A#o$t this Co%pilation
This is a compilation of the manuscripts provided in the translation of The +a'ical Treatise of
Solomon or )y'romantiea by Ioannis +aratha!is. It e.ists because of a desire to see the Treatise
streamlined into a sin'le, wor!in' 'rimoire, a plenarium of the various manuscripts. This wor! is not
see!in' authenticity throu'h reconstruction and vain attempts of imitatin' an un!nown ori'inal. Rather,
this wor! was compiled throu'h the comparin' and contrastin' of material, the addition of a missin'
phrase from one manuscript to another, the rearran'in' of a section because of it3s similarities to
another, etc. The 'oal was to shuffle throu'h the clutter of different author3s writin's at different times
and find the most applicable and wor!able content to be presented in this compiliation.
I would li!e to point out the opinion that The +a'ical Treatise of Solomon, and all subse/uent
Solomonic wor!s, ultimately have a ree! -ri'in and not a )ebrew one. The similarities between the
Treatise and the much earlier 4Testament of Solomon5 still do not answer this /uestion, as both contain
6udeo7Christian themes written in the ree! lan'ua'e. Similarily, one could ar'ue that the rimiore
Tradition can be traced bac! to what are now the remnants !nown as the Papyri Graecae Magicae,
possibly even further bac! than that. An amal'amation of reco7E'yptian polytheism, nostic
formulae and 6udeo7Christian fol! ma'ic that was practiced, presumably, by the 8i9ard7$hysicians of
E'ypt. The %ivine Names and formulae of The +a'ical Treatise of Solomon share stri!in' similarities
with the Papyri Graecae Magicae. I su''est that as the world chan'ed under the hand of the dominant
reli'ion, thus the ma'ician :always poised upon the ed'e of what is permissible and what is taboo;
altered his worldview and his loyalty, but not the core of his art.
In conclusion, this present wor! is a curiosity for occultists who have read The +a'ical Treatise
and a vade mecum for the practicin' ma'ician of the Solomonic and ceremonial traditions. If you have
not done so already, I hi'hly recommend purchasin' a copy of the translation by Ioannis +aratha!is
from olden )orde $ublishin', to support his honorable 8or! to see these manuscripts come to li'ht. I
also believe that readin' his te.t will reveal more of the mystery and beauty that is encapsulated within
the various collections of the Treatise. %o not mista!e this wor! as a substitute for +r. +aratha!is3.
A &ote on Isopsephia or the Gree' (a#ala
2efore the invention and widespread utili9ation of a separate written system of characters used
to represent numerical values, the Ancients most often turned to their written alphabet to illustrate the
comple. relationship of numbers and the cosmos. $rior to this, however, the Ancients arran'ed tiny
stones into patterns to function as the world3s first calculator. The ree! word for pebble was 3psephos3,
and it also stood for 4calculation5 :calculi itself bein' the 1atin word for 3pebble3;. Eventually, the
Ancients needed a better way than pebbles to display the more comple. of mathematical formulas, and
until the advent of the acrophonic numerals and the later )indi7Arabic numerals, usin' the alphabet to
represent both sound and numbers was the best method.
The ree! ma'i and oracles saw a deeper relationship between their alphabet, it3s correspondin'
mathematical values and the powers of the world. The Classical )ellenistic worldview of the )ermetic
$hilosophers included twenty four elements, called 3stoicheion3. 0irst of all were the four 3rhozomatoi3
or 3roots3 of Empedocles, who su''ested that it was from these roots that all thin's were made. The four
roots were !nown as 0ire, Air, 8ater, and Earth. Aritstotle later su''ested a fifth root called 3aiether3, or
Spirit, which e.ists in the heavens and binds all thin's to'ether. The latter parts of the twenty four
elements include the seven 3planetoi astres3 or 38anderin' Stars3 and the twelve fi'ures of the 3zodiakos
kuklos3 or the 3wheel of livin' thin's3.
