The Book of Summoning

by Ian Corrigan

A Pagan System of Evocation The Book of Summoning presents a practical system based in the forms and structures of the grimoires, empowered by the gods and spirits of Pagan ways. There are no ‘angels’ or ‘demons’, only the spirits, who are approached in a respectful and careful way, without coercion or threat. Based in the work of the Nine Moons system, it includes: • The Hearth Cult, The Year Cult and the Sorcerer’s Cult • Beyond Angels and Demons - Toward A Pagan Spiritology • The Hosting of the Sidhe • The Teacher & the Familiar – the Spirit Allies • The Sorcerer’s Sacrifice – a Rite of Alliance & Empowerment.

About the author

I'm a Neopagan of the Druidic sort, interested in Celtic polytheism as it might manifest for modern people in North America. I'm also an occultist, broadly interested in arcane and magical systems and ideas, from medieval grimoires through Hindu Tantra and Asian shamanism to Thelema and Chaos Magic. I'm a fan of the folk music of the British Isles and its modern inheritors as well as of fantasy and horror lit, especially the work and legacy of HP Lovecraft.

Reviews

[Joe Crow]

Well done, lots of good tech in here, and much better edited than Book of Visions. BoV probably should have been a chapter in this, instead of its own book.
