THE SYMBOLIC REPRESENTATION OF THE UNIVERSE
III
The Shew-stone, a crystal which Dee alleged to have been brought to him by angels,
was then placed upon this table, and the principal result of the ceremonial skrying of
Sir Edward Kelly is the obtaining of the following diagrams, Plates III.-VIII.
He symbolized the Four-Dimensional Universe in two dimensions as a square
surrounded by 30 concentric circles (the 30 AEthyrs or Aires) whose radii increase in a
geometrical proportion.
The sides of the square are the four great watch-towers (Plates IV.-VII.) which are
attributed to the elements. There is also a “black cross” (or “central tablet” according
to the arrangement shewn—compare the black cross bordering the tablets in Plate III.
with Plate VIII.).6
