Introduction
My earliest experiments with the occult at around the
age of twelve were with the lesser Key of Solomon, the
Goetia. Indeed there are a few hidden places that even
now if you were to visit you can still see the trace remains
of symbols and circles adorning the concrete on which
they were painted those many years ago,
I have for may years returned to the Goetic Arts as a
source of inspiration. It has taken a lot of soul searching
to create a routine for performance based around this
ancient magick. My reasons are my own, but I will share
them as the Goetia is not a trifle curio of medieval magic
to be toyed with at a bizarrist will. The symbols and
ceremonies of the Goetia represent an inner journey, an
unlocking of all that is bad and good within us, through
ritual and evocation. Some will say that such things are
nonsense yet there very workings underpin so much of
therapeutic practice today. To seek the self made
perfect one must banish and control all demons, as did
Solomon when he locked them away within the brazen
vessel. Be sure that when working this rite that you are
of sound mind and that those you choose to volunteer
are well chosen. Some keys open doors we never wished
to glance through.
8
It has been a great pleasure in bringing this routine
together. Yes it needs some props making, indeed it also
takes a lot of nerve to perform it.
This could be made part of an evening of bizarre magic,
or performed on its own for small groups. Do not under
estimate the ability of this routine to unnerve some
people, because of this I know some of you will read it
and never use it. Also I say read between the lines, the
essence of this routine can be applied to other
situations, routines with great results. I will not spell out
for you how as it is said that we have to suffer to learn
and so it is down to you to go on that journey and the
experience the failures and success that it contains.
For now I will leave it at that. Do take heed and use this
routine wisely. For some magics are real

Concerning the Spirits of the Brazen
Vessel
Solomon the King of Israel, according to a well-known
legend, shut up in a brass vessel seventy-two spirits and
cast the vessel into a deep lake.
When the vessel was discovered by the Babylonians, it
was supposed to contain a great treasure and was
accordingly broken open. The spirits who were thus set
at liberty, together with their legions, returned to their
former places.
All that is except Belial, who entered into a certain
image, and gave oracles to the people of the country in
return for sacrifices and divine honours, by which there is
corrupt Kabalistic authority for concluding that demons
were assuaged and sustained.
Within these pages of this accursed book, thou shalt find
ways of Goetic Theurgy that once again these spirits
may speak to us.
10
The Telling
The Magus introduces himself, giving a little background
and expressing what a pleasure it is to be sharing this
extraordinary evening with everyone.
He tells the tale of King Solomon and the Spirits of the
Brazen Vessel letting people know that tonight they will
be attempting to make contact with at least one of these
spirits.
Upon a table are a number of objects, a brass vessel, a
bowl of water and what looks like a triangular picture
frame covered in a black cloth.
On another table is but a glass and a candle.
Before we go any further we need to awaken our higher
aspects. For this way when we connect with the spirits
later we will have the protection of the divine within.
11
Asking all to place their hands together the Magus calls
out.
Thee we invoke the Bornless One. Thou art man
made perfect that no man has head at any time, you are
he whom the winds fear. Hear us and make all subject
onto us that every spell, scourge and protection of the
Vast One be made obedient onto us.
He then asks the people assembled to start to repeat in
their minds
I invoke thee.
Explaining that as they do this they well start to feel a
change in their consciousness that as that power starts
to pour down upon us this will affect each person
differently. For some they will feel calm, for others maybe
a slight giddiness and for others they will discover that
the power now holds them tight, so tight that there
prayerful hands will not separate, that they are bound
together by the power of the Bornless One. The
Magus asks for those who feel the power to let
themselves be known. Three people are chosen to come
up to assist.
The Magus shows a number of papers with symbols and
names of spirits upon them. They are folded and placed
12
in a bag and one of the spectators selects a slip, the
identity of the spirit is kept secret and the slip sealed in
an envelope and placed in view of the audience.
The Magus now goes over to the mysterious covered
object, pulling away the cloth he reveals a triangular
mirror with strange words written upon its frame.
