description: The Hieroglyphic Monad is a book written by Dr. John Dee, an English mathematician, astronomer, astrologer, and occult philosopher who lived during the 16th and 17th centuries. The book is a treatise on the nature of the universe and the relationship between the microcosm and the macrocosm, presented in the form of a mystical symbol known as the Hieroglyphic Monad.The Hieroglyphic Monad is a complex symbol that represents the unity of all things in the universe, from the smallest particle to the largest galaxy. It is composed of various elements, including geometric shapes, astrological symbols, and alchemical symbols, and is said to contain the key to understanding the mysteries of the universe.In the book, Dee explains the meaning and significance of the Hieroglyphic Monad, and how it can be used to unlock the secrets of the universe. He explores various topics, including the nature of time and space, the relationship between the physical and spiritual worlds, and the role of the human soul in the grand scheme of things.The Hieroglyphic Monad is a highly esoteric work, and is considered by many to be one of Dee's most important contributions to the field of occult philosophy. It has been studied and interpreted by generations of scholars and practitioners of the occult, and continues to inspire new ideas and insights into the mysteries of the universe.1946. Translated into English for the first time, this book was written by the Elizabethan magus, Dr. John Dee in 1564. He explains his discovery of the monas, or unity underlying the universe, as seen in a hieroglyph or symbol. The monad is representative of the alchemic process and goal of the magus, who in partaking of the divine, achieves that gnostic regenerative experience of becoming God and thus furthering the redemption and transmutation of the worlds.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
