Do what thou Will shall be the whole of the Law.
These rituals are those of the Ancient and Primitive Rite of Memphis. However, here they are incomplete. This book covers, however briefly, the 34th through the 97th degrees. A much better and more complete edition has been published by Bishop
T. Allen Greenfield, "The Compleat Rite Of Memphis", available through Amazon from Luxor Press. Greenfield's edition contains almost all the material herein and expands beyond it, beginning with the complete signs, words, knocks, grips, acclaimations, & insignia, including the Lodge Opening in the 18th Degree, (Knight of the Rose Croix).
This book contains a single page of perhaps relevant material not found in Greenfield's work cited above: a single-page, hand-written Appendix of the 34' Knight of Scaninavia Runic Cypher, the 64' Sage of Mythras Ammanian Alphabet, the 75' Knight Commander of the Lybic Chain, and the 90' Sublime Master of the Great Work. There are no notes or explanations to this page.
The book also contains 22 pages of Masonic clip art pertaining to absolutely nothing with the rest of the book.
Love is the Law, Love under Will.

The Rite of Memphis aggravated members of "conventional" Freemasonry because it claimed not only to be the true source of Masonic wisdom but to be the ONLY legitimate Masonic system!Its rituals were much more esoteric than those commonly encountered in "regular" Freemasonry.Many colorful personalities allied themselves with this system, including Karl Kellner, Theodore Reuss and Aleister Crowley.In England, the Rite was under the direction of John Yarker, while in the United States, Harvey Spencer Lewis, of AMORC fame, also made use of these degrees.This fascinating book is a reprint of John Yarker's manuscript-"The Ancient and Primitive Rite of Memphis in 95-Book Third-Series III Consistory and Grand Council."It includes Yarker's last revision of the 34-96 rituals inclusive, plus the "secret work.

Witch School First Degree: Lessons in the Correllian Tradition Review

Witch School First Degree: Lessons in the Correllian Tradition
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Witch School, First Degree by Rev. Donald Lewis-Highcorrell is the first book in a three-volume series that introduces readers to Correllian tradition Wicca. A fourth volume is dedicated to mastering the art of ritual. The goal of First Degree is to provide enough knowledge that the reader should be able to initiate themselves into the Craft by the end of the book. There is even a ritual provided for the Outer Court initiate, should they choose Self-Wiccaning.
Correllian Nativist Wicca was originally formed in 1879 by a woman of Scots-Cherokee ancestry, Orpheius Caroline. In 1979, after the Council of Elders appointed new leadership, the Correllian tradition was opened to the public. They began creating a series of correspondence courses, which became the lessons found between the covers of Witch School.
Witch School is formatted much like a textbook, with a total of twelve chaptered lessons (one for each month, for a year's worth of tutelage). Each chapter covers a new facet of the religion, from magic to stones and crystals. An exercise is then provided, with an introduction to a different god in each lesson. The chapter then closes on a series of review questions.
The lessons are straightforward and easy to follow. Most of the information is relevant to any tradition of Wicca, not just Correllian. As is common practice, a student becomes an initiate after one year of study. The book is set up perfectly to accomodate this schedule with the monthly lesson style.
For the person who has been reading up on the subject for a while, initially there may not appear to be a great deal of new information in Witch School, First Degree. It is aimed more at someone who is completely unfamiliar with the religion and would need step by step guidance. I'm sure the second and third volumes would be appropriate for those who already have some knowledge of the Craft. However, anyone can benefit from the exercises provided, regardless of mastery degree. The detailed history of the various forms of deity is also a benefit not found in many other books on the subject. Witch School, First Degree, in the least, could make an excellent reference book for any library or a comprehensive refresher course. I'm eager to begin reading Second Degree.
