ESOTERIC FONTS

(from Le Morte Darthur, Aubrey Beardsley, 1894)


I created Madimi Enochian and the other fonts presented here because I needed accurate fonts for my books, yet none were available. Current Enochian fonts are all inaccurate, although they are somewhat better than they used to be a few years ago. The characters of rune fonts are often grossly malformed - I've never seen a rune font with which I was completely happy. The esoteric symbol font came to be because I found myself needing the same set of basic symbols over and over, and always had a tedious chore to locate them and gather them together.

Madimi Enochian was used in my books Enochian Magic For Beginners, and New Millennium Magic. The English and German rune fonts also appear in the latter book.

Madimi Enochian and the English and German rune fonts are so designed as to transliterate ordinary English into equivalent Enochian or rune characters. That is to say, if you type an English sentence using the Enochian font, you will get the equivalent Enochian letters in place of the English letters; if you do the same using either the English or German rune font, you will get the equivalent runes in place of the English letters. This is why some of the Enochian characters or rune characters occupy more than one lowercase key - these characters stand for more than a single English letter.

The effect is quite elegant, and also fun. You can type a page of English, and you will see on your screen and be able to print out a page of Enochian that is a transliteration of the English, and that can be deciphered by anybody who knows the English equivalents for the Enochian letters.

This won't work using the Old Norse rune font, because the small number of runes in that rune alphabet does not contain character equivalents for all the English letters. Neither is the symbol font designed for typing words, but only to be used for its individual symbols.

There are actually more Old English runes than modern English letters, and some runes stand for two combined English letters. The extra runes are to be found on the uppercase keys in this font. There are a couple of variants in the German runes on the uppercase keys as well.

Enochian does not have capital letters. The shift key should be avoided when employing the Enochian fonts for transcribing English text into Enochian. Madimi Enochian is actually two complete fonts, a cursive or script font on the lowercase keys, and a formal or print font on the uppercase keys. Either one can be used for transcribing English, but they should not be mixed.

These are all True-type fonts that I created from scratch in CorelDraw 3 and 9 for Windows computers - I don't believe they will work on Apple computers. After downloading and extracting them from the ZIP files, they can be installed in the same manner as any other Windows font, and will show up in Microsoft Word and other word processors.
