Grand Grimoire
''The Grand Grimoire'' is a black magic grimoire. Different editions date the book to 1521, 1522 or 1421, but it was probably written during the early 19th century. Owen Davies suggests 1702 is when the first edition may have been created and a ''Bibliothèque bleue'' version (a popular edition, similar to a chapbook) of the text may have been published in 1750. The "introductory chapter" was authored by someone named Antonio Venitiana del Rabina who supposedly gathered his information from original writings of King Solomon. Much of material of this grimoire derives from the ''Key of Solomon'' and the ''Lesser Key of Solomon'', pseudepigraphical grimoires attributed to King Solomon. Also known as ''Le Dragon Rouge'' or ''The Red Dragon'', this book contains instructions purported to summon Lucifer or Lucifuge Rofocale, for the purpose of forming a Deal with the Devil. The 19th century French occultist Éliphas Lévi (author of ''Dogme et rituel de la haute magie'') claimed the co ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Barbatos
Barbatos is the 8th spirit named among the list of 72 demons in ''The Lesser Key of Solomon''. According to grimoire tradition, he holds the rank of Duke, and (like the demon Buer) may appear when the sun is in the sign of Sagittarius. When summoned, he appears "with four noble kings and their companions in great troops". Barbatos grants the ability to understand the spoken language of animals, such as the singing of birds and the barking of dogs. He reveals hidden treasures that have been concealed by the enchantment of magicians, gives knowledge of past and future events, and reconciles disputes between friends and those who hold power. Barbatos has 30 legions of spirits under his command, and once belonged to the angelic order of Virtues.Peterson, Joseph H. (2001), ''The Lesser Key of Solomon'' (p. 10), Weiser Books, . In the '' Grand Grimoire'', Barbatos is named as the 6th of the 18 spirits who serve the seven superior spirits, namely, he is under the command of Satanachi ...

Lucifer
Lucifer is one of various figures in folklore associated with the planet Venus. The entity's name was subsequently absorbed into Christianity as a name for the devil. Modern scholarship generally translates the term in the relevant Bible passage ( Isaiah 14:12), where the Greek Septuagint reads ὁ ἑωσφόρος ὁ πρωὶ, as "morning star" or "shining one" rather than as a proper noun, Lucifer, as found in the Latin Vulgate. As a name for the Devil in Christian theology, the more common meaning in English, "Lucifer" is the rendering of the Hebrew word he, הֵילֵל, hêlēl, label=none, (pronunciation: ''hay-lale'') in Isaiah given in the King James Version of the Bible. The translators of this version took the word from the Latin Vulgate, Originally published New York: The MacMillan Co., 1923. which translated by the Latin word (uncapitalized), meaning "the morning star", "the planet Venus", or, as an adjective, "light-bringing". As a name for the planet in it ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Pruflas
''Pseudomonarchia Daemonum'', or ''False Monarchy of Demons'', first appears as an Appendix to '' De praestigiis daemonum'' (1577) by Johann Weyer.Pseudomonarchia Daemonum (Liber officiorum spirituum); Johann Weyer, ed. Joseph Peterson; 2000. Available online aEsoteric Archives/ref> An abridgment of a grimoire similar in nature to the ''Ars Goetia'' (first book of ''The Lesser Key of Solomon''), it contains a list of demons, and the appropriate hours and rituals to conjure them. The ''Pseudomonarchia'' predates, and differs somewhat from, ''Ars Goetia''. The ''Pseudomonarchia'' lists sixty-nine demons (in contrast to the later seventy-two), and their sequence varies, along with some of their characteristics. The demon Pruflas appears only in ''Pseudomonarchia'',''The Lesser Key of Solomon'' add the demons Vassago, Seere, Dantalion, and Andromalius. and ''Pseudomonarchia'' does not attribute any sigils to the demons. Weyer referred to his source manuscript as ''Liber officiorum ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Aamon
Aamon (also known as Amon and Nahum), in demonology, is a Grand Marquis of Hell who governs 40 infernal legions, and the 7th spirit of the Goetia. He is the demon of life and reproduction. Description The names Aamon and Amon come from the god Amun or from the god Baal-hamon of Carthage. ''Nahum'' means "who induces to eagerness." According to the ''Dictionnaire Infernal'' by Collin de Plancy, he commands 40 legions of demons and carries the title of Prince. He's also an entity many looked to reconcile friends and foes, and procure love for those seeking it. The Egyptians viewed Amon or Amun as their supreme God; they represented him with the blue skin, in a rather human form. He was written about by Johann Wier in 1583 in the ''Pseudomonarchia daemonum''. "Amon, or Aamon, is a great and mighty marques, and commeth abroad in the likeness of a Wolf, having a serpents tail, omitingflames of fire; when he putteth on the shape of a man, he sheweth out dogs teeth, and a great he ...

Astaroth
Astaroth (also Ashtaroth, Astarot and Asteroth), in demonology, was known to be the Great Duke of Hell in the first hierarchy with Beelzebub and Lucifer; he was part of the evil trinity. He is known to be a male figure most likely named after the Near Eastern goddess Astarte. Background The name ''Astaroth'' was ultimately derived from that of 2nd millennium BC Phoenician goddess Astarte, an equivalent of the Babylonian Ishtar, and the earlier Sumerian Inanna. She is mentioned in the Hebrew Bible in the forms ''Ashtoreth'' (singular) and ''Ashtaroth'' (plural, in reference to multiple statues of it). This latter form was directly transliterated in the early Greek and Latin versions of the Bible, where it was less apparent that it had been a plural feminine in Hebrew. Appearances in literature The name "Astaroth" as a male demon is first seen in '' The Book of Abramelin'', purportedly written in Hebrew c. 1458, and recurred in most occult grimoires of the following centurie ...
