Without guidance, this is usually impossible. Therefore, lowe my biggest thanks to Peter and Laura Yorke of Ra Horakhty Temple, who provided my first exposure to self-initiation techniques in the Golden Dawn. Their years of expe­ rience with the Golden Dawn material yielded a structure of carefully selected ex­ ercises, which their students still use today to bring about a gradual transformation. WIthout such well-prescribed use of the Golden Dawn's techniques, it would have been difficult to make progress in its grade system. The basic structure of the course in this book is built on a foundation of the Golden Dawn's elemental grade system as my teachers passed it on. In particular, it develops further their choice to use the color correspondences of the Four Worlds, a piece of the original Golden Dawn system that very few occultists have recognized as an ini­ tiatory tool.

  • And What They Can Teach Us About Contemporary Financial Expertise
    Klaus Oschema Heaven Can Tell ...Late Medieval Astrologers as Experts – and what they can Teach us about Contemporary Financial Expertise Abstract: In taking action, or rather in making the decision to act, humans are inevi- tably confronted with a fundamental dilemma: actions taken in the present seek to bring about consequences in an immediate or distant future, but that future is, by definition, unknown and unknowable. That even the present is characterized by a high degree of complexity can lead to the establishment of a particular group: experts or expert advisers. Experts are individuals credited with specific knowledge and who are relied upon in order to make informed decisions or solve particular problems. While many authors consider the development of cultures of expertise to be a uniquely modern phenomenon that responds to the increasing complexity of social organisation, this chapter argues that late medieval astrologers can be described as ‘experts’, and that their activities can be analysed fruitfully as being part of an ‘expert culture’. In order to appreciate fully the characteristics and workings of this culture, medievalists have to rely upon insights and findings derived from the Social Sciences. While an interdisciplinary dialogue benefits research on medieval subjects, I argue that the analysis of premodern ‘expert culture’ can (and must) inform reflex- ions on the role of experts in modern societies. Based on drawing a comparison between modern financial experts and late medieval astrologers, I argue that analysis of the latter enables us to better understand our reliance on experts as an act of belief rather than as an outcome of supposedly rational calculation.

  • Thomas Aquinas, Roger Bacon and the Magicians on the Power of Words
    chapter 8 Thomas Aquinas, Roger Bacon and the Magicians on the Power of Words Steven P. Marrone Sometime in 1266 or 1267 Roger Bacon wrote his Opus maius. It was one of three works Bacon composed in those years intended for Pope Clement IV, who had written to him in 1266 inquiring about his reputedly path-breaking investiga- tions into the sciences.1 Bacon’s hope was to win over the pope for his plans to inaugurate a reform of all the fields of higher learning. In Book 4, where Bacon was advancing ideas that together constituted a small treatise on the science of astrology, he took time to lay bare his thoughts on the power of the spoken word: For since the word [verbum] is generated from the natural interior parts [of the human body] and is formed by thought and by careful oversight, and [since] man takes delight in it and it is the most proper instrument of the rational soul, therefore it has the greatest efficacy of all the things that are produced by man, especially when it is brought forth with firm intention, great desire and unflinching confidence.2 By itself, the assertion seems innocuous enough. But in fact what Bacon was doing here required a good deal of courage. For Bacon was taking a stand on what had become a controversial issue by the time of the 1260s. His defense of the power of words was part of an effort to lay down a theory explaining in terms acceptable to the natural philosopher how incantations, of a special 1 On Bacon’s chronology, see A.G.

