The [[Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn]] (or Golden Dawn, as it is commonly referred to) is a tradition of magical theurgy and spiritual development, probably the single greatest influence on twentieth century western occultism and many other traditions, including [[Wicca]], [[Thelema]] and other forms of magical spirituality popular today. By the mid 1890s, the Golden Dawn was well established in Great Britain, with membership rising to over a hundred from every class of Victorian society. In its heyday, many cultural celebrities belonged to the Golden Dawn, such as actress [[Florence Farr]], [[Arthur Machen]], [[William Butler Yeats]], [[Evelyn Underhill]], and [[Aleister Crowley]]. Many men and women of the 19th century Fin de siècle social culture were members of the Golden Dawn.
