Description
The Hieroglyphic Monad is a book written by Dr. John Dee, an English mathematician, astronomer, and occult philosopher. The book is a treatise on the mystical and symbolic language of hieroglyphics, which Dee believed held the key to understanding the underlying principles of the universe. In the book, Dee presents the Hieroglyphic Monad, a symbol that he believed represented the unity of all things in the universe. He argues that this symbol can be used to unlock the secrets of the cosmos and gain insight into the nature of reality. The book is divided into three parts. In the first part, Dee provides an introduction to the concept of the Hieroglyphic Monad and explains its significance. In the second part, he presents a detailed analysis of the symbol and its various components, including its geometric properties and its relationship to the planets and other celestial bodies. In the third part, Dee discusses the practical applications of the symbol, including its use in divination and magic.Throughout the book, Dee draws on a wide range of sources, including ancient Egyptian texts, Greek philosophy, and Christian mysticism. He also incorporates his own mathematical and scientific knowledge, making the book a unique blend of mysticism and rational inquiry.Overall, The Hieroglyphic Monad is a fascinating exploration of the symbolic language of hieroglyphics and its potential for unlocking the secrets of the universe. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of occult philosophy and the esoteric traditions of the Western world.1946. Translated into English for the first time, this book was written by the Elizabethan magus, Dr. John Dee in 1564. He explains his discovery of the monas, or unity underlying the universe, as seen in a hieroglyph or symbol. The monad is representative of the alchemic process and goal of the magus, who in partaking of the divine, achieves that gnostic regenerative experience of becoming God and thus furthering the redemption and transmutation of the worlds.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
