I learned something today … I don’t want too! 😉 I didn’t do any of this as a child to speak to God to get blessings from God so I’d call out no. I’m staying with my higher self cuz the higher self already knows the shapes . All I gotta do is let go . Ride the ride watch what happens good luck to me hehe
I was doing some research in the grand archives and discovered some notes from Dee that state he made all of this up just so when people studied this they would have no choice but to say " Dee's Nuts" therefore we have discovered the worlds first "Deez nuts" joke . I admire his commitment
@@iammichaeldavis Yep. The name sparrow, it sounds like Spare-O, Like two O's, like double O agents have. John Dee was the original 007, I think the name sparrow hints that he's a double O agent, exactly like John Dee.
I got onto your lectures because I was researching some of the elements of the demons in Warhammer lore. There are so many little references in the lore and the function of warp magic, as well as the names of characters that it is apparent that the writers are knowledgeable on the esoteric. I just wanted to say your lectures have become a staple for my painting listening as your explanations are easy to digest and your voice is perfect for the calming background noise needed for creative work.
I recently discovered your channel and I am addicted! Everything is captivating and the particular subject of Enochian magic is something I have been interested in for years.
I have to admit, I thoroughly appreciate & love your sense of humor!! At times, you're so subtle & casual in your delivery. I had to pause the video just to leave this comment after your, "flip it & reverse it - Elliot style" remark, after laughing myself to tears!! Thank you for your contribution to the world!! ❤
Your work is incredible to me,,i was shown some grids,,angelic language and more at fifteen ,i am sixty five and have spoke about the as I call white papers and books I read that where so hard to describe,,I couldn't be happier today seeing these things again,,ty.
Now that I think of the time I was doing this type of magic i realise now that it’s similar to the magic of the book of saint Cyprian. Except in saint Cyprian the hierarchies are not as mathematical. Again. Awesome episode. Thanks.
Cyprian (/ˈsɪpriən/; Latin: Thascius Caecilius Cyprianus; c. 210 - 14 September 258 AD[1]) was a bishop of Carthage and an early Christian writer of Berber descent, many of whose Latin works are extant. He is recognized as a saint in the Western and Eastern churches. Wikipedia?
Justin, I had the same thoughts regarding the preponderance of the letter B that you and Aaron Leitch shared. Reassuring to hear that I wasn't alone. This video was great. A very clear presentation of such a mysterious and expansive system. Good work!
Makes me happy to know so many people are still into and study the occult. Idk anyone in my real life who does. I love it. Hope to find some of ya someday 💪
That was so funny, or at least the way you told it was! I was cracking up long before you asked if we were having fun yet. It’s so fascinating how humans are drawn to creating these systems. Definitely ingenious.
As a practitioner, I think my favorite thing is finding channels like this one, full of academic and logical standpoints on one of the most mysterious forces in our world: Magic or Heka. We need more of this in my opinion, so we can finally craft magical practice into a more scientific and sound logic that everyone can follow if they wish :)
The guys that invented science were practitioners of hermeticism and alchemy. Science is the logical tool they created. Science is dualistic and about creating a perceived separation of the observer and the observed. Hermetic meditation is about realising the unification of your consciousness with the collective consciousness. Hermeticists believe all of existence literally is consciousness. Hermetic meditation feels expansive. Anyway the point is that to do science you have to do the opposite of what you would do to practise magic how they did. Magic is more a system of self improvement than it is Harry Potter stuff. There is a lot of nonsense too. People don't appreciate alchemy as being a system of mental transmutation because they associate it with "idiots" attempting to turn lead into gold. Also there's a wild theory that those beings John Dee used to commune with the angels were these same orbs that keep showing up that are connected to the UFO phenomenon.
