The Enochian Language - History and Analysis of the Magic Angelic Alphabet revealed to Dr John Dee

The Enochian Language as revealed to Dr. John Dee and Edward Kelley is perhaps one of the most enduringly fascinating events in the history of western esotericism. In this episode I explore the origins of the Angelic or Enochian Alphabet along with historical context in which it emerged including a paleographic analysis of the nature and possible origins of the script!

It is not like Polish has no vowels, Polish has exactly 1 vowel for every syllabe :D Example: 1) name "Grzegorz" you read as "gre-gor" with very, very hard "R" sounding almost like English "ZH". 2) surname "Przewalski" is "pre-val-ski" (with hard R). 3) word "szczebel" (a ladderstep) would be written in English orthography as "shchebel", just read it to disprove this impression of "no vowels". It was easy, wasn't it? :D Our brothers Srbs have no vowels, literally, and Slovaks like to skip 90% of vowels too, just check the name "Strbskie Plso"

It almost feels like the old magic languages relate more to computer programming languages than normal speech. If you want to interact with a certain type of chip/micro controller you use the language and syntax that it requires. It feels similar with all the esoteric stuff as well. Why would magic use gain a structure similar to programming? Can the "celestial CPU" be contacted, or even crazier, be given "programming inputs" via words/sound? Spoken into being is very close to programmed into being. Words are used in both cases in the same way. Just a weird thought.

I dreamt of many Enochian Angelic symbols not to be confused with Wiccan or Theban letters. I found out what they were by waking up and drawing them and finding out what they were. I didn’t see them before in this lifetime until I dreamt of them. I took three from my memory in my dream to take with me to my conscious life and drew them and then researched similar looking symbols and letters. The Angelic Zibu Runes which look somewhat cursive are the symbols I saw and drew.

I've always been bouncing back and forth between psychological models of magic or more of an animist model but I will say that my experiences w Dee and Kelley's system were what first pushed me into animist territory. other systems seem to take like 45 minutes or so to get into a proper trance/visual state, enochian almost feels like turning on a tv if you have a set up with even a little effort put into it. its super weird and goes against so many of the more psychologized theories of magic, that its all purely about altered states of consciousness. but that said, i mean, what do we really know concretely about consciousness itself
