The Book of Oberon
A magician's book of spirits, visions and hidden things
AN OCCULT HALL ILLUSTRATIONEnter its world.
The Book of Oberon gathers prayers, catalogues, characters and proposed encounters into a working collection. Its spirits have particular offices: some disclose natural properties, some reveal treasure, and others govern subordinate companies. These differences shape the questions and demands addressed to them.
Seventeen editorially selected lessons examine the collection’s different kinds of work: visionary encounters, fairy learning, treasure, regional government, prayer, planetary hours, sacred names and the cooperation of a ritual company. They explain the manuscript’s own distinctions between an appearance, a truthful answer, a promised service and its completion. Seventeen is the course’s arrangement, not a claim about the manuscript’s original divisions. Each new reading is accompanied by the corresponding historical page within our two-volume facsimile.
- The book and the visionary stone
- Oberyon, Mycob and their companies
- Treasure knowledge and guardianship
- Four directional kings
- Birto and the license to depart
