Gorgeous book; I wish BLP's books wouldn't get scratched tho as some of mines do like for Agrippas 4 books. The covers are so easy to scratch with this publisher. Here I can see the scratches on your center piece and also on the spine of the book. As someone who started collecting (heavily inspired by your channel) books, it's nice to have them mint-condition. Hopefully they fix this for future prints and books, since we do pay for value. Also, less expensive books I own don't scratch like such.

Great review as usual. This looks like a wonderful book. I'm curious that since it draws from so many sources does it include the "Headless Rite" as a preliminary to the conjurations, an invocation that I think is unique only to the Mathers/Crowley edition, assumed (I believe accurately) added by Crowley? Also, I think I know the answer but is this an edition that one would want to bring in to the circle for an operation or more of a beautiful and very informative reference guide to the Goetia that should be handled with care and may not be so practical for actual work? Thanks again!

@FoolishFishBooks 10 дней назад

Crowley's method for conjuration is not detailed here, only his introduction. Methods from several other sources are included.

No it's pretty but a poor translation, go with joseph petersons translation.

It sure packs a TON of info from several sources into its smallish size. And the multiple descriptions are organized in a very logical and user-friendly way. This is a beautiful version of this classic grimoire; very glad to have it! Thanks for the deeper dive, Denis!!

So does he give the corrected hierarchy instead of the blind version?

@FoolishFishBooks 10 дней назад

I'm afraid I don't understand what you're asking.

@angelorosini4326 10 дней назад

@@FoolishFishBooks the correct hierarchy wasn't givin instead a blind was placed. The three chiefs and correct 4 kings wasn't givin on purpose so the system wouldn't work proper. This is common knowledge JSK, Dr. Cummins, Julio Ody etc. All have written on this. The correct hierarchy and spirit catalog is found in The Book of Oberon.

@FoolishFishBooks 10 дней назад

@@angelorosini4326 Right! :) BLP have not set out to change the texts, or give their (or others') opinions on what the texts SHOULD have said, just to give us the unaltered original texts, which they've done to the delight of many, and it seems, the disapointment of at least one, I assume? Luckily we have Daniel Harms' recent edition of the Book of Oberon to cover the issue you mention. 🙏 It's an interesting thread for anyone reading who should decide to pull on it, but of course it's also worth mentioning that just like Mathers' inaccurate Abramelin, the hierarchy listed in Ars Goetia has worked just fine for countless practitioners for centuries as is. This point notwithstanding, more accuracy is obviously preferable to less. Thank you for bringing it up!

I was debating this one but the video you made pushed me over the edge. I really wanted to see how clear the sigils were along with the text. I do wish BLP made their books a tad larger but the content is undisputed.

@FoolishFishBooks 5 дней назад

Yes, the sigils are definitely clear, they've done a stellar job at cleaning them up!

@gastonmarian7261 10 дней назад

If you don't have enough magical experience to understand the advice, you're better off just trusting the advice of someone who does have that experience If you're walking around one day, and a random thought crosses your mind, "I'm worthless", then your conscious awareness can catch the thought, recognize it as false and unhelpful, and dismiss it. As a gross exaggeration for demonstration purposes, if you put in headphones before bed that play "I'm worthless" on a loop all night, that will seep into your subconscious and be much more difficult to dismiss. Thoughts arise out of emotions. Emotions arise out of energy. This is one reason you meditate, training your awareness to watch where your thoughts and then emotions arise out of. If there exists a metaphysical force, an energy that radiates around the concepts of the ars goetia, then it can influence that deepest level of energy, which then bubbles up as emotions, and bubbles up again now not just a thought, but whole narratives that are unhelpful to your well being. It's like exposing yourself to radioactive material. Do you need to know exactly how the radiation will ionize your DNA in order to trust the physicist telling you not to eat the radium watch hands? No, of course not. If you care, study for a decade and become a physicist yourself so that you can understand how the stories we tell about physics (say, atoms with electrons in circular, concentric orbits) actually manifest in real life. If you don't know physics and choose to ignore the advice of trained physicists, you eat that radium at your own peril. The one thing you can't say is that you were never warned, because you have been

Can you name the 5 books of the goetia please.

@FoolishFishBooks 11 дней назад

I guess you mean the 5 books from the Lesser Key of Solomon. Ars Goetia, Ars Theurgia Goetia, Ars Paulina, Ars Almadel, Ars Notoria.

@g.septentrionis609 10 дней назад

Without wishing to sound, … arsey, I suppose, none of the books of Lemegeton are really called 'ars' anything. I blame Wikipedia. In the title pages of all the nine or so extant manuscripts (complete or partial) the names of the books are simply Goetia, Theurgia Goetia, the Pauline Art, Almadel (Almadee in one instance, Ars Almadel Solomonis in another) and Artem Novem or the Notory Art (Ars Notoria in two instances). Internal titles refer only to the 'art Goetia', 'art Theurgia Goetia', 'Art Pauline', 'Art Almadel' ('Solomon's Almadel Art' in one case) and 'Notory Art' (Ars Notoria in one instance). In particular I think it is important to differentiate between the Lemegeton's Pauline Art and the earlier Latin Ars Paulina (a variation on the Ars Notoria and completely different to what's in the Lemegeton) and the Lemegeton's Almadel and the Latin Ars Almadel (substantially different to the seventeenth century English version) in order to avoid possible confusion netween the different texts. As for my (unsolicited) opinion of the BLP book, the presentation is lovely but after reading I found it a terrible waste of an opportunity to produce something fresh or innovative. Put another way I think the editor Arsed it up. [that's enough 'ars' puns: - ed.]
