"[Oltin shafaq ordeni] ordeni Birinchi Jahon urushi paytida jiddiy azob chekdi va Mathersning o'zi Parijda epidemiya paytida grippdan vafot etdi. Men uning tashkiloti bilan aloqada bo'lganimda, uni asosan bevalar va kulrang soqolli qadimgi odamlar boshqargan, Va u sehrli faoliyatning juda istiqbolli sohasi emas edi, lekin men u bilan tanishishdan oldin amaliy okkultizmning katta tajribasiga ega edim va shu paytgacha hech uchrashmagan daraja va mehribonlik kuchini darhol angladim va zarracha ham shubha qilmadim. ammo ekspozitsiyasi etarli emasligiga qaramay, men chinakam an'ana izidan yurganman ".

1922 yil sentyabr oyida Fortune do'stiga tashrif buyurish uchun Glastonberiga qaytib keldi Charlz Loveday. Faqatgina "E. P." nomi bilan tanilgan noma'lum ayol bilan bir qatorda, bu juftlik ko'tarilgan magistrlar bilan ruhiy aloqaga kirishgan deb da'vo qilib, trans-vositachilik harakatlarini amalga oshirdi; Keyinchalik Fortune bularni aniqladi Suqrot, Tomas Erskin va vafot etgan Devid Karsteyds ismli yosh harbiy ofitser Ypres jangi.[54] Fortune va Loveday o'zlarining aloqa usullarini "ilhomlantiruvchi vositachilik" deb ta'rifladilar, chunki bu jarayonda magistrlar vositaning ong osti ongi orqali aloqa qilishdi; ular buni "avtomatik vositachilik" bilan taqqosladilar, chunki ular o'zlarining tanasidan butunlay ajralib ketishini anglatadi.[55]

Bir necha kishi uning taklifini qabul qildi, aksincha boshqalar Stafford-Allen rahbariyatini qabul qilishdi.[62] Ayni paytda, Fortunening ota-onasi ko'chib ketishdi bog 'shahri ning Letvort, Xertfordshir 1922 yilda,[63] va bu erda Fortune magistrlar bilan qo'shimcha aloqalar deb hisoblagan narsani 1923-1925 yillarda trans vositachiligi orqali amalga oshirdi.[64]

1924 yil 20-avgustda Fortune, Loveday va boshqalar o'zlarini rasmiy okkultlar guruhi sifatida tan oldilar.[65] Fortune o'zini "Adeptus" deb tayinladi, beshta akolit ham qo'shildi.[65] Otasidan bir qator mulklarni meros qilib olgan Loveday - ularning ayrimlarini guruh sotib olishlarini moliyalashtirish uchun sotgan.[66] O'sha yili, ular Queensborough terrasasida uy sotib olishdi Baysuoter, Markaziy London ma'bad va bosh idora sifatida foydalanish, ba'zi xonalarni ijarachilarga o'z faoliyatini moliyalashtirish uchun ijaraga berish.[67] Eng yuqori qavatlar yashash joyi sifatida ishlatilgan bo'lsa, o'rta qavatda ibodatxona maydoni bo'lgan, pastki qavatlar esa ofis va shaxsiy kutubxonaga ega bo'lgan.[68] Tez orada guruh o'sdi; 1925 yilda to'rtta, 1926 yilda oltita va 1927 yilda o'nta tashabbuskorni tan oldi.[69] 1926 yil noyabrda ushbu tashabbuskorlar rivojlanishi mumkin bo'lgan ikkinchi daraja tashkil etildi.[69] 1924 yilda guruh etagida eski bog'ni ham qo'lga kiritdi Glastonberi Tor, u erda kulbani va oxir-oqibat verandani va qator tog 'uylarini barpo etish.[70] Da Whitsun 1926, Fortune va uning guruhining boshqa bir qator a'zolari Glastonberi Torda bo'lganlarida, ular ruhiy tajribani boshdan kechirganlarida xursandchilik ular orasida. Keyinchalik ular bu tajriba Elemental Qirolliklarning xabarchisi natijasi ekanligiga ishonishdi va bu ularning rivojlanib borayotgan e'tiqodlariga katta ta'sir ko'rsatdi.[71]

Fortunening faoliyati, shu jumladan yangi guruhga rahbarligi va u yozgan bir qator maqolalar Occult Review - Alpha et Omega etakchisiga tashvish tug'dirdi Moina Mathers.[72] Fortune o'zining tashkiloti Mathers's Alpha et Omega-ni oziqlantiruvchi guruh sifatida xizmat qilishi mumkinligini aytgandan so'ng, Mathers uni Fortune-da noto'g'ri belgilar mavjudligini talab qilib, uni buyurtmadan chiqarib yubordi. aura.[73] Keyinchalik Fortune, u Mathers tomonidan ruhiy hujumga uchraganini, u paytida u ham haqiqiy, ham efir mushuklariga duch kelgani va ularga hujum qilganini da'vo qildi.[74]

Theosophical Society va Inner Light Jamiyati: 1927–30

Keyinchalik u Ascended Masters ko'rsatmasi ostida harakat qilayotganini da'vo qilib,[75] Baxt va Loveday qo'shildi Theosophical Society xristian mistik uyi Daisy M. Grove tomonidan boshqarilgan.[76] Tez orada Fortune uning prezidenti bo'ldi,[77] va uning rahbarligi ostida guruhning a'zolari kengayib, uning o'quvchilari soni oshdi Tranzaksiyalar ham o'sdi.[78] Ushbu davr mobaynida u Tsefofik harakat ichida nasroniylik nuqtai nazariga ehtiyoj borligini oldindan ta'kidlab, o'zining turli maqolalarida "Ustoz Iso" ning markaziyligi va ahamiyatini ta'kidladi.[79] U boshqa bir falsafiy guruhni tanqid qildi Liberal-katolik cherkovi tomonidan tashkil etilgan J. I. Vedvud va Charlz Vebster Leadbeater, bu usta Iso bilan bog'liq emasligini va buning o'rniga u bilan bandligini da'vo qilgan Usta Maytar. Cherkovning taniqli arboblaridan biri, yepiskop Piggott uni unga yolg'on da'volar aytishda ayblagan Occult Review.[80]

