Buy Bewitchments and Exorcisms Throughout the Ages from our esoteric shop
A prominent figure in Parisian literary and occult circles in the early 20th century, Anne Osmont devotes this work to the history of bewitchment, its principles, and the methods traditionally used to defend against it. The author traces the magical beliefs of ancient societies and explores different civilizations, from the funerary rites of ancient Egypt to Hebrew and Muslim religious traditions. This broad perspective helps explain the enduring nature of practices involving influence, protection, and exorcism throughout the history of magical traditions.
Understanding the Mechanisms of Bewitchment
Anne Osmont presents the main concepts used by occultists to explain how bewitchment works. In particular, she develops the concepts of the double, influence at a distance, and backlash, before examining different forms of actions considered harmful. Readers will discover how occultists of her time understood the transmission of magical influence, its consequences for the targeted person, and the signs by which its effects could be recognized.
Prayers, Protection, Uncrossing, and Exorcism
A significant portion of the work is devoted to traditional methods of defense, protection, uncrossing, and exorcism. Anne Osmont brings together various procedures and numerous prayers intended to break hostile influences and restore protection. Rediscovered and brought to light by Vincent Lauvergne, Bewitchments and Exorcisms Throughout the Ages is thus a major treatise for readers wishing to explore the history of counter-magic, exorcism practices, and defense systems developed in Western occultism.
Anne Osmont, born on August 2, 1872, in Toulouse, was a French poet, novelist, translator, and occultist. Daughter of Athanase Osmont, a merchant, and Antoinette Espérou, she studied at a Catholic boarding school in Toulouse. After her studies, she began her journalistic career by collaborating with southern newspapers such as L'Art Méridional and the Messager de Toulouse, where her first texts were published.
In 1898, Anne Osmont moved to Paris and joined the newspaper La Fronde. She mingled with literary figures of the time, notably Ernest Raynaud and Paul Verlaine. In 1907, her poetry collection Nocturnes was awarded by the female jury of La Vie Heureuse. She also published short stories in periodicals such as Le Journal des débats politiques et littéraires.
Alongside her literary career, Anne Osmont developed an interest in occultism. She practiced astral double projection and studied with personalities such as Max Théon and Hector Durville.
In the 1930s, she gave lectures and wrote about symbolism, metaphysics, and magic. Anne Osmont died on May 13, 1953, in Paris, following poisoning caused by a gas leak.

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.