@@Dowlphin Well science wouldn't exist without magic, and yes magic relies on what is outside of intellectual control. Some of the greatest discoveries in science were revealed to scientists. Like the idea just popped into their head. The DNA double helix was discovered on LSD (I need to fact check that actually). It seems like the initial breakthroughs are achieved in a paradoxical state of consciousness to the typical scientific state of consciousness (the intellectual logical state). All of this you can logic away by saying that their brains were simply working in a different way when they had these insights, and you would be correct, but that doesn't contradict what I'm saying.
@@theyreatinthecatsndogsand those who turn lead into gold appreciate alchemy because they were once idiots who now know milk and honey through mental transmutation.
I am so pleased that you have reached the same conclusion about Kelly as I. His account of the finding the red powder (possibly red sulphur) at Northwick Hill is a clear fabrication. He claimed to have been led to it by a Viking, but the area was outside of Danelaw. Whilst a few Vikings may have been found in the broader area, it just seems like a complete fantasy. I find it hard to believe that Sir John Dee was so taken in by him, not least as I have a lot of time for Sir John, but largely for his non-magical contribution to learning.
You'll find that red powder is a form of gold, in certain processes. It's not a catalyst, the heating involved simply drives the mercury off as gas. However, there is a possibility that they may have stripped the electron shells off - Dry Path implies temperatures twelve times higher than Wet Path (conservation of energy, backwards), and as that used wood, firing at 240-300 C, we're talking plasma temperatures. Then, the question's how to annihilate a proton from the nucleus, producing gold. (Hg's AW is 80, Au's 79).
"be sure to drink your Ovaltine" Uh, I think i made a mistake when following along the decoder ring of the sons of the sons of the daughters of the daughters of light.
I got that tractor joke 🚜 Dear Doctor, you are a gift. Significantly and synchronistically so given what I'm home brewing in regards to tarot magic and celestial. You're monas hieroglyphica videos were essential to understanding an alchemical process within the Watchtowers. Thank you Dr. Justin Sledge! Thank you Fr Aaron Leitch! And of course thank you Frater RC and his Experimentia Heptarchia course for being the gateway that lead me here! ❤️🔥
Ive been watching your content for quite some time and am always beyond fascinating with the way you convey information. You've been a key instructor with my pursuit of this category of knowledge.
I studied under a branch of Thelema and hold statis under the 3rd degree. I aslo consider myself more an occultist with a strong intrest in Egyption, Kabala, Anochian magic with an understanding in Demonic (know thy enemy) magic. Some if the strangest things I have ever seen in ritual have been in anochian ritual. The flame completely reversing and the tip of the flame pointing down burning downward instead of up. Your lessons and videos are spectacular. Spot on. I save them under a file titled,"Scholar videos" like a video book of shadows. Thank you for expanding my knowledge sir
thank you once again! enochian stuff is very complex and interesting, and it is always nice to find resources like this video that make it more accessible.
Video I've been waiting on for a while. I think Enochian magic is one of the most interesting subjects in Western occultism, but have never actually seen it explained how it works in practice. Thank you!
I'm really enjoying your videos! I went down a bit of a youtube rabbithole on this subject after listening to the BBC's audio drama, "The Lovecraft Investigations" (which I highly recommend to everyone), and it's fun to finally learn more about these fascinating mythologies and beliefs. Keep up the great work!
I love this channel. I love this channel. I love this channel. Thank you for your free education of esoteric history and exposing me to this complicated world in an understandable format.
Not to be too childish, but tbh these type of things bring back the thrill of stuff like secret decoder rings in a way - love your work and thanks once again for such a great overview!
The tables, prisms, crystal ball and rings in my AuDHD brain look like the equipment at an optometry appointment. *Angel: “What’s better? “One? Or two?” “Dee, are you gettin’ this?!” *Angel: “Place your hand over your right eye and read the list starting at B”. 😆
I'm fascinated with this subject for two reasons Firstly John Dee's communications seem so constant, recordable and positive in the beginning and yet seem very obviously twisted in their purpose towards the end? And also I found it surprisingly difficult to find any practical examples of people using such magick & yet there seems a lot of positive comments about it all...
