MONAS HIEROGLYPHICA THEOREM XXII T-shirt
From the ‘Monas Hieroglyphica’ by John Dee, printed by Willem Silvius in Antwerp, 1564.
Monas Hieroglyphica is a mystical and symbolic treatise written by Dee, and published in 1564. It is considered one of Dee’s most enigmatic works. The book consists of a single diagram, the “Monas Hieroglyphica,” accompanied by an explanatory text. The diagram is a complex symbol representing the unity of all creation and the interconnection of various cosmic forces. It combines elements from alchemy, astrology, geometry, and Dee’s own spiritual beliefs.
John Dee was an influential Elizabethan scholar, mathematician, and magician. Born in 1527, Dee’s expertise spanned various fields including astrology, navigation, and alchemy. He served as an advisor to Queen Elizabeth I and was highly respected for his intellect and knowledge. Dee’s fascination with the occult and esoteric arts led him to practice ceremonial magic, earning him a reputation as a magician. He conducted experiments, communicated with angels through scrying, and wrote extensively on spiritual and mystical topics. Dee’s contributions to Renaissance occultism left a lasting impact, and he remains an intriguing figure in the history of magic and intellectual pursuits.
