I prefer to use Enochian the way it was presented to Dr. Dee. So for me this book is invaluable. This book covers the Magick system of Enochian very well. It's specific, detailed and gives user guidance.

It's also one of the clearest works on the 19 day operation - which is like a self-initiation into the Enochian Energies.

This book used to cost well over a hundred dollars. Thank God it was reprinted, for the rest of us. Geoffrey James created one of the most all encompassing and detailed works on the subject. Later authors have pulled considerably from this work.

If you have an interest in Enochian or want to read a viable approach based on the original system of Dr. Dee - this book is a must have. If you have any questions on Enochian work - feel free to contact me via my Amazon profile.

Yes!! this is the nearest book to learn the enochian magic based on Dee notes, minimal errors and excelent explication without Golden Dawn learnings. Pure Enochian Magic

The Enochian Evocation of Dr. John Dee by Geoffrey James is an excellent resource for this system that was given to Dr. John Dee by angels. If this is something you would like to learn more about, this is a must-read for your collection.

The Enochian Evocation of Dr. John Dee is a very detailed book about the material. It is written so it is clear to understand, but it is a highly complex system so reading the material more than once is a must.

Overall, this book is a fantastic intro guide for the beginner seeking information about the Enochian magick system and also those who already practice it. It provides clear information for working with it and also which invitations you should use for certain things you want/require of the angels.

I recommend this book for everyone who is interested in this type of system. If it isn't something that interests you, or you think it goes against your religion, obviously you wouldn't like it. For those that do want to research it though, this is a great book to get you started.



* Thank you to the publisher of The Enochian Evocation of Dr. John Dee, Weiser Books, for providing me with a copy of this book for review. All opinions expressed are my own.

If you're not already, you should be aware that this book is a reprint of The Enochian Magick of Dr. John Dee: The Most Powerful System of Magick in its Original, Unexpurgated Form. The cover and title are completely different (probably due to the change in publisher), but the content within the book is exactly the same. Don't drive yourself crazy seeking a rare, super expensive copy of an out-of-print version when a very affordable copy is within easy reach.

This is an excellent book (it's actually part of the Modern Mystery School's recommended reading list). If you're looking for a history of John Dee, this book is a little sparse on that topic. The book isn't very self-explanatory at all, in fact. What you're looking at is Dee's grimoire: magick he received from angels, these beings' account of the world and Dee's personal notes about his experiences. There's good wisdom here. However, if you want to learn Enochian magick thoroughly, and in a safe manner, I recommend you study in a school or with a reputable teacher with a long, sound lineage in this field. Frankly, while books are wonderful resources, there is only so much you can glean from them compared to the experiential learning one receives from structured training.

This book is still a great secondary reference (much of it being translated into English from Dee's original Latin). I recommend this over most other books on the topic of Enochian magick, as much of their content has unfortunately been modified by modern writers.

I am pretty well read on the mystical studies, but this book is very hard to understand. I think it might be good for someone very very advanced.
