This important work treats extensively of Sabbatic-alchemical gnosis as manifest through the medium of potion-making, expositing eight principal philtre taxa, their pharmacoepia, gnostic dominions, and formulation. Evocations to aspects of the Sabbatic Guardians Lilith and Tubal-Cain are also given to empower the revelation and reification of the Philtre Arcana. Ars Philtron’s second edition of 2008 is subtitled ‘Edition Codex Vasculum’, and is the definitive edition of this work. Expanded text and imagery not seen in the first edition is present, as is the 27-stanza Elixirs of the Faithful Gods, a poetic cipher of the fluidic media which permeate the Sabbatic Mysterium.
