What is the Portal Ritual of the Golden Dawn?

Aeon418

They could have quoted that brief passage from the ritual that you posted. This explains the difference succinctly. Anyone wishing greater depth could seek it out in the Golden Dawn rituals.

To satisfy curiosity they could have and probably should have. But maybe the Cicero's thought it didn't matter. Outside of one very specific ritual context is there any practical difference between the two cards?

I don't own the separate companion book anymore. (Not the one that comes with the deck.) But I'm sure they mentioned it there. Can anyone confirm or deny?

Or was it in the Cicero's Self Initiation book? I haven't got that one anymore either! :laugh:
