Tatsächlich ist es nahezu unmöglich, versehentlich einen Dämon zu beschwören. Man braucht Geduld, lange Stunden der Vorbereitung und man muss diverse Hilfsmittel akquirieren, was schon an und für sich eine ziemliche Herausforderung ist, da selbige monetär schnell auf dem Niveau eines guten Gebrauchtwagens landen. Wer also beispielsweise Andrealphus beschwören möchte, um Nachhilfe in Geometrie zu bekommen, der wäre wohl mit der örtlichen Mathelehrerin besser beraten, als mit einer ausgewachsenen Dämonenbeschwörung, denn bis du die seitenlange Invokationsformel auswendig gelernt und einen Löwenpelz akquiriert hast, hast du das mit der Geometrie im Frontalunterricht schneller begriffen, just sayin’.
Immer noch nicht abgeschreckt? Na schön, dann wollen wir mal:
Zuallererst sollten wir natürlich den Namen unseres Dämonen kennen, den wir gern beschwören möchten. Freundlicherweise hilft uns hier die Ars Goetia aus, indem sie uns eine praktische Liste sämtlicher namentlich bekannter Dämonen und ihrer Siegel liefert. Wir suchen uns also einen Dämon, der uns das geben kann, was wir möchten und finden dann im nächsten Schritt heraus, welchen Rang er oder sie hat.
Rang, fragst du? Richtig, Rang! Auch unter Dämonen gibt es nämlich eine Hierarchie, bestehend aus Königen, Herzogen, Prinzen/Prälaten, Markgrafen, Präsidenten, Grafen und einem einzigen bekannten Ritter.
Könige
Siegel aus Gold
1 - Bael, 9 - Paimon, 13 - Peleth, 20 - Purson, 32 - Asmoday, 45 - Vine, 51 - Balam, 61 - Zagan, 68 - Belial
Herzoge

Prinzen
Siegel aus Zinn
3 - Vassago, 12 - Sitri, 22 - Ipos, 33 - Gaap, 36 - Stolas, 55 - Orobas, 70 - Seere
Markgrafen
Siegel aus Silber
4 - Samigina, 7 - Amon, 14 - Leraje, 24 - Naberius, 27 - Ronove, 30 - Forneus, 35 - Marchosias, 37 - Phenex, 43 - Sabnock, 44 - Shax, 59 - Orias, 63 - Andras, 65 - Andrealphus, 66 - Cimeies, 69 - Decarabia
Präsidenten
Siegel aus Quecksilber
5 - Marbas, 10 - Buer, 17 - Botis, 21 - Marax, 25 - Glasya-Labolas, 31 - Foras, 33 - Gaap, 39 - Malphas, 48 - Haagenti, 53 - Caim, 57 - Ose, 58 - Amy, 61 - Zagan, 62 - Valac
Grafen
Siegel aus Kupfer oder Silber
17 - Botis, 21 - Marax, 25 - Glasya-Labolas, 27 - Ronove, 34 - Furfur, 38 - Halphas, 40 - Raum, 45 - Vine, 46 - Bifrons, 72 - Andromalius
Ritter
Siegel aus Blei
50 - Furcas
Wer aufmerksam gelesen hat, dem wird nun auffallen, dass sich oben Dopplungen eingeschlichen haben. Richtig, Vine ist sowohl König als auch Graf und Glasya-Labolas ist sowohl Präsident als auch Graf. In diesen Fällen müssen die Siegel mithilfe von Legierungen hergestellt werden. Die Siegel der Präsidenten werden gefertigt, indem man sie in Steine meißelt und das Quecksilber in die Rillen fließen lässt, da Quecksilber unter normalen Bedingungen flüssig ist.
Der Schutzkreis/Der magische Kreis des Solomon
Vereinfacht auch als Solomons Kreis bekannt, dient uns dieses praktische Hilfsmittel zum Schutz vor dem Zorn des Dämons, den wir beschwören wollen. Und das Schöne ist: Du brauchst keinerlei magische Kräfte, sondern nur Farbe, Pinsel, Verstand und ein wenigstens adäquates Zeichentalent (keine fünf oder schlechter in Kunst!).
Gelb für den Abstand zwischen dem inneren und äußeren Zirkel, in dem sich die Schlange windet, für die Dreiecke der Hexagramme und die Dreiecke der Pentagramme.
Rot für das Zentrum, in dem das Wort Meister geschrieben steht und für die Zentren der vier Pentagramme.
Schwarz für alle geschriebenen Worte.
Blau oder grün für das Innere des inneren Kreises und für die Zentren der Hexagramme.
