Preface

A person in love is emotional, pliable, and easily misled.

• (The origin of the word “seduction” is the Latin for “to lead astray.”)
• A person in lust is harder to control and, once satisfied, may easily leave you. Seducers take their time, create enchantment and the bonds of love, so that when sex ensues it only further enslaves the victim.
• Power is irresistible, and nothing will bring you more power in the modern world than the ability to seduce.

• What is good?— All that heightens the feeling of power, the will to power, power itself in man. • What is bad?—All that proceeds from weakness. • What is happiness?— The feeling that power increases— that a resistance is overcome. — FRIEDRICH NIETZSCHE

• A person who enters your life offering adventure and romance cannot be resisted.

The Art of Seduction is designed to arm you with weapons of persuasion and charm.

• Every seduction has two elements that you must analyze and understand:
  1. Yourself and what is seductive about you;
  2. Your target and the actions that will penetrate their defenses and create surrender.

Whatever is done from love always occurs beyond good and evil. —FRIEDRICH NIETZSCHE,

• Once you start reading the following summary, let yourself be lured by the ideas, your mind open and your thoughts fluid...
  • Slowly you will find yourself absorbing the poison through the skin and you will begin to see everything as a seduction, including the way you think and how you look at the world.

Seducers

• Seducers are never self-absorbed. Their gaze is directed outward, not inward.
• Seducers see themselves as providers of pleasure.
  • Self-absorption is a sign of insecurity; it is anti-seductive.
• Everyone has insecurities, seducers manage to ignore them, finding therapy for moments of self-doubt by being absorbed in the world.

The Siren

In a world where women are often too timid to project such an image, learn to take control of the male libido by embodying his fantasy.

Keys to Character

• Sirens have an abundance of sexual energy and know how to use it.
• Siren is the most potent of all. She operates on a man’s most basic emotions, and if she plays her role properly, she can transform a normally strong and responsible male into a childish slave.
• The siren must have two critical abilities once she has made herself stand out from others:
  1. the ability to get the male to pursue her so feverishly that he loses control
  2. a touch of the dangerous.
• The more he chases, the more he will feel that he is acting on his own initiative.

• A touch of fear is also critical: it creates respect, keeping a man at a proper distance, so that he doesn’t get close enough to see through you.

• The Voice

  • The Siren’s voice has an immediate animal presence with incredible suggestive power.
  • If the voice must lull, the body and its adornment must dazzle.
    • It is with her clothes, the siren creates the goddess effect.
  • The Key: Everything must dazzle, but must be harmonious at the same time.
• Movement and Demeanor
  • The Siren moves gracefully and unhurriedly.
  • Your gestures must have a certain ambiguity, suggesting something both innocent and erotic, a perversely satisfying mix.

Selective Disclosure

• The revealing of only a part of the body—but a part that will excite and stir the imagination.

Symbol: Water

• The song of the siren is liquid and enticing, the Siren herself is fluid and ungraspable.
• Like the sea, the Siren lures you with the promise of infinite adventure and pleasure.
• Forgetting past and future, men follow her far out to sea, where they drown.

The Rake

The Rake is a great female fantasy figure -- When he desires a woman, he will go to the ends of the earth for her.

• He may be disloyal, dishonest, and amoral, but that only adds to his appeal.
• The Rake is delightfully unrestrained, a slave to his love of women.

Words are a woman's weakness, and the Rake is a master of seductive language.

Keys to Character

• What the Rake offers is what society normally does not allow women: an affair of pure pleasure, an exciting brush with danger.
• To play the Rake, the most obvious requirement is the ability to let yourself go, to draw a woman into the kind of purely sensual moment in which past and future lose meaning.
• Like men, women are deeply attracted to the forbidden, the dangerous, even the slightly evil.

The male is traditionally vulnerable to the visual. For women the weakness is language and words.

• The Rake’s use of language is designed not to communicate or convey information but to persuade, flatter, stir emotional turmoil.

Symbol: Fire

• The Rake burns with a desire that enflames the woman he is seducing.
  • This fire is extreme, uncontrollable and dangerous.
• The Rake may end in hell, but the flames surrounding him often make him seem that much more desirable to women.

The Ideal Lover

Ideal Lovers thrive on people’s broken dreams, which become lifelong fantasies.

Keys to Character

• Attuned to what is missing inside you, to the fantasy that will stir you, the Ideal Lovers reflect your ideal—and you do the rest, projecting on to them your deepest desires and yearnings.

  By seeming to be what they lack, you will fit their ideal.

• The Ideal lover is rare in the modern world, for the role takes effort.

  • You will have to focus intensely on the other person, fathom what she is missing, what he is disappointed by.
• Ignore your targets words and conscious behaviour; Focus on the tone of their voice, a blush here, a look there—those signs that betray what their words won’t say.

one’s attachment to a man depends largely on the elegance of his leave-taking.

• Nothing is more seductive than patient attentiveness.

• The art of playing to a woman’s ideal has almost disappeared—which only makes it that much more alluring.

  The key is ambiguity—to combine the appearance of sensitivity to the pleasures of the flesh with an air of innocence, spirituality, a poetic sensibility.

• Remember: most people believe themselves to be inwardly greater than they outwardly appear to the world.

  • They are full of unrealized ideals: they could be artists, thinkers, leaders, spiritual figures, but the world has crushed them, denied them the chance to let their abilities flourish.
• Appeal only to people’s physical side, as many amateur seducers do, and they will resent you for playing upon their basest instincts.
• Appeal to their better selves, to a higher standard of beauty, and they will hardly notice that they have been seduced.

Symbol: The Portrait Painter

• Under his eye, all of your physical imperfection disappear.
• He brings out noble qualities in you, frames you in a myth, makes you godlike, immortalises you.
• For his ability to create such fantasies, he is rewarded with great power.

The Dandy

Dandies excite us because they cannot be categorized, and hint at a freedom we want for ourselves.