Behold the triangle of Art. For many years occultists
believed that it was a symbol to be drawn upon the
ground, but through my studies I discovered that it is a
mirror to be made. When such a mirror is made a spirit will
inhabit the magic glass and that spirit will then be of
service to the magus. This I discovered quite by accident
at a sance where the mirror was present. The spirits
that night seemed to be acting differently, it was only
when asked to manifest their presence in some way that
the mirror tipped over and the association was made. To
continue we need to see if the spirit of this mirror is with
us.
The Magus brings the table with glass and candle to the
front and in line with the mirror. Instructing the volunteers
in the ways of glass moving they stand in position as the
Magus calls to the spirit of the mirror to let all assembled
know that it is present. The glass starts to move, the
spirit is with us.
13
After a little while the glass moving is ended and the
table moved aside. The Magus thanks two of his
volunteers and asks them to return to their seats. One of
them with the envelope.
A chair is set up facing the mirror. The Magus
introduces
In all acts of magic when it comes to Spirit work we need
our medium. I now ask of you to sit down in front of the
mirror. And gaze through the candle flame, deep into the
mirror, almost like you are trying to see what lies behind it.
Once seated we will ask the spirit of the mirror reach
forth and connect with you. You will find you have a deep
connection to the mirror and that the longer you gaze
there on the harder it will be to look away or move.
All lights are extinguished accept the candle by the
mirror all are asked to remain quiet.
The volunteer sits and faces the mirror. The Magus
talks to them and they slowly discover that they are
unable to move their gaze; the mirror has indeed fixated
them.
Focusing now on the medium the Magus builds the
connection to the mirror, the volunteer discovers that
they are no longer able to move their body as the spirit of
the mirror connects with them.
14
Once the connection is established the Magus explains
that we will now call upon the spirits of the brazen, that
our medium will see, get impressions of and also even hear
the name of the Spirit. He also lets the medium know
that they may experience feelings of discomfort, possible
touches, even a fear and desire to get up and break the
connection but they will find themselves unable to move
until the Magus releases them.
The Magus calls to the spirits of the Brazen Vessel,
asking one of them to join us through the mirror. To make
that link with us and be with us. The magus tells the
spectator that even though they are immobile they can
still talk and asks them to start describing any feelings,
sounds, impressions they are getting.
The volunteer starts to tell the audience what they are
seeing, what they are feeling. At some point they
struggle, the Magus asks them to really focus in now on
how they see the spirit, what they look like. Eventually
culminating in a name being given.
Shortly after this point that Magus commands the spirit
depart, threatening to seal him up as did Solomon in the
Brazen Vessel. The spirit departs and the volunteer is
slowly able to move again. The mirror is covered
15
Once the volunteer is settled and refreshed, the Magus
thanks all for attending, talks about the experience and
then remembers the envelope that one of the volunteers
has. The Volunteer in the audience is asked to stand,
open the envelope and read out the details on the paper.
The Name of the Spirit, the description given all match
that which the medium had given.
The Magus thanks everyone and wishes them a good
night,
16
The Preparation
The Spirits.
At the back of this book you will find the symbols names
and a brief description of twenty one of the spirits of the
brazen vessel. These can be copied from the book, or if
you go online you will be able to download them from
various sites, some of which I will mention at the end of
the book.
You will need to have twenty of them made up that are
different, and a duplicate of one of the spirits.
Throughout this routine we shall use the spirit Sitri as
the forced spirit. These will be used for a billet switch.
Now I know it is not for everyone, but the way I work this
is with a little pre show work. As the guests arrive I will
mingle and chat. I am looking to find someone who will
respond well to the suggestive aspects of this routine. I
use a small ring binder notepad and make it into a forcing
pad by writing the names of various spirits on every other
page and the spirit I wish to force on the others, I will
include a small description of the spirit. A small hand held
pad which flips over at the top is perfect.
17
So page 1 may say Amon, page two Sitri, page three
Barbatos, page four Sitri, page five Valefor page 6
Sitri etc. By cutting the repeated force page slightly
shorter it means that when I flick through front to back I
show different spirits, when back to front no matter
where they stop they will choose the name of the spirit I
wish to force.
