Like runes, the Theban Oracle is a unique and singular writing system or, more appropriately, an alphabet-codex that is based on the ancient magical writings devised by the 14th-century magus, Honorius of Thebes. It was later utilised as an oracle by such masters of the occult sciences as Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa, Petrus De Apono, Dr. John Dee and other mediaeval and renaissance contemporaries of high magick.
The Theban code-writing system appeared to go dormant until 1801, when Englishman Francis Barrett brought it and other esoteric aspects of magick back into vogue. It was later re-discovered by Gerald Gardner in the 1930s, when it caught on in select covens and metaphysical circles.
Now Greg Jenkins reveals the secrets of this magical alphabet and oracle system to provide wisdom and guidance for today. This book is designed for anyone with an interest in divination as well as those interested in ancient writings and mediaeval metaphysics, and is sure to deliver on its promise to illuminate your life. Prepare yourself to discover the hidden mysteries of the ancients and the magick within you.
