From Rowe Enochian Magic System: The Seniors - This book is part of the record of an extended magickal working involving the Tablet of Earth from John Dee's Enochian magickal system.
Quote:
The planetary symbolism of the Seniors themselves appears only on a very superficial level, and has little to do with the content of their story. The plot of the story follows the sequence of the zodiac signs in precessional order, starting with the sign of Pisces, showing the Earth and her Lunar twin as the two fishes. Further development follows through Aquarius and the other signs until it ends in Aries, with a minor epilogue not related to the signs. The portion concerning the Earth-Spirit and the portion concerning the character Set follow parallel but separate threads until they meet in the sign of Scorpio, from which point the story goes forward in a single plotline. All the plot elements relate in some way to the _astrological_ (as opposed to the Cabalistic) attributes of the signs.
Quote:
The main characters represent the elements of the modified INRI or IRNI formula, presented in detail in the paper titled "Set / Horus" and several of my other papers. (The formula's appearance here is in fact the first clue I received as to the modified formula's existence.) Briefly, the Earth herself represents the first and last "I" of the formula, corresponding to the astrological signs Taurus and Aquarius respectively. This dual characterization shows her as both a celestial being in her own right (Aquarius = "The Star") and as the nurturing mother (Taurus, ruled by Venus and the Moon) within whose "womb" and at whose behest most of the action takes place.
Quote:
The protagonist, Set, corresponds to the "N" of IRNI, and his described character relates closely to that sign, its traditional ruler Mars, and its exalted planet Uranus. The sign's modern ruler, Pluto, appears only as an undercurrent and in the Pisces phase of Set's plotline. Set's opposite number, Horus, represents the "R" of INRI, corresponding to Sol and its sign Leo.
Quote:
The story presented by the Seniors is a history of the spiritual development of man on Earth, as viewed by the being who is the life of the Earth and those appointed to direct that development. The main characters are those beings whose actions are the root of the mythos of the gods Set and Horus, and the plot describes their conflicts as they contended for control of man's evolution over eighty million years. With the earlier works in this series, it also presents a reconstruction of the original mythos of Set, from before the time when priests of Horus and Osiris demolished his temples and turned him into a devil-god for their own forms of religion.
Quote:
There is also the question of identities to be considered. The reader might wonder, as he examines this work, just who the Seniors are speaking to. It would be absurd to think that the scribe, the fellow whose name appears in the copyright notice, is the one who did all the things the Seniors attribute to the one they speak to. He is all too human, very much a child of his times, and more than a little bit of a fool. But if not him, then who?

Quote:
"Our earth, being among the junior planets of the system, having not yet reached Tiphereth of that larger Tree in which the gods live and act, was not a party to the discussions but was only an observer. But unlike the seniors she was on a level where she was intimately connected with the type of force her brother manifested. And her love for her twin motivated her in a way the senior planets could not be. She devised a plan, and when the senior planets did not arrive at a satisfactory solution, she proposed her plan to Sol.
Quote:
"In Earth's proposed plan, she would take the involutionary forces of her brother's sphere into herself and hold them there by deep concentration. She would, by her concentration, create a shell around herself which would keep the involutionary force out of the rest of the system. Thus the other planets could continue to develop their themes without interference."
Quote:
"Even within this present universe will the effects of the Earth's proposal be felt. For these lives of men will spread out to the stars, when the gates are again open fully[/U], and they will catalyze similar reactions in other spheres, where conscious life exists but develops at a slow pace. Thus will our galaxy and universe benefit from the crisis of LunaEarth, as consciousness independent of the gods rises up all over in response to the calls of the souls of men.
Quote:
"The adepts of Active Intelligence, and of LoveWisdom, and of the lesser rays whowere acting in her sphere and under her direction could none of them accomplish this task. For their natures lack the forcefulness needed for such a solitary breakout as Sirius demanded. Only the adepts of the First Ray, the Will aspect, could succeed at this task, and those few of this type who were already working within Sol's system were working at tasks that they did not dare abandon. For the First Ray is not natural to our system and only enough adepts to fill the critical needs were there.
"So the call went out for adepts of the First Ray willing to fulfill the task set by Sirius. And this is where you yourself come into the story, o scribe who is a god. To tell of your part we must tell more of your origin than we have as yet.
