Even in the Dee diaries themselves, the functions of Enochian magic are only
described in general terms. If any of these people do not come out with a
precise list of which angel does what, it is because no such list exists
(although some have attempted to map Dee's general instructions to specific
areas of the Enochian watchtowers, e.g.:
http://www.angelfire.com/ab6/imuhtuk/gdmans/rith.htm ). The challenge in
Enochian magic is to explore for oneself what it does and what it is capable
of.

Is it? It is no more lame than the Pentagram Ritual of the Golden Dawn,
which culminates in the magician contemplating the four archangels.

Not entirely true. Crowley does mention both the Holy Table and the Sigillum
Dei Aemeth, albeit in a cursory manner. Whilst there is no mention of them
in the Golden Dawn before its break-up in 1903, Mathers did deal with them
in the AO - see "Golden Dawn Enochian Magic" by Pat Zalewski. As for what
Shueler does with them I can't say.
