The most effective GoM book in my collection, hands-down.
A treasure for any occultist interested in the Goetia but who doesn't have a ton of familiarity or comfort with the great intricacies and complications of high ceremonial grimoire magic. I've been a practicing occultist for many years, but had declined to work with demons for a long time because of deeply-ingrained cultural baggage associated with the word. Reminding myself of the origin of the word (an ancient Greek word, "daemon", simply meaning "spirit") and speaking to many trusted friends I know who have worked with these spirits before, I read the reviews of this book and the testimonials in Gallery of Magick groups on Facebook. I bit the bullet and decided to make the minimal investment to check this out. I couldn't be more pleased that I did. Gordon Winterfield presents his techniques and text in a well-written, thoughtful, detailed manner that's enjoyable and easy to understand. An opening ritual with similarities to the well-known LBRP rite is provided for protection and authority before performing the operations to petition the demons, so you're not going in carelessly without preparation. In the several months that I've had this book, I have now embarked on 4 rituals with 3 different demons. The matters at hand were love/lust related and money related. Both Sallos and Sitri responded with signs of success within a week or two and with both of those, manifestations of the requested results were showing fabulous fruition within about three weeks. I also petitioned Bune to obtain a not-small amount of extra money needed within a couple of months for an important personal need. It has only been 3 weeks and I am already more than halfway to my goal, gaining money from a huge increase in clients in my side business as well as through a few generous gifts. I have zero doubt that this petition will even exceed my needs. I used Ritual One provided in the book for all of these petitions and it was a comfortable simple process that took far less time than you'd think. I found nothing frightening at all in my experiences with these spirits and the "payments" suggested for the results are incredibly easy, low-risk, and straightforward. Nothing to fear at all. I'm so very happy with my choice to use this book from Gallery of Magick and I have now recommended it to a number of people. Hail Sitri, hail Sallos, hail Bune! And hail Gordon Winterfield too.
