Life
Dion Fortune (Violet Mary Firth, 1890–1946) was a British occult writer and founder of the Fraternity of the Inner Light. Books such as The Mystical Qabalah and Psychic Self-Defence circulated ceremonial and psychological vocabulary to a broad print audience. ORDL presents her as ceremonial literature—not as a grade syllabus. This page does not teach lodge work or psychic technique.