Tsefofik harakatning boshqa sohalari bilan ushbu tortishuvlar o'rtasida u oktyabr oyida Tsefofik Jamiyatdan iste'foga chiqdi.[81] Uning Xristian Mystic Lodge Jamiyatga aloqasini tark etdi va o'zini Ichki Nur Jamiyati deb o'zgartirdi.[82] Ushbu Jamiyat tarkibida "Iso Usta Gildiyasi" deb nomlangan guruh tashkil etilgan bo'lib, u doimiy ravishda o'tkazib turardi cherkov xizmatlari yakshanba kunlari ularning Queensborough Terrace bazasida 1928 yildan 1939 yilgacha; 1936 yilda bu guruh o'zini Graal cherkovi deb o'zgartirdi.[83] Fortune tantanali sehrli faoliyat uchun o'z-o'zini tarbiyalashga qodir bo'lmagan ko'plab izlovchilarni Gildiyaga yo'naltirdi, uning a'zolari Jamiyatning bir katta a'zosi tomonidan "o'spirinlar" deb nomlanishgan.[84]

Fortune Theosophical Society-ga qo'shildi (logotip tasvirlangan), lekin ular Isoning ko'tarilgan usta sifatida ahamiyatini pasaytirganiga ishonib, ulardan ajralib ketishdi.

Qachon Jiddu Krishnamurti Teosofiyadan voz kechib, Falsafiy harakatga muammo tug'dirgan Fortune "Blavatskiyga qaytish" fraktsiyasini qo'llab-quvvatladi va Leadbeater-ga bosqinchi hujumchisi sifatida ayblab, hujum qildi. qora sehr.[85] Keyin u o'zini o'zi jalb qildi Bomanji Vadia va uning Theosophists birlashgan uyi, bu orqali u Himoloy Masters bilan bog'langanligini da'vo qildi. Shunga qaramay, u Himoloy adeptlariga ehtiyotkorlik bilan munosabatda bo'lib, ularni "yovuz emas" deb hisoblasa-da, ularni "o'zga sayyoralik va rahmdil" va "mening irqimga dushman" deb o'ylardi.[86] Britaniyada hind diniy e'tiqodlarini targ'ib qilish kontseptsiyasidan norozi bo'lib, u guruhni tark etdi.[87] Keyinchalik, u Wadia unga ruhiy hujum qila boshlaganini da'vo qildi.[88]

Fortune va uning guruhi "Tashqi sud" ishiga e'tibor qaratdilar, bu esa a'zolikni kuchaytirish uchun reklama bilan shug'ullanishni talab qildi.[99] Ular Baysuoter binolarida muntazam ma'ruzalar o'tkazdilar, Fortunening o'zi esa u erda 1928 yilning ko'p qismida haftasiga ikki marta ma'ruza qildi.[100] Ular Chalice Orchard deb atagan Glastonbury mulklarida ular yozda ochiq bo'lgan mehmon uyi va ijtimoiy markaz tashkil qildilar va u erda ma'ruzalar ham o'qildi.[101] 1927 yil oktyabrda ular jurnalni chiqarishni boshladilar, Ichki yorug'lik, dastlabki bosma nusxasi ikki haftada 500 dona sotildi.[102] Jurnal ko'plab o'quvchilarga ega bo'lib, ko'plab obunachilari Britaniyadan tashqarida joylashgan.[103] Guruh ichida ular uch darajali tizimni ishlab chiqdilar, bu orqali guruh, uning ta'limoti va marosimlari to'g'risida yaxshiroq bilim va tushunchaga ega bo'lgandan so'ng, tashabbuskor rivojlanishi mumkin edi.[104] Ushbu darajalar bo'yicha taraqqiyot juda tez bo'lishi mumkin, faqat bitta talab - bu keyingi darajaga kirishdan oldin kamida uch oy davomida bir darajada qolish.[105] Ushbu uchta darajadagi mashg'ulotlar amaliyotchiga "Buyuk sirlar" ga ko'tarilishga imkon beradigan "Kichik sirlar" deb nomlangan.[69] Ular jalb qilgan a'zolik asosan ayollardan iborat bo'lib, ushbu davrda 21 ta ayoldan atigi 5 ta erkak a'zo bo'lgan.[106] Erkak yoki ayol bo'lishidan qat'i nazar, barcha a'zolar dastlab "aka" deb nomlangan, garchi bu tizim keyinchalik "Server birodar" atamasiga yo'l qo'ygan bo'lsa ham.[107] 1928 yil Midwinter-da ular o'zlarining a'zoliklariga taqdim etishi mumkin bo'lgan "Kichik sirlar" bilan shug'ullanadigan guruhning Ichki nurning birodarligini - Fortune, Evans va Loveday-ning asosiy zobitlari sifatida tashkil qildilar.[108]

