Summoning spirits (evocation) does not have the best reputation … as long as they are not called ‘apparitions of Mary’, ‘cult of the dead’, ‘invocations of gods’, ‘spiritualism’ or ‘family constellations’ …
What is so scary about contact with spirits? In dream journeys one also meets all kinds of spirits – and poltergeists always come quite unasked. The problem is mainly the fear of death, of the spirits of the dead.
This has not always been the case – close contact with the dead was first demonized by the Christian missionaries: They put the one God Father in place of the deceased physical father of every human being – and formed the devil from the archetype of the ancestor spirit.
There is hardly an early culture in which spirits were not conjured up. Examples of this can be found in the Neolithic Age, in Egypt, Sumer, among the Hittites, the Romans, in Africa, in the Old and New Testaments, among the Germanic peoples, the Celts, in Islam, and so on.
There is a great variety in the methods of evocation, in the reasons for them, in their procedure and in their place in the culture – but the basic principle is very simple.

关于作者
I was born in 1956 and have been intensively involved in magic, religion, meditation, astrology, psychology and related subjects for 45 years now. Meanwhile I have written about 190 books and about 50 articles for various magazines.Since 2007, I have expanded my decades-long avocation and am now a full-time life coach. This includes the actual consultations, but also the interpretation of horoscopes, healings, rituals, sweat lodges, firewalkings, help with haunted houses and other ‘magical problems’, training in meditation and Feng Shui and much more. On my website www.Harry Eilenstein.de you can find some of my articles and also a detailed curriculum vitae.
