The Fraternity of the Inner Light was a magical society and Western Mystery School.
History
In 1922, Dion Fortune requested for the Fraternity of the Inner Light to be formally recognised as affiliated with the Alpha et Omega, which request was accepted and this brought new members to the Alpha et Omega.[1] This accreditation did not last long as Fortune was soon after expelled from the Order.[2]
Teachings
Fortune gave her followers preliminary training by means of correspondence courses, on successfull completion of which aspirants were initiated into the so called Lesser Mysteries, then onto Greater Mysteries.[3] These lesser mysteries were roughly equivalent the Outer Order of the Golden Dawn, and the greater mysteries were roughly equivalent to the old Inner Order of the Rosae Rubae et Aureae Crucis ("Ruby Rose and Golden Cross", or the RR et AC).[3]
