Stellar Magic by Payam Nabarz A Practical Guide to Rites of the
Moon, Planets, Stars and Constellations The practical rites and
ceremonies in this Liber Astrum are created using a myriad of hymns
and tales, drawing inspiration and material from many ancient,
classical and medieval sources including: the Hymns of Orpheus,
Ovid's Metamorphoses, Plato's Timaeus, the Hermetica: The Greek
Corpus Hermeticum and the Latin Asclepius, the Greek Magical
Papyri, the Chaldean Oracles, the Persian Shah Nameh 'Epic of
Kings' by Ferdowsi, Scipio's Dream by Cicero, the Persian Pahlavi
Texts, book of Enoch, Bible Ezekiel chapter, Egyptian temples and
texts, The Golden Ass by Lucius Apuleius, the Zoroastrian Yasht
hymns, Sufi works of Ibn Arabi and Rumi, the Kabalistic Sefer
Yetzirah, the Mithras Liturgy, Persian Burj Nameh, the Picatrix,
Hesiod Works and Days, Homer's The Odyssey, Porphyry's On the Cave
of the Nymphs and Aratus' Phaenomena. In bringing these ancient
rites into modern times, stellar related material and ideals by
modern poets such as WB Yeats, Robert Graves, Sylvia Plath, and
esoteric writers such as John Milton, John Dee, Elias Ashmole,
Francis Barrett, Rudolf Steiner, Aleister Crowley, Gerald Gardner
have also been included, giving a Bardic blend of the ancient and
the modern. The rites here 'set the scene' and after all the poems
and invocations are uttered, the point is reached in the rite where
the magus has to make his/her direct connection, and to draw
inspiration from the stellar well directly. The rites here are the
beginning steps on your stellar journey, it is recommended that you
write your own poems and invocations to the constellations and make
your Path to the stars. This is a highly accessible, succinct and
practical book on this complex subject. It is written in such a way
that it can be used as a manual and workbook for practicing stellar
magic or simply read for gaining insight into star lore. --------
