Membership: A full initiate member of the Order is any person in the degree of Neophyte or above in our Collegium. It is easy to obtain Associate memberhip but full initiate membership takes hard work and dedication involving intense spiritual aspiration, continuous study, long practice and the keeping of a diary record.
It is not possible to ‘transfer’ a grade or degree obtained through membership of another group or organisation. We do not hold lodges or public meetings. Initiation in any real sense does not take place through ceremonies with officers after the manner of neo-spiritualist organisations. Our guide in all matters of initiation is included here. We expect anyone that has a serious interest in Order membership to be well informed regarding our aims and ideals. Preferably they will have read and studied some of our most recent works:
Thunder Perfect Gnosis; The Way of Knowledge in the Reign of Antichrist; Thirty-two paths of Wisdom, Nu Hermetica—Initiation and Metaphysical Reality
See our books page for these and other titles.
There are three stages to obtaining full membership: Associate, Student, Practitioner. Aspirants are expected to manage their own contributions to the Order. This may be done through regular or one-off donations, as according to their means.
