In October 1887, Westcott claimed to have written to a German countess and prominent Rosicrucian named Anna Sprengel, whose address was said to have been found in the decoded Cipher Manuscripts. According to Westcott, Sprengel claimed the ability to contact certain supernatural entities, known as the Secret Chiefs, that were considered the authorities over any magical order or esoteric organization. Westcott purportedly received a reply from Sprengel granting permission to establish a Golden Dawn temple and conferring honorary grades of Adeptus Exemptus on Westcott, Mathers, and Woodman. The temple was to consist of the five grades outlined in the manuscripts. | In October 1887, Westcott claimed to have written to a German countess and prominent Rosicrucian named Anna Sprengel, whose address was said to have been found in the decoded Cipher Manuscripts.

In 1888, the Isis-Urania Temple was founded in London. | In 1888, the Isis-Urania Temple was founded in London. In contrast to the S.R.I.A. and Masonry, women were allowed and welcome to participate in the Order in "perfect equality" with men. The Order was more of a philosophical and metaphysical teaching order in its early years. Other than certain rituals and meditations found in the Cipher manuscripts and developed further, "magical practices" were generally not taught at the first temple. | ||
For the first four years, the Golden Dawn was one cohesive group later known as "the Outer Order" or "First Order." An "Inner Order" was established and became active in 1892. The Inner Order consisted of members known as "adepts," who had completed the entire course of study for the Outer Order. This group of adepts eventually became known as the Second Order. Eventually, the Osiris temple in Weston-super-Mare, the Horus temple in Bradford (both in 1888), and the Amen-Ra temple in Edinburgh (1893) were founded. In 1893 Mathers founded the Ahathoor temple in Paris. | For the first four years, the Golden Dawn was one cohesive group later known as "the Outer Order" or "First Order."

'''Crowley was refused initiation into the Adeptus Minor grade by the London officials. Mathers overrode their decision and quickly initiated him at the Ahathoor temple in Paris on January 16, 1900.''' Upon his return to the London temple, Crowley requested from Miss Cracknell, the acting secretary, the papers acknowledging his grade, to which he was now entitled. To the London Adepts, this was the final straw. Farr, already of the opinion that the London temple should be closed, wrote to Mathers expressing her wish to resign as his representative, although she was willing to carry on until a successor was found. Mathers believed Westcott was behind this turn of events and replied on February 16. On March 3, a committee of seven Adepts was elected in London, and requested a full investigation of the matter. Mathers sent an immediate reply, declining to provide proof, refusing to acknowledge the London temple, and dismissing Farr as his representative on March 23. In response, a general meeting was called on March 29 in London to remove Mathers as chief and expel him from the Order. | '''Crowley was refused initiation into the Adeptus Minor grade by the London officials.

These concepts in regard to the [[Baphomet]] greatly influenced the [[Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn]], which greatly influenced the [[NAA]] alien abductee and Thothian poster boy for spreading Satanism on the earth, [[Aleister Crowley]]. Crowley adapted many of Levi’s ideas and took on the [[Baphomet]] as his own initiatory name in the [[Ordo Templi Orientis]], Order of Oriental Templars (OTO). Crowley used [[Islam]]ic terminology when he proclaimed himself as the Caliph of the OTO, which goes back to the [[Church of Rome]]’s covert influence in co-creating Islam and furthering its influence on the [[Luciferian Knights Templar]]s in France during the Middle Ages.<ref>[https://energeticsynthesis.com/index.php/resource-tools/news-shift-timelines/3481-baphomet-deception Baphomet Deception]</ref> | |||
