Magic; Occultism
Figure 173 is an Egyptian design which would show an analogy between the
symbol and the idea of the force of the creation.
Figure 174 is a stele from Phœnicia somewhat similar to the others,
except that the rudimentary caducei in Figures 166 and 170 are here
replaced by two roughly drawn Ionic columns.
These last three designs are taken from the work of the Chevalier Emile
Soldi-Colbert de Beaulieu, on the “_Langue Sacrée_.”
In Figure 175 is given the Seal of the Spirit HALAHEL. This Spirit is
said to be under the rule of BAEL, and to be of a mixed nature, partly
good and partly evil, like the spirits of Theurgia-Goetia which follow
in the second book of the Lemegeton.
THE OTHER MAGICAL REQUISITES.
The other magical requisites are: a sceptre, a sword, a mitre, a cap, a
long white robe of linen, and other garments for the purpose;[32] also a
girdle of lion’s skin three inches broad, with all the names written
about it which be round the outmost part of the Magical Circle. Also
perfumes, and a chafing-dish of charcoal kindled to put the fumes on, to
smoke or perfume the place appointed for action; also anointing oil to
anoint thy temples and thine eyes with; and fair water to wash thyself
in. And in so doing, thou shalt say as David said:
THE ADORATION AT THE BATH.
“Thou shalt purge me with hyssop, O Lord! and I shall be clean: Thou
shalt wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.”
And at the putting on of thy garments thou shalt say: THE ADORATION AT
THE INDUING OF THE VESTMENTS.
“By the figurative mystery of these holy vestures (or of this holy
vestment) I will clothe me with the armour of salvation in the strength
of the Most High, ANCHOR; AMACOR; AMIDES; THEODINIAS; ANITOR; that my
desired end may be effected through Thy strength, O ADONAI! unto Whom
the praise and glory will for ever and ever belong! Amen!”
After thou hast so done, make prayers unto God according unto thy work,
as Solomon hath commanded.
Footnote 32:
In many Codices it is written “a sceptre or sword, a mitre or cap.” By
the “other garments” would be meant not only under-garments, but also
mantles of different colours.
