Title Anagram The fairy on page 2 sits next to a list of numbers. If you use these numbers to pull out letters from the book's full title you reveal a hidden message: SECRETS OF MICHAEL STADTHER. Poem on the Letter Blocks The letter blocks as images within the text of the book include lines of a poem. The poem describes the general rules for the treasure hunt. Source: Hunt Forum. The two letters on each block also anagram to "Secrets of the Alchemist Dar" or "Secrets of Michael Stadther". Each letter block contains: Page Block Letters Phrase Image of a character Pg 19 E T Nothing said on where to go Grasshopper Pg 24 R C Less on1 telling what to do Bee Pg 38 E H Nothing hidden on private lands Butterfly Pg 46 T S Nothing again in anyone's hands Firefly Pg 50 M E Someone to see a place to be? Hummingbird Pg 56 F R Another possibility Ladybug Pg 71 L T Always be safe and take no chances Spider Pg 91 C D Obey the laws make no disturbances Snail Pg 98 E A Nothing seen is what you'll find Ant Pg 100 S I A secret treasure in your mind Dragonfly Pg 104 H S Look inside yourself to see Beetle Pg 107 A O A code for infinity 2 Caterpillar 1A few believe this should be read as "lesson" instead of "less on". 2Some people add in a "be" here. Morse Code Clues Hidden Morse code within the images appears to include more hints for the treasure hunt.

There were similar 'exceptions' throughout ATT. Quinary in the Book of Spells The page numbers for the Book of Spells are in a pictograph version of Quinary or base 5 numbering. 0 = A white sun - ○ 1 = A black sun - ● 2 = A left facing black moon - 3 = A right facing black moon - 4 = A left facing white moon - Red Hare Rings The quinary code also appears in groups of symbols on the background of most pages of the Book of Spells alongside direction triangles and rings and red hares. For example, the following symbols are on page three: ●●○ ●○○ ○● triangle and ●● ● ●○ triangle red-hare-ring. These can be decoded to the following quinary numbers: 110 100 201 22 triangle and 311 44 123 130 triangle red-hare-ring. Translating from quinary to decimal numbers yields: 30 25 51 12 triangle and 81 24 38 40 triangle red-hare-ring. The decimal numbers are decimal degree coordinates which are Geographic coordinate system coordinates for: 30 degrees 25 minutes 51.12 seconds north latitude, and 81 degrees 24 minutes 38.40 seconds west longitude. Which is a coordinate for Little Talbot State Park in Florida. Note that the triangles indicate direction (North/South or East/West) of the lat/long pair. Note that coordinates in the United States are west longitude, which is indicated as a negative number (i.e. 81 west = -81). The remaining coordinates locate similar points of interest. Much early comment was made on whether these 20 locations should be ignored or not because they are tagged with red-hare-rings (or red herrings). Some trovers have researched the locations, in some cases throwing up possible thematic links. Since then the author has repeatedly stated that the hunt can be solved without leaving your home. Constellations in BOS The Book of Spells includes black spots on each page which appear to be constellations. Page 1 Puppis constellation Page 3 Hercules constellation Page 4 Centaurus constellation Page 5 Pegasus constellation Page 6 Phoenix constellation Page 7 Ursa Major constellation (specifically the Big Dipper asterism) Page 8 Ara constellation Page 9 Aquila constellation Page 10 Leo constellation Page 11 Hydrus constellation Page 12 Orion constellation Page 13 Libra constellation Page 14 Canis Major constellation Page 15 Canis Major (caput half) Page 21 Taurus constellation1 Page 22 Scorpius constellation Reflection Clue Taurus constellation In Touch Clue Draco constellation 1Some trovers favour Lyra constellation Swirl Picture On the inside cover of the "Book of Spells" is a swirly picture. This picture looks to have been made by taking the illustration of the doth on the inside cover of the main book and graphically manipulating it using many swirling processes. In Touch Clue The Feb 5th edition of In Touch Magazine contained a new clue. On a spell type page a ring of black marks surround ambigrams of the words SUN and MOON. Hidden within the marks is the message: YOU DONT HAVE TO LEAVE HOME