Quote:
"But I digress. You continued to wander, seeking work worth your skills, until the call went out seeking adepts of the Will aspect for the Earth's plan of salvage. You were far away in space and time, but a god who had known you in the old days and had felt the gods' equivalent of compassion for you and frustration at his inability to help you, remembered and recommended you to the god Sirius. Sirius saw that you were ideal for this work, for you had already demonstrated an ability to free yourself from traps of a far greater strength than the Earth's blockade would be, and you were already capable of acting almost on the levels of the gods themselves. Thus your presence would ensure that the shell could always be broken, no matter how bad the disaster.
ENOCHIAN MAGIC ... JOHN DEE ... THE FIRST '007' SPY FOR THE QUEEN
Queen Elizabeth the First was a very interesting and intelligent lady and very knowledgeable in the occult arts. She surrounded herself with men of great esoteric knowledge in an effort to protect her kingdom from the enemy. At this time in history, the mystical arts were a prominent part of the court intrigue of the day. And, this occult knowledge helped to defend Elizabeth's throne as well.
Some believe Sir Francis Bacon may have been Elizabeth's 'secret son.' But, since Queen Elizabeth was known and loved by her people for being the 'virgin queen', Bacon's true identity was never revealed to the people.
One of the most powerful occult masters of Queen Elizabeth's court was John Dee. A brilliant occultist, scientist and mathematician. And, Dee was a close and trusted friend of the Queen. John Dee was also Queen Elizabeth's personal court astrologer. Elizabeth often consulted with Dee on important matters of state. And, he guided Elizabeth in ' the timing' of key events. Precision and timing can turn the tide in world events.
Sir Francis Bacon was also a very close friend of John Dee. They spent many a midnight hour together pondering the secrets of the universe. They were a brilliant strategic working team 'behind the scenes.'
While serving in Queen Elizabeth's court, John Dee created a form of magic that is still used today called Enochian Magic. He believed he was in communication with the angels from which he received this new language. Who Dee was actually in communication with has been greatly debated over the years. All we know is Dee's information came to him from 'another dimensional plane.'
John Dee was also the first '007' secret agent and spy for Great Britain. Dee signed his letters with the '007' signature. His classic '007' signature was an inspiration for the future creation of the special agent James Bond, and the books and films which followed.
John Dee was perhaps one of the most fascinating men in history, and his 'lasting influence' is still expressed in today's complex world.

Dee's 007, Tubal-Cain and the Rune of the "Original Language" 2006 12 28
By Henrik Palmgren
I recently posted a very interesting article entitled “Johannes Bureus, the Renaissance rune magician." Among other things, the article goes into the connection between ancient Hebrew and Nordic runes. It also elaborates on the connection with the Kabbalah and John Dee. So this sparked my interesting in returning to John Dee and reading about him and his Enochian Magic.
Those who are interested in these topics probably know that Dee signed his letters with two circles (zeros) and a seven: “007", with the seven having an elongated top part. In the article “Sir Francis Bacon and John Dee: the Original 007", we can read:
"Dr. Dee's learning was far and wide, a brilliant mathematician, whose study ranged from geo-cartography and calculus which was vital in navigating the New World for explorers, to astrology, alchemy, the Cabala, cypher writing, religion, architecture, and science. In short, Dee's metaphysics were a 'red' cross of the Hermetic tradition with a strong dose of mathematics. His library at the riverside village of Mortlake was considered the finest private collection in Europe containing thousands of bound books and handwritten manuscripts devoted to philosophy, science and esoterica. In comparison the University of Cambridge at the time had a mere 451 total books and manuscripts in their possession.

His library at the riverside village of Mortlake was considered the finest private collection in Europe containing thousands of bound books and handwritten manuscripts devoted to philosophy, science and esoterica. In comparison the University of Cambridge at the time had a mere 451 total books and manuscripts in their possession.
Noel Fermor in the journal Baconiana wrote that, "The Earl of Leicester's father, the Duke of Northumberland, employed Dee as a tutor to his children so that they would have a sound scientific upbringing. Northumberland became a notable scientist with a strong leaning toward mathematics and magnetism. Anthony Wood in his Athenae Oxoniensis, wrote "that no one knew Robert Dudley better than Dee." So it was quite natural for Leicester to introduce Dee to Elizabeth as she was to become the new Queen and it wasn't long before Dee advanced to become the court astrologer.