Apparently there isn't much evidence for magic use, it's just the texts exists... No one knows how to a ruslly preform magic anymore tho 😄 not at like this level
Great addition to all of your videos. I typically listen as I work. Don’t watch so much. Happened to see the part where showing books on John Dee’s work. I had to laugh at the 😂😂
From my experience in Enochian Magick, the reconciliation between the mundane world and the Divine Realm is the overwhelming loneliness that the Magician must stretch themselves into being able to endure.
Amazing. This is surely associated Venus and the Virtues, the placements mentioned here and the specific or appointed Angels and the practices and knowledge I’ve personally attained, are as you mentioned, for the most part, as I AM still learning about what to do with the Magic Squares, and the Angels of the hours of the days. This is just awesome. Gratitude and Peace 🙏🏼💫
"Sweet wood" could be the wood of a fruiting tree. Apple wood, cherry wood, etc. all have a nice smell, color and would be quite rare. (cuz you gotta kill the tree, like a sacrifice)
Great work on the tables and such. It is like a more scientific approach to understanding magic so to speak. How important languages are to the practical side of it, like the use of air as a medium and linguistics of emotions to conjure concepts or thoughts. A combination that has not been studied very much.
A very timely video for me, since I just started reading A True and Faithful Relation, though it sounds like I should have started with The Heptarchia Mystica instead. Oh well, they'll both get read in the end! And my biggest regret after visiting the British Museum was missing the Dee paraphernalia. I didn't know they were there and must have walked right by them!
Thank you, Dr. Justin Sledge. . I love your podcasts.The are extremely informative. Have you ever seen Francisco Goya's 1798 paintings up close? Especially Spanish: (Vuelo de Brujas) "Witches in Flight" or "Witches in Air." "Witches of the Sabbath" (Spanish: El Aqauelarre) This last one was purchased in 1798 along with 5 other paintings related to witchcraft by the Duke and Duchess of Osuna. These reflect Goya's disdain for popular tendency towards superstition and the church, which led to medieval fears and depiction of such scenes as medieval fears exploited by the establishment order for political capital and gain. "Satin Eating His Children." It is suggested that Goya might have been a Mason. Whatever, I love all Goya's artwork. In fact, he is my favorite of all the great Masters. I do love e all the great Masters of art, also. They were a delicious pot of stews with hankey pankey here and there throughout the centuries. So be it with religions. Hear! Hear!
@@TheEsotericaChannel it's one of the reasons why I started watching your videos all those years ago now. Years already, btw! But seriously, it's the breath of fresh air needed in a scene that always took itself way too seriously.
I've always had a weird interest with the Enochian Language. When I first started having to teach myself to speak it I understood that as a dead language there is now no one way to speak it so everyone just says all the syllables differently. However most of this in this video I knew nothing about but with a brief overview of it. I even taught myself the runes it has. I enjoy it but this was Amazing!
You are possibly my favorite content creator, each and every video is so well thought out and well explained, thank you for what you do! Do you have any plans to make a video on djinn and the various beliefs and practices centered around them?
This is insightful. I learned a lot; Thank you. What I found most interesting was your information on the way the language is read and expressed. I value your wisdom and appreciate you taking the time to share with us. From Dahshon⚽️🎺
Friday night Esoterica. Excellent. One I get home from work, nice pot of tea and a good few tramadol for the old back and tune right in. This brings me an unspeakable happiness 👍🏼
It's hilarious how much more coherant your breakdown of the Enochian System in this video is than I've gotten from practitoners in the A.'.A.'. or OTO (which I was in for many years till deciding, after far too many red flags, Thelema wasn't something I wanted to be part of... at least any "orthodox" Thelema which deifies Aleister.) David Shoemaker and Lon Milo DuQuette were the only two I've spoken to who seemed to know much about it. Thanks for making this. I have very little interest in practicing Enochian or Goetia as I have my own methods which jive with me I've developed on my own but I find studying such things fascinating and important to history (esoteric and exoteric). Random questions: Is anyone aware of whether or not the SRIA practice Enochian? Is anyone in the comments a practitioner of Enochian and if you are what draws you you to it? What do you feel it gives you that other practices do not?
