Hall and now at the Getty Research Institute, made by and for practitioners of Hermetic and ceremonial arts. The pages are pen-and-ink diagrams: concentric circles inscribed with spirit and angel names, quartered seals, crosses and sigils, usable as hand-drawn geometric borders and occult lettering.
