{ "item_title" : "The Book Of Forbidden Names", "item_author" : [" Nicholas Fraser "], "item_description" : "Names have always carried power.Across the temples of antiquity, the whispered chambers of mystics, the guarded pages of grimoires, and the hidden traditions of ceremonial magic, certain names were treated as more than ordinary words. They were believed to reveal divine authority, summon unseen forces, protect the soul, bind spirits, open doors to forbidden knowledge, and expose the secret structure of creation itself.The Book of Forbidden Names is a dark and atmospheric journey through the esoteric history of sacred, secret, angelic, demonic, and magical names. From ancient divine titles and hidden names of God to the feared names of demons, fallen angels, Watchers, spirits, rulers of the underworld, and mysterious beings recorded in occult manuscripts, Nicholas Fraser explores why names were guarded, disguised, invoked, feared, erased, and passed down through generations of initiates.This book examines the belief that to know a true name was to touch the essence of the thing named. In religious tradition, the name could become prayer. In magical practice, it could become command. In folklore, it could become protection. In darker occult systems, it could become a key to contact with dangerous powers. Through grimoires, angelologies, demonologies, Kabbalistic teachings, apocryphal writings, medieval magic, ancient myth, and occult philosophy, this work traces the long human fascination with words that were never considered merely human.The Book of Forbidden Names is not a simple catalogue of strange titles, but an exploration of secrecy, power, language, fear, reverence, and the ancient belief that some words should not be spoken lightly. It is a book for readers drawn to occult history, forbidden manuscripts, angelic and demonic lore, ceremonial magic, sacred language, hidden traditions, and the shadowed places where religion, mythology, and esotericism meet.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers1.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/819/992/9798199925860_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "13.99", "online_price" : "13.99", "our_price" : "13.99", "club_price" : "13.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