1930 yilgi tenglama kunida Fortune «kichik sirlar» va hozirda uch darajali tizim to'g'ri yo'lga qo'yilganligi sababli - u jamoat ishlaridan yuz o'girishni va shaxsiy ma'naviy rivojlanishiga e'tibor qaratishni xohlaganligini e'lon qildi.[109] 1931 yilgi tenglama kunida Fortune birodarlik etakchisi lavozimidan ketdi va Loveday uning o'rniga Loja Magusi etib tayinlandi.[110] 1930-yillarda Fortune ta'kidlaganidek, vositachilikdan voz kechib, marosimga o'tdi, shu bilan birga boshqa birodarlik a'zolari magistrlarning xabarlarini yo'naltirish uchun vositachilikni qabul qilishdi.[111] 1931 yil oxirida Fortune Chalice Bogchardda doimiy baza yoki Sanctuary qurish g'oyasini ilgari sura boshladi va iqtisodiy to'siqlarga qaramay Katta depressiya etarli mablag 'yig'ishga muvaffaq bo'ldi.[112] Guruh o'z ma'ruzalariga tashrif buyuradiganlar, sirtqi kurslarga obuna bo'lganlar va shaxsiy kutubxonalaridan foydalangan holda o'sishni boshladilar; aksincha, ularning yakshanba kunlari xizmatlari unchalik mashhur emas edi, chunki ertalabdan kechgacha harakat hech qanday samara bermadi.[113] Birodarlikka qo'shilgan muhim shaxslardan biri bu edi Kristin Kempbell Tomson, kim boylik bo'lgan adabiy agent 1926 yildan beri.[114] Keyinchalik Fortune Tomsonga yomon munosabatda bo'lgan eridan ajralishda yordam berdi,[115] shundan so'ng u 1937 yilda boshqa birodarlik a'zosi, polkovnik C. R. F. Seymur bilan yaqinlashdi.[116] Garchi Seymur birodarlikning katta a'zosiga aylangan bo'lsa-da, u bilan Fortune o'rtasidagi munosabatlar keskinlashdi,[117] Ikkinchi Jahon urushi paytida u Londonni tark etdi va joylashdi "Liverpul", Fortune's Bayswater ibodatxonasi bilan aloqasini tugatdi.[118]

1933 yilga kelib, Fortunening turmushidagi ziddiyatlar uni buzib tashladi.[119] Evansning boshqa ayollar bilan nikohdan tashqari aloqalari borligi haqida mish-mishlar tarqaldi,[120] Fortune birodarlikning ayol a'zolariga ishonganida, u uni sevgani uchun emas, balki sehrli sabablarga ko'ra unga uylangan.[121] Evans oxir-oqibat boshqa ayolga uylanish uchun ajrashishni so'radi; Baxt dahshatga tushdi, lekin bunga qarshi chiqmadi.[122] Fortune konvertatsiya qilingan "Belfry" ni ijaraga olishni boshladi Presviterian G'arbiy Halkin ko'chasidagi cherkov, u erda u o'z uyiga joylashdi.[123] Bu erda, so'nggi 30-yillarda, u bir qator marosimlarni o'tkazdi, ular orasida Isis marosimi va Pan marosimi.[124] Uning ishining boshqa va boshqa jihatlari shundan dalolat beradiki, o'n yillikning ikkinchi yarmida Fortune Richardson "tobora butparastlik yo'nalishi" deb ta'riflagan tarzda harakat qildi.[125]

Fortune ko'plab maqolalarni nashr etdi Ichki yorug'lik jurnali, ularning bir nechtasi yig'ilib, kitoblarda nashr etilgan.[126] 1930 yilda birinchi shunday to'plam nashr etildi To'plamlardagi sirli meditatsiyalar, unda Fortune o'zining nasroniy majburiyatlarini ta'kidlagan.[126] 1931 yilda uning bir qatori Ichki yorug'lik haqida maqolalar Ma'naviyat kabi paydo bo'ldi Sehrgarlik ilm-fan nurida spiritizm. Ushbu kitobda Fortune spiritizm haqida eslatmalar bildirdi. U oddiy Spiritualist vositalar va "ko'tarilgan magistrlar" bilan aloqa o'rnatgan o'zi kabi "kosmik vositalar" o'rtasidagi farqni ajratdi, shuningdek, o'liklarning ruhlari bilan sababsiz aloqada bo'lmaslik kerak, degan fikrni aytdi, bu fikr yashirin muhit o'rtasida tortishuvlarni keltirib chiqardi.[127] 1934 yilda u o'zining bir qatorini yig'di Ichki yorug'lik kabi Glastonberidagi maqolalar Yurak avaloni,[70] uzoqroqda Ichki yorug'lik sifatida yig'ilgan maqolalar Kundalik hayotda amaliy okkultizm, umumiy o'quvchiga mo'ljallangan kitob.[128]Fortunening bir qator maqolalari Occult Review kitobni ishlab chiqarish uchun ham to'plangan Aql-idrok.[129]

To'rt yil ichida Fortune shuningdek, bir qator maqolalarini nashr etdi Ichki yorug'lik bu Hermetic Kabalahni muhokama qildi. Keyin ushbu maqolalar kitob sifatida yig'ildi Sirli Qabala, bu uning ezoterik karerasida muhim voqea sifatida keng qabul qilinadi.[130] Fortunening aksariyat asarlarini "qozonda qaynab turgan beadab jurnalistik" deb atash bilan birga, yozuvchi Frensis X. King xarakterli Sirli Qabala "shubhasiz G'arb an'analarining klassikasi" sifatida.[131] Bu ish Qabalichga yozishmalarning "Oltin shafaq" tizimiga asoslangan nazariy munozarani tashkil etdi Hayot daraxti uni "Alpha et Omega" guruhiga a'zoligi orqali olgan.[130] Biroq, bu uning shaxsiy tajribalari va vahiylariga asoslangan edi; meditatsiya paytida u turli xillarni ziyorat qilganiga ishongan Sefirot Qabalik daraxtidan.[132]