-f these seven wanderin' stars are the two luminaries, the Sun and +oon, and the five planets
capable of bein' seen with the unaided eye, +ercury, #enus, +ars, 6upiter and Saturn. The term
4Seven )eavens5 refers to the division of the s!y into seven spheres that are the domains of the planets
that reside within them. 2eyond the Seven )eavens is the ei'hth sphere, the domain of the 9odiac and
the abode of the si'ns of Ares, Taurus, emini, Cancer, 1eo, #ir'o, 1ibra, Scorpio, Sa'ittarius,
Capricorn, A/uarius and $isces. The 9odiac encompasses the elliptic that the Sun passes throu'h on his
yearly &ourney throu'h the heavens. Contrary to ordinary belief, the 9odiac does not correspond
precisely to the constellations of stars as they are positioned, but rather is a division of the heavens into
<= e/ual parts. In this way, each of the four seasons contains three 9odiac si'ns, but not the
constellations themselves.
So these were the components of the cosmolo'y of the )ermetic $hilosophers. The lin'ua
franca of the philosophers of the ancient world was ree!. 8hat is important here, then, is that both
their lan'ua'e and their >niverse was composed of twenty four elements. Therefore, in this stream of
lo'ic, the sounds and symbols of the twenty four7lettered ree! alphabet literally held the essences of
the powers of the world. Thus, in ritualism we find the application of intoned invocations, chanted
spells, and ma'ic charms written down as talismans. The adoration of the 3Logos3, or 8ord, is persistent
throu'hout ree! thou'ht and reli'ion from the Classical $a'an philosophers up to the emer'ence of
early +editerranean Christianity and beyond. To spea! is to chan'e the world.
Now, we can be sure that the seven vowels of the ree! alphabet represent the
seven planets of 1una, +ercury, #enus, Sol, +ars, 6upiter, and Saturn. This is attested to in relics li!e
the Papyri Graecae-Magicae. The other attributes are more7or7less accurate, and with less apparent
ori'ins. There are no ancient references to the attributes of the other seventeen letters of the alphabet?
however, contained within the -ccult $hilosophy of )einrich Cornelius A'rippa is a chart which
corresponds the twenty7four stoichieon with the )ebrew letters, Chieromantic si'ns, the ree! letters,
and the Roman alphabet. Therefore, by the <@AA3s a European tradition of the use of the twenty7four
stoichieon and correspondin' ree! letters was established in occult philosophy and practical "abala.
$erhaps, then, this was not un!nown to the scribes of the earlier +a'ical Treatise of Solomon and other
subse/uent 'rimiores of the late +iddle A'es and Renaissance periods.
Returnin' now to the use of the alphabet to represent mathematics we find the )ellenistic
occult techni/ue of 3Isopsephia3, meanin' 3e/ual pebble3, li!e the modern system of Numerolo'y, but
distinctly ree!. The ree!s reali9ed that when viewin' a word or phrase written in their alphabet, it
could also be seen as a collection of numbers. 8hen each of these letters are combined throu'h
addition, a 'reater number is found. The mystics loo!ed for words that added up to the same number to
find secret connections. If two words or phrases are e/ual then there can be found a sympathetic
resonance between them. 8hen that resonance is meditated upon its power is made manifest.
The esoteric treasure of Isopsephia is to awa!en the initiate to the reali9ation that number,
sound and symbol are all at the foundations of the ma'ic of the temple.
8hile not a part of the manuscripts containin' The +a'ical Treatise of Solomon, I have
included the Isopsphia of various formulae and nomina barbara, whether inte'rated in the te.t or
contained in the appendi.. This is not meant to su''est that it was important, or even !nown, to the
ori'inal scribes. +y aim in includin' this information is to provide active -ccultists the means to
discover any lin!s or correspondences relevant to their art.

Solomon the "in'3s introduction to the Treatise he is be/ueathin' to his son Rehoboam.
