Levi traveled to England in 1854, where he met the Rosicrucian author Baron Edward Bulwer-Lytton. Lytton was known for his writings on occult, mesmerism, astrology, clairvoyance and magic. Levi formed a partnership with him and this launched his career as an occult writer. He published the book, ''Dogme et Rituel de la Haute Magie'' in 1855 [Eliphas Levi's Transcendental Magic Its Doctrine and Ritual], which was translated and annotated by Arthur Edward Waite.

In his book ''The Mysteries Of Magic'' Levi wrote this about his god, "What is more absurd and more impious than to attribute the name of Lucifer to the devil, that is, to personified evil. The intellectual Lucifer is the spirit of intelligence and love; it is the paraclete, it is the Holy Spirit, while the physical lucifer is the great agent of universal magnetism."<ref>''The Mysteries of Magic'', Eliphas Levi translated and annotated by Arthur E.
