first of all, thank you for all your work - finding it and starting the practice felt like homecoming.
I wanted to ask you a few questions:
1. I've been following The Way of the Golden Section book for about 2 months now, and I was wondering on how to adapt SOP to the Gnostic Christian pantheon. For the opening, I am using the same one I use before prayer - "Nous, Christos, Pistis Sophia, Amen" - but I am not sure how to approach the invocations, since I was unable to find any connection of, for example, the luminaries, with the elements. Do you have any suggestions on how to approach it? Apologies if you answered this question already.
2. Recently I felt a pull to research more about the Grail. I managed to get my hands on your The Ceremony of the Grail, and I've got some books written by John Matthews (The Lost Book of the Grail, The Grail Tradition, and also the Grail Tarot (which happened to have a Gnostic flavour, and I plan to explore it after I learn the Sacred Geometry Oracle)). Do you have any opinions on the writings of John Matthews, and do you have any recommendations on learning more about (the mysteries of) the Grail?
