OROBAS: THE TWENTY COURTS OF THE BLACK HORSE is an experimental grimoire exploring the darker dimensions of Goetic sorcery through an original system of twenty infernal courts, each representing a distinct territory of revelation and a different stage in the transformation of human perception. Drawing upon the ancient descriptions of Orobas as the fifty-fifth spirit of the Ars Goetia, Fr Asar Un Nefer reconstructs the mysteries of the Black Prince as the foundation of an immense occult dominion, where the horse that assumes human form becomes the manifestation of an intelligence whose understanding of existence reaches far beyond the limits of ordinary reason.
The twenty legions form the bedrock of an expansive initiatory geography within this enigmatic realm, where strange oracles and forgotten sovereigns dwell, the secrets of whose chambers reveal the building blocks of reality and the beginnings of consciousness. Each court introduces the practitioner to unfamiliar symbolic landscapes where the boundaries of personal identity gradually dissolve, allowing the human mind to explore increasingly alien forms of awareness while confronting the forces that govern its deepest convictions.
Moving from historical Goetic traditions into radical ritual experimentation, the book develops a complete system of practical sorcery involving the evocation of Orobas and the exploration of the Black Dominion through specially constructed seals and visionary exercises. The black mirror becomes an instrument of revelation, the human voice acquires unfamiliar forms of expression, and the twenty courts unfold as an interconnected initiatory system through which the practitioner investigates the relationship between infernal intelligence and the transformation of the self.
At the heart of this work stands a disturbing proposition: truth possesses the power to transform the individual who encounters it, gradually stripping away inherited identities and exposing unfamiliar possibilities of existence. Through the symbolism of the Black Horse, the mysteries of infernal sovereignty acquire an entirely new dimension, where revelation becomes an encounter with the unknown and the magician begins to recognize the fragile boundaries separating human consciousness from the greater mysteries of the cosmos.
OROBAS brings together Goetic demonology and experimental occult philosophy within an extensive practical grimoire, inviting the reader to enter a kingdom of twenty courts where the pursuit of forbidden knowledge becomes an initiatory journey toward the emergence of another form of selfhood.
Beyond the Twenty Courts, the Black Horse continues its journey through the darkness, carrying the seeker toward a truth that transforms everything it touches.
