The Magical Ritual of the Sanctum Regnum - Interpreted by the Tarot Trumps - Translated from the Mss. of Éliphas Lévi - With Eight Plates

First published in 1896 The Magical Ritual of the Sanctum Regnum is an interesting dissertation on the ruling of the world by the seven great archangels written by Éliphas Lévi (1810 - 1875) a French author of occult literature and ceremonial magician. In this vintage volume Lévi outlines how the world is ruled by one of the seven archangels each for a period of 354 years. The archangels are represented by celestial bodies with Michael being the sun Gabriel being the moon Samael Mars etc. This volume will appeal to those with an interest in the occult and it is not to be missed by collectors of vintage esoteric literature. Contents include: The Magical Ritual of the Sanctum Regnum The Priestess - La Papesse The Empress - L'imperatrice The Emperor L'Emereur The Pope of Hierophant - Le Pape The Lovers - L'amoureux The Chariot of Hermes - Le Chariot Justice - La Justice etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable modern high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
