The Key of Zev ben Avram --- (First Edition - Published by Fall of Man in 2020). From the publisher: In every generation, the burden must be taken up anew. Ceremonial magic is by its nature an art defined by mysticism and mystery, which is to say, by obfuscation.

This is doubly true of goetia, with its frightening demonic drama and its grandiose claims. The impenetrable allegories, the coy vagueness, the secrets and initiations, the smoke-and-mirrors. These things are integral to the sorcery, they are part of what makes it work, and so they cannot be lightly tossed aside to assuage a skeptical public. All sorcerers are liars, and there is good reason for it.

But the fact remains that our society is gluttonous for information, and that magicians and would-be magicians have as much share in the gluttony as anyone else. At some point, someone must pull back the curtain and account for what is actually going on, at least to some extent.

There is a demand for understanding, and so there will be a supply. If the understanding does not come in the form of lucid truth, then it will come in the form of fraudulent nonsense, or else in the form of a sneering dismissal: it's all charlatanry and crankery. The nature of the craft must be explained in the idiom of the day, or else the craft as a whole will suffer the consequences. This is where The Key of Zev ben Avram comes in. Devoid of any unnecessary prose, this quintessential grimoire delves directly into the specifics of 72 demons, each with its own sigil and detailed description, in a highly practical way. This grand catalogue of Goetic Spirits is the heart of the book , followed by explicit instructions about the necessary tools and rituals to work with the spirits described within it.

Although far from the Solomonic demons, which are among the mightiest servitors of hell, the entities introduced in this grimoire are less awful in their wrath, proving easier to work with and bind them to one's will.

The books we offer expand numerous occult topics. The following are short definitions of some of them.

The definition of occult simply means hidden or unseen. The occult books we offer deal with what may be termed spiritual occultism. Dealing with the hidden, the unseen realms of spirits and spiritual energy. This spelling for magic with a "K" was used by Aleister Crowley to define spiritual magick as opposed to mundane magic, such as pulling rabbits out of your top hat.

Magick deals with spiritual forces within yourself and within the universe. Historically, witchcraft was seen as a diabolical pact with the Devil. We've all heard of the witches riding to the sabbats on their broomsticks after anointing themselves with magical oils where they would dance and fornicate with the Devil and his homeboys. Today, however, witchcraft is not seen in the same light. Can incorporate some dark spiritual aspects, such as the modern.

Like in traditional witchcraft, herbs, oils, bones, dirt, colors, sigils and darker spirits are employed for tasks.

Necromancers usually employ human skulls, bones, and other items of the grave in their dark arts. Books of ritual magic instruction are usually termed grimoires.
