Summoning Spirits

Konstantinos, author of Nocturnal Witchcraft and Speak with the Dead, wrote this as a complete course in evocation, the ceremonial art of calling spirits to visible presence. The training is laid out in order. Early chapters classify the nature of entities and build the magician's fundamentals, then work through the opening rituals, the magical implements and their consecration, all adapted from the Golden Dawn lineage the author trained in, including the consecration rituals for the wand, the water cup and the air dagger. A chapter of magical theory explains what evocation is doing before the reader attempts it, distinguishing evocation to the astral plane from evocation to the physical plane and giving full workings for both. The book's center is its catalog of fifty entities to evoke, drawn from the goetic tradition with their offices and the purposes they are called for. A closing section teaches egregore creation, the building of a spirit from scratch, which few books address at all. Direct, practical and aimed at the solo practitioner working with ordinary means.
