Thaumaturgy is the capability of a magician to work miracles. A practitioner of thaumaturgy is a thaumaturge, thaumaturgist or miracle worker.
This is what this mod is all about - drawing magic from physical objects in the form of Essentia and reshaping it to perform miracles.
The first thing you will need to craft is a wand. The first one available to you is the Iron Capped Wooden Wand crafted as shown here (using a stick and iron nuggets):
You then place a bookshelf in the world and right click on it with the wand. This gives you the Thaumonomicon which explains almost everything else you will need to know about Thaumcraft.

Compatible / Add-on Mods
A friendly request to addon makers:
- Don't go too crazy when adding new aspects. If you do, drop me a PM. If it is something obvious or useful beyond your addon I might add it to vanilla TC. :)
- Try not to add more than one research tab
- Please try and keep your own researches on your own tab
- Please don't move my researches around. You can make copies if you wish to show dependendies on your tab, but the research should remain in its original location.
- Please don't alter any of my recipes. If you feel it is needed for the balance of your addon please drop me a PM. Partly to discuss if the change is required, but mostly since it might actually be a change that should be in vanilla TC.
Lastly, I've noticed some addons adding items from TC 3 or earlier. I don't have a problem with that, so go wild. However several of those items I have been planning to re-add myself. A lot of TC 2 stuff never made it into TC 3 simply due to time constraints. So don't come crying to me if and when I do that. :)
Note - I obviously won't just copy-paste someones elses code for those items or blocks - I will implement my own versions.
If you want access to beta version of my mod to make version update go a bit smoother, send me a PM with your dropbox user info and a link to your mod (so I can check if you are actually an addon dev :P )

Mod Packs
As a habit I ignore every PM in regards to mod-packs - both private and public. Everything you need to know about them is listed here.
You want Thaumcraft in your mod pack? All you need to meet are five simple conditions:
1. Your mod pack needs a link back to this forum post.
2. You cannot make any money off of the mod pack.
3. You cannot claim that you made any part of the mod, and you must give credit to the author of the mod (Azanor).
4. If I ever ask you to remove my mod from your pack, for whatever reason, you do so.
5. Handle any queries and bug reports internally first. This is one of the main reasons I had such a strict anti-modpack policy for such a long time - people using modpacks would come here posting errors that have nothing to do with my mod or that have been fixed ages ago, but still occurs in the modpack because it is using an older version.
If these five conditions are met, then you have my permission to use it in a mod pack.
Special thanks to...
Lorc, creator of the icons I use for enchanting and other things
bonemouse, creator of the Isabella Texture Pack for letting me use his chest textures and skin as well as ScottKillen for making the Thaumium armor graphics based on the Isabella pack.
chicken_bones for letting me base my lightning effect and deploader code from WRCBE
CovertJaguar for his custom biome spawning code.
Rorax for allowing me to use some of her models.
J. W. Bjerk (eleazzaar)for the use of his icons for certain research categories. Find this and other open art at: http://opengameart.org
BitterBusiness for the use of his Pech model.
Is there currently a list of all items that have essences? If not, could one be made?
Edit: found that the creator have basically given up
1.7.10 Thaumcraft was the definitive minecraft experience. I would recommend to anyone who has an appreciation for quality content to give it a try (with Thaumic tinkerer, and perhaps a couple others such as the LOTR mod, tinkers, metallurgy 4, and twilight forest). Many thanks to the Azanor for 6 years of fun, and best of luck to any and all trying to follow in Azanor's steps.
In reply to contramalum:
I cannot agree more, it seems that the true thaumcraft experience has been slowly ruined every single new update.
I can't craft the iron caps!
In reply to ragedefender:
Completely Ignore everything that's written on the mod description. Thaumcraft doesn't use wands anymore.
Follow the Thaumcraft 6 guide.
This may be my favorite mod ever alongside Galacticraft and Twilight Forest, it's a huge inspiration too; if i'm gonna wait 1 year, until one piece ends or 'til the end of the world for another update i would. There's just so much stuff to play around with that you can't do everything at once
people, the mod is still in a coma, and its author is missing
pleaso update for 1.12.2 not a beta a official release please
i found a bug about thaumcraft
if you have SlashBlade mod and thaumcraft,you will have infusion problem,some thing can't create by infusion.
my SlashBlade mod version is SlashBlade-mc1.12-r32 thaumcraft version is Thaumcraft-1.12.2-6.1.BETA26
hey, I've been having a problem with this mods and its not just me, i wanted to know if u had a solution, in the auromancy route i can't get the knowledge of a fiery projectile even with a ghast, blaze, or fire charge from a dispencer. is there a way to pass this???
so 1.16.1 will never happen right?
In reply to alexandru20111:
Pretty much.
Haven't heard anything from the chap he grandfathered the mod to, it's possible though it may be that I am really ill informed but IMO it seems these recent updates will never get the old school awesome modded magic experience.
Does anyone know how to get Glyphed Stone? I want it for my research table, but clicking on it in JEI does nothing. I am playing FTB Stoneblock 2
yo ya quiero que lo actualizen adoro este mod :c
I remember reading that someone else is going to take over the development of this mod, with Azanor still being the creative director. Also, if it were completely dead he'd have deemed it as inactive by now
https://www.reddit.com/r/feedthebeast/comments/akcfgv/thaumcraft_6_successfully_makes_a_comeback/
Honestly, thaumcraft 6 is the best thaumcraft version yet. I love how the research is in 1st person, so you feel like you're actually part of the game. The first time i went through the mod I was astounded at how incredible it was. I then played thaumcraft 4 and 5, and they just werent as good. I can't wait for new caster's gauntlet tiers, although the one we have right now will probably be nerfed because it is already very powerful. Overall, this entire mod is incredible. Everyone needs to download it :)
I downloaded FTB Infinity Evolved and I am unable to make any iron nuggets as there are overlapping mods, is there a way around this? Yes the FTB uses old Thaumcraft so Wands are still in, thanks.
In reply to Dukethumper:
