Enochian Magic for Beginners: The Original System of Angel Magic

by Donald Tyson

Some magicians say it is the most powerful magical system ever. The Golden Dawn used it. Aleister Crowley used it. A growing number of magicians use it. And now, you can use it too thanks to Donald Tyson and his book, "Enochian Magic for Beginners.
"Revealed to John Dee and Edward Kelley over 400 years ago, much of this system has been ignored or misunderstood, even by famous magicians. Some of the source material has been fragmented, obscure, or unavailable. Thankfully, Mr. Tyson has worked long and hard to rediscover what was missing and piece together what had been changed.
Make no mistake—this is not a superficial treatment of Enochian magic. Yes, it is written for beginners, but it is also a vital and important resource for those who are currently practicing the Enochian system.
Most people today follow the Golden Dawn's method of Enochian magic. But did you know that they left out a major portion of the system? It's true! They did not include the "Heptarchia Mystica," a manuscript discovered amongst John Dee's belongings. In "Enochian Magic for Beginners, " you will learn the secrets of the "Heptarchia Mystica," including such things as the Angelic seven rulers, the preparations for practice of the system, and how to perform the ritual of the system.
But the Golden Dawn Enochian system is also quite powerful, and you will learn all of the inner secrets of this system so you can practice it on your own.
Also included are two new designs for Enochian typefaces, Donald Tyson's reconstruction of the Enochian Book of Spirits, and much more.
If you have found that your magic has not been as successful as you would like, this is the book you need to start a new page in your magical career. If you want to learn about the Enochian system, this book is the best introduction to it to date. And if you are already practicing Enochian magic, you will find this book to be a valuable resource.

About the author

Donald Tyson is a Canadian from Halifax, Nova Scotia. Early in life he was drawn to science by an intense fascination with astronomy, building a telescope by hand when he was eight. He began university seeking a science degree, but became disillusioned with the aridity and futility of a mechanistic view of the universe and shifted his major to English. After graduating with honors he has pursued a writing career.

Now he devotes his life to the attainment of a complete gnosis of the art of magic in theory and practice. His purpose is to formulate an accessible system of personal training composed of East and West, past and present, that will help the individual discover the reason for one's existence and a way to fulfill it.

When Tyson sticks to research, he's great. The problem is that he veers off into his own speculations without clearly demarcating the point of departure into la-la-land, making this work definitely NOT "for beginners."

Given up on this book, just not gelling with me. But for people interested in this style of magic it certainly has a lot of useful information and history which is always a good starting point for new subjects you are setting out to explore.

I like learning about various types of magickal systems, Enochian magick is one of them. I wouldn't recommend this book for the novice, I don't think it is beginner material at all. This book is part of my angelic/enochian section of my personal library but I rarely use it.

I am interested in learning about all kinds of magical systems and traditions. Enochian intriges me. Some of it is, I'll admit, above my head. While I do not believe that I will ever utilize this form of magick, I will keep this book in my library.

I think the whole "Apocalypse" theory is bunk, and detracts from the book.

broke it down a lot, but still quite a bit of personal opinion...but that's ok

[Kelly]

Man this book is just going over my head so far, I hope I connect with it more
the deeper I get into the novel.

A good primer on Enochian workings. One of the better books on the subject that will get you from interested to practicing quickly.
