Yet few have ‘ctually worked the system, belleving one must conform blindly to the archaic procedures and long ‘winded conjurations ofthe original text. But Crowley attitude toward the Goetia appears to have been diferent His masterful expansion and perfection of the "Preliminary Invocation of the Goetia® {Liber Samek Theuraia Gaeta Summa (Congressus Cum Daemone) sub hurd DCCC} i a prime example. ‘Ars Goetiaor Goetia Is a practice, that Includes the conjuration of demons. The Ancient ‘Greek word yoneia (gostela) means “charm, Jugglery, sorcery, from yong (gd8s) "sorcerer, wizard” (plural: vonrec géetes). The meaning of “sorcerer is attested In a scholion, or commentary, referring to the Dactyi, a mythical race, stating that according to Pherecydes of Syros and Hellanicus of Lesbos, those to the lef are gostes, while those to the night are delverers from sorcery. The word may beultimately derived from the verb yobu “groan, bevall” (god). Derivative terme are yorreuua "a charm (gosteuma, plural yorreius "to bewitcn, Beguile”(goetetd). Fnreia was a term for the magic in the Greco-Roman world. Its Latinized form is godt; in the 16th century, English adopted it as goece or goety (and the adjectival form goetc), via French godt. During the Renaissance, goetio was sometimes contrasted with magia, as “evil magic” vs. “good magic™ fr "natural magic, or sometimes with theurgy. Henrich Cornelius Agrippa, in his Three Books of Occult Phuosophy, writes °Now the parts of ceremonial magic are goetia and theurgia. Goetia is unfortunate, BY the commerces of unclean spits mace up of the rites of wicked cursities, unawful charms, and eprecations and Is abandoned and execrated by alas." ‘The most obvious source forthe Ars Goetia Is Johann Weyer's Pseudomonarchia Daemonum in his De pracstigis daemonum. Weyer dose not cte, and is unaware of, any other books in the Lemegeton, Indieating that the Lemegeton was derived from his work, not the other way around. The order of the spits changed between the two, four addtional spins were added to the later work, and one spirt (Prufis) "was omitted. The ‘omission of Pruflas, @ mistake that also occurs "In an edition (of Pseudomonarchia Daemonum cited in Reginald Scot's The Discoverie of Witchcraft, Indicates that {he Ars Goetia could not have bees complied before 1570. Indeed, Ie appears that the Ars Gaeta Is more ‘dependent upon Sco’ transition of Weyer than on Weyer’s work in Rsell. Adationally, some material ame from Helnrien Cornelis Agrippa's Three Books of Occult Philosophy, the Heptameron by Pseudo- Pietro dAbano, and the Magical Calendar. Weyer's Offcium Spirtuum, which is likely related to a 1583 manuscript titled The Office of Spins, ‘appears to have ultimately been’ an elaboration on a. Isth-century manuserist tiled Le Uvre. des Esprits (30 of the 47 spirits are nearly identical to spits in the Ars Goats). In a slightly later copy made by Thomas Rudd (1583%-1656), this portion was labelled “Liber Malorum Spirtuum seu Goetia, and the seals and demons were paired with those of the 72 angels of the Shem HaMephorash whieh were intended to protect the conjurer and to control the demons he summoned. The ‘angelic names and seals derived from a manuscrpt by Blase de Vigenére, whose papers were also used bby Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers (1854-1918) in his works for the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn (1887-1903), Rudd may have derived his copy of Liber Malorum Spintuum from a now-lost work by Johannes Tthemius, who taught Agrippa, who In turn taught Weyer ‘This portion of the work was later translated by Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers and published by Aleister Crowley in 1504 under the title The Book of the Goetia of Solomen the King. Crowley added some adcktonal invocations previously Unrelatee to the original work (Including some evocations In the Enochian language), as well as essays describing the etuals as psychological exploration instead. of ‘demon summoning = ea, [Source: Wikipedia - The Lesser Key of Soloman & List of demons inthe Ars Goetia} x THE BOOK OF THE GOETIA OF SOLOMON THE KING ‘TRANSLATED INTO THE ENGLISH TONGUE BY A ‘DEAD HAND AND [ADORNED WITH DIVERS OTHER MATTERS GERMANE DELIGHTFUL TO THE WISE ‘THE WHOLE EDITED, VERIFIED, INTRODUCED AND COMMENTED ev ALEISTER CROWLEY SOCIETY FOR THE PROPAGATION OF RELIGIOUS TRUTH BOLESKINE, FOYERS, INVERNESS, 1908EMIKAAOYMAI ZE TON EN TA KENEA NNEYMATL, AEINON, AOPATON, MANTOKPATOPA, QEON QEOY, OQEPONOION, KAI EPMONOION, O MIZAN (OIKIAN EYETAQOYEAN, OF E=EBPAQHE Ek GF AITYITTIOY KAI XOPAS.

What Is the cause af my llusion of seeing a spirit in the triangle of Ar? Every smatterer, every expert in psychology, wll answer: "That cause lls in your bain.” English children (pace the Education Act) are taught that the Universe lis in infinite Space; Hindu children, in the Akaca, which is the same thing Those Europeans who go alittle deeper learn from Fichte, that the phenomenal Universe is the creation of the E99; indus, oF Europeans studying under Hindu Gurus, are tld, that by Akaca 's mean the Chitakaca.

Magical phenomns, however, come under a special sub-class, since they are willed, and their cause is the series of “real” DDhenomena called the operations af ceremonial Mage ‘These consist of: (2) Sight. = The crce, square, tangle, vessels, lamps, rabes, implements, ete.

Its projection back Into the apparently phenomenal world Is therefore unusualHerein then consists the reality of the operations and effects of ceremonial magic!51 and I conceive that the apology is ample, so far as the “effets” refer only to those phenomena which appear to the magician himsel, the appearance of the spn, his conversation, possible shacks from imprudence, and so on, even fo ecstasy on the one hand, and death or madness on the other. ‘But can any of the effects described in this our book Goetia be obtained, and if so, can you give a rational explanation of the ‘lrcumstances?
