Avowardly objective centre for information on cults etc, which probably includes us. Untertook research for the La Fontane report on alleged Satanic Child Abuse, which exonerated the pagan community and pointed finger at Fundamentalist Christians. Even so its board of governors is dominated by prominent Christians, which is bound to be an obstacle to a truly objective approach. Has links with Professor Eileen Barker, who has written a book on New Religious Movements and whose earlier work 'The making of a Moonie' has an interesting take on the whole question. Phone number (0171 242 0392.) Vicars face child abuse questions (Guardian 13th May 1995) 'Clerics are being ask to disclose any offences they may have against them which is related to children. The move will help ease public concern following a number of reported incidents in recent years by clerics of various denominations' [or cults?] Women and the Golden Dawn - Rebels and Priestesses by Mary Greer (Park Street Press) £25 We received a complimentary copy of this book from the author, along with a thank you note to all members of the society. Some may remember that she spoke at the Thelemic Symposium some years back, during the research phase of the book. Shame this didn't get us a mention in the contact list, although SOL and the Pagan Federation, the later not noted for its GD interests, did. However, it does look a very interesting book, and I will try to give a fuller review next time. Incidentally, the next Thelemic Symposium in on 21 October. Programme details should be available in July/August. If you want to know how it went last time, the Proceedings Volume has just been published by Golden Dawn Publications under the title 'Thelemic Magick XC' at £7.99. The first print run of 100 has just about sold out already, but should have more stocks in soon. Royalties from sales will go to the society. Capal Bann New Book on Egyptian Magick Just out, Passing Through the Veil by Peter Paddon (Zero Degree Correspondence Course for Sacred Hermetic Order of Asar Ra) Has anyone heard of this order, if so would welcome some feedback. Book costs £10. By same author The Book of the Veil exploration of Egyptian Mysteries from Fellowship of Isis perspective. If someone really wants to review these let me know Solstice Falls on 21st June , Wednesday. If anyone wants to meet up at Avebury for simple ritual etc (Judges allowing) please let me know or meet at the Red Lion early evening. Last year it was fun, and dry until about five minutes before sunrise, then it emptied down. New Moon: 29th May Full Moon: 13th June Solstice: 21 st June Curses Fact Sheet (Continued from issue 13) Protection from Bad Dreams. If you feel particularly afflicted in dreams then there is a traditional talisman from the Grimoire of Pope Honorius which I have found useful. Simple take piece of new paper and cut out a circle and inscribe it as follows: In the outer ring inscribe the following words and symbol: + In Hoc Vince Adonay Write your own name in the cente, perhaps in code. Fold twice. To charge the talisman say (as best you can) the following Latin Conjuration Universelle: Ego N[ame] conjuro te N per Deum vivum, per Deum verum, per Deum sanctum et regnantem, qui ex nihilo coelum et terram et mare, et omnia quae in eis sunt, creavit in virtuti sanctissimi sacramenti Eucharistae et nomine Jesu Christi et potentia ejusdem filii Dei omnipotentis, qui pro redemptione nostra crucifixus, mortuus et sepultus fuit, et tertia die resurrexit, nuncque sedens ad dexteram plasmatoris totius orbis, inde venturus est judicare vivos et mortuos: et te maledicte idcirco per judicem tuum tentare ausus appareas mihi juxta circulum pulchra et honesta animae et corporis forma, et adimpleas mandata mea sine fallacia aliqu. Nec restrictione mentali per nomina maxima Dei deorum Domini dominantium Adonay, Tetragrammaton, Jehova, Tetragrammaton, Adonay, Jehova, Otheos, Athanatos, Ischyros, Agla, Pentagrammaton, Saday, Saday, Saday, Jehova, Otheos, Athanatos, a Liciat, Tetragrammaton, Adonay, Ischyros, Athanatos, Saday, Saday, Saday, Cados, Cados, Cados, Eloy, Agla, Agla, Agla, Adonay, Adonay, Adonay. Constringo te pessime et maledicte serpens N ut sine mora et legione et gravamine in hoc loco libita sigma ante circulum meum sine murmure appareas, sine difformitate nec murmuratione iterum. Exorciso te per nomina Dei ineffabilia Gogmagogque a me pronuntiare non debeunt et ternoce mea a lapsa venias adsis N venias adsis N venias adsis N. If you want to purify the paper before charging it the traditional formula of purification is: Asperges me, Adonay, hyssopo, et mundabor; lavibis me, et super nivem dealbabor1 That of consecration is: Accendat in Nobis Adonay ignem sui amoris et flammam aeternae caritatis.2 A more modern version might be: Be pure, for pure will, unasuaged of purpose, and delivered >from lust of result is in everyway perfect. and You are uplifted in my heart, may the kisses of the stars rain hard upon your body.3 respectively. When you have finished making the talisman, sleep with the talisman under your pillow until the problem goes away. If you lose the talisman, that is good. It means it has entered the unconscious world and will act as a semi - permanent protector (Paper lasts one month, wood one year, metal last 10 years, gold or silver a life time.) Further Reading. Dion Fortune, Psychic Self Defence. Written in the 1930s but still a useful survey of problems in this area and as an account of the author’s own struggle against demons, internal and external. Jan Fries, Visual Magick. Has basic information on simple visualisation and talismanic magick techniques. Finally. Remember, it is highly unlikely that you are actually being cursed. But even if someone was skilled enough to curse you, then remedy is cheap and easy and in the final analysis can only be done by you. Remember, 'Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law’ is the greatest remover of curses ever devised. Notes 1. ‘Thou shalt sprinkle me, Adonay, with hyssop and I shall be clean’ from A Crowley, Magick, Chapter 14 ‘Of the Conjurations, with an account of the nature and nurture of the magical link.’Originally from Psalms 51:7. The Psalms have always been .a fruitful source of magick. Modern historians have shown how the Psalms are much older even than their Biblical recension and many go back to the magick of ancient Egypt. 2. ‘Let Adonay kindle in us the Fire of his passion and the flame of eternal love’. 3.
