Book excerpt: Step into the world of an 18th century magician Ebenezer Sibly was an astrologer, an herbalist, a physician, and a magician. A copyist of grimoires, his library and manuscripts formed the basis for Frances Barrett's "The Magus". "The Station of Man in the Universe" collects Sibly's writings on how the magical universe is structured, what the nature of demons and angels are, what happens after death, and what the varieties of magic are, that are contained in his work "A New Complete Illustrated Guide to the Celestial Science of Astrology". Together, the essays provide a glimpse into the worldview of a magician who practiced Solomonic magic in the grimoire tradition of the late 18th century, before the Theosophical Society and the Golden Dawn.
