5:53 it's very interesting the book Kelly is holding is by Johannes Trithemius. It doesn't say, but its likely J.T.s' book Steganographia, a book that reads like your stereotypical book on summoning demonic and angelic entities, trapping souls in crystals, etc but in reality is a book on hiding text in coded language. J.T. was the teacher of both Paracelsus and Cornelius Agrippa. John Dee was well aware of this book as well.
That's very interesting, especially in the context of Dee being accused of spying during his visit to Poland. Also, according to Wikipedia, Robert Hooke suggested that John Dee used Trimethian steganography to conceal his communication with Elizabeth I.
@@michakuak3183 there is absolutely a connection between these "magicians" and being spies through history as well, from Benjamin Franklin meeting Cagliostro to Aliester Crowley working for British Intelligence, Houdini seems to have been a spy as well
@@kathymyers7279 very interesting idea, I never considered it! He might have lived around the same time but I really don't know much about his background. These guys weren't really in the business of prophecy, but as far as Johannes Trithemius guideline for writing secret texts, I imagine it would work perfectly.
Light thinks it travels faster than anything but it is wrong. No matter how fast light travels, it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it. - Sir Terry Pratchett
the candle burns, still within though long snuffed out the flame darkness all around me friend:. God, though here, hidden in disguised, by nature of said light why is it, the darkness then:. all around, felt struck within begining of, and my end all the joy, and endless fright... for if there were no darkness then, where could shine forth what's bright?
@@Delgen1951 Tesla: Matter is created from the original and eternal energy that we know as light. It shone, and then appeared stars, the planets, man, and everything on Earth and in the Universe. Matter is an expression of infinite forms of light, because energy is older than it. There are four laws of creation. The first is that (it is) the source of all the baffling, dark plot that the mind cannot conceive, or mathematics measure. In that plot fit the whole Universe. The second law is spreading a darkness, which is the true nature of light, from the inexplicable and it’s transform (ation) into the Light. The third law is the necessity of the light to become a matter of light. The fourth law is: no beginning and no end; three previous laws always take place and the Creation is eternal.3
@@five_leaf_clover Dude that irrelevant to the fact that darkness is the LACK of light, darkness is the shadow of something that block light, leaving the Lack of light in its shadow, thus darkness is the lack of light. May i say that in this metaphor you are blinding yourself by being too literal. If you want to get into Genesis 1,1 then you are also being to literal as well, after God divided the light form the darkness when He setup the creation as his temple space. much ink has been spilled over the last three thsound years over this. The laws are but His decrees. The universe is not eternal, it had a beginning and will have an end.
I was lucky enough to see this painting close up in the archives of the Wellcome Library! The story about the skull array was a bit eerie when you’re standing right in front of it - it’s pretty big and that empty space right in front of Dee really draws you in.
The astrological chart you’ve shown is Dee’s own: date of birth 13 July, 1527. He used astrology to select 15 January, 1559 for the date of Elizabeth Tudor’s coronation.
. . . and (if accounts are to be trusted to be genuine and not imagined for publicity sake) the '00' and elongated '7' implied "For Your (Elizabeth I) Eyes Only". A fashionable travelling polymath with leanings to the divine occult and remote communication would be the perfect premise for the covert working protector of an Heretical anti-Catholic Sovereign.
The four skulls represent John Dee's wife and two children that died during the Bubonic Plague. His one son was actually speculated to be Kelleys. He also had two daughters, yet their fates are unknown. It is speculated at least one or both of them perished in the same epidemic.
John Dee was interested in his Welshness. I believe if I remember his diaries; he travelled to Newcastle Emlyn in Carmarthenshire to trace and contact his cousins. It’s noted that one of his cousins was one Thomas Jhones, who is the Welsh ‘Robin Hood’, also known as Twm Shon Cati. So indeed, the Welshess of Dee is worth noting.
That which is most hidden and sacred to all life, is hidden in a dark cave. Only the most courageous dare to enter. Men who have not yet entered the cave, jovially attempt to discuss what's hidden inside, from the comforts of the known visible world.
I love that after watching your documentaries I am still thinking about the character's. Brilliantly narrated and packed with little pieces of information that many of us may not have known about local or national history. Thank you. "More please".
I was crushed when I was visiting London and the John Dee museum exhibit was closed😢 Fortunately I got to visit Prague a few days later and got to learn about and tour his life there.
Well done. I would not be surprised to learn that the artist created and then deliberately hid the skulls (and other details) as homage to the hidden supernatural rather than a desire to tone down the visual story. The absence of the floating alligator (or crocodile) and Edward Kelly in the X-Ray image (along with other items) could be a statement of another sort; I've read that some consider Kelly to have been a deliberate charlatan who manipulated and deceived Dee. The painting certainly encourages exotic speculation.
