This booklet, as my others, begins with the premise that Magick works. If I did not believe that, I wouldn’t be writing them. I am aware that a belief in Magick is unfashionable in our high-tech society ... but I also believe that technology just hasn’t caught up to Magick.In the previous works cited, I have outlined some procedures for beginning a Magickal Practice. I introduced the concept of Ceremonial Magick, wherein the Operator attempts to supplement his or her own powers by contacting Forces outside the self to help. This booklet will continue in that vein. “Daemons’’ (which original Greek spelling I have used to differentiate the whole range of “Things” we shall be dealing with from the “Demons” of Christian myth and theology from such works as the Pseudomonarchia Demonorum of Weirus and the Lemegeton) are Powers which are or seem to be conscious personalities, functioning on, and apparently capable of affecting conditions and events on, both the Material and the Non-Material (Astral) Planes. That they could include some of the parenthetically mentioned gentry such as Asmodeus and his famous buddy Mephistopheles is certainly possible; every neighborhood has its bad apples. We shall discuss some of the material which purports to tell you how to contact such as these, but I don’t suggest trying most of it—certainly not until you have read a great deal more on the subject than a short pamphlet like this.