@@rishikesh1087 Yep we got on quite well. We've never met in person but have exchanged messages throughout the years. We don't see eye to eye on everything but that's a good thing to me so long as the difference in views is not about hatred or a despotic narcissistic worldview that wants to restrict the Freedoms and Will of others. He's a good guy :)
@@thishandleistacken hey thanks :) Some answers to your questions: No, the SRIA doesn't officially practice Enochian magic. It is possible that individual colleges might have classes on them, but there is no Enochian in their degree work and rituals. Regarding why doing Enochian and what it gives you, it's simply a more immediate connection with the Other than any other system I ever worked with. It should also be said that it's my experience that the real "goal" of the system was to usher in an apocalypse, i.e. moving from the previous Aeon to the current. It obviously succeeded in doing so.
"John D....eer" Fantastic. I love your work. I'm so glad there are people like you who are making accessible the academic study of esoteric knowledge. Keep doing amazing work! ✌️🫶🦐
This info used to be hard to find the books were always sold out. Or single copies It was hard to find truth then this guy . With his non bias info .we love you .thank you so much
Love the lecture! I've just recently started learning about Dee, Kelley and Enochian texts/magic. It's really very interesting but is as confusing at the same time.

I love these videos, really interesting to see you dig into topics , I like listening to this while I clean. Keep up the great work
When you talk about the angels having musical instruments and flags, I can't help thinking of some celestial marching band performing for deity.
One important point I took from this lecture. Flip it and reverse it. Another banger from the good Doctor. Ty
"Flip it and reverse it" the rest is commentary, go and do.
Great work on the tables and such. It is like a more scientific approach to understanding magic so to speak. How important languages are to the practical side of it, like the use of air as a medium and linguistics of emotions to conjure concepts or thoughts. A combination that has not been studied very much.
i am thankful for the content which you have a part in producing
"He got drunk and murdered a guy...Oh, loveable Edward Kelly. I love you, Edward."
I'm sorry this part got me hysterical
🌒🌕🌘 you are such a pleasure to watch. I appreciate what you do immensely.
A very timely video for me, since I just started reading A True and Faithful Relation, though it sounds like I should have started with The Heptarchia Mystica instead. Oh well, they'll both get read in the end! And my biggest regret after visiting the British Museum was missing the Dee paraphernalia. I didn't know they were there and must have walked right by them!
Thank you, Dr. Justin Sledge.

I love your podcasts.The are extremely informative.
Have you ever seen Francisco Goya's 1798 paintings up close? Especially Spanish: (Vuelo de Brujas) "Witches in Flight" or "Witches in Air."
"Witches of the Sabbath" (Spanish: El Aqauelarre) This last one was purchased in 1798 along with 5 other paintings related to witchcraft by the Duke and Duchess of Osuna.
These reflect Goya's disdain for popular tendency towards superstition and the church, which led to medieval fears and depiction of such scenes as medieval fears exploited by the establishment order for political capital and gain.
"Satin Eating His Children."
It is suggested that Goya might have been a Mason.
Whatever, I love all Goya's artwork. In fact, he is my favorite of all the great Masters.
I do love e all the great Masters of art, also. They were a delicious pot of stews with hankey pankey here and there throughout the centuries.
So be it with religions.
Hear! Hear!
"Dee's Wax". I will never stop laughing now. Thank you Justin!
The most surprising part of all this is that people put up with my sense of humor
@@TheEsotericaChannel it's one of the reasons why I started watching your videos all those years ago now. Years already, btw! But seriously, it's the breath of fresh air needed in a scene that always took itself way too seriously.
