The Goetia06:18 Jun 28 2007
Times Read: 1,150
The Goetia is actually a two part text known as the Lemegeton, that contains the Arte Goetia as its first part, and the Arte Theurgia Goetia as its second. The first Text is a complete text within itself dealing with the 72 Spirits evoked and constrained by King Solomon of the Jews. It jumps straight into the description of the 72 Spirits, and ends with notes on the Magick- Conjuration, Constraint, Cursing of unfriendly or unwilling Spirits, Welcoming, and License to depart of all of the Spirits, with Special Notes for special circumstances. The second part is a similar treatise on the 31 Aerial Spirits evoked and constrained by Solomon. The form of this is far more structured than the first part, outlining Directions, Seal, Dukes and Conjuration Beginnings, as I have done with the first part's text. It again ends with notes to conjurations, albeit much shorter than the first part's, and lacks any diagrams, possibly because one is to use the same instruments as with the first part.
Since I have re-structured the presentation of the texts from their Grimore form into a classification-type form, I have included notes on how the form was derived and how it differs from the original texts. Since there is more than one MS from which these came from, I have needed to incorporate both of these. For more information of the specifics, see my notes on part one and part two.
The Spirits referred to in both texts are very powerful entities. In the first part, many of them refer to their own and other Spirit's "falls" as we are accustomed to the "fall" of the Devil Lucifer ("Angel of Light"), and should be treated with great caution as I have noted in my notes to the first Part. Also of note in regards to these spirits is in an editor's note for the second part, in the source from where I obtained my copies of these texts from. It states that many of the spirits and sigils in these texts are found in Trithemius' famous text Steganographia, which, although seemingly a complex treatise on angels and demons, was in fact a treatise on codification. Dr John Dee of the Enochian System fame was said to have obtained a copy of this before his works on the Enochian System. What needs to be sorted out here, by the reader and not by me, is which text came first- Steganographia or the Goetia. If the antiquity of each is not in question, the Goetia came first, which meant that Trithemius simply used a real system to codify something else. If the opposite is true, and the Goetia came after, we would have no doubt in saying that it is simply a fraud. This question has split many a Magickian's view on the Goetia, and will remain an enigma currently, so you will need to delve into both works, and maybe into the Enochian System to work out for yourselves what is real, fake and just plain off the track totally.
King Solomon of the Jews was reported to have captured all of the 72 spirits of the first part of the Lemegeton, i.e. the Goetia, as is explained at the end of the first Part in:
"These be the 72 Mighty Kings and Princes which King Solomon Commanded into a Vessel of Brass, together with their Legions. Of whom BELIAL, ASMODAY, and GAAP, were Chief. And it is to be noted the Solomon did this because of their pride, for he never declared other reason why he thus bound them. And when he had thus bound them up and sealed the Vessel, he by Divine Power did chase them all into a deep Lake or Hole in Babylon. And they of Babylon, wondering to see such a thing, they did then go wholly into the Lake, to break the Vessel open, expecting to find great store of Treasure therein. But when they had broken it open, out flew the Chief Spirits immediately, with their Legions following them; and they were all restored to their former places except BELIAL, who entered into a certain image, and thence gave answers unto those who did offer Sacrifices unto him, and did worship the Image as their God, etc."and this is what the actions described at the end of the first Part revolve around. All of the instruments used by Solomon are described in great description.
In regards to the actual sigils and characters of this work, I will draw your attention to only a few parts, but on further exploration will create a further understanding of the links that I am drawing here. Compare the Secret Seal of Solomon shown in the first part here, with some of the seals and writing outlined in the Clavicula Salomonis, otherwise known as the Greater Key of Solomon. The central motif is obviously a representation of the vessel Solomon used to trap the Spirits, but the structure of the Seal as a whole, and the characters in the outer ring, are undoubtedly in the same vein as the Seals used in the Greater Key. Also note the use of the planets and metals in the first part, which directly align themselves with the final table in the Introduction to the Greater Key, with the exception (as noted in an Editor's note on my copy) of Mars/ Iron being absent in this text. The next section of the Goetia describes when the Spirits should be invoked, and arrange themselves around the sunrise, sunset, and hours after Midnight (i.e. the time system we use where 1am= 1 hour after midnight). These two forms of time usage are outlined in the first table of the Introduction to the Greater Key, but is a far more rigorous use of both systems than the one employed here. All of the cross over information provided- as I have stated here- is however very common knowledge when it comes to the occult. The characters used in the Seal of Solomon are actually from scripts used by Jewish Mystics to codify their texts from prying eyes. They are really just different characters to represent the exact Hebrew alphabet. There has been a use of Time and Planets so far back it's not funny, and so drawing a link between the two texts using only this is also a tenuous job. When we do a comparison between the Greater Key and the Goetia in terms of antiquity, we come to a strange place. Both of the texts are of questionable antiquity, and of questionable genuineness. Again, the reader must wade through some great works to decide for themselves what is true, and what is feeding off of something else.
In an example where we see similar concepts used terribly, we can view the Necronomicon. To the reader, I recommend you grab a hold of one of these books and have a quick read. It's really not worth paying for it, even if it is cheap from a Second Hand Bookstore! It has to be the worst attempt to fake something and pass it off as true. Firstly, it claims a date which sets it well before these texts, and uses terribly simplified sigils/seals. If you read this, you will be better equipped to spot a fake text, and maybe even better equipped to wade through these texts to find some sort of truth.Of a final note, is that much of the popularity of the Goetia is attributed to Aleister Crowley, and I have even used his versions of the Seals here. I caution everyone using Crowley's work to be cautious of being a believer of it. His work was great, but always questionable. I won't try and bias the reader further than that, but do question his work, and mine, because I have used some of it!

