Discover the wisdom of the renowned Elizabethan magus Dr. John Dee and let it guide you through the mysteries of your own life’s journey.
The John Dee Oracle draws from the visionary work of Dr. John Dee, the renowned philosopher, astrologer, and magus who stood at the crossroads of science and magic during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. This oracle, created by John Matthews and brought to life through the exquisite artwork of Wil Kinghan, offers seekers a chance to walk in the footsteps of one of history’s most enigmatic figures, delving into the wisdom Dee pursued throughout his lifetime.
Twenty-eight cards are divided into four sacred towers—health, love, work, and intention—each governed by an archangel who oversees that domain (Uriel, Raphael, Michael, Gabriel), guiding you through life’s challenges with wisdom and insight. Included is a 16" × 23" folded diagram featuring the four watchtowers for oracle spreads.
This fully updated reissued edition includes six of Dee’s original Enochian Calls, translated by John Matthews, a new card back design, and an added Gloriana card, which honors Dee’s great patroness, Queen Elizabeth I.

Before Aleister Crowley, before Arthur Edward Waite and Pamela Colman Smith, before the Golden Dawn, before Papus, Éliphas Lévi, and Etteilla, the first author to describe an occult version of the Tarot was Louis-Raphaël-Lucrèce de Fayolle, comte de Mellet, writing in Antoine Court de Gébelin’s, 1781, eighth volume of his monumental encyclopedia, Monde primitif.
The comte de Mellet associated the Tarot’s trumps with the Classical Ages of Man: the Age of Gold, the Age of Silver, and the Age of Iron. He correlated the Trumps with the letters in the Hebrew alphabet, he described the minor suits in detail, and he provided the earliest discussion of a divination technique for the Tarot.
