Rituals are as old as man and have consistently played a significant part in the religions of all cultures. The nineteenth century
witnessed a revival of some of the ancient
and more formal occult rituals as a reaction
to the growth of modern materialism. Francis King, in The Rites of Modern Occult
Magic, tells the inside story of the Hermetic
Order of the Golden Dawn, an organization
whose activities and teachings were largely

the theoretical bases of the Order’s practices,
the rituals of initiation, the hierarchy—and
the personalities involved in the often fierce
competition between and among various
groups.
The author’s researches into the conflict
between W. B. Yeats and Aleister Crowley
are given in detail, as is the full story of

his quarrel with his occult teacher MacGregor Mathers (also known as S’ Rhioghail Mo Dhream, “Royal is My Race”),
and his subsequent resignation from the
group, on the grounds that it had ceased to
be a true Magical Order. Then there were
the founders: Dr. Woodman (Frater Magna
