    About this ebook

    Read the book that your Imperator and Chief Adept does not want you to read.

    A startling revelation of the brilliant intersection of the magic of Aleister Crowley, his Thelemic philosophy, and the dark forbidden magic of the Necronomicon. Revealed at last, a dark episode of the history of the Freemasonic Order of the Golden Dawn, of its founder and Imperator, the genius MacGregor Mathers, his secret teacher the famed Lux E Tenebris, and the battle to control the forgotten secrets of the dreaded black grimoire, the Necronomicon.

    Read the book that everyone is losing their sanity over

    In this book, one will find the Thelemic phrases associated with the fifty Sumerian (Babylonian) names of the god, Marduk. This knowledge will super-charge your magical work with the dreaded black grimoire, the Necronomicon, making you feared and respected by magicians and witches everywhere.

    Learn the secret attributes of the fifty names of Marduk, and their connection with the dark Enochian magic of Doctor Dee and Edward Kelley.

    Recite the forbidden invocation of Marduk in its most complete form, lost since ancient Sumer and Babylon, and finally restored to its original full glory.

    Gaze upon proof that such knowledge was being utilized in the Freemasonic Golden Dawn, and its later offshoot, the Order of Thelemic Adepts, that the Golden Dawn was truly a magical Order, and not just a study group for occultists.

    Read the shocking exchange of letters between Freemasonic Golden Dawn founder, William Wynn Westcott, and Fräulein Sprengel that proves that Sprengel was everything that Westcott could wish for in a Secret Chief.

    “Coming soon—this exact same information packed in a convenient hundred dollar a month correspondence course!”— Jimmie Bob Beggains, Soar via Darkness Occult and Magic Emporium and Instructional Centre

    “I have not read this book either; yet I give it five stars because they mentioned Thelema.”—Shirley Temple

    “I met Gaius Corbin at a party, and he was the most learned and serious person there.

      The Anathema of the priest-scribe Azag Izura

      Onto they whom would rob the priest and scribe of Marduk, King of the Gods, who holds the darkness at bay, onto them robbers descends a curse. Do not rob the scribe; do not rob thy priest; give them their portion of Marduk’s offering. Let them eat of thy bread, of thy meat, of thy fruit; let them drink of thy wine and beer; let them spend thy gold, thy silver, thy copper. Onto they who practice robbery, and refuse to give Marduk’s scribe and priest their livelihood, upon thy fish-cheap thief and miser falls the terrible curse of Marduk, carried by his fifty names and symbols carved upon a cursing staff planted in the center of his domain, and written and contained in this scroll. From Marduk will descend destruction and distress; from Marukka comes a roiling cloud that steals all joy; from Marutukku comes the rise of bitter and hostile land spirits; Barashakushu will steal the sympathy and honor owed to thee; Lucaldimmfrankia will bring a mourning and sorrow; Nari-Lugalddimmukia will cause the earth to tremble and shake beneath thy feet; Asaruludu will rob one’s strength and health; Namru brings darkness and confusion; Asaru brings drought and unbearable heat; Asarualine will cause you to receive bad counsel and despair; Asarulimnunna brings imprisonment and taxes; Tutu brings rot and stench; Ziukkunna brings clouds and rains of fire; Ziku brings clouds of choking gas and acid rain; Agaku causes ghosts to rise and moan; Tuku will plant evil ones, shells of grief; Shazu reveals one’s transgressions; Zisi will quicken the mob; Sukrim reveals thy secrets and plans to thy enemies; Sukgurim conceals the sons of thy enemies; Zahrim will bring dishonor and anger your household gods; Zahgurim brings a clashing of swords; Enbilus will bring inspections and ruinous regulations; Epadun will chase away the rain; Enbilulu-Gugal brings famine; Hfgal brings beggers and hardship; Sirsir will steal thy grain and herd; Malak will anger horses and flip thy chariot; Gil sends swarms of rats, emptying thy silo; Gilma will burst one’s barrels and baths; Arilma will rob thy of one’s position; Zulum will bring chaos and sorrow; Mummu will create thunder and tsunami; Zulummar will weaken thee; Gishnumunas will bring foreigners to wreck havoc; Lugalafdubur will strengthen the sword arm of thy enemy; Pagalguenna will cause thy brothers to plot against thee; Lugaldurnah will lower thy standing; Aranunna will anger princes; Dunuduku will bring unhappy endings; Lugalkuduga brings indecision; Lugallanna turns goddesses against thee; Lugalucca will dull thy wit and conceal dangers; Irkingu will overthrow and imprison thee; Kinma will bring bad counsel and a rumbling of clouds; Esizkur will silence thy prayers;Gibil will dull thy sword and ax; Addu will bring dangerous beasts; Asharu destroys one’s destiny and damages thy fate; Nebiru will make you wander lost, unable to see thy guiding star;Minnuam will descend like madness—devouring all in his wake; all fifty names and symbols of Marduk will curse you if you abuse thy scribe and priest of Marduk. Do not anger Marduk; give his scribe and priest their just due.
