Description: "This volume is an exact and complete transcription of a late 17th century compendium of Western esoteric ideas on Angel Magic. An important occult manuscript in the British Library, Harley 6482 includes sections on the Schemhamphoras, the hierarchies of fallen angels, the Images of the Mansions of the Moon, the Nature Spirits, and John Dee's Enochian system of Angel conjuration, and concludes with Dr. Rudd's Treatise on the Nine Hierarchies of Angels and their conjuration to visible appearance. It is thus an outstandingly complete sourcework on Angel conjuration, correspondences and symbolism, and will be of great value to both scholars and occultists for assessing the broad spectrum of ideas present in Medieval and Renaissance Angel Magic. The book is highly illustrated with explanatory charts and diagrams."--Publisher's description.
