"Enochian is a name often applied to an occult or angelic language recorded in the private journals of John Dee and his colleague Edward Kelley in late 16th century England. Dee straddled the worlds of science and magic just as they were becoming distinguishable, and Kelley was a self-declared spirit medium who worked with Dee in his magical investigations. The men claimed that the language was revealed to them by angels."
(source: Wikipedia)
"Enochian magic is a system of ceremonial magic based on the evocation and commanding of various spirits. It is based on the 16th-century writings of Dr. John Dee and Edward Kelley, who claimed that their information, including the revealed Enochian language, was delivered to them directly by various angels. Dee's journals contained the Enochian script, and the tables of correspondences that accompany it. Dee and Kelley believed their visions gave them access to secrets contained within the apocryphal Book of Enoch."

I want to know your opinion on them, I've seen many people here go so far as to say they are frauds, but also i have seen people highly praise their works, also I have seen people like Donald Michael Kraig recommend their books.
So I want to know what do you think are they frauds? are they legit?
My uncle recently passed , and can’t remember the meaning of his tattoo. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
Considering there's so many on ETSY, I'm guessing the answer is yes but I wanted to confirm.
I'm reading Enochian Vision Magick, and learning about the The Ring, The Holy Table, The Lamen and The Sigillum.
I decided to go on ETSY to see how much these items would cost, I was expecting each item to go for 500 or more. To my surprise, all these items are less than 50 bucks each! Not only that but they look very well designed and pretty.
In the chapter about The Sigillum, Lon Milo suggests to make this yourself because he says the process of making it yourself, you absorb it within yourself.............but wouldn't gazing at someone else's made Sigillum have that same effect the same way as when one gazes at a sigil?
I obv want to do the magick correctly but just want to confirm that I can grab all these items off Etsy instead of hand crafting.
Simple question: is the enochian system adequate for thaumathurgical goals? By that, I mean the use of sorcery to obtain worldly gains such as wealth and love. Or is the enochian system entirely theurgical, in the sense of approaching men to the divine?
What’s been some of your experiences slash craziest encounters with the system? Do have a daily practice?
Hi yall, I’m trying to find the translation of a word for a friend. the word is “service” in Enochian. they can’t remember the exact word, but said “Direct symbol based translation [using the above photo] is possible but the pronunciation is lost to time if memory serves”. my friend had also always said it’s “not exactly pronounceable”, which im guessing implies it’s complex phonetically. If anyone could help, that’d be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance!

Just wondering. I haven't practiced it(yet) and when I read about other peoples experience it seems like its a mix between Enochian is spiritual recreation/fun but you dont actually gain anything from it, to others saying Enochian helped change their life in a big way.
So why do any of you who practice Enochian do it? What does one gain?
Howdy, spare my perfil photo, its from an anime, but i wanna know how can i talk to an angel in a dream, like, how do i start? how do i can get to know that its really a good entity and not a bad one, i also want to know if i write on paper some enochian texts to be more clear about my health or my beloved ones.
TLDR: Anyone with access to *HIGH QUALITY* scans of Sloane MS 3188/3189?
Detailed explanation:
While exploring "An Invitation to Good Angels" (Leaf 1A 21-23), I noted inconsistencies in the transliterated text published by several different (commonly respected) sources - mostly due to different interpretations of Dee's handwriting / the ambiguity of certain letters when written in cursive (e.g. 'o' and 'a' or 'e'; 'm' and 'n'; 'v' and 'r')
Being interested in accuracy for any Enochian invocation, I figured I could just use the publicly available scans of Sloane MS 3188 to reconcile - but discovered that, except for a few cases, the quality of those scans isn't really sufficient (when zoomed in to the level needed for analysis, the text becomes too pixelated)
By way of example, I've seen both "PADONOMAGEBS" and "PADOHOMAGEBS" as the first word of Leaf 1A (21)*
In this particular instance, when looking at the scan of Dee's cursive handwriting, it's clear that the character is definitely a lowercase 'h' that was misinterpreted by some as an 'n' because the line that would distinguish a lowercase 'h' from a lowercase 'n' was slightly lighter, even though it's clearly there.
However, other circumstances are less clear.
Can anyone help?
* Example--
...guess I belong here, now. Then again, with my username, it's a wonder I didn't find your folks earlier! I'm Rowan and I want to learn me some Enochian and preferably not sound like a goat when speaking it.
So i noticed in the song No Good Deed in the show Wicked it starts with a chant:
"Eleka nahmen nahmen Ah tum ah tum eleka nahmen Eleka nahmen nahmen Ah tum ah tum eleka nahmen"
I know its Enochian because "Eleka" is the Enochian word for "Daughter of Light" in the Enochian Dictionary.
This is but one example of Enochian used in popular culture, another example are the Enochian Protection Runes in Supernatural engraved in someones skeleton.
Does anyone else know of other examples of the Angelical Language used in popular culture?
I also want to know what the Ah tum and Nahmen means in the chant in No Good Deed as i am still learning how to speak enochian and wish to use it in many of my spell work.
Can someone explain to me whats the difference? If there is any? And which would be better to get.
I recently read from a well known Enochian author that angels seem to view all humans as fallen and needing of repentance, but those especially that have worked with demons in the Goetia as being tainted.
Apparently they desired Kelley and Dee to repent, and become enlightened with their roles in the Great Work.
Does anyone have any understanding on this, based on either texts or from personal interactions with said angels?
I'm going to be visiting London in the near future. I am aware that there are some instruments of Dee's in the British Museum and plan to visit there. Does anyone else know of other areas of interest around London related to Dee and Kelley's and their work that would be worth visiting?

im not a magik believer myself, but im sort of a linguist,
Enochian is interesting. i studied some of the history, and the propouse.
I understand that is meant to be used to contact angels, so vocabulary should be limited, and im aware of the existence of the enochian dictionary. but im interested in the grammar aspects:
for example is S-V-O? there are declinations? auxiliar verbs? or is it maybe more "tarzanic" in nature, (like "me want food")
(im not intersted in the "roots" since, either is a con-lang or a divine language, it should't have any)
is any of the above explained in the ecochian dictionary or should i search for another source? (i want to know before i bought it)
i assume most of you already know the language.
and i hope im not offending anyone, im grateful for any help.
Does this mean we messed up in the scrying process?
I was just curious I've had successful scrying sessions with a tablet device before, as well as with a tradition obsidian black mirror. I don't cover either. Is it because things can enter? Or because they can exit? I don't understand. If I'm utilizing the black mirror to speak to Angels, are other things really gonna try to come through? Is prayer supplicated enough as to not have to cover all the mirrors?
Hello, I'm gnostic and am curious about the basics of angel magic, will someone enlighten me plz
Hi, I'm interested on learning enochian language. Any links that you can recommend me?
I would assume this post wouldn't be so appreciated here because most people don't like to simplify enochian magick.
I'm aware of couple of practical enochian books like success magick by GOM and universal magick by corwin hagrove and enochian vision magick by long milo duQuette. But these are literally the only practical enochian books I know of. I don't want to add a 100 book to my wishlist so I'm looking for the best practical enochian books.
Thank you in advance!
Also what are the recommended pre requisites before jumping into such system? Crowley mentioned that this knowledge goes beyond the tree of life and into the aeons so is this safe to assume to one should understand the tree in and out before even thinking about jumping in?
First question: do I need a circle for evocation?
Second question: can I use the one Crowley put on Liber ABA?