Definitely added after the picture was completed, and the dark heavy figure made this way to cover up the background from showing through, but clearly absent in the xray. The artist may have felt the "weight" of the scene played to heavily on the left side of the canvas and added the dark figure to bring some equality across the scene. There does not seem to be anthing really sinister, but I cannot see clearly enough to tell what is being covered.............Perhaps something was there that would have been incredibly offensive, such as items deemed to have no purpose other than magics, and perhaps the darker end of that realm, was visible before the assistant was added.
Newton was similarly a hermetic scholar. Their kind of high-brow esotericism wasn't necessarily equated with witchcraft. This started to change with the translation of the OT into English, but it wasn't until the age of enlightenment that the incompatibility of science and magic became the consensus
It's pretty ironic because science is just magic that works. And belief in magic probably fueled the imaginations of the enlightened. You can't write a great work by learning a dictionary, or paint a masterpiece by watching someone paint a house. Magic was ultimately just a way of conditioning the mind using ritual, allegory or other various methods, so the intellect could follow along, speculate and strive for ideas beyond the limits of human comprehension. It's sad that its place was lost.
I think Newton was certainly interested in alchemy rather than the hermetica. Casaubon had discredited the antiquity of the hermetica by was it early 17th. Still, Newton was an energetic polymath, interested in everything. Hasn’t Bill Newman just written on Newton? Newman is a very good author historian of science.
@@skobywankenobi A belief in magic- or rather the belief that nature was a designed clockwork mechanism who's inner workings could be discovered by applying arbitrary numbers to them, certainly fuelled his work Gravity. It also fuelled his hatred of Catholics and lower class people and his almost unprecedented narcissism- something that often happens when you believe that the entire universe is a puzzle or toy created by god for your benefit and that your messing about with star charts means you are close to discovering the truth. The idea that the modern scientific method that discovered germs, MRI scanners and penicillin owes anything to that part of him other than by coincidence is ridiculous. Those groundbreaking discoveries may have involved methods of deduction with involved one or two elements of Platonic logic or Aristotelean reason, but those elements could have been set out by anyone, including someone who didn't believe that they alone where privy to the secrets of nature and the secrets of perfect morality.
Col Percy Fawcett 👍🏻was my first story of yours 😉👍🏻, subscribed then , has a listener watcher i enjoy your laid back no rush story telling , not spoilt by invasive 🎺🎸🥁soundtrack imo , every credit to you 👏👏and thanks again 🏴🇬🇧
this painting is incredible! each face has slight different expression. there are people in different poses trying to see what’s going on. Glindoni is a new painter for me. 🌷🌱
Terrific video. As a former scientific rationalist, who abandoned science when it couldn't explain my repeated prophetic dreams, I found John Dee to be an inspiration and ceremonial magick a better method for understanding reality. Enochian Magick is the child of Dee and Kelley. Ah, the con man Kelley who Aleister Crowley believed was one of his incarnations. Did he have a real gift for scrying? My best guess is yes, the Enochian messages he received are too internally consistent to be gibberish, and people practice such magick to this day with remarkable results, but since this happened half a millennium ago, all we have are guesses.
In the end magic is simply science which cannot be easily deciphered. Everything that occurs and exists, in truth, is "rational", the only distinction is what can be quantified and what can only be qualified.
Undercover Vampire Policeman is a lovely piece of music and dig the title too. Love this bit of history and the reveal of the painting under the painting was very cool. Thanks 💀🔥🤓
Deuteronomy 18:10 “There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch,”
Incredible video. Thanks for sharing a fascinating look at a very interesting man and an interesting painting. Out of curiosity what's the title of the music you used in the video?
If you are the same person, your research goes from myth to four horsemen to debt relief & living human, to magic unicorns & geo-politics, such an interesting guy! Thanks!
Practitioners of hermeticism studied astrology, alchemy and theurgy. The painting appears to be a demonstration being performed of the third or possibly second.
He brought back Globes of the earth? He was a navigator and mathematician. He for one knew that triangulation was, and continues to be used, the primary way to navigate the earth. The problem is triangulation cannot be used to navigate or map on a curved surface as on the globe Earth.
