Once used in ritual from the NECRONOMICON, they can be used for no other purpose save a similar ritual from che ECRONOMICON. Do not use these candles for ocher rituals (thac is, from other spellbooks) or for any mun— dane purpose. You must cake chese rituals quite seri— sly, and treat the cools you use in a ritual wich che same respect a carpenter has for his saw and hammer, or a plumber for his wrench or a priest for his Bible. In a way, by using these rituals, you have become a kind of priest or priestess yourself, for you have joined a select order of initiates that has been practicing these and similar mystical rituals since che beginning of recorded history.

The Tower of Babel, for instance, is very probably the Ziggurat (or temple) of Babylon, which i‘ : 18i The First Name is MARDUK. The Lord of Lords, Master of Magicians. His should not be called except when no other will do, an it is che most cerrible responsibility to do so. The word of his calling is DUGGA. This, the first name of MARDUK, should only be used when life is threatened. It is not wise to use it on any other occasion, or flip- pantly in any way. To do so would be to ren- der the other seals and names worthless, for MARDUK would abandon you to your fate.The Second Name is MARURKA. ‘very difficule to summon. The Priest should not. ‘non him unless he is clean of hear and spirit, fo __ The warning should, of course, be taken seri- _ ously.

The Fi¢th Name is LUGGALDIMMERANKIA. word used at his a is BANUTUKKU. This seal has proven useful when confusion has taken hold of the mind and no way can be seen to end the mess a life is in.

The Sixth Name is NARILUGGAL- DIMMERANKIA. Commander of the Wind Demons. He will puc co flight | any maskin who haune chee, and is the foe of che rabisu. None may pass inco che World Above or che World Below withour his knowledge. His word is BANRABISHU. A good Spirit for warding off feelings of aggra- vation and irritation, as well as the gnawing feelings of dread that sometimes come in the wee hours of the morning, when you feel lost and alone. Merely the pronunciation of the Word BANRABISHU at these times is suffi- cient to dispel most of these negative emo- tions. To be said with force and strength in the four directions. ueThe Seventh Name is. ASARULUDU. Wielder of the Flaming Sword, oversees the Ri Watchers at che bidding of the Elder Gods. He ensui the most perfece safety, especially in dangerous tndercaken at che behest of the Astral Gods, i Word is BANMASKIM. Like the Angel in Genesis, this Spirit pro- tects a place, a home or temple, from nega- tive psychic and magickal attacks. Like the Sixth Spirit, merely the pronunciation of his Word BANMASKIM is sufficient to dispel hostile influences when shouted to the four quarters. Maskim and Rabisu are the names of ancient Sumerian demons.8. The Eighth Name is NAMTILLARU.

The Ninth Name is NAMRU. : excellent counsel and teaches che science of meta Word is BAKAKLAMU. One reader writes to us and says “Although I _ am excellent in most of my subjects at (a col- lege on the East Coast), I ama general failure _ at science. It was then that I got a copy of your NECRONOMICON and my eyes fell to the seal of NAMRU. I prayed the night before an important Chemistry midterm exam to NAMRU and carried his seal into the class- room. I passed a test | thought I would never even get a 35 in with an astonishing 85. Sud- denly, it just seemed that I understood the subject for the first time in my life.”10. The Tenth Name is ASARU.

For those who dabble in the necromantic arts, or who are involved with spiritualism, sante- tia, voodoo, macumba, or any of the other arts which deal of communication with invis- ible spirits and gods, this Spirit is a tester and measurer of their truth. Can protect one from being deceived by negative or unruly spirits, or by those who seek to convince you that they are in communication with those forces when, in truth, they are not. When engraved in metal and worn on the person in the pres- ence of deception, the metal has a tendency to get warm to the touch. 4112: The Twelsth Name is ASARUALIMNUNNA. This is the power that presidech over ai kinds and is excellently knowledgeable in mi acters, being of the advance army of MARDUK that Battle. He can provide an army wich its entire weaponry in three days. His Word is BANATATU.

Silences che weeping and gives joy co the sad and ill at heart. A most beneficent Name, and Pro: tector of the Household, his word is OIRRIGUGIM. Sadness can sometimes be a heavy burden and a negative emotion that eats away at our body and soul as surely as any disease..Quite often, only a change of perspective is needed to quell the soul’s trembling.

Those who call on this spirit find an unspeakable peace descends on their souls and lightens their spirits so that they can return to the world of the living with a sense of relief and renewed faith in themselves and the world.

