The Egyptian Rituals
In 1895 while immersed in her studies of Egyptian religion at the British Museum, Florence Farr was contacted by an "Egyptian adept". From the instructions of her contact Farr went on to form a working group drawn from the Adepts of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. The Egyptian Rituals are a series of five initiatory and dedicatory ceremonies to Osiris, Hathor, Thoth, Horus, and Nuit.
