Foras

The Thirty-first Spirit is Foras. He is a Mighty President, and appeareth in the Form of a Strong Man in Human Shape. He can give the understanding to Men how they may know the Virtues of all Herbs and Precious Stones. He teacheth the Arts of Logic and Ethics in all their parts. If desired he maketh men invisible, and to live long, and to be eloquent. He can discover Treasures and recover things Lost. He ruleth over 29 Legions of Spirits, and his Seal is this, which wear thou, etc.

Foras Brings Ominous Warning

Like the other Goetian Spirits formerly appearing in human form, when Foras was evoked in Aaron Donahue's remote viewing room, he came as a skeleton. It is a message of death.

But Foras had even more to say. His bearded remains stood waist deep in a pool of blood, Donahue said.

"Foras is said to assist life unto any man and yet I understand the image that it projects," Donahue writes on his web page. He says the spirit is telling us that the future "is hopeless for all mankind."

Donahue said that after evoking this demon, Foras came to him again in a dream. He said this time he appeared as a "hairless human like figure standing within a deep red pool of blood."

He writes that he has no recollection of speaking with the spirit, although he received a clear message which was "a description of the extinct human race." He said he was not only told that we would become extinct, but when and how it would happen.

"I believe that this aforementioned being is Foras (and) that (he) did foretell of the annihilation of the human soul apart from Eden," Donahue wrote.

The ancients always described Foras as "a strong man" who understood herbs and knew the secrets of long life. Some said he could even make men live forever.

How ironic that it would be this spirit who brings the death sentence to all of mankind.