1935 yilda u o'zining ikkinchi yashirin romanini nashr etdi, Qanotli buqa- bu yana ko'rib chiqildi The Times Literary Review- va 1936 yilda uning uchinchi, Echki-oyoq Xudosi.[95] 1938 yilda Fortune to'rtinchi yashirin romanini yozdi, Dengiz ruhoniysi, oxir-oqibat rad etilganidan keyin birodarlik orqali o'zini o'zi nashr etdi Uilyams va Norgeyt, oldingi ikkitasini nashr etgan.[133] Uning so'nggi romani, Oy sehrlari, aftidan Ikkinchi Jahon urushi boshlanishidan oldin tugatilmagan holda qoldirilgan; keyinchalik bir protez uni tugatdi va buni Blavatskiyning tanasiz ruhini yo'naltirish orqali amalga oshirdi deb da'vo qildi va u vafotidan keyin nashr etildi.[134]

Ushbu davrda boylik bir qator taniqli okkultistlar bilan yozishib turdi. Ulardan biri edi Isroil Regardi, kimning kitobi Hayot daraxti Fortune tomonidan u o'qigan "sehr bo'yicha eng yaxshi kitob" deb tan olingan.[135] Keyinchalik Regardie uni tanqidlarida o'z asarlarini noto'g'ri ko'rsatganligi uchun uni tanqid qildi; u o'zining asarlari magistrlarga bo'lgan e'tiqodini kuchaytirgan deb da'vo qilgan edi, garchi Regardi u bunday shaxslarning mavjudligiga shubha bilan qarashini ta'kidlagan bo'lsa.[136] Baxt ham yozgan Olga Fröbe-Kapteyn, asos solgan gollandiyalik ezoterik Eranos Shveytsariyada.[137] U shuningdek, keyinchalik ezoterik muhit orasida ta'sir kuchi ortib borayotgan Jungian psixologiyasiga bo'lgan qiziqishini yangiladi,[137] va uning o'qishi ta'sir ko'rsatdi Fridrix Nitsshe "s Fojianing tug'ilishi.[138]

Keyinchalik hayot: 1939–46

Ning tarqalishi Ikkinchi jahon urushi 1939 yil sentyabrda birodarlikning ba'zi a'zolari qurolli kuchlarga qo'shilib, guruhning ko'plab ishlariga chek qo'ydilar.[139] 1939 yil oktyabrdan 1942 yil oktyabrgacha Fortune birodarlik a'zolarini tinchlik yo'lida yo'naltirish maqsadida har yakshanba kuni guruh meditatsiyalarini uyushtirdi.[140][141] 1940 yil fevralda u ingliz qirg'og'ida patrullik qilayotgan farishtalar kuchlarini tasavvur qilib, bu bilan bu kuchlarni haqiqatga aylantirishga yordam beryapman deb o'ylardi.[142] U birodarlik a'zolarini a ni takrorlashga chaqirdi mantrani har safar nemis Luftwaffe Britaniyani bombardimon qila boshladi, u orqali "Ichki samolyotlar" dan "Ko'rinmas yordamchilarni" chaqirib, zarar ko'rgan odamlarga yordam berishga umid qildi.[143] Birodarlikning Londondagi bosh qarorgohi paytida shikastlangan Blits, garchi tomni ta'mirlash ishlari olib borilgan bo'lsa va guruh bir haftadan so'ng yana binoga ko'chib o'tishga muvaffaq bo'lgan.[144] 1940 yil avgust oyida guruh nashr etishni to'xtatishi kerak edi Ichki yorug'lik Britaniyada qog'oz tanqisligi natijasida.[145]

Glastonberidagi Avliyo Ioann cherkovi cherkovidagi Fortune qabri

Keyin Qo'shma Shtatlar ziddiyatga kirishdi 1941 yil dekabrida Fortune urush boshlanganiga ishora qilib, urushdan keyingi davr uchun rejalar tuzishni boshladi. Kova yoshi.[146] 1942 yil bahorida birodarlik Gildiyaning yakshanba xizmatlarini taklif qildi,[147] va 1943 yil mart oyida Fortune a'zo bo'lishni istaganlar uchun yangi o'quv kursini e'lon qildi.[148] Urushdan keyingi davrdagi rejalari doirasida Fortune Evropaning barcha okkultistlarini birlashtirish uchun o'z bilimlarini birlashtirish g'oyasini ilgari surishni boshladi.[149] U shuningdek, yashirin guruhlarni Spiritualistlar harakati bilan birlashtirish imkoniyatlarini muhokama qila boshladi, ilgari bo'lgani kabi Spiritualist vositalarga nisbatan maqbulroq bo'lgan maqolalar yozdi va uchrashdi. Charlz Richard Kammell, muharriri Engil- jurnali Ruhiy tadqiqotlar kolleji - keyin kim u haqida maqbul maqola e'lon qildi.[150] Hech bo'lmaganda 1942 yilga kelib Fortune taniqli okkultist va tantanali sehrgar bilan yozishib turdi Aleister Krouli, o'zlarining yashirin falsafalari o'rtasidagi ko'p farqlarga qaramay, uni "haqiqiy usta" deb maqtashdi.[151] Keyinchalik u uning uyiga tashrif buyurdi Xastings, Krouli yordamchisi bilan Kennet Grant juftlik yaxshi munosabatda bo'lganligini ta'kidladi.[152]

1940 yil avgustda Fortune trans-vositachilikning keyingi loyihasini boshladi, bu safar u Alfa va Omega ustozi Kurtis-Uebb (hozirgi nomi Maiya Tranchall-Xeys deb o'zgartirildi) bilan, Hermetikaga yordam bergan deb ishongan ustalar bilan bog'lanish umidida. "Oltin shafaq" ordeni.[153] Shunday qilib, ular "Akvaryumiya davri shemeshi" deb nomlanuvchi mavjudotdan xabar yuborayotganiga ishonishdi.[154] Ushbu xabarlar 1941 yil apreldan 1942 yil fevralgacha qabul qilingan va birgalikda "Arturiya formulasi" nomi bilan mashhur bo'lgan; ular urushdan keyingi birodarlikning "Buyuk sir" ishlarining aksariyatini asos qilib olishdi.[155] Ushbu yo'naltirilgan meditatsiyalarda paydo bo'lgan da'volar Artur afsonalari bizdan o'tgan irqiy xotiralar sifatida Atlantis, ularning orolini vayron qilgan kataklizmadan keyin Atlantika ko'chmanchilari tomonidan Britaniyaga olib kelingan.[156] Shuningdek, o'qitishning uch tomonlama tizimi ilgari surilgan: Artur va uning Davra suhbati, bu Merlin va Faery Woman va bu Ginever va Sevgi kuchlari.[156]

