The Book of the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage

A Grimoire of Divine Knowledge and the Holy Guardian Angel

The Book of Abramelin is one of the most revered and enigmatic texts in the Western esoteric tradition. Written in the 15th century and attributed to Abraham of Würzburg—a Jewish mystic and traveler—the book recounts his meeting with the Egyptian mage Abramelin, who imparts a complete system of sacred magic designed to unite the practitioner with their Holy Guardian Angel (HGA).

Unlike other grimoires of its era, this work emphasizes moral purification, spiritual discipline, and divine communion over coercive spellcasting. At the heart of the text is a long and intense operation—originally lasting six months—intended to prepare the magician to receive direct guidance from their HGA. Only after this divine union may the practitioner safely and ethically work with angelic and demonic forces.

The book is divided into three parts:

• Book I: Abraham’s autobiography and account of his spiritual journey.
• Book II: Instructions for the preparation, tools, prayers, and retreat required for the operation.
• Book III: Introduction with the magical word squares—each with specific effects ranging from healing to invisibility—used only after the HGA has been contacted.
