INTRODUCTION
The idea of doing this book originally came from a conversation between Israel
Regardie and myself during 1983 in New Zealand. The decision to publish the Inner
Order rituals of the 6=5 and 7=4 did not come lightly for either of us, but Regardie
and I both thought that these were better out in the open for all to use. Both of our
feelings were adequately summed up in
Regardie's book What You Should Know About the Golden Dawn (Falcon Press), in which he
wrote:
Obligations to personal allegiance, whether tacit or avowed, is the ideal
method of enhancing the personal reputation of those who for many
years have sat resolutely and persistently upon the pastas of the hidden
knowledge. If by any chance the hidden knowledge were removed from
their custody, their power would be gone. For in most cases their
dominion does not consist in the gravitational attraction of spiritual
attainment or even ordinary erudition. Their power is vested solely in
the one fact, that they happen to be in possession of the private
documents for distribution to those to whom they personally wish to
bestow a favour as a mark of their esteem.
Regardie also hated to see the Golden Dawn system abused. He thought that the
publication of the 6=5 and 7=4 Grade Rituals, in their original fcem,
might minimize that abuse by those who would change the rituals at a later date.
It is hoped that publication of these Grade Rituals will free others who wish to
explore the grades above the 5=6 of the Stella Matutina in the Outer. In so doing, I
hope to break the shackles of some temples that claim legitimate descent from the
Golden Dawn and the Stella Matutina. They
use these grades, whether their claims be legitimate or not, as a source of secrecy
to protect what Regardie has called the "hidden knowledge." With these rituals and
the formulation of the Golden Dawn Foundation, which has a legitimate and
chartered temple, we can now bring much additional teaching of the Order out
into the Light.
What is published in this volume is by no means the last of the Golden Dawn
material Papers and manuscripts are currently being prepared for other volumes
which will contain many of the past Order teachings as well as the later ones.
Enclosed with the Order Rituals are a number of Flying Rolls lectures of the old
Golden Dawn (as well as later ones) that I unearthed from the New Zealand Order.
These lectures may shed new light on many of the more obscure aspects of G.D.
teachings. It was Regardie's wish (and my own) that the Golden Dawn be allowed to
spread out and not be restricted. Publication of previously unpublished material is a
start in that direction. I hope that this publication will help those temples struggling for
higher knowledge and put a bomb under other temples which have this material
and have not yet released it due to their own brand of secret elitism.
What is needed in the Golden Dawn today is openness and honesty. That can be
achieved in part through publication, as the impact of Israel Regardie's work
can attest. As Dion Fortune said, "There is no legitimate reason that I have ever
been able to see for keeping things secret. If they have any value, there can be no
justification for withholding them from the
While I do believe in apostolic succession of the grades of the R.R. et A.C., I also
realise that Temple Chiefs sitting smugly on documents to which everyone could
have access, does little more than exalt their own egoes. The publication of these
Grade Rituals is my own personal contribution in bringing these additional
teachings of the R.R. et A.C. out in the open. My regret is that Regardie is not
alive to see this book in print.
There are still members today of the old Bristol Temple in England, who meet
often, according to a former chief of Whare Ra to whom I recently spoke. I
openly ask these members, some of whom have the 6=5 and 7=4 Grades, to help
other temples get started in much the same way as Jack Taylor did for our
Thoth Hermes Temple. Though confined to a wheel chair and over eighty years
of age, he held age as no real excuse, and did all he could to insure that the Golden
Dawn knowledge would not die with him.
Over twenty years ago a well known English Occultist once remarked that
revelation of the rituals renders them diminished in power. Of course, this is utter
nonsense, as any ritual being correctly performed by a competent and
developed aspirant, generates powerful energies each time it
