Historical Demonology
Demonology studied as intellectual history and depth psychology. Learn how the Pseudomonarchia Daemonum and the Ars Goetia came to be, browse the 72 spirits as a historical table, and read them through Jung as images of the shadow. There is no summoning and no harm here, ever.
A respectful safety note
This hall treats demonology as history and psychology only. It contains no summoning, evocation or harmful instructions. These beliefs remain sacred or serious to many people, so approach them with respect. If the material stirs fear or distress, stop, ground yourself and turn to something ordinary and light. If distress persists, please speak with someone you trust or a mental-health professional (in South Africa, SADAG: 0800 456 789).

The 72 spirits: a historical catalogue
Names, ranks and attributes as recorded in the seventeenth-century Ars Goetia (largely after Weyer's Pseudomonarchia Daemonum, 1577). This is a document of intellectual and religious history. No seals, conjurations or procedures are given, and attributes that are hostile or coercive are marked as recorded only.
