Toward Ecosophy

Here's the initiation ritual for the Server Grade, the third step on the ladder of the FHR.  If you've followed the instructions in the Seeker and Sojourner Grade prospectuses (prospecti?), studied the instructional papers, made and consecrated your cup, and done last week's scrying exercise at least three times, you're qualified to receive this initiation. (And yes, I know that all this is coming out at fire-hose rates and few if any of my readers have had time to do this much work. Don't worry about it -- you can make a copy of the ritual, and all the other FHR material, and do it as you get to it.) 

Preliminaries and Preparations

This ritual is the third step in your initiation into the Fellowship of the Hermetic Rose.  It builds on the initiations you have already taken and the work you have already done.  Be sure to read the text of the ritual carefully before deciding whether or not to perform it. If you decide to proceed, certain preliminaries are necessary, and certain preparations need to be made.
