[Upgrade to paid]( The Enochian Enigma: More than Just Words The Enochian language is steeped in legends and tales, so intricate that even scholars passionately debate it and students often resort to online help to understand its depths. So, what's the real story behind Enochian, the so-called 'language of the angels'? John Dee: The Renaissance Magician Born between 1527 and 1609, Dr. John Dee was a mathematician, occultist, astrologer, and astronomer who spent most of his years in Mort Lake, West London. A St. John’s College, Cambridge alum, he entered the influential societal circles and became Queen Elizabeth I's scientific confidant. While credited with introducing the term 'British Empire', Dee initially showed no inclination towards supernatural pursuits. However, as time went on, he gravitated towards magic and the arcane, desiring to unearth ancient spiritual wisdom, such as that found in the legendary Book of Enoch. Portrait of John Dee painted during the 17th century by an unknown artist. It is taken from the National Maritime Museum at Greenwich. 1609 ( [Wikimedia Commons ]( Speaking with the Heavens: The Enochian Way The name Enochian draws inspiration from the biblical character, Enoch, famed for his mystical insights and heavenly ascent. Scriptures depict Enoch as someone who had a special relationship with the divine. Between 1581 and 1585, Dee undertook numerous magical rituals. By 1581, he noted in his diary that divine "Good Angels" intended to converse with humanity. In 1582, Edward Kelley, another occultist, joined him in this endeavor. Together, they documented hundreds of interactions with spirits, noting the revelation of an angelic language, Enochian. This new script was divulged during "scrying sessions," a prophetic method involving reflective mediums. [Share]( John Dee performing an experiment before Queen Elizabeth I.

Dee would initiate the sessions with prolonged prayers, invoking the angels. Following this, they would scrutinize the scrying stone, noting all their observations. These angels purportedly claimed that their magical knowledge could confer extraordinary abilities upon its users, restructure European governance, and even signal the Apocalypse's onset. Dee meticulously cataloged these experiences, convinced of their future significance. Interestingly, he didn’t label the language as “Enochian”, but used terms like "Angelical," "Celestial Speech," and especially "Adamical".

One can be found in Dee’s writings, while the other is based on Kelley's illustrations. The language's structure, though distinct, has English parallels. Used predominantly in Enochian Magic, it found its way to Poland in 1584, where Kelley documented a series of incantations.

Some argue it's the world's primordial language, with others highlighting its striking similarity to English.

Organizations like the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn and prominent figures such as Aleister Crowley, Israel Regardie, and Anton LaVey, the Church of Satan's founder, have embraced and promoted Enochian. Numerous Satanist groups have integrated Enochian Keys into their rituals, with some fully adopting its lexicon. Enochian in Pop Culture and Science The allure of Enochian extends beyond the confines of occult circles. Jack Parson, a renowned U.S. rocket scientist and a member of the O.T.O., delved into Enochian studies.
