Post subject: John Dee's "Lost Book"  PostPosted: Sep 20, 2008 - 06:42 AM

That book, called the Ordines Descendens (claimed to be a "lost" book by John Dee, but dealing with invoking the demons in Enochian rather than the angels) is back on the market. It was published last year in a limited edition of only 200, which sold out in a few weeks. Many people who wanted one heard about it too late and missed out. It has now been printed in a second edition, this time not limited to 200. It can be purchased on eBAY by email to anywhere in the world. I am not sure if everyone agrees Satanic Enochian links psychologically or current-wise with Thelema, but I like to think so - a chance to communicate directly with The Beast 666, Mega-Therion, by invoking him direct into your front room? Includes 13 previously unknown Enochian Keys (including one for summoning the Angel of Death!). A penpal in the USA who bought the book last year emailed me with some of these keys, and the Enochian language seems to check out. Goto eBAY and just type "ordines descendens" into the eBAY search window and see for yourself. I have already ordered one. K.

Needless to say, the book has no connection to Dee and any suggestion to the contrary is marketing bullshit. It will be obvious to anyone who's read the G.D. version that there is already a full complement of "cacodemons" (as well as creatures of mixed purity in earlier sections), so the premiss of the book -- that it contains "missing" sections dealing with the infernal hierarchies -- is easily disproved.

To repeat earlier comments -- at this stage, the only option for the serious student is still to read the manuscripts themselves. One can't get an accurate picture from Tyson or DuQuette, since Tyson seems to have speed-read the manuscripts and DuQuette seems merely to have cribbed from him.

Karnaina: Can you give us your word that this isn't just a piece of advertising fluff? Are you connected in any way with the seller?
