The Calls of Enoch (Angelical Keys)

Also known as the Angelical Keys or Calls, this text contains the invocations used in the Enochian system to address angelic powers through a specialized revealed language. Of major importance in the history of Western esotericism, it provides the verbal core of Enochian practice, and readers will find the calls themselves, transliterations, and explanatory material surrounding their ritual function.

John Dee (1527–1608/9) was an English mathematician, astrologer, antiquary, and natural philosopher whose writings deeply influenced Renaissance esotericism. He is especially important for his angelic conversations, alchemical interests, and attempts to unite learned magic, Hermetic philosophy, and Christian devotion.
