Thank you for this. Yes, I spent a long time thinking about the name (and calculating number values!) before settling on this one; yes, the less hierarchical implications of "Fellowship" were much on my mind, and so was the rose without the cross. As for the Greek political group, their choice of a name irritates the bejesus out of me, but what can you do?

I'm glad to hear about your interest in meditation. My sense for many years now is that that's the missing piece in most people's occult practice, especially but not only in the Golden Dawn end of things. Without it, there are things you never get.