Once this is made up I will decorate the cover to make it
look suitably strange. Once I have my chosen one I will
ask them if they would mind helping out with the show. I
show them the pad and point out the different names.
Then I will tell them I am going to flick through and they
are to say stop at any point. I will then proceed and once
a page is selected tear out that page and give to the
person to look after and ask them to remember as much
details as possible.
The other bit of preshow work is that once your
volunteer has the piece of paper you give them the
following instruction.
I want you to remember these details, and later on when
I invite you up I will ask you at one point to sit and look at
something . Do not get up or move from the chair until I
tell you the Spirit is gone! Is that clear, not until the spirit
is gone.
18
Spirit Names part two.
Once on stage you need to do a second force. You will
have your volunteer from before the show and two others
on stage. Ask the other two volunteers to take a look at
the pieces of paper with the spirits names on. Ask them
to fold them up and then to select one of them. You take
this from them and place the slip into an envelope that is
then sealed and handed to one of them to keep safe.
Just before you take the slip you retrieve the duplicate
one from the pocket that you had it ready in and use your
favourite method for switching the billet. I personally will
just use a false transfer with the other billet ready in the
receiving hand. Simple and effective.
You seal the duplicate, force spirit into the envelope. So
you then have a spectator with an envelope and a
spectator with a piece of paper, both saying the same
name. This sets up a dual reality which gives a couple of
possible finishes. To learn more about dual reality I
would recommend the materials of Kenton Knepper.
(See Bibliography for the books Kenton recommends.)
19
Glass Moving.
For this part you need a table with a very smooth finish
and a glass. I use a wine glass that I obtained from the Isle
of Glencoe Hotel. I had performed a sance there to
test the theory that if something that is thought of, like a
character in a book and enough energy invested into it
then in theory it can exist on the astral plane. In which
case we can contact that thought form entity. So I
provided for 300 Harry Potter fans the Dumbledore
Sance, and yes he did come though, hence the glass.
For this part I can refer you to no better guide to glass
moving than that covered by Paul Voodini in the
Paranormal Entertainer.
Whether you believe you are really contacting spirits, or
whether you accept the psychological explanations the
one thing is that it works, and is powerful.
More on glass moving later.
20
The Magic Mirror
The mirror is the part of this that you may need to spend
a little time in construction with. If you take a look at the
above image the mirror I use I was fortunate enough to
discover in a charity shop. With a lick of pain and the
application of the correct words it was good to go.
You may be fortunate to find one in a shop, or you may
discover one online. Alternatively you can either make
one or get a frame maker to build the frame and get the
21
glass or mirror cut for it. Mine is an equilateral triangle
each side being two foot.
This mirror has a normal mirrored glass in it. You could
alternatively get a piece of clear glass cut for it and spray
the one side with a matt black paint; this creates a
wonderful surface to scry on.
The words should be printed as in the picture.
Tetragrammaton
Anaphaxeton
Primeumaton.
For this part of the routine you will also need a few
candles, I use either one or three. These sit in front of
the mirror.
22
Check List for Routine.
Billets with spirit names + one duplicate
Bowl/ bag for billets
Force pad or your favourite spirit to force the spirit name
pre show.
Candles, at least one by the mirror.
Chair
Mirror.
Table
Glass
Envelope.
You can add into that a brass vessel, other magickal
looking equipment. These are all trapping and can be
great fun but are not needed.
23
The Rite.
The pre show work done as stated in preparation. I will
break the routine into its individual sections.
The protection:
Thee I invoke the Bornless One.
At the heart of it this is a suggestion test used in
hypnosis. You are not going to get everyone with it, but
enough will respond to kick off this routine with a suitably
large helping of oddness. I will not go into the ins and
outs of hypnotism. I would strongly recommend the work
of the Head Hacking team for a sound grounding in the
subject.