1945 yil oxirida Fortune kasal bo'lib qoldi va o'sha yili birodarlikka rejalashtirilgan manzilini berolmadi qish fasli.[157]U vafot etdi Midlseks kasalxonasi ning leykemiya 1946 yil yanvar oyida, 55 yoshida.[158] Uning jasadi Glastonberiga ko'chirildi, u erda vokalist Muxtor L. S. Lyuis tomonidan kuzatilgan dafn marosimida dafn qilindi. Avliyo Ioann cherkovi.[159] Ko'p o'tmay Loveday vafot etganida, unga yaqin dafn qilindi.[157]U pulining katta qismini o'zining Jamiyatiga vasiyat qildi.[160] Fortunening hayoti davomida birodarlik a'zolarining ba'zilari tashkilotning a bo'lishiga nisbatan tashvish bildirishgan shaxsga sig'inish uning atrofida aylanib yurishgan va shuning uchun uning o'limidan keyin ular uning tarjimai holiga qiziqishni rag'batlantirmagan.[161] Jamiyat a'zolari uning vorisi uning kundaliklari, yozishmalari va fotosuratlarining aksariyatini yo'q qilgan deb da'vo qilishmoqda.[162] Biroq, uning qator kitoblari vafotidan keyin nashr etilishi kerak edi Kosmik doktrin1949 yilda paydo bo'lgan va uning romani Oy sehrlari, 1956 yilda nashr etilgan.[163]

Romanlar

"Agar Dion o'zining ulkan kuchlari va katta iste'dodlarini toza va sodda yozishga bag'ishlaganida, u pravoslav me'yorlari bo'yicha buyuk yozuvchi bo'lishi mumkin edi; yoki birinchi divizionda yozuvchi bo'lmasa, hech bo'lmaganda ikkinchi darajaga ko'tarilish uchun da'vogar. Xuddi shunday, uning so'nggi ikki romanida, Dengiz ruhoniysi va Oy sehrlari, u janr ichida buyuklikka erishdi. Bu shunchaki sehrlar haqida yozilgan eng yaxshi romanlar. Darhaqiqat, atrofga qarasak, musobaqa - bu sehrgarlik to'g'risida yozilgan yagona roman ".

- Fortunening tarjimai holi Alan Richardson.[125]

Fortune hayoti davomida etti romanni yakunladi.[125] To'rt kishi yashirin va xayol mavzuli: Jinni sevuvchi, Qanotli buqa, Echki-oyoq Xudosiva Dengiz ruhoniysi. Adabiyotshunos olim Syuzan Jonson Graf ularni asarlari bilan bir qatorda tasniflaydi H. Rider Xaggard, Algernon Blekvud, Charlz Uilyams va Artur Machen.[164] Qolgan uchtasi "V. M. Stil" taxallusi bilan nashr etilgan romantik triller edi: Yaralangan bilaklar, Odam ovchilariva Ismoilning seviklisi.[165] Triller yozish Fortune o'zining sehrli ishi bilan bog'liq bo'lmagan bir nechta tadbirlardan biri edi va u ommaga oshkor qilmagan narsa edi.[125] Naytning ishonishicha, ushbu uchta roman "u yozishni yozish uchun yozishni juda yaxshi ko'rgan bo'lishi kerak" degan fikrni tasdiqlaydi.[166] Sakkizinchi roman, Oy sehrlari, tugallanmagan qoldirilgan, ammo uning himoyachisi tomonidan tugatilgan va o'limidan keyin nashr etilgan.

Fortune o'zining sirli romanlarini o'zining birodarlik faoliyatining muhim qismi deb bildi, hatto ongli ongi yashirin ta'limotni rad etsa ham, o'quvchilarni ong osti bilan gaplashib, okkultizm sohalariga boshladi.[167] Shunday qilib, u ularni o'z ta'limotlarini kengroq auditoriyaga tarqatish vositasi sifatida qabul qildi.[168] Ularning har biri Kabaliy hayot daraxtidagi Sefiradan biriga tegishli edi: Qanotli buqa bilan bog'liq edi Tifaret, Echki-oyoq Xudosi bilan Malkut va Dengiz ruhoniysi bilan Yod.[169]

Fortunening birinchi romani edi Jinni sevuvchi, bu Veronika Maynvaring haqida hikoya qiladi, u o'zining yashirin o'rta kuchlaridan o'z maqsadlari uchun foydalanishga intilgan, jirkanch sehrgar Jastin Lukasning kotibi bo'lgan yosh bokira ayol. Garchi u unga oshiq bo'lsa ham, u oxir-oqibat nasroniylikka sadoqati orqali uning tuzoqlaridan qutuladi.[170] Uning keyingi ishi, Qanotli buqa, Ursula Brangvinni vijdonsiz yashirin guruhga aloqadorligi tufayli zarar ko'rgan, ammo keyinchalik u turmushga chiqqan Ted Murchison bilan uchrashgan.[171] Belgilar Qanotli buqa Fortune hayotidagi haqiqiy odamlarga asoslangan; Murchison, masalan, eriga asoslangan va u Brangvinni o'ziga o'xshatgan.[172] Ugo Astlining xarakteri Aleister Kroulining "zo'rg'a pardali xayoliy portreti" sifatida talqin qilingan.[173] Richardson buni sezdi Qanotli buqa "ko'p jihatdan uning kitoblarining eng yomoni" edi.[125] Olim Endryu Radford romanda "pravoslav jinsiy rollarga asoslangan ijtimoiy mas'uliyatli okkultizmni targ'ib qilishda g'ayrat" ni aks ettirishni va okkultizmning Krouli va uning faoliyati bilan ma'nosiz kosmopolit elita deb bilgan narsalar bilan tobora ko'proq bog'liq bo'lishidan tashvishlanishini namoyish qilishni taklif qildi. .[173]

