Enochian 204: Substituting Words in the Call to the Aethyrs
Channel: EnochianDotToday

This video is a brief overview of substituting in different Enochian-language words into the Call to the Aethyrs, rather than the name of the desired Aethyr. This is the equivalent of saying, “O you heavens which dwell in Peace…” rather than “O you heavens which dwell in the Aethyr of TEX.”

Crucial to understanding why one might do this is to consider the various ways we describe “heaven,” especially in Western philosophy (though I firmly believe that a dialectic about “heaven and earth” can deeply inform philosophies in the Eastern & Western traditions!). I describe various ways to consider what we mean by “heaven” and why this would lead one to experiment with different words here.

I also touch on an experiment, just before taping, of substituting a word from the “Lingua Ignota” of St. Hildegard of Bingen in the call to the Aethyrs. This was interesting because both words mean “eye(s),” but there were somewhat different results!

With these later 200-level videos, we’re venturing into uses of Enochian that come from experimentation and/or inspired uses that were not a direct part of the initial transmission to John Dee and Edward Kelley. Specifically, I should add here that I am definitely not the first magician to try this technique, but I have tried to expand the list of words to use it on.