Hexen haben hier den Vorteil, dass sie sich nicht mit dem Solomon-Schutzkreis herumschlagen müssen, wenn sie sich schützen wollen: Sie schützen sich mit ihrer Magie und können sich folglich also die ganze Zeichenarbeit sparen. Alle anderen haben leider persönliches Pech, wie es so schön heißt: Sie dürfen den Pinsel schwingen. Das ist ziemlich ärgerlich, das Ding ist nämlich verdammt kompliziert und nur ein Fehler kann katastrophale Folgen nach sich ziehen.
Nur, weil Hexen sich mit ihrer Magie schützen können, sind sie übrigens nicht von der Theorie gefeit: Jede Ausbilderin, die etwas auf sich hält, wird ihren Lehrlingen das richtige Zeichnen des Solomon-Schutzkreises beibringen. Hat schon so manche Junghexe in den Wahnsinn getrieben, das kannst du uns glauben.

Die erste Beschwörung
- I DO invocate and conjure thee, O Spirit, NAME*; and being with power armed from the SUPREME MAJESTY, I do strongly command thee, by BERALANENSIS, BALDACHIENSIS, PAUMACHIA, and APOLOGIAE SEDES; by the most Powerful Princes, Genii, Liachidæ, and Ministers of the Tartarean Abode; and by the Chief Prince of the Seat of Apologia in the Ninth Legion, I do invoke thee, and by invocating conjure thee. And being armed with power from the SUPREME MAJESTY, I do strongly command thee, by Him Who spake and it was done, and unto whom all creatures be obedient. Also I, being made after the image of GOD, endued with power from GOD and created according unto His will, do exorcise thee by that most mighty and powerful name of GOD, EL, strong and wonderful; O thou Spirit N. And I command thee and Him who spake the Word and His FIAT was accomplished, and by all the names of God. Also by the names ADONAI, EL, ELOHIM, ELOHI, EHYEH, ASHER EHYEH, ZABAOTH, ELION, IAH, TETRAGRAMMATON, SHADDAI, LORD GOD MOST HIGH, I do exorcise thee and do powerfully command thee, O thou Spirit N., that thou dost forthwith appear unto me here before this Circle in a fair human shape, without any deformity or tortuosity. And by this ineffable name, TETRAGRAMMATON IEHOVAH, do I command thee, at the which being heard the elements are overthrown, the air is shaken, the sea runneth back, the fire is quenched, the earth trembleth, and all the hosts of the celestials, terrestrials, and infernals, do tremble together, and are troubled and confounded. Wherefore come thou, O Spirit N., forthwith, and without delay, from any or all parts of the world wherever thou mayest be, and make rational answers unto all things that I shall demand of thee. Come thou peaceably, visibly, and affably, now, and without delay, manifesting that which I shall desire. For thou art conjured by the name of the LIVING and TRUE GOD, HELIOREN, wherefore fulfil thou my commands, and persist thou therein unto the end, and according unto mine interest, visibly and affably speaking unto me with a voice clear and intelligible without any ambiguity.

Die zweite Beschwörung
- I DO invocate, conjure, and command thee, O thou Spirit N., to appear and to show thyself visibly unto me before this Circle in fair and comely shape, without any deformity or tortuosity; by the name and in the name IAH and VAU, which Adam heard and spake; and by the name Of GOD, AGLA, which Lot heard and was saved with his family; and by the name IOTH, which Jacob heard from the angel wrestling with him, and was delivered from the hand of Esau his brother; and by the name ANAPHAXETON which Aaron heard and spake and was made wise; and by the name ZABAOTH, which Moses named and all the rivers were turned into blood; and by the name ASHER EHYEH ORISTON, which Moses named, and all the rivers brought forth frogs, and they ascended into the houses, destroying all things; and by the name ELION, which Moses named, and there was great hail such as had not been since the beginning of the world; and by the name ADONAI, which Moses named, and there came up locusts, which appeared upon the whole land, and devoured all which the hail had left; and by the name SCHEMA AMATHIA which Ioshua called upon, and the sun stayed his course; and by the name ALPHA and OMEGA, which Daniel named, and destroyed Bel, and slew the Dragon; and in the name EMMANUEL, which the three children, Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego, sang in the midst of the fiery furnace, and were delivered; and by the name HAGIOS; and by the SEAL 1 OF ADONI; and by ISCHYROS, ATHANATOS, PARACLETOS; and by O THEOS, ICTROS, ATHANATOS; and by these three secret names, AGLA, ON, TETRAGRAMMATON, do I adjure and constrain thee. And by these names, and by all the other names of the LIVING and TRUE GOD, the LORD ALMIGHTY, I do exorcise and command thee, O Spirit N., even by Him Who spake the Word and it was done, and to Whom all creatures are obedient; and by the dreadful judgments of GOD; and by the uncertain Sea of Glass, which is before the DIVINE MAJESTY, mighty and powerful; by the four beasts before the throne, having eyes before and behind; by the fire round about the throne; by the holy angels of Heaven; and by the mighty wisdom of GOD; I do potently exorcise thee, that thou appearest here before this Circle, to fulfil my will in all things which shall seem good unto me; by the Seal of BASDATHEA BALDACHIA; and by this name PRIMEUMATON, which Moses named, and the earth opened, and did swallow up Kora, Dathan, and Abiram. Wherefore thou shalt make faithful answers unto all my demands, O Spirit N., and shalt perform all my desires so far as in thine office thou art capable hereof. Wherefore, come thou, visibly, peaceably, and affably, now without delay, to manifest that which I desire, speaking with a clear and perfect voice, intelligibly, and to mine understanding.