  • Astral Magic and Adelard of Bath's Liber Prestigiorum
    Astral Magic and Adelard of Bath’s Liber Prestigiorum; or Why Werewolves Change at the Full Moon ______________________________________________________________ Patricia Aakhus1 Abstract. Astral magic, the capturing of celestial spirits or rays in engraved stones at astronomically propitious times, enters the West with Adelard of Bath’s 12th century translation of Thabit ibn Qurra’s treatise on talismanic magic, Liber Prestigiorum. Derived from Greek, Babylonian, Sabian, Egyptian and Neo- Platonic magical theory and practice, astral magic requires profound knowledge of astronomy. Talismans draw down planetary spirits along stellar rays, the vehicles of transmission, following sympathetic correspondences between astronomical and terrestrial phenomena. In the 12th century works Guillaume de Palerne and Le Chevalier au Lion, magic rings and werewolves are tied to astral magic. These works were written for the English court that supported Adelard, and Gervase of Tilbury’s Otia Imperialia where ‘in England we have often seen men change into wolves according to the phases of the moon’ and ‘there is no precious stone which may not be consecrated for the exercise of its extrinsic power with the herb of the same name or with the blood of the bird or animal, combined with spells’. Adelard’s version of Thabit’s text, along with the Latin Picatrix, also derived from Thabit, had the greatest impact on learned magic in the medieval and early modern periods. In the final chapters of the Speculum Astronomiae, Albertus Magnus discusses astronomical texts which he considers abominable.2 At the top of his list—in first place—is Adelard of Bath’s early twelfth century Liber Praestigiorum.3 Attributed to Hermes Trismegistus, it is in fact the 1 Patricia Aakhus sadly died during the editing of these proceedings.

  • Micrologus Nature, Sciences and Medieval Societies
    CONFÉRENCES TRANSCULTURELLES DE L’UNION ACADÉMIQUE INTERNATIONALE - 1 TRANSCULTURAL CONFERENCES OF THE INTERNATIONAL UNION OF ACADEMIES - 1 in collaboration with the INTERNATIONAL CONSORTIUM FOR RESEARCH IN THE HUMANITIES (ERLANGEN ) Micrologus Nature, Sciences and Medieval Societies XXIV · 2016 The Impact of Arabic Sciences in Europ e and Asia FIRENZE SISMEL · EDIZIONI DEL GALLUZZO ABSTRACT Charles Burnett ; On Judging and Doing in Arabic and Latin Texts on Astrology and Divination (pp. 3-11 ) Words for judging and doing are very common in titles of Arabic and Latin texts on astrology. In fact, the usual term for astrology in both languages is «the science of judgements». But is it the astrologer who is judging and doing, or the stars? This arti - cle explores the nuances of the two terms and their cognates. Charles Burnett Warburg Institute charles.burnett @sas.ac.uk Danielle Jacquart; A few introductory words: the mixed flow of Greek and Arabic sources in the Latin medieval world (pp. 13-24 ) The fact that Greek science and philosophy have been, in many fields, the starting- point of Arabic achievements has led some historians to try isolating the “genuine” Greek and the “genuine” Arabic in medieval Latin works. In most cases, the purpose of such a vain endeavour is more ideological than scientific. Unlike their humanist successors during the Renaissance, medieval authors, as well as translators, never took this distinction seriously into account. When Gerard of Cremona translated from Arabic both Greek and Arabic works, he was looking for a wide body of knowledge of an universal value. Hybridization was at work in medieval scholarly background.

  • Dion Fortune and Her Inner Plane Contacts: Intermediaries in the Western Esoteric Tradition
    1 Dion Fortune and her Inner Plane Contacts: Intermediaries in the Western Esoteric Tradition Volume 1 of 2 Submitted by John Selby to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Theology June 2008 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from this thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has been previously submitted and approved for the award of a degree at this or any other University. 2 _________________________ Abstract Whereas occultists of the standing of H. P. Blavatsky, Annie Besant, C. W. Leadbeater, and especially Aleister Crowley have been well served by academic enquiry and by published accounts of their lives and work, Violet Evans, neé Firth (aka ‘Dion Fortune’), has suffered comparative neglect, as has her concept of the ‘Masters’ who inspired and informed her work. These factors, alongside the longevity of her Society of the Inner Light (still flourishing), are the catalysts for my embarking on this thesis. Chapter 1 discusses the method of approach, covers Fortune’s definitions of frequent occult terms, and compares observations of her work by fellow occultists and outside observers. Chapter 2 is a comprehensive review of mainly recent academic research into the role of intermediaries in magic and religion from ancient times, and serves as a background to Fortune’s own esoteric philosophy, showing that she was heir to a tradition with a long history.
