The "yet" doesn't appear to follow (regardless of the role of GD in publication of anthology). Wonder if this sentence resulted from a big editing typo (such as an omission of part of the original sentence/paragraph)?<br /><br />Incidentally, according to some accounts, Gonne was a member of GD at some point. For example, there exists a book titled "Women of the Golden Dawn: Rebels and Priestesses: Maud Gonne, Moina Bergson Mathers, Annie Horniman, Florence Farr".Sue Howardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02042694919673009972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5887440039323868659.post-64374715124725878102017-10-25T18:23:11.807-07:002017-10-25T18:23:11.807-07:00I wonder if it was a reference to Falcon Press and...I wonder if it was a reference to Falcon Press and their relationship with Regardie...Lvxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15690032819701097630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5887440039323868659.post-37223215470276833532017-10-25T14:01:09.763-07:002017-10-25T14:01:09.763-07:00Fixed!

There seems a healthy portion of cabala and magical subtext in his writings so maybe it has something to do with that?<br /><br />BTW, it's "Coincidance: A Head Test" not a Heat Test. "A Head Test" could suggest Golden Dawn influence if looked atin a certain way.Oz Fritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06061222169144560970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5887440039323868659.post-49982362102634463262017-10-25T11:55:44.789-07:002017-10-25T11:55:44.789-07:00I do not know.I do not know.Eric Wagnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04312033917401203598noreply@blogger.com
