John Dee Life

John Dee (13 July 1527 – 1608 or 1609) was an Anglo-Welsh mathematician, astronomer, and occult scholar, as well as an advisor to Queen Elizabeth I. He spent a long time on alchemy, divination, and Hermetic philosophy.

He also suggested that England's imperial expansion be turned into a "British Empire," a term he is often described as coining.

Personal life

Dee was married three times and had eight children. In 1565, he married Katherine Constable, his first wife. They had no children, and she died in 1574. In 1575, he married his second wife, whose name is uncertain. She died in 1576, but without a single child.

Jane Fromond, a 23-year-old Jane Fromond (1555-1604), who had her own link with Elizabeth FitzGerald, Countess of Lincoln, until she married Dee in 1578. They had 7 or 8 children, including Arthur Dee (1579–1651), Michael Dee (1694), Rowland Dee, Madinia Dee, Frances Dee, Margaret Dee, Margaret Dee, and, possibly, Theodore Dee (1588–1601).

Dee referred to Thomas Jones, who is expected to be the loose inspiration for Welsh folkloric outlaw Twm Siôn Cati; the pair corresponded, and Jones visited Dee several times.

Dee's life from 1577 to 1601, as well as his almanac), from which the bulk of what we know about his life in that period has been gleaned. Kelley told Dee in 1587 that the angel's desire was to share wives. Theodore Dee, who was born nine months later, may have been fathered by Kelley, not Dee.

Jane died in Manchester from bubonic plague and was buried in the Manchester Cathedral burial grounds in March 1604. Michael, a Prague boy, died on his father's birthday in 1594. Theodore, a native of Tebo, died in Manchester in 1601. Arthur and Rowland's sons survived, as did his daughter Katherine, "his companion to the end." Madinia (sometimes Madima), Frances, and Margaret died in the disease that claimed their mother, but no records exist for their children. (Dee had to write a diary by this time)

Dee wrote to Arthur while he was a student at Westminster School, sharing the common fears of boarding-school parents. Arthur was an apprentice in the majority of his father's alchemical and scientific careers, and he was also his diviner before Kelley appeared. He went on to be a hermetic and alchemist author whose books were published by Elias Ashmole.

Deee is described by John Aubrey as "tall and slender." He wore a gown like an artist's gown, with hanging sleeves and a slit... a long beard as long as milk. "He is a very handsome guy."

The Royals have long adored a barmy guru, from Diana and Fergie to Charles and Camilla

King Charles' refusal to pay a £32,000 bill for an Indian healer was yet another point of shame for the disgraced Duke of York. When he submitted an expense claim for medical care, the King was reportedly 'having a laugh,' including chanting, massages, and holistic therapy. Bills for the male yogi, who lived with Andrew for up to a month at a time, were previously funded from the monarch's personal estate. But to Andrew's dismay, the King has told his brother that he must now pay for such treatment himself! Pourtant, gurus, mediums, and healers aren't the first to know it. In fact, royals have relied on them for guidance since Elizabeth I's reign, when royals looked to Dr. John Dee, the renowned astrologist, alchemist, and scientist, for insights into everything from comets to dream interpretations. Other members of the modern royal family, including King Charles himself, have sought advice and support from clairvoyants, scholars, and spiritual figures, from the notable to the positively famous.

Despite Queens such as Elizabeth I and Victoria, historian A.N. A.N. Elizabeth II was the most popular, according to WILSON

A.N. WILSON: We have had a Queen ruled over us during three of our country's most turbulent times - it's a surprising fact. The date may have been 1558 when Elizabeth I became Queen, but in some respects, the country was still medieval. We had the American colonies, Shakespeare had written his plays, and we were clearly a modern world by the time of her reign.
