Book Of St Cyprian Sorcerers Guide How To Sell Your Soul To Lucifer For Riches And Power

The Procure of Saint Cyprian (also acknowledged as The Sorcerers' Guide) is an thinking book on magic - harmonizing in tone and delighted to the Western "grimoires" (magic books) of the Fundamental Ages. Point Thirteen of "The Procure of Saint Cyprian" is dedicated to making a agreement with the Evil spirit in loose change for success and power.

It instructs the magician to go to a mound top (or crossroads about a branch or destruction) with speckled talismans and to squiggle a magic circle on the base, from which Lucifer is invoked three times. The first prayer makes no bones about the greedy establishment of the deal:

"King Lucifer, owner and lord of all the disordered spirits, I beg you to curve my request Enlargement to me tonight in material form, sans any awful smell, and acquaint with me, by lane of the knowledge which I am departure to shout from the rooftops to you, all the success and gifts that I call."

At this protest, according to the book, a demon appears fast to know why his rest has been disturbed. Then Lucifer enters the erosion, refusing the magician's request for success, by saying:

"I can't harmonize to your entail, avoid on the sickness that you let somebody have temporarily yourself to me for twenty being, to do with your conditional and soul what I need."

Taking sides long for deliberations, a knowledge is signed in blood, and Lucifer leads the magician to the near assess.

The" Procure of Saint Cyprian", it isn't quick forward-looking. Maximum readers in the West would see it as very tasteless - magic ritual existing in almost distortion form - and very grouchy to prefer grievously.

Yet a narrative from a trainer in Portugal, Ray Vogensen, shows that, even in the West, the book has a presentiment immovable. Employees prefer it grievously heaps to be restless by it.

"I first heard of it because students of mine told of a girl who had dyed-in-the-wool suicide in Vila Clean by throwing herself off the efficient bridge that crosses the Corgo Spurt. According to stories, but held by my students, the "Procure of Saint Cyprian" was found about her conditional. Students had a open apprehension of the book and advised not to open it."

As far as Vogensen's students were fascinated it was an accursed grimoire.

Not the same versions of the book come to pass, each claiming to give away the "true" knowledge of Saint Cyprian. The editors of the speckled versions of "The Procure of Saint Cyprian" include Joaquim Sabugosa, N.A. Molina and Pierre Dumont. All insist their put out provides the "true" wisdom of Saint Cyprian.

The book is very in the sphere of in Portugal and Spain, as well as in South America. In Brazil, it is even more or less from the professional department store, Lojas Americans - which is on a par with London's Harrod's department store stocking it.

The book is at odds at home three parts. The first part tells the life story of Saint Cyprian; gives prayers for the middle of the day, the afternoon, and midnight; offers ways to think about it the future; lists the 148 spaces in which enchantments can be found and ends with ways to deal cards. The summarize part reveals the "true assess" of black and white magic, offers the secrets of witchcraft for good and evil and provides magical recipes to obedient a marriage associate or follower. Even if the third part lists all the treasures that can be found, in the main in the borough of Galicia, in north west Spain.

But who was Saint Cyprian?

According to The Catholic Book (Magnitude IV), he was one of the Christians of Antioch, ancient Syria, who were executed (the day of Saint Cyprian's martyrdom, September 26, became his f?te day.) on 26 September, AD 304:

"Christians of Antioch who suffered martyrdom wearing the annoyance of Diocletian at Nicomedia, 26 September, 304, the meeting place in September mainstay afterwards finished the day of their f?te. Cyprian was a heathen magician of Antioch who had thing with demons. By their aid he sought after to bring St. Justina, a Christian virgin, to ruin; but she thwarted the threefold attacks of the devils by the sign of the ill-tempered. Brought to despair Cyprian finished the sign of the ill-tempered himself and in this way was unprofessional from the toils of Satan. He was conventional at home the Minster, was finished pre-eminent by enchantment gifts, and became in parentage deacon, priest, and at the end of the day bishop

In vogue the Diocletian annoyance [he was] held and active to Damascus in which [he was] shockingly angst-ridden. As [his] confidence never wavered [he was] brought yet to be Roman sovereign Diocletian at Nicomedia, in which at his authority [he was] beheaded on the interface of the branch Gallus. Last [the conditional of the saint] had lain unburied for six days [he was] active by Christian sailors to Rome in which [he was] interred on the zone of a momentous member of the aristocracy named Rufina and second [was] entombed in Constantine's basilica

The story stipulation wolf arisen as little as the fourth century, for it is mentioned each one by St. Gregory Nazianzen and Prudentius; each one, despite the consequences, wolf confused our Cyprian with St. Cyprian of Carthage, a mix up recurrently go to regularly. It is certain that no Bishop of Antioch responsibility the name of Cyprian. The stir has been finished to find in Cyprian a mystical harbinger of the Faust legend: [Spanish dramatist Pedro] Calderon took the story as the fund of a drama: 'El magico prodigioso'." *

*("El M'agico Prodigioso", "The Wonder-Working Magician", was in print by important Spanish dramatist, Pedro Calder'on de la Barca, in 1637).

Maximum books unfolding the lives of the saints wolf two entries for Saint Cyprian: Saint Cyprian of Antioch and Saint Cyprian of Carthage. Any lived in the 3rd century, each one were bishops and each one were beheaded. To make it even above tortuous to deduce who was who, their pageant days are each one large in September. But the consensus seems to be that Cyprian of Antioch is the reputed poet of the common grimoire. Of course, award is no say that he himself wrote it; and because the book was first in print is calm a mystery.

But as trainer, Ray Vogensen, who looked far off at home the back number, says: "The facts are barren since persons who use the book or who accept in Saint Cyprian do not anxiety about such discrepancies."
