Dion
Fortune - Violet Mary Firth Evans (1890
- 1946), (D.O.B December 6, 1890) -
some sources give her year of birth as
1891 - born Violet Mary Firth, was a
British occultist and author who was
born at Bryn-y-Bia in Llandudno, Wales
Her pseudonym was inspired by her
family motto "Deo, non fortuna" (which
translates as "God, not fate"). She
reported visions of Atlantis at age
four and the developing of psychic
abilities during her twentieth year.
She attended courses in psychology and
psychoanalysis at the University of
London , and became a lay
psychotherapist at the
Medico-Psychological Clinic in
Brunswick Square.
Her first magical mentor was the Irish occultist and Freemason Theodore Moriarty In 1919 she was initiated into the London Temple of the Alpha et Omega [7], a lodge of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, before transferring to the Stella Matutina Lodge of The Golden Dawn, then run by Moina Mathers, widow of Samuel Liddell MacGregor-Mathers. Of her non-fictional works on magical subjects, the best remembered of her books are; The Cosmic Doctrine, meant to be a summation of her basic teachings on mysticism, The Mystical Qabalah, an introduction to Hermetic Qabalah, and Psychic Self Defence a manual on how to protect one's self from psychic attacks. Though some of her writings may seem dated to contemporary readers, they have the virtue of lucidity, and the avoidance of the deliberate obscurity that characterised many of her forerunners and contemporaries. | |
