I want to celebrate the full fledged launching of the Complete Picatrix, now ?official? with an ISBN, and available on Amazon! or the Renaissance Astrology website, Complete Picatrix
The Complete Picatrix will now be available in several newly revised editions, the Liber Atratus, ?the Black Book? which is the edition available on Amazon, the Liber Viridis ?the Green Book? our Green Magic edition (keep reading for info on the new Green Magic Mini-Course!) and the Liber Rubeus, ?The Red Book?.
Each of these editions contains our authoritative complete translation of Pingree?s critical edition of the Latin Picatrix, but each edition adds its special material and has a different look.
The Liber Atratus and Liber Rubeus use black letter decorative fonts and woodblock engravings for a ?goth? medieval look. The Liber Atratus adds a section on astrological poisons from Ibn Washiyya?s Book of Poisons. The Liber Rubeus adds a rather macabre section on the creation of a divinatory head.
The Liber Viridis uses Renaissance calligraphic display fonts and lavish foliage illustrations for a more Renaissance, ?florid? look. The Liber Viridis adds a Green Magic introduction and special Green Magic Index.
Everyone that pre-orders through the Renaissance Astrology website before August 27, 2011 either the Liber Atratus, Liber Viridis, Green Magic Mini-Course or Liber Rubeus will get two free Picatrix pdf books.
The first free pdf is ?Sigils from the Arabic Picatrix? this is 8.5 x 11 with 15 pages of sigils from the Arabic Picatrix. Very interesting and useful to compare with the sigils in the Latin Picatrix.
Second free pdf is the 77 page, ?Picatrix Selected Translations? this contains selected Picatrix translations, some from the Arabic Picatrix, but more importantly my commentary on significant passages.
Here?s the standard order info, but if you already bought a copy of our translation of Picatrix Books I & II or the blue version of our complete Picatrix translation, keep reading for a GREAT deal!
The Liber Atratus is available from Amazon and from the Renaissance Astrology website Liber Atratus
The Liber Viridis is available only from the Renaissance Astrology website
Liber Viridis
As part of the Picatrix full launch extravaganza I am also introducing the new Green Magic Mini-Course. This course is an introduction to using traditional astrology and astrological magic for planting, harvesting and ecological magic through the Moon and her phases, Mansions and in the signs. The Green Magic Mini-Course also discusses how to use planetary rulerships and advanced Green Magic.
The Green Magic Mini-Course on CD includes a free copy of the Complete Picatrix Liber Viridis Green Magic edition, plus TPHP, the planetary hours program and Mansion Tracker, lunar mansions software. It also includes over 1000 pages of material on traditional gardening with traditional green magic material. The normal cost will be $69.95 plus shipping, you can order here
The Liber Rubeus is only available from the Renaissance Astrology website and only available intermittently on special request. Liber Rubeus orders will only be initiated when the Moon is in her 5th Mansion and each Mansion set will bear the date of its initiation.
You can order the Liber Rubeus here, Order before August 20, 2011 to catch the August 21-22 Moon in the 5th Mansion
If you have a copy of the earlier blue version of the Complete Picatrix with Nigel Jackson?s illustrations, you are in luck because this first edition is now out of print! You can expect to see the price increase as the antiquarian booksellers start jacking up the price.
But I have an even better deal. If you already bought a copy of our translation of Picatrix Books I & II or the blue version of our complete Picatrix translation you get an additional $10 off if you pre-order through the Renaissance Astrology website before August 27, 2011 either the Liber Atratus, Liber Viridis, Green Magic Mini-Course or Liber Rubeus.
E-mail me at [email protected] and let me know the approximate date and e-mail address you used when you bought Picatrix Books I & II or the blue version complete Picatrix from me or just tell me the 2nd word in the 2nd chapter of the 2nd book of Picatrix. I will then e-mail you the special discount order page!
So let?s recap, new versions of the Complete Picatrix + Green Magic Mini-Course, free pdfs if you pre-order before August 27th and special $10 discount for pre-orders if you already bought a copy of our earlier editions! These special deals are not available if you order the Liber Atratus through Amazon, the special deals are just for orders through the Renaissance Astrology website!
