Product Description
by Adam Iniquity (Illustrator), Michael W. Ford (Author)
The Full Color illustrated edition, a splendid representation of many Goetic Spirits based on their Solomonic attributions and prestige. An excellent foundation of Luciferian sorcery and ideology in a pragmatic paradigm of thought.GOETIA OF SHADOWS is an updated, advanced and Luciferian pragmatic grimoire for the modern practitioner. This edition of the Lemegethon applies medieval sorcery techniques to the modern, Luciferian Mind to bring forth measurable results in this world now. This edition contains stunning color art of Lucifer and Amaimon, both added along with Beelzebub to the Lemegethon for the first time. GOETIA OF SHADOWS is a beautifully illustrated new way of working with Goetic Sorcery from a Luciferian perspective. Goetia is a word which depicts 'sorcery' and is derived from ancient Greek descriptions of those who raise the shades of the dead by evocation, from which the word 'howling' is associated with. The sorcerers would howl and wail at the tombs the very words of power which commanded the spirits to manifest around them. We see that the term goes "sorcerer" and psychagogos "soul-charmer" are associated with those who raise and gain power from the souls of the dead. The ancient rites of necromancy are the foundations and quite similar in approach to the Lemegethon and the original manuscripts. Goetic rites within this grimoire are focused on everyday mundane achievements within the world we live in. Knowledge, sex, power, revenge and defense are focused on here.
Author Biography
The author of over twelve books, Luciferian Philosophy and Magick practitioner, researcher, artist and musician Michael W. Ford is the author of numerous left hand path books including MASKIM HUL - Babylonian Magick, LUCIFERIAN WITCHCRAFT, THE BIBLE OF THE ADVERSARY, LIBER HVHI - MAGICK OF THE ADVERSARY, GATES OF DOZAK - BOOK OF THE WORM, SATANIC MAGICK - A PARADIGM OF THERION, FIRST BOOK OF LUCIFERIAN TAROT, BEGINNING LUCIFERIAN MAGICK, BOOK OF THE WITCH MOON, ADAMU, MAGICK OF THE ANCIENT GODS - Chthonic Paganism and the Left Hand Path, RITES OF THE ANTICHRIST - Art of the Adversary, AKHKHARU - Vampyre Magick with many more articles and out of print titles. MICHAEL W. FORD has been a practicing Luciferian and Satanist/Sethanist for over 16 years. Mr. Ford's path has led him through an initiatory system which has both inspired and changed the life for many individuals. Originally focused on obscure, "hit and run" left hand path booklets Ford's approach to magick was from a luciferian point of view. Soon after, the demand for his works sky rocketed and Luciferian Witchcraft was published. Soon after, the obscure and hard to get published "Book of the Witch Moon" was published in a final edited edition to numerous acclaim. With the further development of THE ORDER OF PHOSPHORUS, Ford understood his role was changing and he would have to adapt from solitary practitioner to someone who could explain a growing ideology which is totally separate from Judeo-Christian and modern ceremonial magick structures. The Bible of the Adversary drew together the trans-cultural perspective of the various aspects of the luciferian spirit, utilizing various workings which would allow the adept to enter the depths of darkness and ascend with the wisdom gained from it.
