Sigillum Dei; Emeth
-
Is there a good explanatory essay on the particulars of the Sigillum Die?
I know there's a rudimentary one, but I was wondering if anyone knew of anything more detailed.

I'm not aware of anything exhaustive. The GD Second Order examination of name derivation is the most sophisticated practical thing I know. Everything else out there seems more concerned with physical manufacturing.

Thanks, Jim.
I think I have that here, somewhere.

Start with Crowley’s Liber Chanokh. It's better written. Then go with the stuff in the back of Regardie's original GD book.

Thanks!

Is there an official scheme for colouring the Sigillum Die; Emeth? I see a supposed Golden Dawn colour scheme, but there are others as well.

A good work solely on the Sigillum Die Aemeth is:
The Magic Seal of John Dee: The Sigillum Dei Aemeth

I believe it isn't intended to be colored - it was made in unpainted wax seals, carving the lines into the wax. I've always taken it as a line drawing.

Okay.
Thanks

If you look here:
And scroll down, under Giordano Bruno there's a section surveying the Sigillum Dei Aemeth as it appears in various manuscripts, pre-Dee and post-Dee.