1. Kelly's is fairly well documented, along with his published books. You just got to know where to look and find. Some are not widely accessible to the common man before recent years. 2. You say lines between magick and science became blurred, but remember there was not the word Science back then, it was a fragmented territory: math, geometry (eclucids work that Dee translated from greek/latin to english), religion (which incorporated magick), alchemy, navigation, copy of books by handwriting until Gutenbergs method spread around the world, but it was a costly process to get a book printed, so writing by hand was what Dee mostly did (besides his printed books). 3. You should visit the London museum and show the wax tablet, his image of God and other magick tools that are preserved. 4. Mention how many of his manuscripts on enochian magick surfaced from a furniture, where Dee had made a secret room to store the stack of papers he wrote, often encrypted, several hundred years after Dee had died. 5. That he had ownership of the largest museum of books/manuscripts. Larger than any other in England, perhaps Europe. He was a collector and compiler of ancient knowledge. Well educated and spoke several languages, including the enochian language that he and Kelly received during their many years working together summoning spirits that dictated this knowledge to them. 6. Aleister Crowley continued Dee's work and gained a lot of knowledge from practice the same rituals as Dee did. Crowley had another person serving as Dee's role, writing down what Crowley saw and heard looking into the crystal, working the tablet and building the massive complex altair that the angels gave instructions how to construct. 7. Polen was not Polen as we know it, it was called Bohemia under the rule of the King of Bohemia, which was very interested in magick and spiritual matters. He had the title The Holy Roman Emperor. Besides those things that would spice up your presentation, I did enjoy it. Thumbs up ofc.
"Every part of the universe is invisibly linked to the rest thru a network of 'sympathetic' connections". Indeed. I have seen similar connections since my Near Death Experience in 2006. "The Soul and the material body are knitted together. " you got that right!! I remember being LITERALLY SEWN to a wooden wheel that turns and pointed to the mighty night sky! .. I saw many symbolic messages but that one was the real1st
Your NDE may have not been near, you may have Actually died and then jumped timelines. Its a very solid theory, that we never truly die. Our spirit is endless. Quantum suicide theory. I have had way toooo many NDES to have not actually died at some point. Cheers to knowledge! 🍻
@@DutchCrunch333 brilliant 👏. I got get many intelligent replies. I've thought the same thing... maybe I didn't make it but did at the same time. More quantum mechanics for ya. I went thru many portals and or Stargate. One was in a sbig quare room that I KNEW was like a scarab transporting me there. Another I was flying lije an Isis pose with my arms stretched out to either side and my feet straight down. I could travel in any direction at the speed of thought and the time was connected to the angle I went. I had another where I was what looked like space but in the craft that was almost identical to a walnut or brain. Flat on the floor but had 2 sides lije 2 halves of the brain. Another ti N e I was in this Stargate device where the lid came down and closed and there was maybe six of us in that machine. I went to this most brilliant looking galaxy type place that was home to endless amounts of souls that were translucent with many multi level floors that these beings would just float they the walls or floors to go up or down depending on where they are going... upon entering this MASSIVE spiraling galaxy looking place but the vivid display if colors had ever seen with many different vibrant colors that had a direct connection to the beings there. I knew if they evolved or dis something to earn a change in place. Jot quite sure but I did see one level playing a real life game and if the died or they failed they would sink to the floors below and stay over. The different colors that changed when looking at this place from afar was a show stopper. If there was ever a real place like "home" or a heaven this was it!! Everyone was right where they belonged and the vomits were FULL SPECTRUM. a phrase I heard. This wasn't OVER the rainbow IT WAS the rainbow. I saw this entity in a deeper level that reminded me very much of the Egyptian God of the afterlife that was half crocodile and half hippo if I remember correctly.. i was in the reddish area with hue if yellow and orange.. he had this huge transparent egg shaped device in his hands that had inside what looked like a lava lamp....as I stood there watching he suddenly flipped the egg shape see thru aperatus upside down and I could see the lighter material rushing to the top as the heavier more dense material stayed or sank to the bottom.. soon as this lighter goo rose to the top I was transported out of there instantly. . Thats just the tip of the iceberg I assure you.. i was told I'd have to "write it myself," after I came back thru the last 'secret' door I was told, "You MUST play the game" I say secret because the doorways only they xan see are shortcuts to elite places like Hollywood & music. I've have many things come true so far and only in hindsight can I make sense in what perspective they (or i) meant. I do know the write it myself part as The BAY-SIX 6 VI-King AuTHOR in the YOU ESSAY.. I've learned you CAN NOT WRITE what another person says WITHOUT "SPELLING" it to your own personal preconceived notions.. such as did Johnny Cochran at the O.J. trial say " if it does not fit, you MUST ACQUIT" *OR* did he say, " if it does not fit, you MUSTA QUIT!" LOL. is it The WORD OF GOD or is it the WAR-DOVE GAUHD (Guard is pronounced GOD here in Maine in the NEW world in a NEW en-gland in a NEW AKKADIA now spelled ACADIA. I heard my State of Maine and my hometown will be the CAP-IT-ALL of the PLAN-IT .This was for 10 straight days middle day was May 1st 2006. This has everything to do with the NEW WORLD ORDER. In Maine we got postcard signs that say names if towns that are countrys and famous cities and how many miles to them like CHINA, DENMARK, SWEDEN, PURU, MEXICO, EGYPT, NORWAY, POLAND, PARIS, ATHENS, TROY, ROME, NAPLES, and places lije HOPE, FREEDOM, UNITY, etc etc etc. Some of these were named 200 years ago. Good to note tge word STATE also means COUNTRY. thus these UNITED STATES could already be the UNITED COUNTRIES. put that with the sign post the visions of this place being the Capitol of the Planet with the NWO plan that started May 1st 1776. And how my mind has literally taken off in with many different perspectives! Maine is also the Eastern most state in the North East. In the middle of MAsonIC AmericA with its ♂️ North East cornerstone. NORTH represents DARKNESS and EAST symbolizes LIGHT. Where America's day begins. It DAWNS on ME first.. Maine aka ME was one state with Massachusetts aka MA until 1820. ME is literally MAson. the widows don. The orphan.

