The Book of the Goetia of Solomon the King, published by Aleister Crowley in 1904. The word Goetia comes from Medieval Latin and is a derivative of the Greek word for sorcery, (γοητεία), which refers to the practice of invoking angles or demons for the purpose of doing your bidding. Crowley’s edition includes notes and his famous illustrations of the 72 “Seals,” or symbols, for each of the 72 spirits that King Solomon was able to summon and control, as well as illustrations of Solomon’s hexagram, pentagram, magic disc, vessel of brass, etc. Crowley’s curse in Greek aimed at MacGregor Mathews is included, (and an English translation of it) as well as all of the invocations, and translations into English, of the invocations in the Angelic, (or magical) tongue which are derived from a 17th-century grimoire, The Lesser Key of Solomon.
This edition is unabridged but has been designed in such a way as to make the understanding of the text more easy. It has been recently re-formatted for compatibility and a fully-functional table of contents so purchase with confidence...
