The Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage by Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers

Description

The Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage is a book by Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers, first published in 1900. This edition contains Books I, II, and III, encompassing a remarkable grimoire that was skillfully translated by Mathers from a 15th-century French manuscript. The text holds significant influence over contemporary ceremonial magic and has been recognized as a primary inspiration for Aleister Crowley. Abraham of Würzburg, a knowledgeable scholar of magic and a cabalist, recounts a quest for hidden teachings that led him to Egypt. It was there that he encountered the enigmatic magician Abramelin, who imparted a detailed system of magic to him. The procedure outlined in this grimoire entails extensive months of purification, followed by the invocation of both benevolent and malevolent spirits to achieve various earthly objectives. These include the acquisition of treasures and love, the ability to traverse the realms of air and water, and even the conjuring of ethereal armies. Moreover, it reveals secrets such as raising the deceased, altering one's appearance, attaining invisibility, and even conjuring storms. Central to this system are a set of extraordinary magic squares, sigils composed of mystical words that can often be read in multiple directions.
