The Book of the Treasure of Alexander, attributed to Alexander the Great and the philosopher Aristotle, is a medieval Hermetic text of alchemy, astrology and astrological magic. This is the first complete English translation and contains a fascinating look at Arabic alchemy with instructions for preparing the Great Elixir or Philosopher's Stone. The Book of the Treasure of Alexander contains 30 new astrological talismans, most provided with special images from the original Arabic manuscript and new planetary invocations. Translated from the Portuguese critical edition by Nicholaj de Mattos Frisvold and edited by the leading contemporary astrological magician, Christopher Warnock, the Book of the Treasure of Alexander is an invaluable addition to the library of scholars and practitioners of authentic Hermetic astrology, alchemy and magic.
