Bag om Monas Hieroglyphica

Monas Hieroglyphica is a book written by Dr. John Dee, a famous mathematician, philosopher, and astrologer of the 16th century. The book is a complex and esoteric treatise on alchemy, astrology, and symbolism. It is divided into 12 chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of alchemy and its relationship to the cosmos. The central focus of the book is the symbol of the Monas Hieroglyphica, which Dee claims to be the key to unlocking the mysteries of the universe. The symbol is a complex combination of geometric shapes and astrological symbols, and Dee believed that it contained within it the secrets of transmutation, the creation of the philosopher's stone, and the attainment of spiritual enlightenment. Monas Hieroglyphica is a challenging and enigmatic work that has fascinated scholars and occultists for centuries. It is considered one of the most important texts in the history of alchemy and is essential reading for anyone interested in the esoteric traditions of the Western world.This very rare and ancient manuscript is Dr. John Dee's Monas Hieroglyphica, written in Latin. Dr. Dee was known for ripe scholarship, for deep knowledge in chemistry and for rare skill in mathematics and astronomy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
