Hey, don't know if other people have seen this discrepancy between Donald Kraigs book "Modern Magick" and Konstantinos' book "Summoning Spirits", but if you observe the olympic sigils in both books you will find that in Konstantinos' book he gives the drawing of the sigils for Bethor, Phalegh, Och, Hagith. These appear mixed up compared to Kraigs book, (page 329), he gives the same sigils but not to the same olympic spirits. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hmm.gif) Interesting, one wonders if this is on purpose, or an oversight on the authors part. I tend to agree with Kraig however.

Hmm . . . I coulda sworn I'd replied to this.

Yes, MM has multiple mistake regarding Olympic spirits and thier seals.

Joe Peterson's site has a nice copy of the Arbatel. We should always check original sources when starting into new areas of magickal working. I don't believe his errors are in any way blinds (or are Kon's) . . . shit happens between authors, editors and publishers (and type-setters . . . even in the electronic age).

I have to agree here it is always good to cross check from different sources. Also learn to create your own sigels! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wizard.gif)
