The Sacred Magic Of Abramelin The Mage Book 1

Book: The Sacred Magic Of Abramelin The Mage Book 1 by Abramelin The Mage

Volume I of The Book of the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage.

The Book of Abramelin tells the story of an Egyptian mage named Abramelin, or Abra-Melin, who taught a system of magic to Abraham of Worms, a German Jew presumed to have lived from c.1362 - c.1458. The system of magic from this book regained popularity in the 19th and 20th centuries due to the efforts of Mathers' translation, The Book of the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage, its import within the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, and later within the mystical system of Thelema (created in 1904 by Aleister Crowley).

Unfortunately, Mathers used the least-reliable manuscript copy as the basis for his translation, and it contains many errors and omissions. The later English translation by Georg Dehn and Steven Guth, based on the earliest and most complete sources, is more scholarly and comprehensive. Dehn attributed authorship of The Book of Abramelin to Rabbi Yaakov Moelin (Hebrew ca. 1365–1427), a German Jewish Talmudist.

Structure of the book

The grimoire is framed as a sort of epistolary novel or autobiography in which Abraham of Worms describes his journey from Germany to Egypt and reveals Abramelin's magical and Kabbalistic secrets to his son Lamech. Internally the text dates itself to the year 1458.

The story involves Abraham of Worms passing his magical and Kabbalistic secrets on to his son, and tells how he acquired his knowledge. Abraham recounts how he found Abramelin the Mage living in the desert outside an Egyptian town, Arachi or Araki, which borders the Nile. Abramelin's home sat atop a small hill surrounded by trees. He was an Egyptian mage and taught a powerful form of Kabbalistic magic to Abraham. He was a "venerable aged man", and very courteous and kind. He discussed nothing but "the Fear of God", leading a well-regulated life, and the evils of the "acquisition of riches and goods."

Abramelin extracted a promise from Abraham that he would give up his "false dogmas" and live "in the Way and Law of the Lord." He then gave Abraham two manuscript books to copy for himself, asking for ten gold florins, which he took with the intention of distributing to seventy-two poor persons in Arachi. Upon his return fifteen days later, after having disposed of the payment money, Abramelin extracted an oath from Abraham to "serve and fear" the Lord, and to "live and die in His most Holy Law." After this, Abramelin gave Abraham the "Divine Science" and "True Magic" embedded within the two manuscripts, which he was to follow and give to only those whom he knew well.

Origin of the manuscript

The book exists in the form of six manuscripts and an early printed edition. The provenance of the text has not been definitively identified. The earliest manuscripts are two versions that date from about 1608, are written in German and are now found in Wolfenbuttel Another two manuscripts are in Dresden, and date from about 1700 and 1750 respectively.

The first printed version, also in German, dates to 1725 and was printed in Cologne by Peter Hammer. A partial copy in Hebrew is found in the Bodleian Library in Oxford, and dates from around 1740. A manuscript copy existed in French in the Bibliotheque de l'Arsenal in Paris, an institution founded in 1797. The French copy has since disappeared, but is available on microfilm.

All German copies of the text consist of four books: an autobiographical account of the travels of Abraham of Worms to Egypt, a book of assorted materials from the corpus of the practical Kabbalah (including some which is duplicated in the German-Jewish grimoire called "The Sixth and 7th Books of Moses") and the two books of magic given by Abramelin to Abraham. The well-known English translation by S.L. MacGregor Mathers from the French Manuscript in Paris contains only three of the four books. The Hebrew version in Oxford is limited to Book One, without reference to the further books.

Of all the extant sources, the German manuscripts in Wolfenbuttel and Dresden are taken by scholars to be the authoritative texts. According to respected Kabbalah scholar Gershom Scholem, the Hebrew version in Oxford was translated into Hebrew from German. An analysis of the spelling and language usage in the French manuscript indicates that it dates to the 18th century, and that it was also likely copied from a German original. Although the author quotes from the Jewish Book of Psalms, the version given is not from the Hebrew; rather, it is from the Latin Vulgate, a translation of the Bible employed by Roman Catholics at that time.

The German esoteric scholar Georg Dehn has argued that the author of The Book of Abramelin was Rabbi Yaakov Moelin (Hebrew 1365–1427), a German Jewish Talmudist and posek (authority on Jewish law). (ref Georg Dehn, The Book of Abramelin: A New Translation, transl. by Steven Guth, Ibis Publishing, 2006)

Magic word squares

The practical magic of Abramelin (found in both Book III of the French text, and Book IV of the German original) centers around a set of talismans composed of magic word squares. These are similar to traditional magic squares, though the latter are usually composed of numbers, while Abramelin's squares contain letters. Commonly word squares are used as puzzles or as teaching aids for students. In the context of Abramelin, the focus becomes mystical—so that each square should contain words or names that relate to the magical goal of the square. A parallel is found in the famous Sator Arepo Tenet Opera Rotas word square, an altered version of which is also found among Abramelin's squares.

For example, a square entitled "To walk under water for as long as you want" contains the word MAIAM, the Hebrew and Arabic word for "water". A square for recovering treasures of jewelry begins with the word TIPHARAH (a variant of Tiferet), which can mean "golden ring" in Hebrew and is also the name of the sphere of "Beauty" on the Kabbalistic Tree of Life.