Echki-oyoq Xudosi qadimgi yunon xudosini izlash uchun ezoterik kitob sotuvchisi bilan birlashadigan badavlat beva ayol Xyu Patson atrofida aylanadi. Pan. They achieve this with the aid of a poverty-stricken artist, Mona Wilton, who becomes close to Patson as the novel progresses.[174] Richardson described The Goat-Foot God as "a masterpiece ... the finest occult novel ever written".[175] Dengiz ruhoniysi is about Wilfred Maxwell, a man living with his mother and sister who learns to commune with the Moon after an Astma hujum. He meets with Le Fay Morgan, a spiritual adept, and together they enter an obsessive (on Wilfred's part) but platonic relationship while establishing a temple to the sea gods.[176]

Fortune's novels all follow the same basic theme: a heroine — a priestess and initiatrix who is magically experienced and assertive — who meets a man and saves him from himself.[177] In her later novels this entails the duos reconstructing or revitalising a ritual space and working magical rituals to channel cosmic forces and bring them into balance.[178]

"As a writer, Fortune's gifts are generally more practical than philosophical. Above all she was a deft synthesizer of ideas, and her continued influence derives largely from her ability to bring difficult esoteric concepts into a lucid and readily accessible prose."

– Historian Claire Fanger.[178]

In her discussion of Fortune's work, Sonja Sadovsky stated that the "unique element" of Fortune's fiction was "the recurring plotline of esoteric romance told from the priestess's viewpoint", suggesting that her female characters provided a template from which female readers could build upon in their own spiritual practice.[179] Sadovsky further suggested that there were two types of priestess who appeared in Fortune's novels, the "Earth Mother" and the "Moon Mistress".[180] According to Sadovsky, the "Earth Mother" was represented by the character of Mona WIlkins in The Goat-Foot God and that of Molly Coke in Dengiz ruhoniysi. She suggested that these characters derived their power from the masculine/feminine polarity and the creative power of sex, and that they also required a male priest in order to initiate them into their spiritual mysteries and to reach their full potential.[181] The second type of priestess, the "Moon Mistress", appeared as Vivien/Lilith le Fay Morgan in Dengiz ruhoniysi and then becomes more dominant in Moon Magic. According to Sadovsky, this is a celibate figure who concentrates her creative powers on training priestesses and dealing with occult matters.[182]

Belief and teachings

Religion and race

Fortune identified her beliefs as being part of what she termed "the Western Mystery Tradition".[183] She adhered to a form of esoteric Christianity,[59] and has been described both as a Christian Qabalist,[184] and as "a devout mystical Christian", albeit "a very unorthodox one".[185] She expressed the opinion that "in any school of Western mysticism the author and finisher of our faith must be Christ Jesus, the Great Initiator of the West",[186] and treated "the Master Jesus" as her personal spiritual guide.[185] She believed that the teachings passed down from the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn served the purpose of recovering "sacred mysteries" or gnosis that had been overlooked by mainstream Christianity.[187] Accordingly, she had no allegiance to any established Christian churches and was often critical of mainstream clergy.[185] Moreover, she rejected a number of traditional Christian doctrines, such as that surrounding Osmon va Jahannam.[186]

There is no evidence that Fortune considered herself to be a "Pagan".[188] However, by the late 1930s, Fortune had developed some interest in the religion of ancient Egypt, but treated it as a preparation for the higher truth of Christianity.[189] In the 1930s her attitude began to change as she became more favourable to pre-Christian religion, likely under the influence of her husband, Seymour, and D. H. Lourens "s Kamalak, of which she was a fan.[190] By The Winged Bull, she was declaring that pre-Christian gods were just as valid as facets of the divine as the Christian God,[191] and around this time she began to adopt an increasingly critical attitude to Christianity, stating that it had been greatly degraded since its origins and distorted by "those two crusty old bachelors", Pavlus havoriy va Gipponing avgustinasi.[191] In her next novel, The Goat-Foot God, Fortune had fully embraced the idea of a modern Paganism reviving the belief systems of pre-Christian Europe, referring to this as "Vitamin P" and declaring that it was needed to heal the modern world.[192] Around this time she began promoting the claim that "All the gods are one god, and all the goddesses are one goddess".[192] However, during the Second World War her writings became more pronouncedly Christian once again.[193]

Fortune believed in the existence of an underlying commonality between the teachings of Western esoteric orders and Asian religious traditions.[194] Nevertheless, she believed that particular spiritual traditions were allotted to specific racial groups,[186] stating that "the Great White Lodge gives to each race the religion suited to its needs".[195] Yozish The Occult Review, Fortune stated: "Do not let it be forgotten that our traditions are racial. What that great initiate Rudolf Shtayner did for the German-speaking races someone must do for those who use a Latin-root language and the Anglo-Saxon tongue."[196]She did not agree with allowing spiritual and magical techniques to transmit between different cultures, believing that to do so caused damage; she for instance cautioned against allowing Western esoteric teachings to be practiced in India because "the Hindu dies readily from shock".[197] Equally she strongly opposed the adoption of Asian religious techniques into Western esotericism,[197] distancing herself from occultists who did so.[198] In her words, she must "recommend to the white races the traditional Western system, which is admirably adapted to their psychic constitution".[198] She nevertheless perceived value in Westerners studying Asian disciplines like Yoga on a theoretical level, so long as they eschewed any attempt to put these teachings into practice.[199]The religious studies scholar Gordan Djurdjevic highlighted that 21st century readers would likely deem there to be "a strong cultural essentialism and even racial prejudice in her writings", but that ideas regarding the close relationship between "culture, race, and religion" were "a part of everyday discourse" in Britain during her lifetime.[200]

