Daughter of Sunset Updates

Saturday evening saw the initiates of Daughter of Sunset Oasis discussing the finer points of the theory and practice of the Lesser Ritual of the Hexagram. Both banishing and invoking forms of the ritual were discussed and then performed. Thanks to Frater 671 for putting on a great class.

If you or somebody you know would like to attend classes with us please email us for more information.

Daughter of Sunset Oasis began a new season of classes on various topics of Magick and Mysticism yesterday with two related topics.

Fr. Iskandar opened with a closer look at Liber Resh vel Helios sub figura CC. This book includes the briefest of instructions for performing what is most often referred to as “Resh” where the practitioner greets the Sun at its four quarters. Several issues around appropriate signs and methods of visualization were discussed. We closed with the performance of the evening portion of the ritual as a group. Great group participation in the discussion as well as the ritual itself.

After a short break Br. B presented a talk outlining the basics of Raja Yoga and some of the ideas Crowley had on the subject from Eight Lectures on Yoga. Br. B then contrasted this with some of the ideas of Zen meditation. After some instruction on the basics of asana the group settled in for fifteen minutes of actual meditation focused on the breath. A little more discussion of the experience followed.

The attendance was strong and the group dynamic is very solid. The discussion that followed after class at dinner was exceptional. I can’t wait until next month!
