HEPTAMERON
or Magical Elements of Peter de Abano
By Robert Turner
Author Bio: Robert Turner (fl. 1654–1665) was a 17th-century English astrologer and botanist who also translated and published influential occult texts in English. He is credited in traditional editions with rendering the Heptameron (attributed to Peter of Abano) into English, helping transmit Renaissance ceremonial-magic material to later readers.
Synopsis: Translated by Robert Turner. This grimoire is devoted to the angels of the seven days with diagrams of circles, magical sigils and conjurations of the ceremonial art. Magical images of the planets engraved by Bernhard Maler [1482] and tables showing correct planetary hours are included. The Arbatel offers seven sepentaries of aphorisms of a kind of Theophrastic Magic. The initial groups of these aphorisms serve to introduce the Ritual of the Olympic Spirits, dwelling in the firmament and in the stars of the firmament, between whom the government of the world is distributed.