Sehr

Fortune was a ceremonial magician.[201] The magical principles on which her Fraternity was based were adopted from the late nineteenth century Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, with other influences coming from Theosophy and Christian Science.[202] The magical ceremonies performed by Fortune's Fraternity were placed into two categories: initiations, in which the candidate was introduced to magical forces, and evocation, in which these forces were manipulated for a given purpose.[203]

The Fraternity's rituals at their Bayswater temple were carried out under a dim light, with Fortune claiming that bright light disperses etheric forces.[203] An altar was placed in the centre of a room, with the colours of the altar-cloth and the symbols on the altar varying according to the ceremony being performed. A light was placed on the altar while incense, usually tutatqi, yoqib yuborilgan.[203] The senior officers sat in a row along the eastern end of the room, while officers—who were believed to be channels for cosmic forces—were positioned at various positions on the floor. The lodge was opened by walking around the room in a circle chanting, with the intent of building a psychic force up as a wall.[204] Next, the cosmic entities would be invoked, with the members believing that these entities would manifest in astral form and interact with the chosen officers.[204]

Fortune was particularly concerned with the issue of sex.[205] In her early works she displayed a prudish attitude regarding sexuality, warning her readers about the perceived perils of masturbation, extra-marital sex, same-sex sexual activity, abortion, and ozod sevgi.[206] The only form of sexual expression that she considered appropriate was that between a heterosexual married couple,[186] and she promoted a form of 'psychic masturbation' to quell any sexual urges that a celibate individual may have.[207] According to Richardson, she was "a prude, at least by today's standards".[208] In her later works she exhibited a more positive attitude toward sexuality, describing the sexual union between a man and woman as the most powerful expression of a "life-force" which flows throughout the universe.[205] She believed that this erotic attraction between men and women could be harnessed for use in magic.[186] She urged her followers to be naked under their robes when carrying out magical rituals, for this would increase the creative sexual tension between the men and women present.[209] Although sex features in her novels, it is never described in graphic detail.[210] Nevertheless, her later occult novels entail depictions of heterosexual sex outside of marriage, suggesting that by this point Fortune no longer believed that sex must be restrained to wedlock.[211] The scholar Andrew Radford noted that Fortune's "reactionary and highly heteronormative" view of "sacralised sexuality" should be seen as part of a wider tradition among esoteric currents, going back to the ideas of Emanuel Swedenborg va Endryu Jekson Devis and also being found in the work of occultists like Paskal Beverli Randolf va Ayda Kreddok.[212]

Fortune was among those who popularised the idea of a division between the left-hand path and right-hand path which had been introduced to Western esotericism by the Theosophist Helena Blavatskiy.[213] In doing so Fortune connected her disparaging views on what she considered to be the left hand path to the axloqiy vahima surrounding homosexuality in British society.[213] Her works contained commentaries in which she condemned the "homosexual techniques" of malevolent male magicians, and she claimed that the acceptance of homosexuality was the cause of the downfall of the ancient Greek and Roman civilisations.[214] The manner in which she sought to demonise the left hand path has been compared to that found in the work of English novelist Dennis Uitli.[215]

Shaxsiyat va shaxsiy hayot

The historian Claire Fanger noted that Fortune exhibited a "dynamic personality and confident leadership".[98] Janine Chapman, an esotericist who researched Fortune's life, stated that "in her prime", Fortune was "a strong, magnetic personality" with "an active, intellectually curious mind" who was also "physically imposing".[183] Chapman noted that while studying at horticultural college, Fortune had earned a reputation for having a "keen sense of humor", being particularly fond of amaliy hazillar.[216] Richardson characterised Fortune as being "honest, and other ruthless with her honesty",[217] adding that she was "an essentially good woman who had strands of darkness within".[218] Chapman noted that she "set an example of super-achievement, self-sacrifice, and personal integrity" and that "sexually, she was modest, faithful, and chaste".[219] In her later years, she earned a nickname among her friends in the Fraternity; "The Fluff".[220]

Richardson believed that while "sex was all important to Dion, there is the constant impression that actual coitus was distasteful" to her.[221] This was in keeping with the view of many esotericists at the time that "stainless-steel purity" free from sex was necessary for one to be a spiritual adept.[221] Chapman characterised Fortune's marriage as "rocky",[222] and the marriage produced no children.[223] In later life, there were unsubstantiated rumours that Fortune had sexual relationships with both men and women,[47] and in particular that she had a relationship with Tranchall-Hayes.[224] Richardson nevertheless noted that there was no good evidence that Fortune had "actively lesbian tendencies".[224]

Fortune did not involve herself or her group in any explicitly political movement or party.[225] Tarixchi Ronald Xutton noted that in her political and social views, Fortune was likely a Yuqori Tori,[226] with Richardson noting that politically, she was "somewhat aligned" to the ideas of the Konservativ siyosatchi Uinston Cherchill.[227] Graf noted that although Fortune was not involved in the feminist movement and did not associate with feminists, she "thought herself every bit as powerful, capable, independent, and discerning as any man, and she worked to spiritually empower women."[228] When staying at Queensborough, Fortune kept a vegetarian parhez.[229]

