Persian Occult Mysticism
Demons, genies (jinn), and disincarnate spirits permeate ancient occult traditions in the Middle East and neighboring countries. An early 20th-century Persian manuscript on magic and astrology provides a glimpse into this mystical world with dozens of watercolor illustrations of metaphysical and otherworldly creatures, and a book of spells listing incantation and talismans from pre-Islamic Iran, Arabian Peninsula, and Egypt. More from Robert Sepehr, author and anthropologist.
