Demons from the Goetia and their Sigils

The demons’ names (given below) are taken from the Ars Goetia, which differs in terms of number and ranking from the Pseudomonarchia Daemonum of Weyer. As a result of multiple translations, there are multiple spellings for some of the names, which are given in the articles concerning them. The demons Vassago, Seere, Dantalion, and Andromalius are new additions in Ars Goetia that are not present in the Pseudomonarchia Daemonum that it is based upon, whereas the demon Pruflas appears in the Pseudomonarchia Daemonum but not in Ars Goetia.

The following images are used for magical purposes, they are attributed as signatures of demons from the Goetia.

The 72 angels of the Shem HaMephorash are considered the opposite and balancing force against these demons.

If you intend to call any evil spirit, you must know the seal of this spirit, which you must draw on parchment during the ritual. The following pictures show the seal of evil spirits from the Goetia.

Takeaway

If you intend to call a spirit, you should study the composition of a circle in the first place. Traditionally, circles form a protective barrier between the magician and the demon. The greatest power is attributed to the circles, for they are certain fortresses to defend the operators safe from the evil spirits. A circle is not a symbol of fear of spirits, but an intentionally created ritual space for various purposes. It is not always required for all kinds of ritual work, but if you summon a spirit it is obligatory.
