Ritual Magick-Initiation of the Star and Snake

Here is the ritual basis underlying the threefold structure of an initiatic Order comprising the Golden Dawn, Rosy Cross and Silver Star. The rituals and methods are supplemented by hundreds of graphic illustrations and diagrams. The grade system is worked from Malkuth to Kether, following the paths of the Serpent of Wisdom. The Order of the Golden Dawn comprises the first four degrees. The Golden Dawn thesis concerns the equilibration of the four elements of the natural soul. The Order of the Rosy Cross comprises the fifth, sixth and seventh degrees. The work of the Rose and Cross is to unite the equilibrated soul to her opposite, the antithesis or Holy Guardian Angel. The Order of the Silver Star comprises the eighth, ninth and tenth degrees, summed up as the spiritual fruit or synthesis of the soul's union with her Holy Guardian Angel.