Das Erzwingen
- I Do conjure thee, O thou Spirit N., by all the most glorious and efficacious names of the MOST GREAT AND INCOMPREHENSIBLE LORD GOD op HOSTS, that thou comest quickly and without delay from all parts and places of the earth and world wherever thou mayest be, to make rational answers unto my demands, and that visibly and affably, speaking with a voice intelligible unto mine understanding as aforesaid. I conjure and constrain thee, O thou Spirit N., by all the names aforesaid; and in addition by these seven great names wherewith Solomon the Wise bound thee and thy companions in a Vessel of Brass, ADONAI, PREYAI or PRERAI, TETRAGRAMMATON, ANAPHAXETON or ANEPHENETON, INESSENFATOAL or INESSENFATALL, PATHTUMON or PATHATUMON, and ITEMON; that thou appearest, here before this Circle to fulfil my will in all things that seem good unto me. And if thou be still so disobedient, and refusest still to come, I will in the power and by the power of the name of the SUPREME AND EVERLASTING LORD GOD WHO created both thee and me and all the world in six days, and what is contained therein, EIE, SARAYE, and by the power of this name PRIMEUMATON which commandeth the whole host of Heaven, curse thee, and deprive thee of thine office, joy, and place, and bind thee in the depths of the Bottomless Pit or Abyss, there to remain unto the Day of the Last Judgment. And I will bind thee in the Eternal Fire, and into the Lake of Flame and of Brimstone, unless thou comest quickly and appearest here before this Circle to do my will. Therefore, come thou! in and by the holy names ADONAI, ZABAOTH, ADONAI, AMIORAN. Come thou! for it is ADONAI who commandest thee.
Here followeth, therefore, the Invocation of the King:
Die Anrufung des Königs
- O THOU great, powerful, and mighty KING AMAIMON*, who bearest rule by the power of the SUPREME GOD EL over all spirits both superior and inferior of the Infernal Orders in the Dominion of the East; I do invocate and command thee by the especial and true name Of GOD; and by that God that Thou Worshippest; and by the Seal of thy creation; and by the most mighty and powerful name Of GOD, IEHOVAH TETRAGRAMMATON who cast thee out of heaven with all other infernal spirits; and by all the most powerful and great names of GOD who created Heaven, and Earth, and Hell, and all things in them contained; and by their power and virtue; and by the name PRIMEUMATON who commandeth the whole host of Heaven; that thou mayest cause, enforce, and compel the Spirit N. to come unto me here before this Circle in a fair and comely shape, without harm unto me or unto any other creature, to answer truly and faithfully unto all my requests; so that I may accomplish my will and desire in knowing or obtaining any matter or thing which by office thou knowest is proper for him to perform or accomplish, through the power of GOD, EL, Who created and doth dispose of all things both celestial, aërial, terrestrial, and infernal.
*Abhängig davon, wo der zu beschwörende Dämon seinen Sitz hat, wird hier sein König angerufen: Amaimon für den Osten, Gorson für den Süden, Zimimar für den Norden, Goap für den Westen
- O THOU wicked and disobedient spirit N., because thou hast rebelled, and hast not obeyed nor regarded my words which I have rehearsed; they being all glorious and incomprehensible names of the true GOD, the maker and creator of thee and of me, and of all the world; I DO by the power of these names the which no creature is able to resist, curse thee into the depth of the Bottomless Abyss, there to remain unto the Day of Doom in chains, and in fire and brimstone unquenchable, unless thou forthwith appear here before this Circle, in this triangle to do my will. And, therefore, come thou quickly and peaceably, in and by these names of GOD, ADONAI, ZABAOTH, ADONAI, AMIORAN; come thou! come thou! for it is the King of Kings, even ADONAI, who commandeth thee.