Since I've been on this truth search I've discovered fascinating things about myself.. my d.o.b. is made of ALL 1-6-9's on SEPTEMber 16th but EVERYTHING adds to about 13 SEVENS. amazing! Sept means SEVEN. 16 is 1+6 = SEVEN. only 169s is 1+6+9 = SEVEN. 9.16 is 9+16 = 25 = 2+5 = SEVEN. 9.16 is 9+1+6 = 16 =1+6 = SEVEN. 16.9 is 19 minus 9 is SEVEN. 9.16 is the 259th day of the year. Thats 2+5+9 = 16 = 1+6 = SEVEN 9.16 has 106 days remaining til the end of the year. Thats 1+0+6 = SEVEN. plus tge year i was born adds to like 4 or more SEVENS. Its amazing that 9.16 is THE most common birthday because there's a lot of ritualistic drunken sex on New Years EVE when I was conceived. THATS the time our entire colander revolves around because around MID NIGHT New Years eve is when the BRIGHTEST STAR SIRIUS is tMOST HIGH. its the hidden light behind the light of the Sun when its most high on June 21st Prince Williams birthday. That makes all the sense too. 6.21 is the MATERIAL LIGHTS MOST HIGH and 12.31 is the SPIRITUAL LIGHTS MOST HIGH. everything I do plays out as part of the BIG PICTURE. the revolution WILL BE TELEVISED..

The "globe" is an armillary sphere and it doesn't really have anything to do with navigation or cartography. It's for astronomical calculations like the azimuth of sunrise or set for a given date.
Every Part of the universe is invisibly linked to the rest through a network of "sympathetic" connections. Whats interesting about that is that here now in the 21st century we find that this idea is correct, only we call it quantum physics and quantum entanglement.
Hermatism as a connectedness between all things...? So not making fun, being totally serious: Basically Jedi? "The Force is what gives a Jedi his power. It's an energy field between all living things.
Colocar as caveiras em camadas sobrepostas vá lá. Na época dava pra fazer. Mas colocar a roda gigante e as torres no canto superior direito foi impressionante. Muito impressionante.
I don't want to just say that figures like Dee haven't played any part in this whatsoever, but the image of a "white bearded old wizard" is a far deeper image that's associated with wisdom and knowledge. I mean it's not particularly surprising that a wizard ("wiz" etymologically directly connected to "wise") would be an image of a stereotypically elderly man. In a sense, it's a bit of a caricature, which again, isn't surprising for something on the level of archetype. It's a timeless symbol
The skulls might be what he thought of the people around him. Skeletons that watch and gaze in zombie like fascination at the mechanics of the world he was trying to uncover. Yet teachings fall on empty skulls that only look, not watch and understand.
First of all - NOT Victorian era. The painting you are talking about doesn't have anything really weird in it. The figure in the middle is a alchemist so the props near him are the props of an alchemist. He is doing what 'advisors' (wizards) often did in the Elizabethan era - performing 'magic'. As for the 'hidden' aspects of the painting - they are not hidden, they are parts he re-painted either because he was told to or he chose to. When work is done for someone else, especially a queen, they get to say what goes into the painting. Too many people over think this stuff.
Minor nitpick. Elizabeth I started her reign in 1558 not 1553. Her predecessor Mary (as in Bloody Mary) ran the show with Philip I from 113 50 her death in 1558
