Howdy,

I have never worked with enochian. And today I understood that I have been missing out seriously, as I watched a documentary on TV where they mentioned that Dee and Kelley were instructed by the angels about how to start the apocalypse!

This is something I have been longing for!

My understanding is that the key is inside the enochian system.

Ok, now a tad bit more serious:

I am a reasonably experienced occultist. I wish to get started with enochian. I do not suppose this should present any problems since I have a couple of books in my reference library containing calls etc. However what I am most interested in is EXACTLY THE APOCALYPSE. However I know little about the relationship between enochian and the apocalypse. Where can I find information about this specific subject?


Thank you
Nox

Enochian Magic for Beginners by Donald Tyson. Drawing information from rare material, Tyson makes Enochian magic available to any practitioner without oversimplifying the information. Besides traditional material, Tyson includes several innovations that will help advance the system for decades to come. Also looking at the Enochian material in a new way is The Angel’s Message to Humanity by the Schuelers. A must have is:The Complete Enochian Dictionary: A Dictionary of the Angelic Language as Revealed to Dr. John Dee and Edward Kelley, by Donald Laycock.

Dee's Book of Enoch, and the "Apocalypse of St. John" would be a good place to start for Enochian Magick and the Apocalypse information. There are two major threads of thought in Christian millennialism. One thread, called postmillennialism, is largely Utopian in nature. It sees the millennium as the beginning of a period of gradual perfection of conditions on Earth; the basic principle is that the world must be brought to perfection and the City of God built on Earth before the Christ will return, and it is only after the Christ returns that the world will end. Two decades after Dee, this form of millennialism was the driving force behind the religious groups spearheading the English colonization of America. Dee's own thought contains many post-mil ideals; in seeking out the Enochian magick, one of his goals was to gain a means of bringing earthly governments and societies into line with the design of God, thereby bringing the return of Christ closer.

The other thread, called premillennialism, is the more catastrophic variety. In this version, the typical scenario is that the Christ returns, and then the current "evil" societies of mankind will be destroyed in worldwide disasters, while the elect are preserved from harm. After the world is destroyed, the Christ joins with the faithful in a City built by God to rule over the Earth for a thousand years.

While there is a strong millennialist flavor to the angels' pronouncements, they are almost uniformly of the postmillennialist variety. The angels divided the world into four ages. The first of these began with the creation and ended with the Flood; the second ended with the first appearance of the Christ. The revelation of Liber Loagaeth ended the third age and ushered in the final age, in which the world would be brought to perfection prior to the return of the Christ.

The Calls and Tablets were in turn intended to be one means by which this perfection could be brought about. One particular passage establishes this clearly.

On February 11, 1584, Dee & company had arrived at the Polish manor of Albert Laskie, and had time to settle for a few days and do some magickal work. This day was the first operation of a new series of works after the hiatus. And during the work, the spirit Nalvage appeared for the first time to introduce himself and state his purpose.

The session begins with a colloquy in Latin between an evil spirit that settles by Kelly's left shoulder, and a good spirit that settles by his right shoulder. After some discussion the dexter spirit banishes the sinister. He spends a couple of paragraphs praising the Doctrine to be revealed, then says:

Nalvage:

"These [are] latter days, and the end of harvest must have also Labourers: For no Age passeth away, but through the hands of God, who makest the end of his doings known to the World: To the end, [that] the World may consent unto him in Glory. So that this Doctrine, is the mysteries of the word of God, sealed from the beginning, now delivered unto man, for that Reformation which must be in one Unity established unto the end. [emphasized in original] The very part of that Circle, which comprehendeth the Mysteries of the Highest, in his Prophets, Apostles, and Ministers yet to come, which are alive and shall bear witness of eternal comfort.

"The fruit of our doctrine is, that God should be praised. For of ourselves we seek no glory: But we serve you to your comfort, teaching you the will of God, in the self same Christ, that was crucified; sold and died in the Patriarchs, and published to the World by his Disciples, and is now taught to you, in the remission of sins... greatest in the world, for the end of all things. The very key and entrance into the secret mysteries of God, (in respect to his determination on earth) bringing with it reward in the end of eternal glory, which is the greatest Treasure."


Nalvage:

"These things are your parts, and portions sealed, as well by your own knowledge, as the fruit of your intercession, The Knowledge of Gods Creatures.

"Unto me are delivered five parts [i.e., months] of time: Wherein I will open, teach, and uncover the secrets of that speech, that holy mysterie. To the intent the CABALA of NATURE, in voyce, substance of bodie, and measure in all parts may be known. For there is nothing secret, but it shall be revealed, and the Son of GOD shall be known in POWER, and establish a Kingdom with righteousness in the earth, and then cometh the end.

"For the earth must come under subjection, and must be made pure. That death may be swallowed in his own Kingdom, and the enemy of righteousness find no habitation. The word of God endureth forever. His promises are just. His spirit is truth. His judgements inscrutable. Himself universal. He it is of whom you labour. The promises of God in this earthly noble man shall be fulfilled. Salomon used the places of honor, and was exalted."

While not so clear as later speech from this source, nonetheless some things are apparent. Nalvage is a postmillennialist. That is, he holds that the world must be brought to a state of perfection and holiness before the Christ can return; the City of God must be established by man, and then the end comes. The Calls and Tablets (which he begins to deliver two months later) are the tool by which this perfection of the Earth and mankind can be brought about.

Thank you Redhand for a very informative post.


Anyway I have started slowly by ordering the Tyson book.

The Apocalypse of John - I take it you are referring to the last (IMG:style_emoticons/default/book.gif) of the (IMG:style_emoticons/default/book.gif) .

You mention Dee's book of enoch ... what is this, is this a special translation made by Dee of the book of enoch, or did Dee write a book with that title?

The quotes from Nalvage - are they from the Schuelers' book, or from where?

I am sorry to read that according to Nalvage the work with the tablets and calls is a work of the postmillenianism variety. I would much prefer the premillenianism version of the apocalypse. Maybe that makes me a bad person (IMG:style_emoticons/default/oops.gif)

I read a review of Schuelers' book where someone blamed it for causing their schizophrenia. Sad. While it is one of our occupational hazards I am always sorry to hear when it gets one of us. Now, anyway, according to this review the work with the enochian system consisted of opening the portals for evil beings to enter our world ... now, my question becomes I suppose: this sounds more like premillenianism to me ... is Nalvage only presenting one point of view? Or is there a some kind of explanation for this paradox (if it is such)?

Thank you
Noxlux

edit: ordered a copy of the Schuelers' book as well. sounded interesting.
