In this Thelema NOW episode, Harper interviews Joseph Peterson, about "Mysteriorum Libri Quinque: Dr. John Dee's Five Books of Mysteries. [https://www.amazon.com/Mysteriorum-Libri-Quinque-Mysteries-Editions/dp/1578638224?pd_rd_w=KHNV8&content-id=amzn1.sym.f5690a4d-f2bb-45d9-9d1b-736fee412437&pf_rd_p=f5690a4d-f2bb-45d9-9d1b-736fee412437&pf_rd_r=VNV2VAZXG268HJDA13GK&pd_rd_wg=ZplTz&pd_rd_r=988e75cd-b4ef-4773-b8d3-ab6bad775691&pd_rd_i=1578638224&psc=1&linkCode=sl1&tag=esotericarchi-20&linkId=1134d9aa648c5ca452f2c8c7bd8b9986&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl]" This book from the 16th century, remains to this day one of the most important core texts of occult literature and a comprehensive guide to Enochian magic, encompassing language, symbolism, rituals, and practical techniques. This deluxe Weiser Ankh edition is a compilation of John Dee’s secret spiritual treatises and was prepared from the original manuscript (preserved in the British Library) in Dee’s own handwriting. These secret writings were discovered long after John Dee’s death (c. 1609); they had been tucked away in a hidden compartment of an old wooden chest and were remarkably spared from destruction—uncovered only a few years before the Great Fire of London in 1666. In these five secret treatises, John Dee, one of the most renowned scholars of the Elizabethan era, records in minute detail his research into the occult. Joseph discusses working with damaged manuscripts, Dee's Biblical references, and Divine Revelation. They also mention Esoeric Archives, which you can access here [https://www.esotericarchives.com/].

Thelema Now's Harper Feist talks with Barry William Hale about his latest work, Arcana Arcanorum by Robert C. Stein. The book is a comprehensive exploration of Aleister Crowley's holy book, Liber Arcanorum. In Arcana Arcanorum, Robert C. Stein presents an initiate's perspective into the system as a whole. He further explores in depth the significance of each individual sigil and its corresponding name. Complementing this analysis, Barry William Hale offers a series of 22 mesmerizing drawings, each piece ingeniously merging the upright and averse spirit of each tarot card into a single, unified form. Together, the engrossing artwork and penetrating analysis uniquely honors and unveils the mysteries of the holy book.     Now available for purchase at Ingram Spark [https://shop.ingramspark.com/b/084?f5Pc31RtdOmLlFwymx1GKz2T5vCFWNFH7HAbZKFSe4N&fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR3h_AbcmA4lyuk6A7SsLHd63xf7oQByLWi5f27hnS4aawrS-msbk1RgeNA_aem_P8FERxrQzen4RnShuMOvRw].      Barry William Hale's 231 artwork from this book, along with a number of other pieces, will be featured in an upcoming VR title "Arcanorum 231" available to wishlist on steam here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/744690/ARCANORUM_231/ [https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fstore.steampowered.com%2Fapp%2F744690%2FARCANORUM_231%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR3rkIHC3qEicVYEfBdzAp3M4zHEq-7dGH-5p1iYcPpREVM3gsPquuNYFV4_aem_-LPxHqrNlEDDXgYiU-XJQA&h=AT1WWPTwcTPv8qetkgdhRsay2VpvLDp47mg2Azjw_QOj5SDHVZwRp781ZXMBJt7FR2M17HPTxI3Z9Hjg4RHz2m3LDJpNCg_IY-JkJ_dkcLMsI0hlvwCvt66zzJfV8RtMqA-_0cIo1TuLED1U-Q&__tn__=-UK-R&c[0]=AT1ruMFfhgQhv6CgS39FOFBWtjzjqVIlWRbsJ5BBjXV35NiUjFJMpe5UGXF3YqQWp03Pi6xcZdBo0Q9yMv4n52ODOE_aIIzOcpri4kBNC2cdB-36Yu5b5KjPeu5Uk6eJfYoQL5yswZvM2xYbiipZiCi74EleHdmy2hD2n9n_1WVJ0M3syBM95oj7giU7xXDETg]
