Overview

Learning from Legendary Practitioners offers a series of investigations into ancient and legendary experts in the occult arts, including the ancient Greek figures of Circe, Teiresias, Medea, and Orpheus, as well as the supposed witches and faery queens who were the inspiration for the play Macbeth. These investigations engage with the myth and literature around each figure, as well as their historical and archeological contexts. Each chapter seeks to provide both our best understanding of the practitioners in questions as well as explanations for how the author went on to contact these figures and what he learned from the experience - thus blending historical research with active occult investigation largely of necromantic nature. The result is a book that provides a full education in the practice of spirit summoning and necromancy as well as offering a complete profile of some of the art's most famous practitioners. The second part of the book provides careful considerations of the nature of necromancy, its connection to the ancient cults of the dead which we understand as ancestor and hero worship, the enigmatic tomb cult, and finally a detailed guide for how to acquire an assistant spirit of the dead to aid in your necromantic work. In providing such rich and complete histories of some of the most important and famous practitioners of magic along with careful explanations of how to contact them yourself, this book provides an invaluable and unique master course in the practice and history of spirit summoning and necromancy.
