The Key of Solomon the King
Book Hero Magic created this recommendation. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! IS THIS YOUR NEXT READ?
The Key of Solomon the King is the most famous, or infamous, of all magick books. It has influenced everything from the revival of magick and the Western Mystery Traditions (tarot, alchemy, astrology etc.) to fictional works such as Lovecraft's The Necronomicon.
Purported to have been penned by King Solomon himself (doubtful - probably a pseudonymous account), the book provides instruction for incantations, rituals, and sigils used to call upon and control spirits and demons. Those practising magick have used it extensively through the centuries, but its true origins have been lost in the mists of time.
No library of the contemporary occult student or practising magician is complete without this tome. It remains a standard of esoteric lore by which others are measured.
This edition includes a new foreword by noted esoteric scholar, Joseph Peterson.
