Solomonic Binding of Spirits

The Solomonic Binding is drawn directly from the Greater Key of Solomon, the foundational grimoire of Western ceremonial magic. While traditionally used to bind spirits during evocation, the principles of this binding can be applied to any force that needs to be contained — including the harmful actions of a living person. The binding uses the power of the divine names to create an unbreakable constraint that limits the target's ability to act outside of defined boundaries.

The central tool of the binding is the Triangle of Art — a triangle inscribed within a circle, placed outside the protective circle of the practitioner. Within this triangle, the target (whether spirit or person) is confined for the duration of the binding. The triangle is inscribed with the names of God appropriate to the binding: YHVH, ADNI, AHIH, and AGLA are inscribed at the three points and at the center.

Once the triangle is prepared and the target sympathetically linked to it, the practitioner reads the binding conjuration from the Key of Solomon, commanding the target by the most holy and terrible names of God. The binding takes immediate effect and remains in place until the practitioner dismisses it or until the terms of the binding are fulfilled. For binding a living person's harmful actions, the working is most effective when renewed at each waning moon.
