A cornerstone handbook of ceremonial magic, The Magus by Francis Barrett offers profound insight into the ancient arts and studies of demonology, alchemy, and astrology.

Weaving together the ancient wisdom of many rare grimoires and arcane texts on magical practices, Francis Barrett's The Magus embodies deep knowledge of witchcraft that would otherwise be lost. This complete grimoire explores the magical properties of stones, rituals, symbols, herbs, and more in an in-depth guide to the occult. From the hierarchy of devils to the power of crafting talismans, this timeless treasure trove of magical practise is both a practical manual and a source of deep spiritual insight.

This new edition of The Magus, first published in 1801, features an introduction to ancient magic by W. B. Yeats as well as an essay on the occult sciences by Rudolf Steiner. Encompassing the principles of natural magic, prophetic dreams, and ceremonial magic, this book is accompanied by the original engravings and plates of the first edition.
