These are the original teaching of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn from 1987-1900.
The Golden Dawn flourished in Great Britain and France beginning in 1887. Its structure and rites appear to have come from the German order, Orden des Gold-und Rosenkreuz. In the Golden Dawn one studied Qabalah, astrology, tarot divination, geomancy, scrying, astral travel, Ancient Egyptian religion, Theurgy, Freemasonry, Alchemy, Enochian magic, Christian mysticism, etc. It flourished until the London Adepts rebelled against their leader. This act of betrayal destroyed the Order, fragments of which carried on under other names. It is the opinion of the current editor that this rebellion destroyed the Golden Dawn for all time. Although other orders practiced its system, they were not the Golden Dawn, and more modern attempts to revive the Golden Dawn are simply not that Order; too much time has passed. This edition features illustrations of all officers' robes, brand new temple diagrams, and illustrations of all temple implements.
