Aleister Crowley's Illustrated Goetia offers a modern perspective on the ancient magical text known as The Book of the Goetia of Solomon the King . The original work, edited and published by Aleister Crowley in 1904, is the first of five volumes of the Lemegeton magical texts. This modern edition combines Crowley's profound understanding of the Goetia with the expert interpretation and visual presentation of Lon Milo DuQuette, Christopher S. Hyatt, and David Wilson.

Contents:

• Colorful and detailed illustrations of demons that bring the characters in the text to life.
• Crowley's philosophical and magical innovations, such as the use of Enochian invocations in Goetian rituals.
• Commentaries by DuQuette and Hyatt that illuminate the significance of Goetia for modern occultism.

Theme:
Goetia deals with powers that are often considered uncontrollable, lowly, or dangerous. This book explores their use, the risks involved, and the appeal that is both frightening and fascinating. Crowley's simplified approach makes Goetia more understandable and practical for modern practitioners.

To whom:
This work is intended for students of the occult and magic who wish to gain a deeper understanding of the practices and philosophy of Goetia. It is particularly suitable for those who are interested in Crowley's work and wish to learn how to apply Goetia's principles in a modern setting.