Die Anrufung des Feuers
- I CONJURE thee, O fire, by him who made thee and all other creatures for good in the world, that thou torment, burn, and consume this Spirit N., for everlasting. I condemn thee, thou Spirit N., because thou art disobedient and obeyest not my commandment, nor keepest the precepts of the LORD THY GOD, neither wilt thou obey me nor mine invocations, having thereby called thee forth, 1, who am the servant of the MOST HIGH AND IMPERIAL LORD GOD OF HOSTS, IEHOVAH, I who am dignified and fortified by His celestial power and permission, and yet thou comest not to answer these my propositions here made unto thee. For the which thine averseness and contempt thou art guilty of great disobedience and rebellion, and therefore shall I excommunicate thee, and destroy thy name and seal, the which I have enclosed in this box; and shall burn thee in the immortal fire and bury thee in immortal oblivion; unless thou immediately come and appear visibly and affably, friendly and courteously here unto me before this Circle, in this triangle, in a form comely and fair, and in no wise terrible, hurtful, or frightful to me or any other creature whatsoever upon the face of earth. And thou shalt make rational answers unto my requests, and perform all my desires in all things, that I shall make unto thee.
Der größere Fluch
- Now, O thou Spirit N., since thou art still pernicious and disobedient, and wilt not appear unto me to answer unto such things as I would have desired of thee, or would have been satisfied in; I do in the name, and by the power and dignity of the Omnipresent and Immortal Lord God of Hosts IEHOVAH TETRAGRAMMATON, the only creator of Heaven, and Earth, and Hell, and all that is therein, who is the marvellous Disposer of all things both visible and invisible, curse thee, and deprive thee of all thine office, joy, and place; and I do bind thee in the depths of the Bottomless Abyss there to remain until the Day of Judgment, I say into the Lake of Fire and Brimstone which is prepared for all rebellious, disobedient, obstinate, and pernicious spirits. Let all the company of Heaven curse thee! Let the sun, moon, and all the stars curse thee! Let the LIGHT and all the hosts of Heaven curse thee into the fire unquenchable, and into the torments unspeakable. And as thy name and seal contained in this box chained and bound up, shall be choken in sulphurous stinking substances, and burned in this material fire; so in the name IEHOVAH and by the power and dignity of these three names, TETRAGRAMMATON, ANAPHAXETON, and PRIMEUMATON, I do cast thee, O thou wicked and disobedient Spirit N., into the Lake of Fire which is prepared for the damnéd and accurséd spirits, and there to remain unto the day of doom, and never more to be remembered before the face of GOD, who shall come to judge the quick, and the dead, and the world, by fire.
Die Ansprache an den Dämon bei seinem Kommen
- BEHOLD thy confusion if thou refusest to be obedient! Behold the Pentacle of Solomon which I have brought here before thy presence! Behold the person of the exorcist in the midst of the exorcism; him who is arméd by GOD and without fear; him who potently invocateth thee and calleth thee forth unto appearance; even him, thy master, who is called OCTINIMOS. Wherefore make rational answer unto my demands, and prepare to be obedient unto thy master in the name of the Lord:
BATHAL OR VATHAT RUSHING UPON ABRAC!
ABEOR COMING UPON ABERER
(Latein: Bathal vel Vathat super Abrac ruens! Absor veniens super Aberer!)
Die Begrüßung des Dämons
- WELCOME Spirit N., O most noble king*! I say thou art welcome unto me, because I have called thee through Him who has created Heaven, and Earth, and Hell, and all that is in them contained, and because also thou hast obeyed. By that same power by the which I have called thee forth, I bind thee, that thou remain affably and visibly here before this Circle (or before this Circle and in this triangle) so constant and so long as I shall have occasion for thy presence; and not to depart without my license until thou hast duly and faithfully performed my will without any falsity.
*Oder welches auch immer sein Rang sei
- "BY TIME PENTACLE OF SOLOMON HAVE I CALLED THEE! GIVE UNTO ME A TRUE ANSWER."
And when the evocation is finished thou shalt license the Spirit to depart thus:
Die Erlaubnis zu Gehen
- O THOU Spirit N., because thou hast-diligently answered unto my demands, and hast been very ready and willing to come at my call, I do here license thee to depart unto thy proper place; without causing harm or danger unto man or beast. Depart, then, I say, and be thou very ready to come at my call, being duly exorcised and conjured by the sacred rites of magic. I charge thee to withdraw peaceably and quietly, and the peace of GOD be ever continued between thee and me I AMEN!
Also note! Thou mayest command these spirits into the Vessel of Brass in the same manner as thou dost into the triangle, by saying: "that thou dost forthwith appear before this Circle, in this Vessel of Brass, in a fair and comely shape," etc., as hath been shown in the foregoing conjurations.
