The realm of elementals is often called the enchanted realm, it is the realm that is being enchanted by the word as in the creative power of light. In a way, it is the natural world inside the creative power of light.
In the book we are mostly concerned with certain features of Edinnu, the Garden of God or the Paradise of Pleasure, that is, the heavenly region directly connected to the senses.
Entrance is subject to certain conditions. The Sumerians had at the door their scorpion versions of the sphinx, angels whose gaze was death, and the Jewish Paradise had the flaming sword that would smite the visitor. These are representations of the ecstatic states of trance where the elements stop being seen in their limited form and become infinite as four aspects of the Divine.
It is, thus, important for the magician to build his own magical garden in the image of this Edinnu before travelling through the cosmos, just like the ancient Persian hero Jamshid is warned by Ahura Mazda (Divine Providence) about a freezing winter approaching and so builds his magical garden on top of a mountain to save himself and the world. That is, the magician is to be firm in his own magical equilibrium, for even though we will not yet dare to eat from the Tree of Life, we will drink from the Edenic Rivers.
This book will explore the nature of the mind, soul, and body, the nature of the four philosophical elements, the four elemental kingdoms, the life of the four elemental kingdoms, and that which animates it. A magician following the Bardon tradition will feel at home reading it, for the book explores its aspects.
All in all, the work makes a complete Grimoire on its own and an area of elemental specialisation for all those following the hermetic tradition and the goetic path concerning the art of evocation, adding over 40 beings beyond those mentioned by Bardon at the Practice of Magical Evocation and many additional hermetic meditations derived from quabbalistic formulas.
In it the keys to magic, mental wandering, evocation, and the four elements are given according to different times and cultures in the light of universal knowledge, clairvoyance is deeply applied to the study of the different sprites, and the sprites of the elements named by Franz Bardon are interviewed in the triangle of art directly to the readers.

Wesley Stantos –
I’ve been reading this book, going back and forth for almost two months now. It was totally worth the money and the wait. Amazing reading.
Thank you so much
André Consciência – Occult Author, and Tanya Robinson for following with me on my pre-order.
Jay –
Just got a copy today….very impressed and happy with it.
As soon as I felt it in my hands I had a very good sensation overcome me….After all, it is a living Grimore.

I purchased the Guide to the Elementals hardcopy version and the experience of holding and reading the book is a pure delight, Falcon Books Publishing has done an amazing job! The colors and pictures are beautiful and enchanting, I’m really in love with the graphics as they transport me into the fantastic realm of the elementals and put me in the right mood.
As usual, the artistic and philosophical touch of the author “André” is captivating, he starts by laying the foundation of mental wandering and magical evocation by describing the logic behind it using science, philosophy, and a comparison across different philosophical/religious traditions. This approach is helpful for rational type of people who want to understand the how and why.
The book contains also a section dedicated to elemental/magical equilibrium and is therefore helpful for practitioners who are working on their soul mirror. After all, the soul mirror work is a lifelong journey, and any type of new information or perspective will come in handy.
I urge any magician and Bardonist alike, or just simply curious people who wish to discover the realm of the elementals, to buy this magnificent book, as André describes his exciting experiences in the later sections, I’m always eager to hear about people’s experiences with elementals to know how to interact with them in the appropriate manner.

André’s book on the elementals is just fascinating in its level of detail. ‘The Guide to the Elementals’ is definitely beyond my reach for now, but I do find it fascinating

As a reader, I would like to give my review tô this book here.
The author initially surrounds the reader in an aura of dream and mysticism, this construction built in me a window to see this wonderful and unfathomable reality like an enchanted forest hidden by an arid desert of ignorance in the most innocent sense.
Nothing I have read to date reflects the author’s effort to deliver intimate material that would impress the essence of the perspective on the reader. With an anthropological and concentric approach, the interviews reveal a lot about interactions with the spiritual world, and personally confirm a lot of my own experiences.
The level of maturity necessary as a requirement for evocation is considered for any serious practitioner to be relatively basic, the missing keys that made it impossible for practitioners like me to properly approach the second tarot card are here, clear as sunshine
The entities in this book played and continue to play an active role both in the creation of the book and in the reader’s experience in a way that only reading this already renowned classic of the new renaissance of magic can show.
I cannot more emphatically recommend the reading and acquisition of this Opus that reflects the desire of every seeker, to find life beyond life, a meaning for a world that offers a sterile simulacrum of true reality, masterfully illustrated in the Guide to the Elementals.

Amazing book, an absolute gem and a treasure trove of useful and fascinating information to the magical aspirant and also a beautiful work of art. The book itself is beautiful with many illustrations. Inspiring on every level.
