Introduction to the AOC
The Akashic Order of the Craft offers a three level program of occult study. This class is a three session introductory to the Level 1 course; it will meet once a month and will cover three areas of discussion:
Session 1: Offers a survey of the history of religion and its impact on humanity, our personal stories and how they shape our own attitudes and biases toward ourselves and others as well as our ability to adapt and hold a level of objectivity.
Session 2: This session focuses on two primary topics: The Hermetic Principles and energy, in general, with a focus on the energy of the human being and our ability to self-discipline and control it.
Session 3: Discusses the importance of self-cognizance, self-discipline and offers various ways our energy is either increased or diminished as a result of our behaviors.
This introductory class allows the student an opportunity to determine whether the course of study supports their personal goals. Additionally, it permits the teacher to evaluate the level of student commitment before making a more substantial investment of time and resources. While it would be ideal to have all students who start the introductory course succeed and begin the year-long study, there is no guarantee that all students will be selected. The criteria for acceptance into the year-long class is based on three primary factors: 1. openness to new ideas and concepts, 2. commitment to the required study practices, and 3. ability to perform, and compliance with, directives such as required homework and daily exercises. Those who demonstrate these aptitudes will be invited individually to join the full year-long study which will begin the following September.
Introductory classes begin each March.
