Description:

On January 3rd, 2001, documentary writer/producer Wayne Darwen brought a professional T.V. news crew into the inner sanctum of The Order of the Temple of Astarte to record a remarkable phenomenon: the summoning of the ancient spirit Vassago. Early in February an edited version of Vassago's mysterious Prophecy was broadcast by the Los Angeles affiliate of a National T.V. Network, confirming that the spirit had predicted a major news event: only 13 days after the ritual had been audio-visually recorded, President Laurent Kabila of the Congo was assassinated.

In this video version we show you the entire operation in sequence, exactly as it happened with no rehearsals and no retakes. Wayne Darwen also interviews the Magister Thabion (Poke Runyon) and the mystic seer Frater Solomon. Their unrehearsed answers to his probing questions leave no doubt as to the philosophical depth and spiritual power of Solomon's ancient Magick even in this modern age. This is an entirely new and original production. In "The Magick of Solomon" video (also available from amazon) we dramatically reenacted magical rituals for instructive purposes, whereas "Dark Mirror of Magick" is the record of an actual magical operation of historical significance. We believe that this remarkable documentary will be studied and commented on for years to come. As an additional bonus, this one hour VHS video includes a ten page booklet, "The Vassago Millennium Prophecy", in which the seer and the magician give their impressions of the meaning behind the spirit's cryptic Oracle. This 2nd Edition of DARK MIRROR OF MAGICK (DVD version) has ten more minutes of new footage added with commentary on the Vassago Prophecy, as subsequently revealed in the following two years, plus a new prophecy from Vassago himself.

"This is the most remarkable record of a supernatural event I have ever witnessed." - Wayne Darwen, Director.

Comment: Be careful, you might be summoning something or someone just by listening to this. I felt strange...

The Book of Solomon's Magick

Carroll "Poke" Runyon describes
himself as "A Gentleman of The Old
School" which he defines as, "One who
recites classical poetry to heartless
beauties while wrestling alligators." He
has lived out his Neo-Romantic philosophy
as a Captain in the Green Berets,
a student of Ninjutsu, a blue-water
sailor, a scuba-diver, an internationally
published novelist and author of adventure
stories in the legendary ARGOSY
magazine. For more than thirty years he
has been a leading figure in the revival
of ceremonial magick as Western civilization's
spiritual counterpart to
Eastern mysticism and native American
shamanism.

His background in occult study and practice is extensive: in 1970 he
became the founder-magister of the Ordo Templi Astartes, which is now
America's oldest continually operating ritual magick lodge. In 1980 Runyon
received his Master's Degree in cultural anthropology from California State
University at Northridge, specializing in magick. After graduate school he
took all the degrees of Freemasonry in both the Scottish and York Rites.
He then undertook an intense series of Tibetan tantric initiations and
training sessions under the direction of H.E. Luding Khen Rinpoche of the
Sakya Order, mastering the Vajra Yogini (Goddess of the Sorcerers) system.
Runyon later received the Kalachakra initiation from H.H. The Dalai Lama.
His articles on Magick and the Western Tradition have appeared in
Gnostica magazine and his Church's journal, The Seventh Ray. Runyon's
most noted contribution to the post W.W. IT occult revival has been his rediscovery
and subsequent development of the facial reflection/distortion dark
mirror skrying method for magical evocation. In 1974 he appeared as a guest
on the Tom Snyder t.v. show, narrating film footage of O.T.A. magical operations.
Through his Church (The Church of the Hermetic Sciences, Inc.),
Runyon has written, produced and narrated a video entitled: The Magick of
Solomon that dramatically demonstrates the unique and powerful spiritual
development system described in The Book of Solomon's Magick. Most
recently he has produced a video documentary of an actual Goetic magical
operation, Dark Mirror of Magick, with remarkable prophetic results in our troubled times.
