Preface

The first edition of this volume has been commended and criticised by

the public. It was admitted to be a valuable compendium of the curiosi*

ties of literature generally, and especially of that pertaining to magic, but

that it was at the same time calculated to foster superstition, and thereby

promote evil—a repetition of the charge made against the honorable

Horst, the publisher of a magical library.

In our enlightened age, the unprejudiced will observe in the publication

of such a work, only what the author claims, namely, a contribution in reference

to the aforesaid literature and culture of no trifling merit ; but in

regard to the believer also, the issue of a cheap edition will be more

serviceable than the formerly expensive productions on sorcery, which

were only circulated in abstract forms and sold at extortionate rates.

What other practical value the above named edition may possess is not

the question. Let us not, therefore, underrate this branch of populat literature

; the authors wrote in accordance with a system which was, or at

least, seemed clear to them, and illustrious persons, in all ages and climes

have not considered the labor requisite to fathom the mysteries of magic

as labor expended in vain, and although they condemned the form, they

could not deny the possibility or even fact that gifted men, of inherent

worth, could accomplish such wonderful things.

In regard to the present edition it can only be said, that the so-called

Sixth and Seventh Books of Moses, which have for several centuries attracted

the popular faith, is reality in accordance with an old manuscript

(the most legible among many), and given word for word, divested only

of orthographical errors which the best interest of literature demand—

with unerring fidelity. The publisher guarantees that not one syllable

has been added*

Introduction

We meet again, together exploring the vastness of who we are, and

again dreaming the same ancient secret that life is a beautiful mystery leading

to wherever we envision.

Volume 2 contains the meditation instructions that were originally

taught to me by the angels for entering the consciousness state called the

Mer-Ka-Ba—in modern terms called the human lightbody. Our lightbody

holds the possibility for the human potential to transcend into a new translation

of the universe we find so familiar. Within a specific state of consciousness,

all things can begin anew and life will change in ways that appear miraculous.

These words speak more of remembrance than of learning or teaching.

You already know what is in these pages because it is written in every cell of

your body, but it is also hidden deep inside your heart and your mind, where

all that is really needed is just a simple nudge.

Out of the love that I have for you and all life everywhere, I offer these

images and this vision to you so that they will be useful; so that they will

bring you closer to the self-realization that Great Spirit is intimately and

lovingly connected to your essence; and with the prayer that these words be

the catalyst that opens the way for you into the higher worlds.

You and I live in a pivotal moment in Earth's history. The world is dramatically

metamorphosing as computers and humans enter into a symbiotic

relationship, giving Mother Earth two ways to see and interpret world

events. She is using this new sight to alter and open the pathways into the

higher worlds of light so that even a child can understand. Our Mother

loves us so much.

We, her children, are now walking between the two worlds, our ordinary

everyday life and a world that surpasses the dreams of even our oldest

ancestors. With our Mother's love and our Father's help, we will find a way

to heal the hearts of the people and transform this world back into unity

consciousness once again.

May you enjoy what you are about to read, and may it truly be a blessing in your life.

In love and service,

Drunvalo

The Book of Enoch, 2800-200 BC

If the legends are to be believed, Enoch

passed his book and other books to

Noah, who preserved them in the Ark.

Noah then passed Enoch’s book on to

Shem, who preserved it in the city of

Salem. Eventually it was passed down

to the Israeli tribe of Levi for safe

keeping. Somewhere along the line a

new Hebrew translation renamed some

of the place names of the cities, rivers,

and lands. This was most likely done

around the time of Solomon. It was then

preserved up to the time the Essenes

buried it, along with other ancient texts,

to be found among the Dead Sea Scrolls.

The Ancient Church on Enoch, AD 32-700

The Book of Enoch is quoted by church

fathers and rabbis alike, all the way

back to the first century. By the year AD

700 it was forgotten by the church as a

whole. Here are a few quotes from the

ancient church fathers that let us know

that the Ethiopic version of Enoch

(called 1 Enoch) was considered the

real Book of Enoch and that it contained

real prophecy. It was not, however, to

be added to the canon of Scripture, but

was considered recommend reading by

Scripture much like the Ancient Book of

Jasher. What we know today as 2 Enoch

and 3 Enoch were never considered real

by either the church or the ancient rabbis.

