This book is a milestone in Western magical practice. Often erroneously called a forgery it is in fact six separate books in one the first two being by Agrippa (1486-1535) One of them Of Magical Ceremonies is Agrippa's clearest step-by-step formulation of how to perform an evocation much more openly expressed than in his Three Books of Occult Philosophy. In addition there is the key grimoire Of the Magick of theAncients by Arbatel which clearly defines the different types of magic focusing on the invocation of angels and the Olympic spirits. The Heptameron by Peter De Abano is a complete self-contained set of instructions for conjuration of spirits according to the day of the week. Also included is Villinganus' work on the nature of spirits illusions prophecies and miracles and how they may be used. Two complete geomancies (one by Agrippa) complete the volume which has been reset in modern type and edited with a commentary by Stephen Skinner.

Hardback. Etat : Good. The Fourth Book of Occult Philosophy, by Henry Cornelius Agrippa and unnamed others, is considered one of the cornerstones of Western magic, and the grimoires it contains are among the most important that exist in the Western tradition. For more than three hundred years, this mysterious tome has been regarded as difficult or even impossible to understand--until now. Occult scholar Donald Tyson presents a fully annotated, corrected, and modernized edition of Stephen Skinner's 1978 facsimile edition of the original work, which was six tracts published as one volume in 1655. For the first time, these classic works of Western magic have been rendered fully accessible to the novice practitioner, as well as occult scholars and skilled magicians. Tyson presents clear instruction and practical insight on a variety of magic techniques, providing contemporary magicians with a working grimoire of the arcane. - Astrology - History - Geomancy - Ceremonial Magic - The Nature of Spirits, Angels, and Demons - Geomantic Astronomy - Necromancy - Invocation and Evocation of Spirits.