I would use something along the following lines, after I
had said the invocation I would continue as follows
Now I would like each and everyone of you to start
repeating over in your minds I invoke thee. As you do
this be aware of an energy, presence descending around
you, it holds you and protects you. I am not asking you to
believe this but to do this as it will work for you. You feel
that energy holding you closer, it seems to focus at the
tips of your fingers. You feel that so strong now that as
24
you try and separate your hands you find that they are
being held, the spirit of protection holding you fast. The
more you try and separate them the more you know that
you are protected and your hands stay stuck tight
How does this work, I put it down myself to an
unquestioning belief that it will. The suggestion will not
register if you do not deliver it with absolute confidence.
Once you have members of your audience select two
random spectators and your pre show spectator to join
you on the stage, up front. Instruct any others that you
will release them, to take a deep breath and they will find
that the energy releases them and they can now separate
their hands.
Selecting the Spirit
The bulk of this part has been covered. You get one of
your volunteers to check the papers to make sure that
they are as you described. They are placed in a bowl/
bag and mixed up. The other (not preshow) spectator
selects one, it is passed to you, you grab the envelope
and whilst doing this perform your favourite billet switch.
Placing the forced spirit billet in the envelope, what I will
do is go to put it in, then as an afterthought get the
spectator to sign the billet and put it in the envelope
themselves. This later can be named as the signed billet
25
that the spectator put in the envelope which draws all
attention away from the fact that you ever touched it.
Glass Moving.
You uncover the magick mirror and explain about how
there is a spirit connected to with it who will act as the
keeper of the gate whilst we attempt to make contact with
one of the spirits of the brazen vessel.
To connect with the spirit we will use an old tried and
tested method of communication. You bring forth the
table, glass and candle. Dim the lighting.
Placing it centre stage you ask each of your performers
to stand around it. One either side and one at the back
so as audience can see what is happening.. Instruct them
to lightly place their fingers on the glass, to focus on the
centre of the glass and picture in their minds a flow of
energy coming down from above through their heads and
down into the glass, asking the audience for their focus
and energy, call out to the spirit of the mirror. Invite him to
communicate with you through the glass, to move the
glass, using everyone in the rooms energy. Now wait, the
glass will move, you may need to add a little
encouragement along the way. We are not after great
lengths of communication. Encourage the glass to move
and it will move, once it starts ask the spirit to build its
26
strength and explore the table and when he is ready to
work with us this night to move the glass to the candle.
Once the glass has moved to the candle thank the spirit,
asking him to return to the mirror. And allow your
volunteers to lift their fingers.
Remember this is not a huge demonstration of glass
moving, it is used in this routine to push peoples mind
more in the direction of the impossible. Bits of paper,
chosen names can make people think tricks, a glass
moving on a table brings up the possibility of this being
real. Make sure that you get your volunteers to describe
their experience re-affirming that they were not pushing
it.
Should the Glass not move try swapping peoples
positions, swap over two of the volunteers keeping your
pre-show volunteer, Or ask them to start moving it and
instruct the spirit to stop the glass or go to the candle
when he is ready to work with you.
For more on glass moving again I return you to the work
of Paul Voodini.
Once you have completed this part of the routine send
your two none preshow volunteers back to the audience
making sure the one has the envelope.
27
The Spirit in the Mirror
Having told your audience that the volunteer left on
stage is to be your medium. You sit them in front of the
mirror, lighting the candle in front of the mirror, dim the
lights more or completely turn them off depending on size
of venue.
This part is a mixture of suggestion, bringing into play
your preshow work and basically working your volunteer.
When you pre-showed your volunteer you gave them the
instruction that at some point they would be seated and
to not stand up until you tell the spirit to go.
This is now the time to work this. They also have the
name of a spirit that has apparently been chosen at
random by them, the audience is not aware of this, but the
audience are aware that there is a person amongst them
holding an envelope that has an apparently freely chosen
spirit named within it.
So all is set or the revelation. We just need to play the
scene a while.
Once the spectator is seated gazing at the mirror you
can continue as follows.
