The Angelic Calls
These eighteen Keys (or Calls) were channelled to Dee by the “Angels” or extraterrestrial intelligences and are intended for use with the entire Enochian system as a whole, but may also stand alone as powerful prayers or ritual invocations.
They are to be used wisely and cautiously, with an attitude of reverence appropriate for approaching a mighty Force. In the interests of magical discretion, we have only provided the English version of the Calls.
The
First Key
I rayng ouer you, sayeth the God of Iustice,
in powre exalted above
the firmaments of wrath: in whose

my
hands: whose seats I garnished with the fire of gathering,
and
bewtified your garments wth admiration. To whome I made
a law to
govern the holy ones and deliuered you a rod with
the ark of
knowledg. Moreouer you lifted vp your voyces and

and faith to him that liueth and
triumpheth] whose begynning is not,

The
Call or Key of the
Thirty
Aethyrs
O you
heuens which dwell in the First Ayre, the mightie in the partes
of
the Erth, and execute the Iudgment of the Highest! To you it is
sayd,
Beholde the face of your God, the begynning of cumfort, whose
eyes
are the brightnes of the hevens: which prouided you for
the
gouernment of
the Erth and her vnspeakable varietie, furnishing you
wth
a powr vnderstand to dispose all things according to the
providence
of Him
that sitteth on the Holy Throne, and rose vp in the
begynning,
saying:
the Earth let her be gouerned by her parts and let there be
diuision
in her, that the glory of hir may be allwayes drunken and
vexed
in it self. Her course, let it ronne wth the hevens, and as
a
handmayd let her
serve them. One season let it confownd an other, and
let
there be no creature vppon or within her the same: all her
members
let them
differ in their qualities, and let there be no one creature
aequall
wth an other: the reasonable Creatures of the Erth let them
vex
and weede out one an other, and the dwelling places let them
forget
thier names:
the work of man, and his pomp, let them be defaced: his
buyldings
let them become caves for the beasts of the feeld. Confownd
her
vnderstanding with darknes. For why? It repenteth me I made Man.
One
while let her be known and an other while a stranger: bycause she
is
the bed of a Harlot, and the dwelling place of Him that is Faln.
O
you heuens
arrise: the lower heuens vnder neath you, let them serve
you!
Gouern those that govern: cast down such as fall! Bring furth
with
those that encrease, and destroy the rotten! No place let it
remayne
in one number: ad and diminish vntill the stars be numbred!
Arrise,
Move, and Appere before the Couenant of his mowth, which he
hath
sworne vnto vs in his Iustice. Open the Mysteries of your
Creation:
and make vs partakers of Vndefyled Knowledg.
