Hermeticism The Golden Dawn Rosy Cross symbol. This glyph was worn by on the breast by Golden Dawn members during ceremonies. The design is based on Rosicrucian legend, Kabbalah , and on the colour symbolism taught by S. L. MacGregor Mathers . The twenty-two petals of the Rose, each coloured differently, correspond to the twenty-two letters of the Hebrew alphabet - "three mothers, seven doubles and twelve simple" - and the twenty-two Paths of the Tree of Life. From these petals a geometrical figure representing any named spiritual force can be obtained; the name is first transliterated into Hebrew letters and then a figure is drawn which would connect up all the letters of that name if it were drawn upon the Rose. In the middle of the petals of the Rose is a Calvary Cross, symbolic of death and spiritual rebirth. The Rose itself lies upon the four-armed Cross of Nature, symbolic of the physical elements which the adept has to transmute into pure gold in the athanor of his heart. The pentagrams show the symbols of four physical elements plus the fifth or quintessence; the hexagram below the rose shows the moon and five planets, centred on the sun from Francis King, 1975

31. Dion Fortune An incomplete but interesting article on Dion Fortune. http://www.kheper.net/topics/Hermeticism/Fortune.html

Dion Fortune a.k.a. Violet Mary Firth a.k.a. Mrs. Penry Evans An orphan of Yorkshire descent, she was brought up in a house- hold of Christian Scientists. To earn a living she took a post in an institution~he does not particularise its nature nor that of her own duties-where the principal incapacitated her (or so she believed) by a combination of hypnotism and ill-wishing. She recounts the incident under suitable disguise in the Preface to Psychic Selfr Defrnce (i 930); I take it that the adept who rescued her and whom she refers to as Z was J. W. Brodie-Innes. She probably met him in the Theosophical circles she frequented. Having studied psychology and psych~analysis at London University, she worked as a lay-psychotherapist-that is, one with- out a medical degree-at a clinic. In 1919 she was initiated into the A .~. O.~. Lodge, a London daughter-Lodge led by Mrs. Maiya Tranchell-Hayes, of Brodie- Innes's Amen Ra in Edinburgh. Kenneth Grant identifies Vivian le

Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers Mathers dressed in the costume of the High Priest of Isis image from Francis King, 1975, Magic - the Western Tradition , Art and Imagination series, Thames and Hudson, London this page is still under construction.... S.L. "MacGregor" Mathers was one of the most important, and certainly the most-misunderstood, occult figures of the late nineteenth century. He was a major figure in the founding of the Order of the Golden Dawn , wrote its rituals and eventually became its head. In an interesting parallel to Mme Blavatsky , who he met prior to the founding of the Golden Dawn, he claimed to have derived many of the teachings from a group of superhuman adepts, the Secret Chiefs. He was an eccentric and brilliant scholar, unemployed and unemployable, the ideal person to be head of a magical order. His magical names were Deo Duce Comite Ferro ("With God as My Leader and the Sword as My Companion") and ' S Rioghail Mo Dhream (Gaelic for "Royal is My Race"), which reflect his authoritarian, military and Jacobite inclinations. At the same time he was also a vegetarian, probably a vegan , and an anti-vivisectonist. He campaigned for women's rights. He married

33. Austin Osman Spare A biographical sketch. http://www.kheper.net/topics/Hermeticism/Spare.html

Home Hermeticism main page Topics Encyclopaedia ... What's New Austin Osman Spare (1886-1956) The Encyclopeadia of the Unexplained , Routledge and Kegan Paul, p.226 Often considered the grandfather of Chaos Magick, Austin Spare was born on December 30th 1886 at Snowhill, London, the son of a City of London policeman. When he left school, at the age of thirteen, he served an apprenticeship in a stained-glass factory, and in the evenings attended the Lambeth School of Art, South London. This enabled him to obtain a scholarship to the Royal College of Art, Kensington, where he began to study in earnest.. Even at this young age, he was astonishingly talented. One of his drawings was surreptitiously sent by his father to the Royal Academy, where it was accepted and exhibited. His pictures were imemdiately popular in the Art world. The painter John Singer Sargent hailed Spare a genius, and G. F. Watts declared that Spare had 'already done enough to justify his fame'. Spare did not get on with his mother, and at an early age he formed a close friendship with a strange old lady who claimed to be a witch. Spare knew her simply as Mrs Paterson, and he described her as his second mother or, more appositely, as his witch-mother. She claimed to be descended from a line of Salem witches. She taught Spare not only how to visualize and reify dream imagery, but also how to evoke spirits and elementals to visible appearance. Although Spare could, and often did, produce conventional works of art of great genuis, he preferred to used his artistic talents to represent occult and spirit beings. His work has been compared with that of Aubrey Beardsley (a member of the