Yeah I try to take the material seriously l. Me, not so much. Great to hear from you!
You are in the service of The Angels, Dr. Sledge(even if they wanna wear my red shoes).
I love all the little funnies that you sneak in these episodes!!!
I've always had a weird interest with the Enochian Language. When I first started having to teach myself to speak it I understood that as a dead language there is now no one way to speak it so everyone just says all the syllables differently. However most of this in this video I knew nothing about but with a brief overview of it. I even taught myself the runes it has. I enjoy it but this was Amazing!
I'm honored to say that Dr. John Dee and I share the same bday❤️
Thank you Dr Sledgel, always a pleasure to discuss John Dee
This is great thorough content. When other videos would be ending, this was just starting.
You are possibly my favorite content creator, each and every video is so well thought out and well explained, thank you for what you do! Do you have any plans to make a video on djinn and the various beliefs and practices centered around them?
Probably not - let's talk religion has great content on the djinn
And thanks for the kind words!

Bofa Dee’s Notes
This is insightful. I learned a lot; Thank you. What I found most interesting was your information on the way the language is read and expressed. I value your wisdom and appreciate you taking the time to share with us. From Dahshon⚽️🎺
WOOoo! I have some merch coming for the holidays! 🤘🏻
Friday night Esoterica. Excellent. One I get home from work, nice pot of tea and a good few tramadol for the old back and tune right in. This brings me an unspeakable happiness 👍🏼
It's hilarious how much more coherant your breakdown of the Enochian System in this video is than I've gotten from practitoners in the A.'.A.'. or OTO (which I was in for many years till deciding, after far too many red flags, Thelema wasn't something I wanted to be part of... at least any "orthodox" Thelema which deifies Aleister.) David Shoemaker and Lon Milo DuQuette were the only two I've spoken to who seemed to know much about it. Thanks for making this. I have very little interest in practicing Enochian or Goetia as I have my own methods which jive with me I've developed on my own but I find studying such things fascinating and important to history (esoteric and exoteric).
Random questions:
Is anyone aware of whether or not the SRIA practice Enochian?
Is anyone in the comments a practitioner of Enochian and if you are what draws you you to it? What do you feel it gives you that other practices do not?
Given your history with OTO you should check out Marco Visconti. I think you would appreciate his work.
@@rishikesh1087 Yep we got on quite well. We've never met in person but have exchanged messages throughout the years. We don't see eye to eye on everything but that's a good thing to me so long as the difference in views is not about hatred or a despotic narcissistic worldview that wants to restrict the Freedoms and Will of others. He's a good guy :)
@@thishandleistacken Agreed....
@@thishandleistacken hey thanks :) Some answers to your questions:
No, the SRIA doesn't officially practice Enochian magic. It is possible that individual colleges might have classes on them, but there is no Enochian in their degree work and rituals.
Regarding why doing Enochian and what it gives you, it's simply a more immediate connection with the Other than any other system I ever worked with. It should also be said that it's my experience that the real "goal" of the system was to usher in an apocalypse, i.e. moving from the previous Aeon to the current. It obviously succeeded in doing so.
regarding question 2!
do you wish to hear the whimsical musings of a chaos magician who believes it discovered enochian magic on accident?
RIP J-Diddy. You were a real one.
"John D....eer"
Fantastic. I love your work. I'm so glad there are people like you who are making accessible the academic study of esoteric knowledge. Keep doing amazing work!
✌️🫶🦐
This info used to be hard to find the books were always sold out. Or single copies It was hard to find truth then this guy . With his non bias info .we love you .thank you so much
That John Dee(re) joke really cranked my tractor 😂
Hello, Deere ;)
Honestly, I know very little about John Dee, but I absolutely LOVE ciphers.
Love the lecture! I've just recently started learning about Dee, Kelley and Enochian texts/magic. It's really very interesting but is as confusing at the same time.
You're telling me...
