Introduction<br />

<strong>The</strong>atre <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Abyss</strong><br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>The</strong>atre <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Abyss</strong> is a Grimoire, though not in <strong>the</strong> usual sense<br />

<strong>of</strong> a recipe book <strong>of</strong> magick. Ra<strong>the</strong>r, it is an energy field that is<br />

harmonically vibrating <strong>the</strong> stream <strong>of</strong> force that emerges into our<br />

planetary system via <strong>the</strong> Yuggothian Gate which is represented<br />

astronomically by Pluto. <strong>The</strong> <strong>The</strong>atre <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> title refers to <strong>the</strong> use <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

word meaning “A place that is <strong>the</strong> setting for dramatic events“. 298<br />

Note: I have decided to include this material, though it is available<br />

elsewhere, as it is a cornerstone <strong>of</strong> my own work with <strong>the</strong> formula <strong>of</strong><br />

“<strong>The</strong> Witchcraft” as delimited by Parsons.<br />

<strong>The</strong> work itself is divided into four major parts:<br />

1. <strong>The</strong> Book <strong>of</strong> Hekt – Liber 81<br />

2. <strong>The</strong> Voice <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Darkness<br />

3. Ritual Outlines - <strong>The</strong>atre <strong>of</strong> Terrestrial Astronomy<br />

4. <strong>The</strong> Temple Book<br />
