Clavis or Key to the Magic of Solomon By Ebenezer Sibley & Frederick Hockley

Clavis or Key to the Magic of Solomon reproduces a manuscript from the collection of Ebenezer Sibley, transcribed under Frederick Hockley’s direction. Joseph H. Peterson’s commentary places the material within the history of Western ceremonial magic.

Colored seals and handwritten text accompany instructions concerning celestial influences, magical tools and pentacles. The volume gathers eight magical texts, including The Mysterious Ring and The Wheel of Wisdom; it is a grimoire reference, not evidence that its ritual promises are effective.
