The Practice of Enochian Magick - Paperback

by Aleister Crowley (Author), Lon Milo DuQuette (Introduction by)

Enochian magick is a powerful system of ceremonial magic based on the 16th-century writings of John Dee and Edward Kelly, who claimed that their information was presented to them directly from angels. It is named after the biblical prophet Enoch and is perhaps the most powerful and elegant of all magical systems. Dee and Kelley's work has formed the basis for countless magical systems, such as the Golden Dawn, and has inspired magicians from all the generations that followed, including the famed Aleister Crowley.

This book presents readers with the Enochian selections from the Equinox, a magical journal published by Aleister Crowley. It features Crowley's distillation of the work of Dee and Kelley along with an introduction by Lon Milo DuQuette, master occultist.
