Choronzon
Choronzon is a demon or devil that originated in writing with the 16th-century occultists Edward Kelley and John Dee within the latter's occult system of Enochian magic. In the 20th century he became an important element within the mystical system of Thelema, founded by Aleister Crowley, where he is the Dweller in the Abyss,〔Crowley, Aleister (1989). ''(The Confessions of Aleister Crowley )'', ch. 66. Penguin. ISBN 0-14-019189-5〕〔''The Vision and the Voice'', Aethyrs 9, 10 and 11〕 believed to be the last great obstacle between the adept and enlightenment. Thelemites believe that if he is met with proper preparation, then his function is to destroy the ego, which allows the adept to move beyond the Abyss of occult cosmology.
==Spelling variations==
Including Crowley's spelling of the name, ''Choronzon'', there appear to be three alternatives. Meric Casaubon states that the name is ''Coronzon'' (without an 'h') in his ‘True and Faithful Relation…’. However, this is at variance with the spelling that appears in Dr. John Dee's own journals. Laycock's ''Enochian Dictionary'' gives the latter spelling as ''Coronzom'', citing an original manuscript (Cotton XLVI Pt. I, fol. 91a) as the source for the variant.〔Laycock, Donald (1994). ''The Complete Enochian Dictionary'', p. 98. Weiser Books. ISBN 0-87728-817-8〕〔(Online manuscript scan from ''The Magickal Review'' )〕
