Enochian: The Celestial Archive

The 19 Calls

The Angelic Calls — also known as the Keys or *Claves Angelicae* — were received in 1584 at the court of King Stephen Báthory in Kraków. Dictated through Kelley in reverse order (19th first, 1st last), they were understood as verbal keys that open specific regions of the Enochian cosmology. Dee recorded both the Enochian text and English translations. What follows is the text as Dee received it, with word-by-word dictionary references and pronunciation guides in three traditions.

The Nineteenth Call (The Call of the Aethyrs)

The Key of the Thirty Ayres

Reception order: 1
Words: 181
Tablet/Aethyr Association: aethyr

The Call of the 30 Aethyrs. Contains a variable position where the three-letter name of the target Aethyr is substituted. This single template generates 30 distinct invocations — one for each Aethyr from TEX (30th, outermost) to LIL (1st, innermost).

Historical EvidencePrimary records and manuscript witnesses

This was the first Call received. The angel Nalvage described the Calls as 'the Natural Keys to open those, not 49 but 48 (for one is not to be opened) Gates of Understanding.'

Tablet/Aethyr Association

The 19th Call is unique: it contains a variable position where the three-letter name of one of the 30 Aethyrs is substituted. ◆ This single Call template therefore generates 30 distinct invocations — one for each Aethyr, from TEX (the 30th, outermost) to LIL (the 1st, innermost). ◆ Select an Aethyr below to see the Call with that name inserted.

Select Aethyr: [TEX] [RII] [BAG] [ZAA] [DES] [VTI] [DEO] [ZID] [ZIP] [ZAX] [ICH] [LOE] [ZIM] [UTA] [OXO] [LEA] [TAN] [ZEN] [POP] [KHR] [ASP] [LIN] [TOR] [NIA] [UTI] [DES] [ZAA] [BAG] [RII] [LIL]

Note: The 30 Aethyrs are numbered 30 down to 1. TEX is the 30th, LIL is the 1st.

Historical Notes

Historical EvidencePrimary records and manuscript witnesses

The Nineteenth Call was the first to be received in the dictation sequence. It is the longest Call and the only one that functions as a template with a variable component. It was understood as the key to accessing the 30 Aethyrs — the vertical axis of the Enochian cosmos.

Sloane MS 3191; Cotton Appendix XLVI

Historical EvidencePrimary records and manuscript witnesses

Crowley used this Call extensively during his 1909 Algerian workings, producing The Vision and the Voice (Liber 418) — detailed visionary accounts of each Aethyr. These visions became the most influential experiential account of the Aethyr system, though they postdate Dee by 325 years.

Scholarship

Laycock

Strong Scholarly ConsensusSustained agreement across peer scholarship

The 19th Call contains the largest concentration of unique vocabulary and the most complex sentence structures in the entire Enochian corpus. Several grammatical patterns appear only here.

Leitch

Strong Scholarly ConsensusSustained agreement across peer scholarship

The variable position for the Aethyr name is the only parametric element in the entire Call system — no other Call contains a substitutable component.
