The Ars Goetia, often referred to as the first section of a larger grimoire called “The Lesser Key of Solomon,” is a significant work in Western occultism and ceremonial magic. This grimoire dates back to the 17th century and is attributed to King Solomon, a legendary figure associated with wisdom and magic in various religious traditions.
The Ars Goetia specifically focuses on the summoning and invocation of 72 Spirits, Jinns, demons, each associated with a specific seal and a unique set of powers. We will learn detailed instructions on how to evoke and invoke these spirits for various purposes, such as acquiring knowledge, wealth, or power. This series will look into the complexities of summoning and interacting with these supernatural entities.
