What is best way to get a quick taste of the practical side of the Ogdoadic Mysteries?

There are a number of different things you can do. For initial familiarity, you can try working through some of the basic practices publicised in Mysteria Magica (Denning and Phillips). Suggested examples include: The Calyx The Setting of the Wards of Power The Clavis Rei Primae You can also find these exercises on the web at Ogdoadic Notes Most of these exercises require at least an elemental level of proficiency in basic magical techniques. Those experienced with the Golden Dawn-based system will note some similarity, but will probably be quite surprised at the differences too, particularly the added importance of breath and movement. For those with no experience, the programme laid out in Norman Krafts Ogdoadic Magick will give beginners a good exposure to the basics. Those who have tasted the system and like it may wish to consider applying for Probationer status with the Astrum Sophia.
