The Rose Circle Revival/Renaissance







Well, tonight we had the second board meeting this month for the Rose Circle Research Society. We met in our usual place on Brother Booth's couches and got quite a bit done and settled tonight. There has been a bit of a blocker bug with the website that we should be past by this Wednesday evening that prevented us from updating the members section with new content. We will now be uploading new content in the form of papers authored exclusively for the Rose Circle by the likes of Allan Armstrong, R.A. Gilbert, Trevor Stewart, Chic Cicero, Christopher McIntosh, Tommy Westlund, Piers Vaughan and others.

We were joined tonight by our colleague from Prague, William Hollister & our new Press Secretary Jay Hochberg. Along with the content update this week, we should also be having the tickets for the October 4th conference go on sale this week as well. No surprises here, they are forecast to be $40 each with admittance to the Salon de l'Rose Croix art installation & 3 speakers (including the headliner R. A. Gilbert) a few surprise guest appearances, and a Q&A session at the end.

Also in the works are several DVDs currently being edited. The first one is a DVD presentation of April's Conference on the Psychology or Ritual. The others range from a Feast of Sts John celebration in Haiti involving the Grand Orient and an Invocation of the 22 Divine Names public ceremony, and a DVD of interviews and snippets from the likes of Most Worthy Thurman C. Pace Jr., Most Rev. Herbert A. Fisher, Michael N. Buckley, Dr. Raphael Ortiz, Gilbert Tappa, H.E. Andrew B. Stephenson KGC, KOJ, Ritter Von Blauch, the Archivist of the Swedish Rite and many other personalities, leaders and figures from the various scenes & circles of modern Chivalric, Esoteric, Masonic and Occult Orders. It should prove to be quite good.

Keep a watch on the Rose Circle!