This power bescowech Riches of all kinds and can where creasure is hidden. Knower of che Secrecs of the Earth. His Word is GIGGIMAGANPA. Although quite often scholars attribute metaphorical meanings to the powers said to be found in spiritual spellbooks, ZIKU has been known to work both ways: literal and metaphorical. A reader who has used ZIKU | before writes to tell us that after invoking him She discovered a ten-dollar bill in the street. ‘That was only the beginning, however. She ” discovered that her attic contained a valuable _ stamp collection that she sold to an interested buyer the following week. A “hidden trea- sure?”16.- The Sixteenth Name is. AGAKU. This Power can give life co whar is already dead, _for a shore time only. He is the Lord of the AMULE and che TALISMAN. His word is MASHGARZANNA. Some explanation is necessary to understand the full implications of AGAKU. The bestow- ing of life into dead objects is a specialty of those magicians who deal in TALISMANIC magick. In this ART, a drawing or engraving is made of some occult symbol that represents a goal to be achieved (to make an extreme case, drawing a dollar sign on a piece of paper to rep- resent money or wealth). This “talisman” must then be consecrated and give “life,” which is the life-force and True Will of the magician transmitted to the Talisman. AGAKU can assist the budding magician by expediting this transfer of life-force to the talisman.17 The Seventeenth Name is TURU. Lord of Baneful Magick, Vanguisher of the Ones by Magick, giver of the Spell co MARDUK KURIOS, a most fierce enemy. His Word MASHSHAMMASHTI. There are times when we feel that someone else may be practicing magick against us. The feeling is hard to describe to anyone else, but we know it when it happens. If you are certain that magick is being used against you, that a speH has been cast or a curse sent in your direction, then the name and seal of this spirit will repel the evildoer as surely as if Archangel Michael had been summoned to rout Lucifer, from Heaven. A most potent protection device.18. . The Eighteenth Name is SHAZU. the thoughts of chose at a distance, as Can assist the magician in developing powers _ of telepathy and ESP, as well as the special - abilities of divination (telling past and future, as well as present, events through the use of the Tarot cards, the I Ching, or any of the thousands of methods in use since time _ began).19. _ The Nineteenth Name is et to this Power, whose word is MASHINANNA. The function of this Spirit is obvious by the above description. Can heal a lover's quarrel, a marital spat, a lawsuit, or even greater prob- lems. These Fifty Names of MARDUK are from the original Battle that divided the uni- verse into Good and Evil, and hence the forces they represent are primal and hearken back to a time before recorded history, before the collective memory of humanity.20. . The Twentieth Name is SUHRIM. We will not comment on the above.21, ‘The Twenty-First Name t SUHGURIM. As SUMRIM before, che Foe who Canoe be Appeased desire ic. The Word is MASHSHADAR. Again, we refuse to comment, except to say that to use either SUHRIM or SUHGURIM, as with ZAHRIM and ZAHGURIM, is a dan- gerous act of perhaps questionable morality. Magick was worked hard in this tradition.22. 5 The Twenty-Second Name is ZAHRIM.

This is che Lord of all frrigacion and can bring Water tle geometry of the Earch and knowledge of all lands. where Water might be found in abundance. His Word is EYUNGINAKANPA. ‘ The use of EPADUN is obvious by the pre- ceding sentences. Water is fast becoming a scarce commodity in some areas of the earth, and dowsers are often called in to help locate sources of water under the ground. How much more powerful they could be with knowledge of the power of the NECRO- NOMICON and the Sumerian spirit called EPADUN.26. The Twenty-Sixth Name ENBILULUGUGAL. The Power chac presides over all growth, and all che grows. Gives knowledge of cultivacion, and can Scientist predict a world-wide famine in twenty years.27. The Twenty-Seventh Name is HEGAL. plough. His Word is BUROISHU. An accomplished mystic writes to us to say that another ability of this Spirit is in the realm of sexual reproduction in people as well, and asserts that HEGAL can reveal secrets concerning human sexuality and fertility, link- ing HEGAL with the Semitic Spirit HAGIEL, a Spirit of the planet Venus.The Twenty-Eighth Name i SIRSIR. The Destroyer of TIAMAT, hated of the Anc Ones, Mascer over the Serpenc, Foe of KUTULU, most powerful Lord. His Word is APRIKUBA BADAZUZIIKANPA.

The Twenty-Ninth Name is MALAH. Trod the back of che Worm and cut i¢ in twain. Lord | of Bravery and Courage, and gives these qualities to |] the Priest who desires it, or to others the Priest may | decide. The Word is BACHACHADUGG. One of the prime characteristics of survivors is an inner sense of courage in the face of near impossible odds. Quite often, all that stands between us and success is the courage to do the right thing. Self-confidence does not come with being born. It must be learned. MALAH can help. The use of this seal and name acts within days—some say within minutes—to instill an exhilarating feeling of superiority One feels equal to any task, no matter how hard or forbidding30.- The Thirtieth Name is GIL.