Putnam's Sons, New York, 1975, pp.231-3 Roman Catholic Church , she brought up her son and daughter as members of it. They were not well off and Waite was educated first at small private schools in North London and then, from the age of thirteen, at St. Charles's College. When he left school to become a clerk he wrote verse in his spare time; the death of his sister soon afterwards attracted him into psychical research. At twenty-one he began to read regularly in the Library of the British Museum, studying many branches of esotericism. When almost thirty he married Ada Lakeman ('Lucasta') and they had one daughter; some time after 'Lucasta's' death in 1924 he married Mary Broadbent Schofield ( Una Salus ). He spent all his life in or near London, being connected with various publishing houses. He edited a small magazine, The Unknown World , but became more and more engrossed in his particular kind of authorship and the research it entailed.

You can help Thelemapedia by expanding it Hermeticism is The study and practice of occult philosophy and magick , of a type associated with writings attributed to the god Hermes Trismegistus , "Thrice-Greatest Hermes," a syncretistic deity who combines aspects of the Greek god Hermes and the Egyptian god Thoth . Hermeticism is also associated with alchemy . These beliefs were influential in European occult lore, especially from the Renaissance forward, when they were revived by people like Giordano Bruno and Marsilio Ficino .

This image is from the Hermetic Fellowship 's Golden Dawn resources page , and as explained on the Hermetic Golden Dawn site has been reproduced without acknowledgement a number of times. The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn was a complex body of teaching and ritual magical practice brought together Kabbalistic cosmology , the Rosicrucian initiation system, ritual magic, Egyptology astrology , tarot, and various other such magical and occult streams. Under the twin genuises of its founders S. L. "MacGregor" Mathers (1854-1918) and William Wynn Westcott (1848- 1925), these were woven into a single all-embracing metaphysical and practical system. Mathers and Wescott did such a good job that the influence of the Golden Dawn is still felt today; indeed, together with Blavatsky 's Theosophy , the Golden Dawn was one of the parents of the contemporary Western esotericism The Golden Dawn organisation itself never had many members, although those that it did were often important figures, for example the Irish poet W. B. Yeats

39. The Roots Of Consciousness: History, Hermeticism hermeticism. Thus the writers of the Corpus Hermetica attributed their philosophyto a legendary figure named Hermes Trismegistus (thricegreat). http://www.williamjames.com/History/HERMETIC.htm

Hermeticism Thus the writers of the Corpus Hermetica attributed their philosophy to a legendary figure named Hermes Trismegistus (thrice-great). Hermes Trigmegistus This figure is associated with the god Thoth or Hermes who was alleged to have given the Egyptians their knowledge of the arts and sciences. The main dictum of the hermetic tradition as found in the Emerald Tablet in essence states "As Above, So Below" meaning that humanity will find within itself the nature of the entire universe. Professor Wayne Shumaker, a modern historian of the occult sciences, uses an analogy to place Hermeticism within the vast history of human understanding: Again and again we are told the whole world is alive. "If therefore the world is always a living animal was, and is, and will be nothing in the world is mortal. Since every single part, such as it is, is always living and is in a world which is always one and is always a living animal, there is no place in the world for death" (Ascl. 29). When in our own day, C. S. Lewis' fictive character Ransom first traveled through space, the word "space," the reader is told, was a "a blasphemous libel for this empyrean ocean of radiance in which they swam. He could not call it "dead"; he felt life pouring toward him from it every minute." The Hermetic universe was similarly vitalistic, permeated with life. So is the universe of the low savage, the Naturmensch; but long before the second and third centuries of our era the primitive belief had been rationalized.
