ABC Illustrated of Occultism offers a broad and structured synthesis of the work carried out by Papus throughout his life. Reissued in its original early 20th-century version, this posthumous work presents the author's thoughts without filter or modern rewriting. The text goes back in time to trace the evolution of occult traditions, from ancient Egypt to the modern era, following a clear and continuous historical thread.
A historical journey through occult traditions
The book explores the origins of the Tradition and the gradual development of occult sciences through the centuries. It covers the major disciplines that structure this heritage, such as cosmogony, astrology, divinatory arts, and magic. Each theme finds its place in a coherent overall vision, allowing readers to understand how these fields were formed, transmitted, and transformed over time.
A reference for understanding the continuity of knowledge
This book sheds light on the role these disciplines have played within successive initiatory currents, showing their historical links and correspondences. Papus’s approach provides solid landmarks to grasp the continuity of this knowledge and its internal organization. The work is aimed at those who wish to progress with a clear understanding of this heritage and place occult sciences within a broad and structured historical perspective.
Papus, the pseudonym of Gérard Encausse (1865-1916), is a major figure in 19th-century French occultism. Trained as a physician, he was also a writer, lecturer, and esotericist. Passionate about spirituality, he became one of the main promoters of Hermeticism, Theosophy, and Kabbalah in France.
A prolific author, Papus wrote numerous works, including "Methodical Treatise on Practical Magic" and "The Science of the Magi", which remain key references in esotericism. He is also the founder of the Martinist Order, an initiatory organization dedicated to transmitting the mystical teachings of Louis-Claude de Saint-Martin.
Playing a key role in the revival of occult traditions in Europe, he left his mark on his era through his scholarship and commitment to making spirituality accessible to all.
Here, we don’t judge.
No matter where you come from, what you believe in, or what you’re looking for: you belong here. You can be a beginner, curious, a casual practitioner, or a daily witch. What matters is sincere intention.
We believe in all forms of magic.
High magic and its rigorous rituals deserve as much respect as spells passed down in the countryside. We read grimoires, respect rites, listen to old stories. Everything practiced with faith deserves serious and curious attention.
We welcome all traditions.
We don’t put one path above another. We talk hoodoo, kabbalah, Christian prayers, elemental magic, folk rituals, Celtic symbols. What matters is respect. Not the label.
We work cleanly.
Each package is carefully prepared by us, here in France. Before shipping, it is purified so it arrives at your home cleansed and positively charged. We strive to use recyclable packaging and reduce our impact as much as possible.
We stay available.
