants generated by them are nothing more than archetypes of mental structures generated and conceived by the ego involved in corruption. And it is in this dynamic that we can understand a little about this book, which is so obscure in its content. The search for conscience offers considerable risks and we must know all the possibilities of being led to build a whole world of iniquity within ourselves. Considering as a basis the egolatry that will manifest itself in all those who do not seek undeserved favor in divine grace in the search for conscience and take their own paths. These will undoubtedly become corrupt. And once they are corrupted, their power of judgment is also compromised. The soul exchanges between the spirit and life must be saved from spiritual deception. Soul is spirit, it is what moves life. The spirit has its designs and is a life project to be materialized. Man as a spirit brings intelligent planning as a life project. Everything traced in your DNA. Spiritual intelligence chose everything so that materiality would bring into existence what does not yet exist. In fact, it all starts in the spiritual realm.
