Book Description
Dr. John Dee (1527-1608) was one of the greatest minds of the Elizabethan Age, and his system of angelic communication was the result of the most dramatic magical operation ever recorded. It has survived to become the cornerstone of the modern ceremonial magician's practice. In 1582 Dee and his clairvoyant partner Edward Kelley made magical contact with a number of spiritual entities who identified themselves as angels — the same that communicated with Adam, Enoch, and the patriarchs of the Old Testament. Over the next three years they revealed to Dee and Kelley three distinct magical systems of vision magick. The third and last of these incorporated a series of "calls" to be recited in an angelic language in order to raise the consciousness of the magician to a level where angelic contact is possible. Best-selling author and magician, Lon Milo DuQuette, who has practiced Dee's system for over twenty-five years, has seized upon elements of the original Dee material overlooked by adepts of the Golden Dawn, Aleister Crowley, and other modern magicians, and brought them to light in Enochian Vision Magick. DuQuette offers the expert and novice alike the practical means by which they can become attuned in the same simple step-by-step manner that first prepared Dee and Kelley. There has never been a book on Enochian magick like this one.

 A Definitive Book on the Subject July 2, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Lon DuQuette has written the best book I've ever encountered with regard to the Enochian system - it is a complete guide to the Angelic operations of Dr. John Dee and Edward Kelley. "Enochian Vision Magick" is both well-written and easily accessible, even for beginners in the art. The historical context is invaluable in aiding the reader to fully grasp the complexity and intricacy of the operations. By including all the received material prior to the Enochian phase (especially the Heptarchia), DuQuette successfully endeavors to attune the reader in a similar manner to Dee and Kelly, thereby increasing the overall understanding and effectiveness of the workings. This book is simply superb and would be a great benefit to any esoteric library! This may be DuQuette's best book thus far...
 DVD on Enochian Magick by Lon Milo DuQuette is available! June 28, 2008

I wonder why Lon Milo Duquette's Enochian Magick - A Treatise on Angelic Evocation, in which Lon Milo DuQuette narrates this subject in step by step fashion is not bundled with this work? I find this video to be the best possible source for anyone from beginner to advanced in this area. I originally purchased the video originally on VHS some years ago and next bought the expanded version when it was recently released on DVD. I looked for it on Amazon and then finally found it while searching the Internet. I have read many of the author's other books and found them humorous in parts, and in some instances informative, albeit a bit lacking in real depth when it comes to serious investigative explanations. Perhaps he should revisit his earlier efforts and return to the quality and quantity of what is contained in that particular DVD.
A Book I Wish I Wrote June 17, 2008

"Enochian Vision Magick" may be DuQuette's finest book to date and his greatest contribution to modern students of magic in general and Enochian in particular. Looking at the core texts and using them in context, DuQuette provides a framework for working the various Enochian systems in a fashion similar to, if not identical, to the work undertaken by Dee and Kelly. Endorsements from Richard Kaczinski, Geoffrey James and Stephen Skinner round out the echoing applause of Clay Holden's Foreword. This is a book every student of Enochian will use and refer to.
More importantly, DuQuette appears to have joined the small but growing chorus of voices - a chorus which includes Dr. Stephen Flowers, Dr. Joseph Lisiewski, and myself - that emphasize the need to perform rituals in the context they were written.
Stating that the Golden Dawn/Crowley rituals of Enochian have no resemblance to the rituals performed by Dee and Kelly, Duquette gives his obligatory kudos to those who have gone before him, but then states that he has not performed those rituals in about ten years. Clearly they are good, but not good enough, and those who work with the material in this book will see and understand why.
In some small way, whether he knows it or not, I am in part responsible for Bro. DuQuette's advancement along these lines as he states, "...in 2003 my O.T.O. Brother and Enochian magick adept Christos Pir sent me a computer disk of material from a marvelous Enochian seminar he presented in Pittston, Pennsylvania....I assure you, I could not have written this book without these materials and the profound insights of this great modern magician." It was the Institute for Hermetic Studies that invited Christos Pir to present that weekend, and we agree whole heartedly with DuQuette, it was a marvelous seminar.

Another great book. June 14, 2008

I feel I have to review this book, if only to dispute what some idiot said about all of this nice man's reviews being faked. What a jerk! The book is great, as are all of his books. His readers get to experience a part of his life through his personal experiences in each and every book. He's a great writer, and a great man. Every, and I mean every, email I have ever sent this man has been returned by Lon in person. He is truly the genuine article. His fans are very loyal, so for any person to say his reviews are fake, perhaps you should get to know the author through his books before you start throwing stones and calling the rest of us liars. The book is GREAT! If you love Lon, you will love this book. You will not be dissapointed.

I'm almost done with it, but I don't want it to be over! I ordered this as soon as it was available from Amazon. Even though I've not finished reading it, I feel confident that my high opinion will not change.
This is the book I've been waiting for. I've read a few books on Enochian Magick and afterwards said to myself, "Huh? Where do I begin? I'm still confused."
This is by far the clearest book on the subject. Mr. DuQuette never "dumbs down" the material but somehow is able to make the complex world of Enochian Magick available to anyone who makes an effort. The material is so exciting, that I've had to stop myself from constructing all the really cool stuff before I've finished the book.
Bravo.
