The Archidoxes of Magic is a book written by the renowned Swiss physician and alchemist, Paracelsus, also known as Theophrastus. It is a collection of his writings on the subject of magic, which he believed to be a natural science that could be used to heal the body and the soul. The book is divided into 10 chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of magic, such as the use of herbs and minerals, the creation of talismans and amulets, and the invocation of spirits. Paracelsus believed that magic was not just a tool for manipulating the physical world, but also a means of accessing spiritual realms and communicating with divine beings. Throughout the book, he provides detailed instructions on how to perform various magical rituals and spells, as well as insights into the underlying principles that govern the practice of magic. The Archidoxes of Magic is an important work in the history of Western esotericism, and continues to be studied and practiced by modern occultists and magicians.Of the Supreme Mysteries of Nature; of the Spirits of Planets; Secrets of Alchemy; Occult Philosophy; Signs of the Zodiack, Magical Cure of Diseases; and Celestial Medicines; Partial Contents: Of Simple Fire; Multiplicity of Fire; The Metals of the Planets; Spirit of the Sun; Moon, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn; Of Tinctures how they are made; Conjunction of Male and Female; To make the Furnace; To place the Fire; The Red Colour; Of Consecrations; Of Ceremonies Magical; Of Conjurations; Supernatural Diseases must have Supernatural Cures; Visions and Dreams; Dreams natural and Supernatural; Of Imagination; Of Hidden Treasure; The Abuse of Magick; Preservatives against Witchcraft; Manner of helping persons bewitched; Of the mystery of the twelve Signs; Celestial Medicines.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