Part I: Beginning of the Magical Treatise of Gathering and Directing the Spirits
8herein Solomon be'ins Instruction in his talismanic art by describin' the virtues of the $lanets, the
%ays of the 8ee!, the )ours of the %ays, as well as the uardian An'els and their Subservient
%emons. )e provides, also, the correct prayers to invo!e the heavenly influences from each $lanet for
the operations of the first part, which is mainly a wondrous method of the talismanic art. Needed for
this art, says Solomon, are a blac!7handled !nife, certain pens of the art, parchments, in!s, and
incenses. -bserve, also the si'ns and seals, the ima'es of the planets, and the virtues of the +oon in
her course and the houses of the *odiac.
Part II: Concerning the Art of the Circle
Solomon continues in his instruction with a powerful art of evocation. )e warns that the ma'ician who
attempts this sort of con&uration should be a pure and pious holy man, abstainin' from the decadent
pleasures of the flesh to prepare for the operation. Solomon3s encoura'ement comes his blessin' which
states that not all men are perfect, but no one should wal! away from the wor! because they deem it too
difficult to accomplish. Solomon provides directions for the craftin' of certain ritual re'alia needed for
the operations? the crown, lamen, the veil for the lamen, the rin', the 'loves, the stoc!in's, the shoes
and the robes. Also necessary are earthen pots of special incense and, of utmost importance, the blac!7
handled !nife of the art. There are certain incantations when summonin' the Spirits and when
dismissin' them, and another, more powerful con&uration if they do not obey the ma'ician. Solomon
'ives instructions on a second method of evocation that con&ures the one hundred7and7twenty demons
from the four /uarters of the world led by 1out9ipher, Asmodai, Astaroth, and 2eel9ebul.
Part III: Oracles & !ocations
A collection of various rituals found alon'side The +a'ical Treatise with similar content and style.
Included are a spell to e.orcise a place of a demon by imprisonin' it in a bottle, as well as divination
rituals that evo!e spirits into basins, bottles, mirrors, and the impressive necromantic ritual involvin' a
human s!ull. -ther minor divination rituals include crystal7'a9in' in the sun7shine, usin' an oiled e''
in the same manner, and the curious fin'ernail divination. A formula for Invisibility is provided, as well
as the rituals of the Evocation of the 1ady of the +ountains and the Evocation of the 2lac! %emon.
+any of these rituals insist upon the assistance of a vir'in boy, recommended because of their purity of
spirit, thou'ht to be a better vehicle for divine visions.
Appendi"
Includin' the CompilerJs commentary on The +a'ical Treatise, includin' isopsephia and illumination
on some of the %ivine and %emonic Names. 8e leave you at the end of the te.t with a list of
recommended boo!s and websites that are relevant to the studies of )ellenic, )ermetic, and Solomonic
+a'ic, as well as the fol!lore and history of the areas of the +editerranean and Near East.

$ay attention, my dearest son Rehoboam, to the details of this art of mine, your father Solomon,
re'ardin' the thin's in which the virtue of thin's lies. 2y means of this treatise, you will learn
everythin' that is possible for a prudent, wise and 9ealous man to !now.
0irst of all, you must observe the astronomical hours of this art, that is to say the times when each
planet rules, the days and the hours. +oreover, you must learn the virtues and powers of each planet, its
an'els and demons, as well as the houses of their 9odiacal si'ns. 8e will also e.hibit the incenses, the
planets, their si'ns and their seals.
And Rehoboam said to his father SolomonK 0ather, in which thin's does the virtue of thin's lieL
And Solomon saidK The entire art, 'race and virtue of what we see!, lies in herbs, in words and in
stones. 2ut first of all, you must !now about the seven planets. The days are seven. They form the
months, which, in turn form the entire year. This is the reason why seven planets and seven heavens are
created amon' the stars. Each day is ruled by a planet. The days are seven, so the seven stars rule them.
I impress upon you a method, my dearest son Rehoboam, so that you may !now that it is absolutely
necessary to find the proper hour in order to accomplish your will. At first recite the prayer of the
planet that rules this hour and then con&ure the an'el and the servant, that is to say, the demon.
Part I:
Beginning of the Magical Treatise of Gathering and Directing the Spirits
Mou may !now, dearest son Rehoboam, that when you want to attempt a wor!, you must !now the
proper planet and the hour. At first recite the prayers, then con&ure the an'el and the demon of that hour
to be your collaborators in the wor! you want to do. Afterwards, draw the characters of the planet with
the appropriate in! and incense. The lord and ruler of the hour will 'rant you the power he owns.

Part II:
Concerning the Art of the Circle
O#ser!ations 0e8$ired of the First Method
Instruction for ma!in' the 'arments Np'. <H=
Now we must start spea!in' about the thin's one who desires to converse with the spirits must
do and the instructions one has to follow? moreover, about the /ualities the ma'ister must have, what
'arments he must wear and what !ind of life he must live when he is 'oin' to be'in this operation.
0irstly and principally, the artisan, or the person who is 'oin' to converse with the spirits and
brin' them before the circle, must be pure, live a modest life and have a modest behavior and character?
he must be abstinent, austere, prudent? he must live far from fornication, licentiousness or debauchery?
and he must be clean from every dis'race and every evil.
If one is not this !ind of person, may the !now for certain that they will not mana'er to summon
and converse with the spirits and fulfill their wishes, unless they chan'e their way of life. 2ecause the
spirits and demons, althou'h not of a 'ood nature, nor conductin' a pure life or havin' a modest
behavior, and althou'h they are responsible for every harm, misery and temptation, however they
re&oice and are easily attracted by the orders and con&urations of a ri'hteous, modest, virtuous and
prudent con&urer.
2ut since such a person is hard to find, let the con&urer be at least of a similar conduct N this is
difficult but necessary. -ne must abstain from sin for a lon' time and be cleansed before the operation.
2ecause the person who purified himself, fasted, confessed all the sins and !nows what we have said
before, will mana'e to do the operation. 1et nobody shamefully decline all these only because he
believes they are hard to follow.
8hen the artisan is 'oin' to use the method of the circle, he must be clean and bathed in pure
fresh water. )e must have clean, white, linen clothes, made especially for this reason, spun and woven
by pure vir'ins. The outer robe, the inner tunic, the cloa!, the stoc!in's for his le's, and 'enerally all
his clothes must be white, linen and new.
0or three days before the evocation he has to fast all day, until the sunset and the risin' of the
stars. At evenin', he must eat only four ounces of bread and enou'h water. %o this for three days, and
abstain from all other food, and clean yourself every day, bathin' in pure fresh water. 2e'in the wor!,
that is to say the art, at the eleventh day of the +oon, in order to finish it at the fourteenth and a half
day, at the 0ull +oon. Nobody must !now you are doin' this, e.cept from your secret apprentice.
The second boo! Np'. =DD
Concernin' the art of the circulum or circle used to interro'ate spirits
And now that you have learned the art and the method of each instrument and everythin' is
discussed in detail, it remains for you to learn about the place where you are 'oin' to stand with your
apprentice, about which nobody else must !now.
o find a proper place to trace a circle. 1et the place be at a pea! of a mountain, in the woods,
on a plain, in a cave, near the sea, in a 'arden, at a place where sombody was !illed in old times and
where neither the crow, nor a rooster, nor the voices of men can be heard, at a pure and trac!less place,
near a river, or near a meetin' of three roads. It has to be far from people, where nobody can hear or
see, and where the human voice cannot be heard, in order for you not to be obstructed by anybody.
8hen the Sun is in opposition to the +oon, put on the aforementioned rin', ta!e the !nife of
the art and trace the circle on the 'round. The 'round must be flattened.....
The Second 2oo! Np'. BCD
Concernin' the art of the circulum or circle, in order to interro'ate spirits? here we write about the
purity that whoever wants to use this art must observe
If you want to subdue the incorporeal spirits and see them in the flesh, you need e.treme
dili'ence, as we shall e.plain here.
2e'innin' from the first day of the +oon, abstain from copulation, meat, wine and fish. 8hen
the eleventh day of the +oon comes, be'in a three day fast, eatin' only bread and water. Mou must
prepare the followin' thin's. Ta!e new white linen clothesK a new shirt, !nee7breeches, soc!s, shoes
and a new piece of cloth for the head.