Theurgia Goetia
The second part of the Lemegeton contains the names of 31 Chief Spirits, and several of the ministering spirits that are under them, similarly to the First Part. The greatest difference in this second part is the completeness of the system as a whole. The notes to the first part concerning the placement of the Magick Triangle say that it should be placed at the quarter to which the spirit will come, yet nowhere does it specifically state which quarter belongs to each of the Spirits! In this Part, however, the text begins with a diagram that contains the full 32 points of the compass (N, N by E, NNE, NE by N, NE, etc.) this is then used as a guide for the rest of the text.
In the first part, the descriptions of the Spirits is fairly haphazard in order, while in this the Second Part, there is a distinct structure (similar to the one that I gave to the first part) that is used for all of the Spirits. One could almost go so far as to say that this was done by a second hand, or by the same hand much later on, after having used the first part and seen the ease of the structured form. All of this is just wild speculation to pad out this page and keep the reader from the text, so let's wait no longer:
This diagram shows more than just the cardinal points and their attributed Spirits as you can see from the centre. The central circle is split into quarters along the N-S and E-W axes and on these axes are written the seasons- Winter for North, etc. which will probably make far more sense for the pagans of the Northern Hemisphere than those from the South. Inside them is written the four elements which are mentioned in the introduction to the text, and the four attributes of the seasons, cold-winter, hot-summer, dry-autumn, and moist-spring.
In the introduction, it is mentioned that each of the Spirits can perform the same acts as each of the other spirits listed here. These are, but not limited to- discover all things that are hidden, fetch, carry or do anything that is to be done or contained in any of the four elements, and also discover the secrets of Kings or any other person whatever that may be. Each of the Spirits is equally one part good and one part evil because of their aerial nature. They are all of one form, although they carry different names and seals, and reside in different directions. A note to the figure however states that 20 of the Kings are fixed in position, and the other 11 are mobile, and you can face in any direction to call these mobile Spirits. Which of these is which is clearly laid out in the description of the Spirits. Unfortunately I have none of the Seals! I will post them if I ever get hold of a copy of them.
31 Spirits of the Second Part
Four Emperors [found outside of the cardinal points]
Carnesiell [East]
The most great and Chief Emperor, ruling in The East who has 1000 great Dukes and 100 lesser Dukes under him, besides 50,000,000,000,000 of ministering spirits which is more Inferior then the Dukes, whereof we shall make no mention of these, but only 12, of the Chief Dukes, because they are sufficient for practice:
Myrezyn, Ornich, Zabriel, Bucafas, Benoham, Arifiel, Cumeriel, Vadriel, Armany, Capriel, Bedary, Laphor.
Note: When Carnesiel appears, day or night, there attends him 60,000,000,000,000 Dukes (spirits) but when you call any of these Dukes there never attend above 300 and sometimes not above 10.
The Conjuration of Carnesiel: "We Conjure thee O thou mighty and potent Prince Carnesiel[*] who is the Emperor and chief Commander, ruling as King in the dominion of the East who bears rule by the power of the supreme God El, over all Spirits...

