Summary |
Originally published by the ecclesiastical Casaubon in an attempt to discredit Queen Elizabeth I’s court magician, Dr. John Dee, this monumental work on spirit communication has become one of the most valuable and interesting sourcebooks for modern students of the occult.ℓ Dee partnered with a rascally Irish medium cum alchemist, Edward Kelley, in a series of esoteric experiments designed to make contact with angels and other spirit beings. The result of their efforts was not only spirit guidance (including advice that they should ‘hold their wives in common’) but the communication of an entire system of magic, now known as Enochian and generally held in high regard by practitioners of the occult arts. |