Mou must understand and learn many thin's concernin' the submission of the spirits, my dearest son
Rehoboam. 2ecause if somebody is 'oin' to subdue the incorporeal spirits and see them in the flesh, he
needs e.treme dili'ence, as I shall e.plain here.
2e'in on the first day of the +oon? abstain from copulation, meat, wine, fish and the similar. 8hen the
eleventh day of the +oon comes, be'in a three7day fast, eatin' only bread. And ta!e new white linen
clothesK a new tunic, stoc!in's, shoes, and a new piece of cloth for the head. 8rite the followin' words
upon this with the in! of the artK
, , , , , , , , , ,

Mou must also ta!e unborn parchment from a male calf, made with the !nife of the art. %raw the
followin' twenty four seals, to'ether with the names, with the in! of the art, as they are drawn. Mou
must bear them on your chest.

Mou must have a place prepared, a clean and isolated house, free from distractions and hidden. At first,
wash your body every day with tepid pure fresh water, from the eleventh day of the +oon until the
fourteenth day and a half. And when the fourteenth day of the +oon comes, if it is day time and you
can read the con&urations, it is 'ood. 2ut if it is ni'ht, you must have lit tapers and lanterns.
Anoint your entire body with pure mus!, civet, clove, Indian costus and water milfoil. Anoint your
body with them? then put on the new 'arments of the art, censed with pure fran!incense, and wear the
head cloth. Trace the circle with the !nife of the art, then ta!e the lamen and put it on your chest.
Mou must also have some lit charcoals and four little earthen vessels, new and pure. $ut inside them the
followin' incensesK +us!, styra., aloe wood, Stacte, spi!enard, saffron and nutme'. $ut them into the
little vessels to be censed.
Enter the circle when the +oon is opposite the Sun, and start recitin' the con&urations towards the four
directions of the world. And you will see spirits comin' in the li!eness of men, and they will also have
their !in' with them. Con&ure them accordin' to what you want and order them to fulfill your will at
once, /uic!ly, /uic!ly.
2ehold the circle. This is it. Trace it as you see it, accurately. :no circle was ever drawn;

Commentary.............................................................
=F
th
demon of the south, is 1ilith, also !nown as in the Testament of Solomon
4@D. And I adored the 1ord od of Israel, and bade another demon present himself. And there came
before me a spirit in woman3s form, that had a head without any limbs, and her hair was dishevelled.
And I said to herK T8ho art thouLT 2ut she answeredK TNay, who art thouL And why dost thou want to
hear concernin' meL 2ut, as thou wouldst learn, here I stand bound before thy face. o then into thy
royal storehouses and wash thy hands. Then sit down afresh before thy tribunal, and as! me /uestions?
and thou shalt learn, - !in', who I am.T
F. And I Solomon did as she en&oined me, and restrained myself because of the wisdom dwellin' in
me
<
? in order that I mi'ht hear of her deeds, and reprehend them, and manifest them to men. And I sat
down, and said to the demonK T8hat art thouLT And she saidK TI am called amon' men O#i@$th? and by
ni'ht I sleep not, but 'o my rounds over all the world, and visit women in childbirth. And divinin' the
hour I ta!e my stand
=
? and if I am luc!y, I stran'le the child. 2ut if not, I retire to another place. 0or I
cannot for a sin'le ni'ht retire unsuccessful. 0or I am a fierce
B
spirit, of myriad names and many
shapes. And now hither, now thither I roam. And to westerin' parts I 'o my rounds. 2ut as it now is,
thou'h thou hast sealed me round with the rin' of od, thou hast done nothin'. I am not standin'
before thee, and thou wilt not be able to command me. 0or I have no wor! other than the destruction of
children, and the ma!in' their ears to be deaf, and the wor!in' of evil to their eyes, and the bindin'
their mouths with a bond, and the ruin of their minds, and painin' of their bodies.T
@G. 8hen I Solomon heard this, I marvelled at her appearance, for I beheld all her body to be in