Origen, Of First Principles 4.1.35,

quotes Enoch 41 and 17.

Origen, Against Celsus 5.48,54,

shows that Celsus’ quote of

Enoch’s prophecy of seventy angels

is from 2 Enoch. Origen corrects

him by stating that the books of

Enoch he was using (2 and 3

Enoch) are not received by Jews or Christians.

Irenaeus, Against Heresies 4.16,

summarized the story of Enoch 6-16.

Tertullian, On Idolatry 4, said

Enoch taught that the demons and

spirits of the apostate angels turned

everything pure into idolatry.

Anatolius 5 says the Book of Enoch

clearly shows the Hebrew New

Year begins about the time of the equinox.

Testament of Levi 10 teaches that

the Book of Enoch says the Jews

will be scattered among the heathen

and the temple will be at Jerusalem.

Theodotus 2 quotes Enoch as

saying “I have seen all sorts of matter.”

Tertullian, Apparel of Women 1.2 ,

summarized the errors taught by the

fallen angels in Enoch 6-16.

Tertullian, Apparel of Women 1.3 ,

says the Book of Enoch is genuine.

The Book of Enoch was not

received by some Christians

because it was not part of the

Jewish canon. The Jews

[Pharisees] rejected it, like some

portions of Scripture, because it

testified of Christ. Its quotation

from the epistle of Jude proves it is

to be considered genuine prophecy.

Tertullian, Treatise on the Soul 50,

says Enoch and Elijah will return to

earth (his interpretation of Enoch 90:31).

Tertullian, Idolatry 1.4, 15, quotes

the Book of Enoch.

AD 1768-1948

A man named James Bruce heard that the

only translation known to still exist of

the lost Book of Enoch was preserved

by the Ethiopian Christian Church. In

AD 1768, Bruce travelled to Ethiopia to

find the Book of Enoch. Six years later,

in 1773, he brought three manuscripts

back to London where they lay in the

British Museum untranslated. One

hundred and twenty years later, in 1893,

a man named R. H. Charles translated

the manuscripts from the Ethiopic

language into English.

Introduction

Enoch was the seventh generation from

Adam, the first man God created

(Genesis 5:1-24). From Scripture we

know Enoch lived for 365 years and then

was translated or raptured without

dying, and that even though he was a

sinner like every other human being, he

pleased God with his lifestyle.

And Enoch lived sixty and five

years, and begat Methuselah: and

Enoch walked with God after he

begat Methuselah three hundred

years, and begat sons and

daughters: and all the days of

Enoch were three hundred sixty and

five years: and Enoch walked with

God: and he was not; for God took him. Genesis 5:21-24

By faith Enoch was translated that

he should not see death; and was

not found, because God had

translated him: for before his

translation he had this testimony,

that he pleased God. But without

faith it is impossible to please Him:

for he that cometh to God must

believe that He is, and that He is a

rewarder of them that diligently seek Him. Hebrews 11:5-6

Enoch named his firstborn son

Methuselah (Genesis 5:22). The name

Methuselah is made up of two Hebrew

words; “meth” meaning “death” and

“selah” meaning “to send.” The way

Genesis 5:22 puts these two words

together is unique. The spelling suggests

the name can be translated as a Hebrew

sentence meaning “when he is dead, it

will be sent.” If we add the years from

creation to the birth of Methuselah as

found in Genesis 5, and then add his age

at death, we find he died the very same

year the Flood came. If we look in the

ancient book of Jasher 5:36, we see

Methuselah died exactly one week

before the Flood occurred. This is the

same day Noah entered the Ark! (Genesis 7:1-4).