According to Richardson, Fortune fell into "relative obscurity" after her death, having been overshadowed by her more famous contemporary, Aleister Crowley.[230] The historian of esotericism Dave Evans agreed, stating that Fortune had been "somewhat less" influential than Crowley.[231]Hutton nevertheless considered her to be the "foremost female figure" of early 20th century British occultism,[185] while historian Alex Owen referred to her as "one of the most significant clairvoyants and occultists of the postwar period".[232] Similarly, Knight termed her "one of the leading occultists of her generation",[233] va antropolog Tanya Luhrmann referred to her as "one of the most influential twentieth-century magicians".[234] Another esotericism scholar, Nikolas Gudrik-Klark, said Fortune was an "important heir of the Golden Dawn, and she had a significant influence on modern Western esotericism".[59] Religious studies scholar Stephen Sutcliffe described her as having "played a key role in the cult of Glastonbury in the interwar years",[235] while anthropologist Susan Greenwood thought Fortune's emphasis on a masculine/feminine polarity as the basis for magical working was a significant influence on both later ceremonial magic and Wicca.[236]

The church of St. John the Baptist, Glastonbury; Fortune's funeral was performed here by the Reverend L. S. Lewis, and her body interred in the Wells Road cemetery nearby

Fortune's Fraternity survived her, and was renamed the Society of the Inner Light in 1946;[237] the change was a legal refinement to help the group achieve charitable status.[238] It continues to operate into the early 21st century.[239] The Society sold the Chalice Orchard, which was eventually purchased by Geoffrey Ashe,[240] and in 1959 sold their Bayswater headquarters after the socio-economic decline of the area, instead establishing a base in North London.[241] While retaining its basis in Fortune's original teachings, the Society has changed its emphasis according to who has led it over the years. At various points it has been heavily influenced by Elis Beyli 's ideas about the Ascended Masters, the ideas of Subud va foydalanish Sayentologiya "s Elektron metr.[242] In 1961, the Society adopted a new approach which further emphasised and foregrounded its Christian identity. This generated controversy in the group, with Garet Nayt leaving to form his own lodge based on Fortune's teachings, known as the Gareth Knight Group.[243] In 1973 one of Fortune's students, W. E. Butler, likewise split with the Fraternity to found his own group in Jersi, Nurning xizmatchilari, which would later be taken over by Dolores Ashkroft-Nowicki and remains one of the world's largest esoteric organizations in the early 21st century maintaining about 1000 active students.[244] In 1975, another member of the Society, Alan Adams, departed to start the London Group, which was initially based in outer London but later moved to the Sharqiy Midlands.[245]

By the late 1990s the Society's membership had dropped to a few dozen, and under the control of a new warden it invited Knight to return to the group in order to help promote it. Knight agreed, leaving his own lodge to publish two works by Fortune based on her material in the Society's archive, and authoring a biography of her.[246] The 1990s saw a number of pioneering biographical studies of Fortune, including Alan Richardson's in 1991 and Janine Chapman's in 1993.[185] Richardson's book relied heavily on the recollections of Christine Hartley,[247] while the publication of Fielding and Carr was based upon the authors' interactions with older members of the Society.[247] However, in 2007 Graf noted that Fortune had yet to receive much scholarly attention.[164]

In the early 21st century, Evans noted that Fortune's work was "still influential in some magical quarters",[214] highlighting that in his experience she was one of only three female ceremonial magicians—alongside Leah Xirsig va Jaq Hawkins —that modern esotericists could readily name.[248]

Fortune's literary influence on modern Paganism

"Through her novels and her theoretical occult works, Dion Fortune has left a legacy that is rich and potent for those who choose to adopt a goddess-centered religion. Fortune laid the groundwork that has been followed by later neo-pagans and goddess-centered practitioners who want to find a religion that is not patriarchal and offers divine images other than that of a male god or a passive, human, mother of god. The practices and beliefs that Fortune found, and has passed on, offer a balance of power, a kind a partnership model for the divine."

– Literary scholar Susan Johnston Graf.[249]

Dinshunoslik bo'yicha olim Hugh Urban noted that Fortune was "one of the key links" between early twentieth-century ceremonial magic and the developing Pagan religion of Vikka.[205] Similarly, the Wiccan high priestess Vivianne Krouli characterised Fortune as a "proto-Pagan".[188] The scholar and esotericist Nevill Drury stated that Fortune "in many ways anticipated feminist ideas in contemporary Wicca", particularly through her belief that all goddesses were a manifestation of a single Great Goddess.[250] Graf agreed, adding that Fortune's works found "resonance" in the work of the later feminist Wiccan Starhawk, and in particular in the latter's 1979 book, Spiral raqs.[225]

In researching ceremonial magic orders and other esoteric groups active in the London area during the 1980s, Luhrmann found that within them, Fortune's novels were treated as "fictionalized ideals" and that they were recommended to newcomers as the best way to understand magic.[251] The Butparastlik scholar Joanne Pearson added that Fortune's books, and in particular the novels Dengiz ruhoniysi va Moon Magic, were owned by many Wiccans and other Pagans.[188] The religious studies scholar Graham Harvey compared Dengiz ruhoniysi to the Wiccan Jerald Gardner 1949 yilgi roman Yuqori sehrli yordam, stating that while neither were "great literature", they "evoke Paganism better than later more didactic works".[252]

Fortune's priestesses were an influence on the characters of Marion Zimmer Bredli "s Avalon tumanlari,[253] and her ideas were adopted as the basis for the Aquarian Order of the Restoration, a ceremonial magic group led by Bradley.[254] Her works also influenced Bradley's collaborator and fellow Order member Diana Paxson.[255] As of 2007, Fortune's latter three novels remained in print and had a wide readership.[95] Evans nevertheless believed that her writings were "stuck in their era" in many places; as evidence, he highlighted passages in which Fortune warns her readers that their Indian servants may steal their body waste products for use in the worship of the Hindu goddess Kali.[256]
