Shedding light onto the Great Table
During our last session we came across an inconsistency. We had previously assumed that the names used in the hierarchical address were to be taken from the Revised Table which was received by Dee and Kelley in April 1587, three years after the conception of the original Great Table. However the two God names which Lon Milo DuQuette mentions in the appendix on page 230 of his book are those of the earlier version (Arbiz and Chalpt instead of Arbiz and Abalpt).
On page 136 of ‘Enochian Vision Magic‘, I found the following quote by Lon:
For the duration of this book I will, for the sake of consistency, try to use the Tabula Recensa as my main model for both the lettering and arrangement of the Watchtowers of the Great Table. I say “try to use” because for nearly the entire Enochian period the Angels referenced the original Great Table when explaining the angelic hierarchies and spelling the names of individual angels. It will be necessary from time to time to refer to the original, unreformed Great Table, especially when we start discussing the Kerubs, whose names might be dramatically affected by the reformed table’s new arrangement.
It is worth mentioning that although the elemental tablets on the original Great Table are arranged in a different order than on the Tabula Recensa (clockwise from the top left: Air, Earth, Water, Fire), the subangles within the tablets are nevertheless ordered in the same way as the elemental tables and subangles of the revised Great Table, which is the same as they appear on the elemental pentagram (Air, Water, Fire, Earth). From this we can easily determine the Three Great Secret Names of God, the Six Planetary Seniors, the Elemental King and the Two God Names for summoning and commanding the angels.
I’ve corrected the sample protocol which can be found here, and have also added the Kerubs to the hierarchical address, as they were previously missing.

Enochian working 4 – Rxao – 29 Sept 2010 – ‘An Unexpected Guest’
Wednesday 29th September 2010
After a break of two weeks, we once again gathered in the basement temple of M & R.
Remaining within the Earth subangle of the Earth tablet, we chose to call RXAO. After settling into the temple space, we performed the usual preparatory ceremonies – 3x Qabbalistic Cross, LBRP, 3x QC, Middle Pillar.
The chanting (Holy Table Invocation, 49 Angels Invocation, Round Table of Navalge, Fifth Call and Hierarchical Address) seemed to go more smoothly than they had in the past as there seemed to be greater agreement as to the pronounciations, intonation etc.
After everyone had settled into position, the scrying began, with M scrying and J operating.
What is your name?“Balthasar.”
What is your nature?“I am a king.”
What is your colour?“Purple, and bright gold.”
What is your sound?“I sound like I am a king.”
How do you feel to the human touch?“Humans don’t touch me.”
What do you taste like?[He’s laughing. Pointing to a feast, a very big feast. With pomegranates.]
Can you tell us what you taste like?[RXAO just turned up. Balthasar smells – he doesn’t smell – can smell but don’t know what. Like frankincense, but not quite.]
How do I express you through emotions?[RXAO sitting behind. Should carry on. Has a very big … showing me kingly type star / sceptre – authority. RXAO nods.]
In what forms and images are you most revealed?[As if Balthasar is his puppet. Shows image of feast again. Lots of fruit, very sumptuous. Very ripe and beautiful.]
Is there anything else that we should know about you?“He’s not quiet.”
We ended the scrying session by ringing the bell seven times. After that we debriefed and had our usual informal gathering with wine, smoke, and biscuits.

Protocol for the invocation of lesser angels (example ‘OPNA’)
During our previous invocations, we adapted the procedure described in Lon Milo DuQuettes ‘Enochian Vision Magic’. I have outlined the protocol for this ceremony, with reference to the target angel whom we addressed last time, OPNA, who resides in the Earth subangle of the Earth tablet.
Most of the protocol will remain the same when addressing other angels – merely the call may need to be changed (a list of all 48 calls can be found here), as well as the hierarchical address, depending on the location of the target angel (see Enochian Vision Magic, pp. 179-180).
For those interested in how the names used in the preliminaries are written in their original language (LBRP, Middle Pillar), I have added them accordingly in Hebrew, compiled from various sources.(1) (2) (3) (4)
The complete protocol can be found here. For it to be correctly displayed, an Enochian font is required. Both the OpenType font, or the TrueType font should work. If for any reason there are difficulties with either of the two, I suggest to simply try the other one. The font can be installed after downloading by right-clicking on it, and then selecting ‘Install’ – at least for Windows-based systems. Those with other operating systems will have to consult their documentation.
If you find any errors, please let me know so I can correct them and upload an updated version.

Enochian working 3 – Opna – 8 Sept 2010
Wednesday 8th September
In the temple in the sky.
We decided to call OPNA from the Earth of Earth subangle of the Revised Great Table, following on from our previous work in calling Axir from the same location. Once again, we meet in the temple in the sky, some 15 floors above the earth. The hellhound guards the portal, although he seems a little more friendly this week – perhaps I’m simply less shocked at his hellhound-ness (having never really worked with a hellhound as guard before).
After last weeks session we had decided to go back to our respective hearths and try to assess what sort of images or visions had occurred to those not operating or scrying directly. We brought our notes on these to this meeting and reviewed them, with a general sense of agreement, albeit rough in outline, as to the nature of the images – a pearl seemed to be central to this, or mother-of-pearl perhaps.
A is scrying. I am operating. A cauldron of tea is brewed and we chat as we drink this, then clear and open the space using our usual practice of temple opening. The scryer has brought their own ring and lamen and we’re using my table, sigillums and mirror.
What is your name? OpnaWhat is your nature? Falling through things, levitation, balance, gaps between buildings … coiling dragon.
What is your colour? Red and green.
What is you sound (musical note)? High.
How do you feel to the human touch? Scales, like a solid.
What do you taste like? (please repeat)…barely there, absence of taste, the tongue dry (they are amused about this).
How do you smell? Vapours, like from the sulphur, the bubbling pools in Iceland.
How do I express you through emotions? Single mindedness, a like an idea free falling through the consciousness to its conclusion, breaking through others in the air, heavier than that.
In what form of images and ideas are you most revealed? Long dragon, like a Chinese dragon, the front will move, takes a while for the rest of the body to catch up as it moves through these buildings like flats, large rectangular buildings, it twirls around them and up and has a kind of grin and eyes and it is the … it has a humour or a … it has a law of its own.
When are you most manifest in my daily life? When you need something, when you accept and you innovate to get this solidity to you to get to a place of maybe balance maybe stable, another platform.
Can you tell us something about Draco? (very slowly…) Is another larger creature of of a different order a different class more feathered creature claws more red and gold like a bird.
Can you tell us anything we need to know, anything for next time we meet? … (scryer: nothing coming, seems to just be spiraling in a circle, circling, it’s as if it’s attention is not quite there).
Operator thanks and closes.
Debrief and review.
Next operation in 3 weeks: Morrigan to scry, Jen to operate; location – basement temple space.

or: What Happened on a Cold Day in a Draughty Flat High Up in the Clouds
I hope that maybe the one or other has some use for the complete coloured Great Table as Revised by Raphael (Tabula Recensa). If not, it was still a great exercise.
The Revised Great Table in colour (1587) If anyone needs a larger version, let me know – the full resolution is 1500 x 1620.
