Glossary

How These A∴A∴ Reading Lists Were Determined

These grade reading lists were compiled from the published A∴A∴ material and its historical documentation.

Primary source:

  • The Equinox, Volume I, Numbers 1–10

Additional sources used:

  • Liber LXI (Liber Causæ)
  • Liber XXXIII (An Account of A∴A∴)
  • Liber CLXXXV (grade task paper)
  • Liber CCVII (official publication catalogue)
  • Magick in Theory and Practice (Book 4, Part III)
  • The Mystical & Magical System of the A∴A∴ (James A. Eshelman)

The intent is to reflect the curriculum structure as documented in these sources without adding modern revisions or interpretations.