28
Ladies and gentlemen I would ask you remain quiet
throughout the next part of this evening, remember you
are protected and that you are safe.
Addressing volunteer.
I want you to gaze through the candle flame into the
mirror, as though there is something important that you
need to see hidden beyond the mirror, do not focus on
the glass, but look to a point beyond it.
As you do this you start to notice how the normal
boundaries of your body and mind start o become
blurred, the room about you seems to melt away and
there is just you and the mirror. Looking deeper as you
try to move you discover that you cannot stand up, that
you are locked into the mirror, that no matter how much
you may feel like you could that UNTIL THE
SPIRIT IS GONE you are bound to the mirror and
the chair.
As you gaze deeper you start to notice in your minds eye
images appearing as though within the mirror. I want you
to start to describe what you are seeing.
Allow volunteer to talk.
29
I am now going to call to the spirits of the brazen,
although you may feel the need to look away you must
hold that contact and indeed will find that your gaze is
fixed. Know that you are safe and that you can do this,
O spirits of the Brazen Vessel we call to you. Send
forth now a representative, to appear in the mirror for us
to see this evening.
Addressing spectator
I want you to describe the images you see, (spectator
does so, as they continue start to direct them towards
images connected with the description of spirit forced on
them. This may go as such.)
You are now starting to experience the presence of the
spirit, as you gaze into the mirror the spirit that you have
in your mind starts to appear for you, you can describe
the spirit. ( allow then to do so, keep re-affirming their
descriptions, depending on how comfortable you are with
this you can actually work you spectator up to quite a
pitch.)
Now I want you to focus on the name of the spirit as we
ask it to fully let its presence known to us, it is like you
have always known this name and carried it with you all
the time.
30
( the last bit in bold is the instruction for the spectator to
name the spirit that they selected before the show.)
Once the spectator reveals the name of the Spirit you
can wrap up this section. Instruct the spirit to depart.
Make sure that your spectator is ok, this is most
important. To many magicians treat their volunteers as
props, they are people, love them.
The Final Revelation.
Once you have your spectator cared for it is time to
summarise the evening. Recap the tale of the Spirits of
the Brazen Vessel. And reveal the final part of the
routine.
We have tonight reached beyond the veil, to try and see
if the Spirits are more than just a take in an old grimoire.
Out of the seventy two spirits we wanted to reach and
make contact with just the one. I believe that we have
been successful with that. I do not ask you to believe,
just to know that what has happened, happened and that
you have been part of an extraordinary experiment. Our
wonderful medium revealed to us the name of a spirit, with
some description as to its appearance. I ask our
volunteer in the audience with the envelope to rejoin me
31
on the stage with the envelope. Earlier on you signed
and sealed your choice of spirit in the envelope, as of yet
none of us have seen what is written. Please, open the
envelope. Read aloud for us the slip inside.
The spectator reads the paper inside, the details and
name match the very same spirit that the other volunteer
had revealed through the mirror.
Thank all you volunteers, your guests and bid them all a
good night!
32
Some Thoughts
Outs So what if the pre-show volunteer forgets the
details of the spirit that they chose.
I find they never completely forget, and so if they come
up with one matching description and a name that sounds
similar you still have a hit.
If they remember some or all you have a great result. The
audience go away believing that they have seen one of
their own speak to ancient spirits and reveal the
unknowable. The medium volunteer goes away not
knowing how on earth the spirit they chose matched the
other selection
If they forget completely then make more of what they
are seeing in the mirror, use suggestion to manifest
different reactions from your volunteer.
Once that section is done you can let everyone know
that before we started this you had the volunteer pick a
spirit, what was the spirit they chose. They get their
card and read the details, when the audience member
33
reveals their choice you still have a pretty damn good
finish to the evening.
This routine has the potential to weird people out, if you
can deal with that then enjoy it. If you are not feeling
comfortable then maybe it is not for you, in which case
you have still got ideas, tools and possibilities to take
away from the routine which I hope you have great fun
with.
Until next time thank you for buying this booklet and
