Enochian, Something to start off Options

Kinjo, I am so glad that there is now an Enochian forum! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/yahoo.gif):
If anyone has any questions about Enochian I would be more than happy to answer them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) And it would definatly get the topic up and running. I am particularly partial to the original Dee/Kelly Enochian, but also have worked with the GD version of it.
Also, others that work with Enochian, it would be awesome to compare notes.
This is a vast topic, so I am not sure where to start.
I highly recommend Geoffrey James book "The Enochian Evocation of Dr. John Dee". It is the best I have seen to date (I have been working on one but can't get off my behind to edit it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/13.gif)). Yeah I know the James book is out of print, but it is still very much worth the $50 if you are going to practice Enochian magic.

I would like to ask here what level of magic is required in order to start the Angelic Art ?

What caution does it dictate ?

I would suggest that anyone thinking of using the Enochian magick system read 'The Queens Conjurer' by Benjamin Wooley. This book give an account of the life of John Dee and the results of his contacting the 'enochian' entities. Once you have an understanding of the life of Dee it is then up to the individual to decide what level of risk they are willing to accept.

My personal opinion is that anyone who comes to magick with the intention of gaining personal power is set up a path that leads to self destruction, no matter which magick system they choose to study and use.

There is an interesting article in 'Book of Lies' entitles The Enochian Apocalypse written by Donald Tyson. The premise of this article is that the 'angelic' entities are anything but.
