This is it, which philosophie dreameth of (2)


Forgot to mention this on the blog at the time, but have uploaded some more materials relating to "Enochian Magic" to scribd.

The Holy Table of John Dee gives a full-colour overview of the Tabula Sancta or Table of Practice based on the final corrected design in the Dee diaries and the description as to colours and dimensions left by Elias Ashmole who had a chance to examine the original table (believed to have been subsequently destroyed in a fire); also includes actual-size images (broken up into parts to fit on A4 pages) of the border, central block and Ensigns of Creation that can be printed then cut out and either stuck together or used as template for painting your own.

The Angelicall Alphabet of Dr. Dee shows the letters of the "Enochian" alphabet based on Dee's copy of the corrected final forms, along with relevant excerpts from the Spirit Diaries concerning the "primitiue diuine or Angelicall speche" and the names of the letters (several of which Regardie and those copying him managed to get wrong).

Bibliographia Enochia is simply a bibliography of primary and secondary sources on the subject, under sporadic review / update. It makes no pretence to completeness, and is limited to works on the subject in English.

The photograph shows a half-size rendition of the Table of Practice plus other accessories made by yours truly (I can occasionally be induced to actually make physically manifested things), the table being backed onto a folding game-board for portability.