The timing clearly shows Enoch knew of

the prophecy of God’s judgment of the

world and, apparently, God gave Enoch

a prophecy that the day his son died

would be the end of the world as he

knew it! This would, indeed, keep Enoch

centered on both his son and the

teachings of God throughout his whole

life, walking very closely with God.

Theologian John Gill (AD 1697-1771)

wrote about the Book of Enoch saying:

“Enoch, the seventh from Adam,

delivered out the prophecy referred

to by the apostle Jude, (verses 14,

15) … the Jews make mention of a

writing of his in their ancient book

of Zohar; and in the Targum of

Jonathan on Genesis 5:24, he is

called the great scribe; and several

of the Christian fathers speak of his

book as authentic, as Tertullian and

others; and the Arabic writers

[Flavius Josephus] tell us of

pyramids and pillars erected by

him, on which he engraved the arts

and the instruments of them; and

some writers ascribe the invention

of letters and writing of books to

THE AUTHOR’S PREFACE

THIS book came out in France three years ago.

Since that time science has been making

rapid strides, and in prosecuting my studies I have

found a confirmation of many of my opinions. I

could not therefore allow a translation of my studies

relating to “Chaldean Magic” to appear without

making a new edition of it, subject to various

corrections and additions. To this end I have

carefully revised all the translations of Cuneiform

texts contained in this volume, and in some cases

slight modifications have been necessary to bring

them into harmony with the latest discoveries. I

have added a translation of several interesting

fragments which were not comprised in the French

edition, and entirely rewritten some of the chapters.

The book which I now offer the English public may,

therefore, be regarded as an almost entirely new

work, which alone represents the present state of

my opinions and studies.

EDITOR’S  PREFACE

LA MAGIE CHEZ LES CHALDEENS,”

of which this present volume is an enlarged

edition, was issued by M. Lenormant in the autumn

of 1874; it was preceded hy Les Premieres Civilisations^

and closely followed in 1875 by La Divination et la

Science des Presages; all these works possessing the

same characteristic feature : the exposition of Assyrian

thought, as evidenced by the language of the

Cuneiform inscriptions themselves, compared with

the traditions and usages of other ‘contemporary and

descended races, both Semitic and Turanian.

The interest excited in the philosophical world by

these treatises was still further increased, by the

publication in England, almost immediately afterwards,

of the late George Smith’s Chaldean Genesis^

in which for the first time since the era of Assurbanipal,

the myths of the ancient Accadians were

read in the light of day. By the additional texts

thus recovered for the use of students, the premises

of M. Lenormant were to a great extent confirmed;

and the interest of Biblical scholars in Assyrian

mythology showing every sign of increasing, it was

deemed advisable to present the general public with

an English edition of La Magie. This task was at

once undertaken by Messrs. Bagster and Sons, and

on the MSS. being sent to the author, he in the

most generous manner offered to recast the earlier

Chapters of the work, and to rewrite some of the

latter. While this was being done, the researches

of Prof. Sayce and other Assyriologists elucidated

new facts, and discovered fresh parallels between the

Accadian and Ugro-Finnic theologies. These discoveries

had all to be considered and incorporated

with the original text of M. Lenormant, and the

result was, in the end, an almost entire remodelling

of the French edition. To the editor was assigned,

with the consent of the author, the office of .adding

references from English authorities to the citations

already given from Continental writers, especially as

La Magie was, in its new form, designed for a larger

circulation than that of scholars alone. The various

texts issued in the Records of the Past, and the

Transactions of the Society of Biblical Archceology

, had to be cited wherever it was possible to do so ; and

further, such various readings noted as had been

adopted by English translators. These numerous

emendations, while they increased the value of the

>

work, delayed its progress through the press far

longer than was anticipated, and even now, at the

last moment, it has been judged expedient by

M. Lenormant to add an Appendix bearing upon

the ethnographical meaning of the term “Sumirian,”

in reply to a pamphlet by Dr. Oppert, which has

become the centre of a controversy, the waves of

which have begun to reach our shores.

