Browsing the 72 Spirits: Arcana Goetia App Guide (2026)
Table of Contents
The Ars Goetia names 72 spirits, each with its own seal, rank, office, and legion count. A printed grimoire forces you to page through all of them. The Arcana Goetia app turns that static list into a browsable, searchable reference you can actually use mid-ritual.
Why Browse the 72
Most practitioners only ever work a handful of spirits. Browsing the full 72 matters because the right spirit for a given problem is often not the famous one. A purpose-oriented browse beats memorizing by heart.
- Discover lesser-known spirits suited to your exact situation
- Compare seals and ranks before committing to a working
- Confirm a spirit's office and legion count before you call it
- Build a personal shortlist of spirits you trust
The Spirit Grid
The app opens on a grid of all 72 spirits, sortable by number, rank, or name. Favorites pin your shortlist to the top so your core working set is never more than a tap away.
The Spirit Card
Each spirit card carries the essential working data: the seal, rank, office, legion count, and any notes on how the spirit is classically called. Everything you need is on one screen, no flipping pages.
Purpose Search
Purpose search is the feature that changes everything. Instead of knowing a name and looking it up, you start from the outcome you want. Need love, money, or knowledge? The app surfaces the spirits whose offices match.
The Seal Library
Seals are the signature of each spirit. The app renders all 72 seals sharply and at scale, so you can trace or print the correct one instead of copying a blurry scan. Accuracy matters: a drifted seal is a different working.
Ranks & Offices
Ranks describe how a spirit operates: kings work formally, dukes work directly, presidents lean scholarly, and so on. Pairing the right rank with the right task makes results far more consistent.
Digital Practice
A phone screen is a legitimate place to keep seals and working data. The app works fully offline, stores nothing on a server, and requires no account. That privacy is part of why it is a one-time purchase with no subscription.