The Conjuration of Amenadiel: We Conjure thee O thou mighty and potent Prince Amenadiel who is the Emperor & chief King ruling in the dominion of the West (continue from the * in the first conjuration.)

Demoriel [North]
The Great and Mighty Emperor of the North, who has 400 great Dukes and 600 lesser Dukes with 70,000,080,000,900,000 [possibly- 700,000,800,000,900,000] servants under his command to attend him, whereof we shall make mention but of 12 of the chief Dukes, which will be sufficient for practice.
Arnibiel, Cabarim, Menador, Burisiel, Doriel, Mador, Carnel (Carnol), Dubilon, Medar, Churibal, Dabrinos, Chamiel (Chamiol) [MS Sl 2731 has: Chomiel].
Note: Each of those Dukes has 1140 servants who attends them as need requires. When that Duke you call for has more to do then ordinarily, he has the more Servants to attend him.

Spirits of the East to South
Pamersiel [E]
The First and Chief spirit in the East, under Carnesiel, who has 1000 spirits under him which are to be called in the day time, but with great care for they are very lofty and stubborn whereof we shall make mention but of a 11 as follows:
Anoyr, Madriel, Ebra, Sotheano, Abrulges, Ormenu, Itules, Rablion, Hamorphiel, Itrasbiel, Nadrel.
Note: These Spirits are by nature evil and very false, and not to be trusted in secret things but are excellent in driving away spirits of darkness from any place or house that is haunted.
To call Forth Pamersiel, or any of these his servants:
Choose the utmost private or secret and most tacit room in the house, or in some certain island wood or grove or the most occult and hidden place, removed from all comers and goers, that no one by chance, may (if possible) happen that way into your chamber or whatsoever place else, you act your concerns in. Ensure that it be very airy because these spirits that is in this part are all of the Air.You may call these spirits into a Crystal stone or Glass Receptacle, this being an ancient & usual way of receiving and binding spirits. This crystal stone must be four Inches diameter, set on a Table of Art made as follows [figure not included] which is truly called the secret Table of Solomon, and having the seal of the spirit on your breast, and the girdle about your waist, and you cannot err- the form of the Table is thus, as this present figure does here represent and show.When you have thus prepared what is to be prepared, rehearse the conjuration following several times that is whilst the spirit come, for without doubt he will come. Note the same method is to be used in all the following part of this Book as is used here for Pamersiel and his servants. Also the same in calling the king and his servants etc.
The Conjuration of Pamersiel: We Conjure thee O Pamersiel, a Chief Spirit. Ruling in the East, &c.

They are all good by nature and may be trusted. Solomon says that these spirits have no power of themselves but only what is given unto them by their prince Padiel. Therefore he has made no mention of any of their names because if any of them is called they cannot appear without the leave of their prince as others can do. You must use the same method in calling this prince Padiel, as is shown for Pamersial.
The Conjuration: We conjure thee o thou mighty and potent Prince Padiel, who rules as a chief prince or king in the dominion of the East & by South, we invocate [invoke] command & compel you, by the especial name of your God etc. (as with the other conjurations)
