Dragons Gate

General information

Dragons Gate and The Academy of Magic.

The A. O. M. is born out of a desire to preserve the occult teachings of the past, from varied traditions, and to teach these same secret truths to the next generation as part of a perpetual movement of education and enlightenment.

Within the Academy’s matrix we find many methods and semantic systems which, when stripped down to their essence include many obscure and unusual subjects (themes; topics; threads; disciplines).

The serious student should appreciate that this is an abstruse subject touching on matters such as

Herbalism, (for which a reasonable knowledge of anatomy\physiology is required);
Language skills (such as Old Hebrew);
Mythology and Folklore;
Numerology (mathematics);
Astrology (astronomy);
Construction and Understanding of Talismans (metallurgy\metal working, including jewellers skills);
Symbolism and Symbolic Languages;
Magical alphabets and other skills (such as (the obvious) Spell Casting for which Rhyme and Metre are important);

Many of these disciplines are predicated upon historical perspectives for which simply relying upon translated works or judicious use of dictionaries proves woefully inadequate!

Dragons Gate (The/this Dragons Gate community) has always been the community outreach arm of the AOM. Based within a retail environment Dragons Gate is a place for people to meet and share, discuss problems and achievements and to grow, learn and develop together.

Listen carefully and you will hear the Dragon stirring, phoenix like, from its slumber.....