Leicester signed his letters to Elizabeth with two circles containing dots symbolising he was her "Eyes"
Elizabeth was very much interested in the occult. Dee was responsible for choosing the most auspicious date for Elizabeth's coronation which was on January 15th, 1559. The Queen was so impressed by Dee that she eventually travelled with her court to Mortlake, for the purpose of seeing his great library.
Dee has been defamed through the centuries as a necromancer, but it's the opinion of many writers that his angelic-cabalistic- alchemical work, his Philosophers Stone, the "Monad Hieroglyphica"(1564) may have been a cover for covert operations carried on in the name of her majesty. The 007 was the insignia number that Elizabeth was to use for private communiques between her Court and Dee.
Dee signed his letters with two circles symbolising his own two eyes and indicating that he was the secret eyes of the Queen.The two circles are guarded by what may be considered a square root sign or an elongated seven. For Dee, seven was a sacred cabbalistic and lucky number.(Richard Deacon)" So is it a seven, a square root sign or is it something else? Well, on the website of the "Order Of The White Wolf" they have a section called Enochian where we can read about the “The 49 Good Angels", and this can give us a hint on the importance of seven: The 49 Good Angels The 49 Good Angels are the first "worldly" angelic powers presented in this system. Those listed on the Sigil of Ameth are apparently in some way above the worlds in which men live, as are the Ensigns. Having presented the Ensigns, the archangel Michael introduces the 49 angels by saying: "Now you touch the world, and the doings upon the earth. Now we show you the lower world: The Governors that work and rule under God."
Dee and Kelly were presented with seven 7-by-7 tables. Each square of each table contained a letter and a number from 1 to 49. By gathering the letters with the same number in a certain sequence, the names of the angels were produced. The list of names, divided into groups of seven, were called the Tabula Collecta. Dee arranged these names into a circular table (called the Tabulum Bonorum), dividing the angels into groups of seven, with a King and a Prince heading each group.
See more images and read more about this here: The Seven Tables from which the names of the 49 "Good Angels" are derived.
Another take on this can be made if we simply rotate Dee’s 007 signature 90 degrees. It then looks like two balls and a club or a cane. The interesting about this is that there is a resemblance to the masonic symbol "Two Ball Cane".
See more here: twoballcanegc.com
And we can go even further on this because “Two Ball Cane" is allegedly a pun for “Tubal Cain" which is the secret password of a third degree mason, a "master mason".
On the site nisbett.com in an article about the peace sign we can read:
What is even more interesting is that Vulcan is adored in Masonry under the name of Tubal Cain. In the Masonic Quiz Book the question is asked: "Who was Tubal Cain?" The answer is: "He is the Vulcan of the pagans.''
In Masonry, Tubal Cain is the name of the password for the Master Mason (or third) degree.
Listen to what occultist and Mason, Manly Palmer Hall, has to say:
"When the Mason learns that the key to the warrior on the block is the proper application of the dynamo of living power, he has learned the mastery of his craft. The seething energies of Lucifer are in his hands and before he may step onward and upward, he must prove his ability to properly apply energy. He must follow in the footsteps of his forefather, Tubal-Cain, who with the mighty strength of the war god hammered his sword into a ploughshare.''
There is also a sexual connotation associated with Vulcan and Tubal Cain. Former Mason, Bill Schnoebelen, explains:
"For Masons who wish to conceal their membership from non-Masons, but still advertise it to their Lodge brothers, there is a special pin (or tie tack) they can wear. It looks like an upside down golf club with two balls near the top....Many people assume the person is a golfing enthusiast, but it is actually a visual Masonic pun.
"This is called the 'Two Ball Cane,' and is a pun on the secret password of a Master Mason, 'Tubalcain (sic).'...It is also an all-too-obvious pun on the 'god' of Masonry, the male reproductive organ. Nice, eh?...especially when many men wear these wretched things to church on Sunday!" We can also go in a in a different direction and connect the 7 of Dee's 007 with the “original language" that Johannes Bureus connected the runes with.
If we look at a chart of Bureus runes, that I picked up from the article the Rune-Cross of Johannes Bureus, we can see that there is a very close resemblance between the "L" sign and Dee's 007 sign. This is rune is called "Lagher" and very appropriatly it has the numerological value of 700.