Book: The Picatrix The Goal Of The Wise Planetary Talismanic Magic by Steven Ashe

The Planetary Magic of the Picatrix. Very rare teaching volume of the Fraternity of the Sanctum Regnum. A complete grimoire of Planetary Magic from The Picatrix. The elements of the practical planetary magic of The Picatrix are presented here from a new translation. The Nature and theory of the Planetary powers. The Incenses of the Planets and accompanying invocations The Invocations of the Planetary powers according to the Picatrix. The knowledge and conversation of the heavenly powers. The Planetary aphorisms of Al-Babel The planets and their astral images. This work creates a practical grimoire of planetary magic selected from all four books of the Picatrix.

Each aspect of lore is referenced according to its place within the original text. This version takes into account the colloquialisms of the Arabic original and improves upon extant translations. From the Magical curriculum of the Fraternity of the Sanctum Regnum.

Picatrix is a grimoire (grammar) of the Art of Magic & Astrological Lore written around 1200 A.D. offering talismanic and astrological guidance. The Picatrix was a primary source for 'alchemic scholars' such as Michael Scot. The book had a major influence on later West European magical thinking from Marsilio Ficino in the 1400s, Cornelius Agrippa, Thomas Campanella, Dr John Dee and Paracelsus in addition to the anonymous authors of magical grammars such as the Key of Solomon. The edition in the British Library passed through several hands: Simon Forman, Richard Napier, Elias Ashmole and William Lilly. Presented in the original Arabic, the talismanic property of this work will be of interest to specialist collectors of seminal grimoires & Golden Dawn source works. Reproduced in the original authentic Arabic.

Silver Spell

Silver Spell Cover Money and Prosperity
______________________
by Scott Cunningham


In bygone times physical objects of genuine worth were used as money;
precious gems, an ingot of pure copper, a gold bar, a silver dollar. In
today's world, money is usually artificial. Governments print pictures
and numerals on pieces of paper. We all agree that paper money is worth
specific amounts and can be traded for hard physical goods and
services. Similarly, virtually worthless metals are covered with thin
films of copper and silver, and then stamped with more numbers and
pictures. Some countries even mint aluminum coins.

If we agreed that these bits of paper represent $10 or $100, then it
must be apparent that money is a state of mind. A being alien to our
planet faced with $10,000,000 in U.S. currency wouldn't see the wealth,
but simply etchings and meaningless symbols.

This is important - wealth and prosperity are states of mind. All the
money spells in the world won't bring us more wealth until we've
learned to stop fearing money and its attendant responsibilities. So
before trying the following ritual, change your mind about money. If
you truly need money, try to WANT it as well. If you simply want money,
see how you genuinely NEED it too, how it can help improve your life
and those of your loved ones.

Accept money into Your Life even before you have it. Ready yourself to
receive it. Welcome it with open arms. Then begin.

A SILVER SPELL
____________________

This ritual takes a week to perform.

Situate a small bowl of any material in a place of prominence in your
home, somewhere you pass by every day. Each day for seven days put one
dime into the bowl.

Next, obtain a green candle. This can be any shade of green. Buy it at
a candle shop, an occult supply store, a hardware store or a
supermarket. It can be a votive, a taper or a columnar candle.

Before you begin, fix in your mind the idea that you are a prosperous
person. See money as being no problem. Imagine money coming to you as
you need it.

Place the bowl of dimes, the green candle and a holder on a flat
surface. Hold the candle in your hands and feel the power of money.
Feel the avenues that open to you when you have it. Sense the energy
within money which we as human beings have given to it. Place the
candle in the holder. Pour the seven dimes into your left hand (or
right hand if you are left-handed). You will create a circle
surrounding the candle with the dimes. Place the first dime directly
before the candle. As you place it say the following or similar words:
Money flow,
Money shine;
Money grow,
Money's mine.

Repeat this six more times until you've created a circle around the
candle with seven gleaming dimes. As you say the words and place the
dimes, know that you're not just reciting and fooling around with
pieces of metal. You're working with POWER - That Which we've given
money as well as that which is within yourself. Words too have energy,
as does the breath on which they ride.

When you've completed this, light the candle. Don't just flick a Bic
lighter; strike a match and touch its tip to the wick. As it picks up
the fire, sputters, melts and rises to a shining flame, see money
energy burning there. See the power of money flowing out from the seven
dimes up to the candle's flame and then out to the atmosphere.

Blow out the match, discard it in a heat-proof container, and settle
down before the glowing candle and money. Sense the feeling of money in
your life. Visualize (see with your mind's eye) a life with money to
spare - a life in which bills are quickly paid and money will never
again be a problem.

See yourself wisely spending money, investing it for your future needs.
See money as an unavoidable and Beautiful aspect of your life.

Kill off any thought of debt, of taxes, of doubts that you can achieve
this change. Simply see what will be.

After ten minutes or so, leave the area. Let the candle burn itself out
in the holder (don't use a wooden one). Afterward, collect the dimes,
place them back in the bowl, and "feed" it a few coins every day from
then on.

Money will come to you.
