Secrets of the Magickal Grimoires: The Classical Texts of Magick Deciphered                                                  

by Aaron Leitch

$57
 
 

The magickal practices and esoteric knowledge of medieval Europe form the foundation of modern ceremonial magick.  To truly understand medieval magick, one must decipher the repositories of this occult knowledge - the grimoires of spells, incantations, and ritual instructions for summoning spiritual entities (both celestial and infernal) for magickal purposes.

This groundbreaking guide examines Aprippa's Three Books of Occult Philosophy, and the Key of Solomon, the Lemegeton, The Book of Abramelin, Dee's Enochian diaries, and several other classical texts.  It compares the texts to one another, and then to other Pagan and tribal cultural practices - reaching a conclusion that may surprise you.
