Origin:
The word "conjuration" comes from the Latin word "conjuratio," which originally meant "a conspiracy" or "an incantation." In ancient times, people believed that certain words and gestures could be used to summon supernatural beings, such as demons or spirits. These incantations were often performed by priests or magicians and were thought to have the power to control or influence the beings summoned.
Over time, the meaning of "conjuration" evolved to include any act of summoning or commanding a spiritual entity. It can also refer to a conspiracy or plot, as the word "conspiracy" originally comes from the Latin word "conspirare," which means "to breathe together" or "to agree secretly." This connection is likely due to the fact that conspiracies often involve secret agreements or incantations.
