Yes I think there is some of that -

I wrote about my own work with "A Vision" and the "Lunar Tarot" a while back in a chapter in

"Tankhem: Seth & egyptian magick"

I also use some of his trance techniques as described in "A Vision"

another area would be Enochian Chess (bit specialised I know)

but - steve nicholls has just done first vol of three

first one is rosicrucian chess - second is on more yeatsian version

small, but influential I would think -

there is perhaps some animus to yeats from the Crowlean pov

Hello everyone--I could use a little assistance.

In the Appendix to Family Secrets: William Butler Yeats and His Relatives, William Murphy makes the rather startling claim "his works are studied by occult societies."  I'm a bit floored by this.  Is anyone aware of a group that actually uses A Vision's system in a pragmatic way, or the rituals for his Celtic Order?  Long, long ago I wrote a short piece on A Vision for a publication affiliated with the Ordo Templi Orientis, but I never got so much as a word of correspondence back because of it.  Likewise, I once heard about a neopagan group that purported to use what I assumed were Yeats's Celtic rituals back in the 1970s, but when I tracked it down, it didn't seem at all authentic. That's it for practitioners using Yeats.

Thoughts?

Best,

Nick Serra
