The first chapter in this book covers the astromagnetic theory. Basic astrology and the Golden Dawn version of the map ofthe heavens are discussed, as well as a scientific evaluation of the magnetic theory of the earth's aura. The second chapter covers the various solar myths and legends throughout the ages but mainly concentrates on the Egyptian pantheon, which is to a certain extent the mainstay of Golden Dawn archetypes. The third chapter is the full version of the Equinox ceremony which, to the best of our knowledge, represents the first time in print in this form. The fourth chapter gives the commentary on the Equinox ceremony. The fifth chapter is the Consecration of the Vault ceremony, while the sixth chapter is the commentary on it. The seventh chapter is the Equinox ceremony used by Waite's Holy Order of the Golden Dawn. Although it is dated 1910, I suspect it was in use at least as early as 1903, though I will leave this for the scholars to sort out. This final chapter of Waite's ritual is worth studying for, according to Waite, his concept was based on the Golden Dawn rituals. In spite of what many people say about Waite, he had tremendous knowledge-and an ego to match.
