Description
Dr John Dee was a 16th-century scientific genius and occultist whose work had a profound impact on modern science and beyond. This comprehensive study explores his life, achievements, and influence on the development of Enochian magick.
Dee's remarkable career spanned from his time as a star student at Cambridge to his appointment as advisor to Queen Elizabeth I. However, it was during the second half of his life that he devoted ten years to communing with angels and archangels, resulting in the creation of Enochian, a language believed to be spoken by mankind before the fall from Eden.
This book delves into Dee's fragmentary Spirit Diaries, examining the angels' plan for a New World Order and his influence on prominent figures such as Sir Francis Bacon and 20th-century occultists. A fascinating look at the intersection of science, magic, and politics, this study sheds new light on one of history's most intriguing figures.
