Arotor

Lux Ferre April 12, 2019

Arotor is a demon mentioned in the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage translated by the Occultist Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers.

Arotor is said to serve the demon-king Magoth.

In his translation of the Abramelin material, Mathers suggests that this demon's name means “ploughman” or “husbandman” (as in animal husbandry).

In other versions of the work, the name is spelled Arator. This name may also have started out as a magickal palindrome.
