Event Description

The Philadelphia Atelier of the Traditional Martinist Order is scheduled to have the Associate Degree Initiation on Sunday, November 12, 2017 starting at 1PM. This initiation enables you to attend degree appropriate conventicles and classes at Martinist Heptads and Ateliers.

In order to take the Associate Degree Initiation you would need to be both an up-to-date Rosicrucian member (any degree level) and a TMO home study member and have submitted an application for the initiation. If you are not already a Martinist, you can join as indicated above at www.martinists.org. It costs $75.00 to join.

Also, the Philadelphia Atelier will be starting an Associate Degree class for new TMO members in January, 2018. Martinists who have had the Associate Degree initiation in a Heptad or Atelier are eligible to participate. The class will run for two years and is tentatively scheduled for the first Sunday of the month at 4 pm. (Some exceptions apply, you will be provided with a schedule.)

If you are not yet familiar with the Martinist Tradition, or would like more information, you can request "The Light of Martinism" a short booklet on the Tradition and its history, at www.martinists.org.
