The Quest for Divine Authority - Rolandvere - 12-07-2021 John Dee (July 13, 1527 ââ¬â 1608 or 1609) was a noted British mathematician, astronomer, astrologer, geographer, occultist, and consultant to Queen Elizabeth I. He also devoted much of his life to alchemy, divination, and Hermetic philosophy.  :candleflame:  :candleflame:  :candleflame:  Dr. Dee straddled the worlds of science and magic just as they were becoming distinguishable. One of the most learned men of his time, he had lectured to crowded halls at the University of Paris when still in his early twenties. He was an ardent promoter of mathematics, a respected astronomer and a leading expert in navigation, having trained many of those who would conduct Englandââ¬â¢s voyages of discovery. (He coined the term ââ¬ÅBritish Empire.ââ¬Â) At the same time, he immersed himself deeply in Judeo-Christian magic and Hermetic philosophy, devoting the last third of his life almost exclusively to these pursuits. For Dee, as with many of his contemporaries, these activities were not contradictory, but particular aspects of a consistent world-view.  http://www.faust.com/legend/john-dee/     Dr. John Dee, despite his apparent delusions, was one of the keenest minds of his time. He his credited for making the calculations that would enable England to use the Gregorian calendar, he championed the preservation and the collection of historic documents and he was very well known for being a great astronomer and mathematician. It could be said that Dr. Dee was the one of the first modern scientists, although he was one of the last serious alchemists, necromancers and crystal gazers.  http://www.themystica.com/mystica/articles/d/dee_john.html   :butterfly:   :)      The Quest for Divine Authority - Guest - 12-07-2021 https://youtu.be/Ms5bgw10xgM The Quest for Divine Authority - Rolandvere - 12-07-2021 John Dee had an extensive interest in the occult and higher learning.   Propaedeumata Aphoristica about Mathematics, Astrology and magic   The Quest for Divine Authority - Rolandvere - 12-08-2021 Symbols are like onions; a layered and densely filled container.    The Hieroglyphic Monad contains information about symbolic language    The Quest for Divine Authority - Rolandvere - 12-08-2021 Esoteric knowledge is can be dangerous to behold.
