Nocturnicon: Calling Dark Forces and Powers ReviewI have read and followed Konstantinos work for years. Some people attribute to him the same kind of clout as Silver Ravenwolf, for good or ill, and has a similar reputation. They both are very successful authors, and so come under the worst scrutiny.
I have not, in any area of the book, heard him call this black magick. It is not black magick. I have labeled his brand of magick as dark magick. Dark Magick in the sense that it is not inherently evil, but something that alot of the contemporary wiccans would shun. So if you are looking for black magick, you will disappointed. Which is why I think the other reviewers wrote as they did.
His magick is usable, and is indeed different than modern magick. I do not consider this a weakness. There are Elements in these rites if you know what you are looking at. However, death, darkness and such are chaotic. Hence the chaotic way of forming the circle. Those who understand the balance of nature also understand that light=order and dark=chaos. These rites were refreshing, and interesting to read. Some people claim he is making his own kind of magick...but is that not we all do when we write our own spells and such? Some claim he is pandering to goth mentality. Well, I suppose you could say that any other wiccan or ceremonialist is pandering to the fluffy bunny mentality also. It is a matter of perspective. :)
Konstantinos is not the only mage to use drugs or substances for magick. Aliester Crowley was reknown for it. He uses substances that although are not illegal, they skirt the edge of it. Really I see no difference in using Absinthe which has a myriad of herbs as well as Chartreuse. Herbs have chemical components or drugs if you will, and shaman of old had used these forumlas into antiquity. The law makes them illegal and wrong, but they can be used for altering perception and that is his whole point in this. Tantrics and those who use sex magick (which is not unheard of in ceremonial magick) use another way of altering the perception and senses of the magician. Part of magick is physical whether people recognize that or not.
What my beef with the text is near the end. His whole subject utitlizing the Necronomicon by Simon just seems like he is trying to cash in on the darkness, fear and horror of Lovecraft. Yes the Necronomicon can be used, but relying on other works and such for comparison seems like money grabbing. For this reason alone I give it 3 stars. I am sure you can use his rituals at the end to better use the Necronomicon, but then that requires that you buy it also. It just gives a lack of credibility when you add something like that to your work.
In summary, these rites can be used, and I think with some good results, but it also requires you to be adult about the subject. It is more like something someone over 21 should buy, in my opinion, because of the information that is in it. I think that was his intended audience anyway. All in all I think it is a good book, but I would say you should read his Nocturnal Magick and Gothic Grimoire first.Nocturnicon: Calling Dark Forces and Powers Overview
