What if everything you thought you knew about Solomonic magic was wrong? In this video, I explore Gal Sofer’s groundbreaking study of Solomonic magic and why it changes the way we understand the Key of Solomon, the Goetia, and the wider grimoire tradition. Far from being a single, unified body of ancient magical wisdom, these texts emerge as a fluid network shaped by scribes, translations, and centuries of adaptation across Jewish, Christian, Arabic, Greek, and Latin traditions.

We will look at the real history behind Solomonic texts, the myth of the “original” grimoire, the Jewish roots of demon-summoning traditions, and why this matters not only for scholars of Western esotericism but also for contemporary practitioners. If you are interested in grimoires, ceremonial magic, the Key of Solomon, the Lesser Key, or the history of Western occultism, this episode will give you a much deeper understanding of what is really at stake.
