The Luxarion Book of the Secrets of Letters and Magic Squares
$1000Every letter has a number, a nature, a star and an angel. This is the book that teaches how the masters read them.
The manuscript. Qabas al-Anwar wa Jami al-Asrar, The Kindled Light and the Gathered Secrets: a handwritten Arabic manuscript in black and red ink, its headings and its tables drawn in red, with a later reader's notes in the margins. Its title page names its author as the shaykh Abu al-Hajjaj Yusuf ibn Ali al-Maghribi. Luxarion now opens it for the first time.
The letters. The 28 letters of the alphabet, as many as the mansions of the Moon, and the fourteen luminous letters that open the suras of the Quran. Their natures of fire, air, water and earth, as four schools ordered them, and the sign the author gives each of his masters, al-Buni, Ibn Arabi, Ibn Sabin and al-Harrali, so that you always know whose method you are following. Then the letters one by one, with what Ibn Arabi, Ibn Sabin and the author himself say of each.
The heavens. The letters divided among the 28 mansions of the Moon, the twelve signs and the planets, in great talisman tables drawn in red, after the sages of India and Greece and after the masters who followed them. How the ascendant of a name is found. The angels of the letters, of the four natures, of the signs and of the planets, and the way the author draws them out.
The Names. The Most Beautiful Names of God, gathered letter by letter, each with the virtue the masters gave it and the manner of its invocation: the hour, the fumigation, the ring, the number of repetitions.
The squares. How a name is expanded and broken into its letters, then set in a square. Letter squares from four to ten, built by the moves of the chessboard, the knight's leap and the ferz's step. Numerical magic squares from three to ten, the bordered squares, the balances and the balance of Jabir ibn Hayyan, and the virtue the masters gave each square, up to the square of ten, which the book calls the greatest and most complete of the figures.
The world. The virtues the old books gave to animals and birds, to plants, to precious stones from the ruby to jade, and to the metals. Then nine scripts attributed to the ancient sages, the secret alphabets in which hidden things were written, and the timing of the work: the auspicious and the inauspicious hours, the empty and the full days, the fumigations of the planets.
