Giddy-up! Register for https://www.EnochiaCon.com today...Nov 6-8, 2026.Reacting to Golden Dawn ‘Wizard Duel’ Lore, Announcing a Hermetic Book Club, and Promoting Upcoming Austin EventsThe host begins by realizing an earlier false live start, shares a sunny-day check-in, and announces a forthcoming book club to read one page a day and discuss monthly on Zoom while comparing translations of the Hermetica for spiritual formation. They react to a comedic history video about Aleister Crowley, W.B. Yeats, and the Golden Dawn “wizard duel,” repeatedly correcting what they describe as major inaccuracies about Golden Dawn history, structure, sources, and John Dee/Enochian material, noting the incident ended with police rather than magical combat. The stream then plays and critiques a “cringe” Golden Dawn 101 video by Georgina Rose, disputing claims about Golden Dawn lineage, self-initiation, Thelema, tools, and curriculum, while adding commentary on publishing, scholarship, and esoteric history. The host promotes Dr. M. David Litwa’s Gnosis Academy and Hermetic Bible, mentions upcoming Arcane Research Society events (In Enochia Con and spring workshops) in Austin, and invites viewers to register and participate.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/magick-without-fears-frater-r-c-hermetic-podcast/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Watch the full livestream: https://youtube.com/live/aM9pps7qZH4?feature=shareBig news and fun reflections on our A.R.S. Spring Workshops last week in Austin, Texas. Frater R.C. returns to Canada after 10 days in Austin, Texas, describing the city as lush, vibrant, and friendlier than Vancouver, and announces he has signed a multi-year lease there so his business is now based in Austin. He demonstrates a new two-camera setup, gifts channel memberships, and promotes free/paid offerings including HermeticMysterySchool.com and the Enochian course (enochiangrimoire.com), plus a planned live Enochian operation. He recaps Arcane Research Society production upgrades (multiple 4K cameras, expanded AV team), thanks collaborators like Jason Louv, and outlines upcoming events: the annual spring Austin event renamed “MagiCon” (April, broad “art of magic” focus, aiming to grow into a castle venue), and the biggest “EnochiaCon” yet in Austin in November with expanded in-person workshops (e.g., Terry Burns, Craig Williams, Dr. David Hill, Temple Louv, and his LBRP masterclass), plus Prague in 2027.He contrasts U.S. vs. Canadian costs (especially groceries), discusses major improvement in long-term psoriasis via a strict no-sugar/no-carb diet, weight loss, and reluctance to take immune-suppressing medications, and reflects on how illness affected his social life. He addresses critiques of Liam Christopher’s Golden Dawn-related material as a different system that can confuse students, while not wanting to “trash” him. The stream includes an Austin souvenir (a lapis lazuli heart lamp), a book haul and reviews—highlighting M. David Litwa’s Hermes (including deluxe editions), a JPS Hebrew-English Tanakh, William James’s Varieties of Religious Experience, Frazer’s Golden Bough, Pico’s Oration, a rare Yeats Shadowy Waters manuscript study, and a Vampire: The Masquerade encyclopedia gift—plus brief Yeats readings, roleplaying discussion, and closing plans for future streams and a DruidCraft tarot session.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/magick-without-fears-frater-r-c-hermetic-podcast/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

His stories have appeared in a number of publications, including The Verge, Pando, and CounterPunch. Joseph will be presenting live at EnochiaCon 2026 in Austin, Texas and his new book THE OCCULT TIMOTHY LEARY has just been released from Inner Traditions. Get it today: https://amzn.to/3Pv5buR (Only 19.99) Explore the esoteric knowledge and experiences of the psychedelic pioneer • Reveals Leary’s immersion in the Western occult tradition, his Eight Circuit Model of consciousness, and his theories on post-terrestrial human evolution • Details Leary’s tarot deck by looking at its unique card order, astrological correspondences, and practical uses for divination • Describes Leary’s encounters with figures such as Ram Dass and Robert Anton Wilson as well as revolutionary groups like the Weather Underground and the Black Panthers Timothy Leary, American psychologist and countercultural icon, is well known for his advocacy of psychedelic drugs and controversial experiments on human consciousness. What is less well known is his deep interest in Western esotericism, a dimension that Joseph L. Flatley explores in-depth. Flatley recounts Leary’s early life and career trajectory, highlighting the esoteric influences that informed his occult activities as well as his thoughts on reincarnation and his futuristic views of computers and human evolution. Readers will learn about Leary’s encounters with 20th-century groups and figures like Ram Dass, the Weather Underground, the Black Panthers, and Robert Anton Wilson, all of whom influenced his psychic explorations and the development of his eight-circuit model for understanding altered states of consciousness and the potential for transcendent experiences. Flatley also details the role of the tarot in Leary’s life and philosophy, showing how Leary created his own version of the deck, which is featured in this book. Flatley then reveals the correspondences between Leary’s deck and his eight-circuit model of consciousness and guides readers on how to use this tarot for divination.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/magick-without-fears-frater-r-c-hermetic-podcast/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

...Let's talk aboot it: The Complete Golden Dawn System of Magic and Israel Regardie's many other publications ushered Golden Dawn magic into the modern age and provided a clearer view of the system and its traditions than glimpsed through the Aleister Crowley speciation of it into his religion of Thelema (and Crowley's revised Ordo Templi Orientis and his A.A.) Since Modern Magick has become mainstream through the work of Donald Kraig and too many other authors to count.

Edited lightly. For the full uncensored episode watch here: https://youtube.com/live/KqOYCKXyiOk?feature=shareDr Felix John Taylor has released a book on the GD...let's see what he says about it as I do my first read over of the contents! Get his new book today: here: https://amzn.to/42hVvX6A full-­length narrative history of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, the esoteric society at the center of the nineteenth- and twentieth-century rise of the occult.Occultism has long been associated with the visual and literary arts, the wild and the avant-­garde, and nowhere was this more embodied than in the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. Founded in London in the 1880s by Freemasons, it was the world’s most famous secret society. In this fresh and invigorating narrative history, Felix John Taylor recounts its rise and fall through those for whom the Order represented both an alternative to traditional Victorian religious values and a space for imaginative exploration.Devoted to the study of ceremonial magic, the Order attracted a long list of eminent writers, actors, and visual artists to its ranks, including W. B. Yeats and Aleister Crowley, as well as lesser-­known key figures. It envisioned a "golden age" of spiritual enlightenment, with progressive ideals—­class and gender were no barriers to entry—and teachings from tarot to alchemy and astral projection guided its ten hierarchical "grades."While its temples were formally spaces to practice magic, Taylor finds that the Golden Dawn was at times more an arts club or society of writers. Political schisms and sex scandals ensured that it was short-lived, yet for many members its occult practices came to determine the nature of their work and influence the wider culture over a much longer period.The Golden Dawn, with its influence on Wicca and modern magic, is a vital thread connecting Victorian esotericism to the present day occult revival. This visually arresting, meticulously researched literary history uncovers these connections, while offering a compelling account of the Order and its members.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/magick-without-fears-frater-r-c-hermetic-podcast/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
