The vast majority of the historians of the Elizabethan period, however sophisticated they may be in the study of other aspects of the life of Queen Elizabeth I, put forth a comic book vision of her and those who served her in terms of English Protestants equal liberation of mind and body; Spanish Catholics equal inquisitorial sadism and enslavement.  

One of the few authentic portrayals in the otherwise heavily biased, Emmy Award-winning 1971 BBC production “Elizabeth R,” were these realistic images of the monarch in late middle age.

 English Protestant monarchs in this fantasy are but one step removed from flower children, tip-toeing over fields of religious controversy to embrace diversity of opinion with respect to freedom of conscience, while the Spanish are heresy-hunting,  dark-skinned, hook-nosed personifications of horror.

Lifting the Veil on Spenser’s Fairie Queen and the Identity of the “New Isis”

For good reason the western secret societies in Britain have long idolized Queen Elizabeth I. This trend was prevalent in her lifetime when Edmund Spenser in his self-validating, canonical Fairie Queen epic intimated that she was the “New Isis”:

“It is in the Faerie Queene (Book V) that we meet Isis as a symbol of Justice and equitable queenly rule. Spenser wanted to associate Elizabeth's rule with an ancient Golden Age ruled over by another strong queen: Isis, the Divine Queen of Egypt. Spenser tells us that Isis was ‘a Goddess of great power and soverainty’ and that justice and equity were among her blessings. So too are power, sovereignty, justice, and equity hallmarks of Elizabeth’s reign.” (Cf. “Isis & the Faerie Queene”).

The Horror that is Isis: "I am all that has been and is and shall be; and no mortal has ever lifted my veil."

In Book V of the Fairie Queen the poet emphasizes a positive view of Egypt by invoking the many magnanimous pagan myths surrounding the goddess Isis. In her study of Ancient Egypt and the Fairy Queen, Genavieve Alt writes:

“The Faerie Queene allegory extends to the British crown as well as Spenser’s own life. Queen Elizabeth I, who came to the throne after the death of her half-sister Mary Tudor, was generally seen as a benevolent, powerful and unmarried female ruler—the first of her kind. Elizabeth never married, never produced an heir, and took it upon herself to act as both masculine and feminine ruler.

“In a famous speech made to British troops at Tilbury on August 9, 1588, Elizabeth acknowledged her dichotomous gender roles, saying ‘I know I have the body of a weak, feeble woman; but I have the heart and stomach of a king, and a king of England too.’

The representation of Elizabeth as embodying both masculine and feminine traits is allegorized in Books III and V of the Faerie Queene through (the character of) Britomart. At the very beginning of Britomart’s story in III. ii, Spenser introduces the looking glass given to her father by the wizard Merlin.

Dr. John Dee: Queen Elizabeth I’s “Astrologer royal,” a mathematician and master of “Enochian” magic through his consorting with spirits. The date shown in the illustration is a reference to the day he was born—July 13. By coincidence that’s the date Donald Trump would be shot, 497 years in the future. Dee was obsessed with numerology. He also recorded the latitude (“51 degrees 32 minutes”) on which he was born. With Richard Hakluyt he birthed the British Empire through mystical geographic association. In my book Twilight Language I point out the significance of major movements founded on the 42nd degree of n. latitude in N.Y. in the 19th century. Observe that Dee made the notation 4 R 2. Break down Dee’s year of birth: add 15 + 27. It equals 42. (The numbers, dates and images displayed in this modern drawing are derived from Dee’s notebooks).

“According to Dorothy Stephens, “Queen Elizabeth regularly consulted an astrologer, John Dee, who used a crystal ball.’
