HEPTARCHA MYSTICA

 

In 1582, Edward Kelley scried the complete system of angel magic that is recorded in Dee's manuscript "De Heptarchia Mystica"

A heptarchy is a government of seven rulers.

Seven has great occult significance because there are seven wandering bodies that rule the heaven in ancient astrology. The seven astrological planets rule the Earth through the seven days of the week.

 

In the Enochian heptarchy, the seven spheres of planets are ruled by seven angelic Kings. Each King has a Prince and under each Prince are five Nobles.

The names of these forty-nine angels begin with the letter B (which may represents the number 7...).

The names were revealed to Kelley, letter by letter upon a table in the shape of a cross with seven parts, during a scrying working on April 29 1582.

Dee extracted in order forty-nine angels and called this table the "Tabula Angelorum Bonorum".

 

 

 

Each Prince also has a hierarchy of forty-two Ministers who rules the hours of the day in six group of seven, each group ruling four hours. Everyone of these forty-two Ministers is represented by a single letter, so that each of the six groups collectively has a single name of seven letters.

The King of each planet and his Prince rule the entire day associated with the planet of the King, but the serving Prince of each King is associated with a different planet on the Tabula Angelorum Bonorum.

 

The Heptarchya Mystica is divided into seven sections, each concerning a day of the week, the angelic King who rules the day and the planet of the day. Serving the King is the Prince of a different planet and the forty-two Ministers of the Prince. Each part of the section contains the circular seals of the Ministers of the Prince (you can find these seals in the "Enochian tools" section)

the seal of the Prince, and a seal containing the name of one of the seven Sons of the seven Sons of Light.

 

The principal Governor of the world is ,probably, Jesus Christ. After him in authority follows King Carmara, followed by his Prince Hagonel. Then come the six ranks of Ministers who serve Hagonel, each rank containing seven members.

  • Carmara came with the appearance of a proportioned man dressed in a long purple robe, wearing a triple crown upon his head. He carried a flag called "the Sign of the Work".

  • Hagonel appeared in the form of a man in a red robe and he held a round ring with a prik in the midst.

All the Princes together held up a great star with seven points which Dee called the "Heptagon Stellar" . It seemed to Kelley to be made of copper. This copper star appears to be the great seal for the heptarchical grimoire. It illustrates the correct order of the days. The day are to be ordered according to the order of the Princes on the ring of the 49 Good Angel:

  • Bornogo= Sunday

  • Befafes= Tuesday

  • Butmono= Thursday

  • Blisdon= Wednesday

  • Brorges= Saturday

  • Bralges= Monday

  • Bagenol= Friday

 

 

After the Princes present this great copper star, the servants of Prince Hagonel are presented.

These are the "Sons of men and their Sons". The Sons of men are the same as the Sons of Light.

The Sons of Light came as seven youths, wearing white garments. Everyone of them carried a metal ball in his hand. All had round tablets of gold on their breasts that bore the letters of their names.

The Sons of the Sons came in the forms of small boys wearing purple gowns. They had green triangular tablets on their breasts on which were written the letters of their names.
