Description
Published in 1964 by Helios Book Service, this edition of The Magus by Francis Barrett was released in 9 volumes, each limited to only 200 copies. Part III – The Constellatory Practice, or Talismanic Magic is the 5th volume of the Rare Text Library of Philosophical Research series.
“The Magus” was first published in 1801 and is now recognized as one of the most influential works of the “Occult Revival” and probably the best-known magical text produced in nineteenth century Britain. At the time of the publication of this series “The Magus” was long out of print, with early editions difficult to find and selling for a premium. The idea behind the new edition was to make the most important sections of the text – each complete within itself – available in a durable form at an affordable price. It was a monumental task, with the text having to be completely retyped, and the tables redone – only the original diagrams were copied as facsimiles. This volume reprints the whole of Part II of Book I of the original text which is devoted to Talismanic Magic. The publisher described is as comprising “Correspondence and Images for the 10 Sephiroth of the Qabalistic Tree of Life and a description of the images associated with the 28 Mansions of the Moon. The section also contains a description of the way in which talismans may be made, that is the way in which particular objects may be made to hold a particular form of psychic energy.
Other volumes in the series available from Dark Star Magick include:
The Stone of the Philosophers: The First Matter
The Secret Commonwealth of Elves, Fauns and Faeries
