Ritual starts at 7pm - please arrive between 6.30pm & 7pm. **ONLY INITIATED MEMBERS MAY ATTEND**. Click here for details on how to become a member **[https://esotericbookshop.org/hermetic-order-of-the-red-dragon/](https://esotericbookshop.org/hermetic-order-of-the-red-dragon/)** The whole point of **HORD** is to become ***enlightened*** and to do this by rending apart the ***Veil of Illusion*** leaving the way clear to achieving the ***Knowledge and Conversation of your Holy Guardian Angel***. This is done by 'Solve et Coagula' in Alchemical terms. You undergo a series of challenges that essentially help you pull yourself apart, realise which parts of yourself you have created as an ***'illusion'***, and change that ‘illusion’ so that you can reassemble yourself in a better and more perfect way. ***HORD doesn’t do it. You do it***. But you have the rest of the group to support and back you up as we all go through the process together. Rending the Veil is a ‘profound’ experience. We don’t let go of our illusions easily. The whole process consists of finding your ‘illusions’ and seeing them for what they are – unreal. There is a simple test to check if you’ve found an illusion. **Emotion**. ***If something makes you laugh, cry, get pissed off – congratulations; you’ve found one***. Enlightened Buddhists, when they find another illusion, roll around laughing for hours and hours and hours. In fact, people like the ***Dalai Lama*** spend most of the day rolling around in laughter – the more enlightened you are – the more illusions you find. … the unenlightened just get pissed off. The Hermetic Order of the Red Dragon (HORD) is a ceremonial magic group that evolved from the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn (GD). For more information: **[https://esotericbookshop.org/hermetic-order-of-the-red-dragon/](https://esotericbookshop.org/hermetic-order-of-the-red-dragon/)** To join, one needs attend at least 3 Invocation/Evocation workshops (Playing with Angels etc) & be sponsored by an existing member.

In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected.

This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator. Join us on Sunday for an hour of uninterrupted wordmaking! • What we'll do Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at noon on Sundays. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: 12:00 - quick intros. 12:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour. 1:10 - chat / take off / keep writing. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 1-1:30ish. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you! • What to bring Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block noise or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Electrical outlets are limited, so charge your devices before whenever possible. See you at The Café on Sunday!

**In March we will be making protest signs form carboard, paper, thick markers, and more! All supplies are provided, seats are limited! Come As you are, when you can; hope to see you there!**