These circumstances will account for one or two

apparent discrepancies in the present translation:

viz., the use of the syllable “ dug” for “ khi,” in the

ideograms composing the name of the god Marduk,

from p. 19 to p. 64, and its subsequent abandonment

by the author in favour of the older reading in

p. 108, et seq. The expansion of the note from

Berosus on p. 157, regarding the deity Oannes into

an Appendix to Chapter XIII. , at p. 201, is another

example of the progressive revision which this

translation has undergone.

These revisions and corrections, both of the

original work and the present translation, as passed

by M. Lenormant, are only such as from the nature

of the theme, and the advancing condition of

Assyrian philology might be expected. Of Assyriology

it may truly be written, “day unto day uttereth

knowledge.” There is probably no section of the

science of comparative mythology of which, till recently,

less has been known, or of which, at present,

more authentic materials remain, than the subject of

“ Chaldean Magic : its Origin and Development.”

Preface

This Volume is an authentic and an official work, compiled

from Ancient Jtlanuscripts, and gives in full detail many rare and

Secret Mysteries. The same is embellished with several full page

illustrations of Magic Ceremonies; together with nearly one hun

dred and fifty rare old engravings of Ancient Talismans, etc.

There is also, for the first time, given to the student, in this work,

a complete reproduction of the Original Mysteries and Ancient

Manuscripts of the “DIVINE RAPHAEL,” better known as the

“Metropolitan Astrologer” and editor of the Prophetic Almanac,

and other Sidral works.

This book also contains the Mystic Rites, Ceremonies, and

Incantations, used by the Ancient Theurgists and old Philoso

phers to burst asunder the bounds of natural order, and to obtain

an intercourse with the world of spirits; for let it known, to

those whose eyes follow these words, that millions of spiritual

creatures walk the earth unseen, both when we are awake and

when we are asleep. .

The rapid sale, over the world, of my books, and the

unprecedented requests for Catalogues, describing the same,

has caused me to publish this work although I have had these

Ancient Manuscripts in my possession many, many years, hav

ing purchased them at a very great cost; but as my former books

are in such vigorous demand, I have deemed it expedient to

present the philosophical world with this compendious Volume;

wherein is contained Instructions, Secrets and Mysteries that

were known only to the old Masters some four hundred years ago.

The inconsistencies of many authors, and the foolish claims

of book sellers, who are selling works said to have been written

by RAPHAEL, always brings a quiet and sarcastic smile to the face

of those that know that the market today is flooded with false

and spurious editions of this great man’s writings.

This Volume is an authentic one, and the student may depend

upon it, from the first to the last page, as I have carefully

expunged everything not valuable, original, and worthy of the

student’s attention, so that he may, with as little difficulty as

possible, be capable of learning the Astral and Celestial Worlds

in their most essential parts. As to the Magical and Occult Parts

of this work; such as Magic Rites, Charms, and Incantations,

they are most fully explained so as to enable my Students and my

Disciples to complete the full development of their Occult studies.

There are things taught in this Volume which will enable the

student to operate many strange and wonderful things so that

even this part of the work may not be devoid of utility; but may

help the student to invoke powers that will render him great aid.

The student of Spiritual Mysteries and Astral Powers will find

ample herein to gratify his desire; for in the perusal of these

Rare And Ancient Manuscripts, many of which are replete with

those secrets now so much sought after, the student will realize

the great worth of this Volume which will be found acceptable

to the legitimate student of Magic And Celestial Science.

No modern Expositor of Astrology can bear in comparison

with the “DIVINE RAPHAEL,” and among ancient expositors, he

stood the highest in authority, all yielding to his great knowledge.

Hence, no greater name than RAPHAEL’s has ever embellished

the science of Astrology and no Volume such as this one, contain

ing his Original Mysteries, has ever been before published. The

very same deals with Magic, Charms, Talismans, Astral In»

fluences, The Spirit World, Demonology And Witchcraft.

