Greetings!

Thanks to the moderator for giving me this opportunity to discuss my new book "Secrets of the Magickal Grimoires." You can learn more at the book's homepage:

http://kheph777.tripod.com/indexsecrets.html

Briefly, the book is both an historical *and* practical overview of the medieval Solomonic tradition. The first part focuses on the history- tracing the development of religion and magick throughout Western history and culminating in the medieval grimoires. I compare the grimoires to older pagan and shamanic systems- presenting the grimoire wizard as urban shaman. The second part is entirely practical- teaching magickal timing, the making of Solomonic tools, establishment of ritual space, purifications and preparations, making invocations and conjurations, creating talismans and sigils, magickal images, Angelic and spirit evocation and TONS more.

At the webiste, you can read the first chapter of the book. There is also an "extra chapter" called "Modern Solomonic Magick", which I have published in the Journal of the Western Mystery Tradition:

http://www.jwmt.org/v1n10/modern.html

I'm also working on a companion grimoire to go with the book. It is just a supplimental piece that gathers the most practical material from the book and presents it as a cohesive system. I'll be uploading that to the files section of the Solomonic Yahoo Group. (Perhaps the moderator of Sacred Magick will put it in the archives here as well?)

I would LOVE to hear some discussion about "Secrets...", reviews, etc. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Aaron, I completely devoured your book since I've had it in my possession. Solomonic Magick has been my interest for the past couple of years and this book was simply amazing. It is what "The Book Of Black Magic" should have been. (I had been singing such praises of your book on Occultforums that I was mistaken for being you in disguise).

I had followed your old threads on the Abramelin Operation in the past and was quite surprised to hear a book had been published by you (loved that series, though I have still not yet pursued the operation).

Anyways, just wanted to say great job and keep up the good work I will be looking forward to your next volume.
