The Book of Tahuti (Thoth) By Charles Pace - Hamar’at

Fragments thereof In the 1960’s, Charles Pace (magical name Hamar’at) was a Priest of Set and Anubis, a practitioner of ‘Black Magic’ and a ‘Black Adept’ of Hermetic Magick. Being a mortician by trade, Pace understood the deeper aspects of death and the sinister as initiatory experiences, balancing his own practice which later brought him to being a High Priest of a Gardernerian Wiccan Coven in south London. Charles Pace was a high Adept in Egyptian magic, developing as we can see in the fragments here a detailed and almost exhaustive system of Gods and Goddess attributed to the tarot itself. The Book of Tahuti as we can see here holds many beautiful paintings and examples of his art, even being dedicated to “Austin Ozman Spare”, an old friend. Pace knew many influential individuals, from Aleister Crowley (whom he apparently painted a large Baphomet for), Alexander Sanders, Gerald Gardner and even Jimmy Page, who he assisted in redecorating Crowley’s Boleskine House for, painting murals. Charles Pace authored two manuscripts which remain unpublished, The Book of Tahuti (which is shown in mere fragments here) and Necrominion, the Book of Shades. The Necrominion manuscript features the teachings of the Sethanic Cult of Masks, which the basic Luciferian theory of such fueled some of the initiatory works within The Order of Phosphorus. Hamar’at also writes of how the word ‘Wicca’ was a joke given to Gerald Gardner (which he obviously did not get) and is means enlightened to Christianity, even as a correspondent to Anton Szandor LaVey in the 1970’s, Pace echoed this again. In Necrominion, Pace report ably describes a High Sex Magick ritual called “Ankh Ka”, and makes an essay concerning the Five Fold Kiss.