The real manhood of man can only be gained by having a full

and clear knowledge of Occultism and Ancient Magic. This is

the ideal which all earnest Occult students is striving to attain,

and this ideal has plainly been recognized by all intelligent leaders

of human progress. The time has come for men and women

“to put away childish things,” and to relinquish the beliefs and

practices of the priest, the minister and the materialists.

Ancient Magic is a terrible power. It is based upon the pre

scientific world-conception, which in its primitive stage is called

animism, imputing to nature a spiritual life analogous to our own

spirit, and peopling the spirit world with individual personalities.

The Old Magic stands in contrast to material science; it trans

cends human knowledge by supernatural methods and is based

upon the fact of operating many wonderful things by the assist

ance of Invisible Powers and Intelligent Spirits who can be

forced by Magical Invocations into an alliance with the operator.

The real Occult student knows that evil influences, of every

kind, can be averted and warded ofi by Charms or Talismans, and

that the aid of, both good and Evil Spirits, can be procured by

proper Incantations and Conjurations.

The world-conception of true ‘Occultism and Magic is long

lingering, and its influence will not subside instantaneously with

the first frown of material science. The Middle Ages were‘full of

Magic, and the belief in it has not died out to this day, and never will.

Dr. L. W. de Laurence.

ABOUT THE TRANSLATORS

JOHN MICHAEL GREER is a widely respected author, translator, and

blogger in the occult field. He is most recently the editor of the new,

substantially revised seventh edition of Israel Regardie’s occult landmark

The Golden Dawn (Llewellyn 2016).

MARK MIKITUK, currently a resident of France, has extensive

experience as a translator and has also taught English to Francophone

students. This is his first book project.

TRANSLATOR’S NOTE

Mark Anthony Mikituk

Eliphas Lévi’s Doctrine and Ritual of High Magic is an unusual work,

and therefore, although it is unusual to do so, I would like to take a few

moments of the reader’s time to expound upon my qualifications for, and

my method of, translating it.

John Michael Greer and I met through the magic of the Internet: in one

of his blogs he mentioned his dissatisfaction with A. E. Waite’s

translation, and I had the temerity to offer my services as a professional

translator, in the production of a new, annotated version.

I believe that in John Michael Greer’s mind my main qualifications for

the job, aside from the fact that I am a professional translator, was that I

lacked virtually any other basis upon which to recommend myself: I

belonged to no occult organization; I had very little experience with the

occult beyond an expressed interest in it; I had not, and never did

throughout this translation, read A. E. Waite’s version of the work; and, as

I said to Greer myself, I had “no skin in the game.”

Thus I embarked upon this translation, as the fool would, naively, with

just a bit of courage at hand.

But no fool is entirely naive, even at birth, and from the start I chose a

particular method with regard to my translation, which was then confirmed

by experience: I believed that any great work of the occult—as The

Doctrine and Ritual of High Magic most certainly is—might have some

ulterior, initially indefinable, motive, and that I should stick as closely as I

possibly could to the original form of the work, in order not to make the

mistake of failing to transmit some unknown quantity.

That intuition was quickly, and positively confirmed, by the effect the

translation of Levi’s work had upon me. This was not some vulgar book,

on magic or otherwise; it was written with the intention to act upon the

reader’s mind exactly like an initiatory experience, if that reader is of the

right frame of mind. That is to say, although written as prose, this book is

in fact poetry for the mind and acts as a key that can be used to open it.

In practice, as is the case when one translates poetry, this meant

keeping as close as possible, not only to the sense, but also to the sound,

the form and the rhythm, of the work. And so I have endeavored to keep

the structure and rhythm of Lévi’s work intact. As much as possible, I

have stayed close to Lévi’s words and tone, even if, perhaps, in English

they at times seem a bit highfalutin. This is originally a French work, after all.

Thus to the best of my ability I have attempted to intuit and reproduce

The Doctrine and Ritual of High Magic, as Éliphas Lévi might have

written it, had he done so in English.

Any errors are of course mine, but I would like to thank John Michael

Greer for numerous pieces of advice and wisdom, and my wife, Géraldine,

for her patience.
