    Welcome to the Circle.  

    There is an old magickal saying, "When the Student is ready, the
    Teacher will appear."  If you are reading these words, chances are
    that you are among the Called - those compelled by an irresistible
    inner pull to seek the deeper meanings of Life, with an
    unquenchable thirst for the knowledge and skills of the numinous
    realm beyond the mundane.

    Throughout the ages, the path that lies before you has been trod
    by the priestesses and priests of the ancient temples, by
    sorceresses, wizards, mystics, magi, scholars, and sages, by
    witches, shamans, wise women, and cunning men.  These "twice-
    born" initiates were the first scientists, philosophers, physicians,
    counselors, story tellers, musicians, and teachers.  They were the
    custodians of the highest cultural concepts.

    In the tradition of the ancient mystery schools, the Circle of the
    Golden Ankh is a School of Life, devoted to the study of the
    mysteries of our inner nature and the mysteries of surrounding
    Nature.  By understanding these mysteries, we perceive our
    intimate relationship with Divinity and the Web of Life, and re-link
    (the meaning of the word "religion") with the Divine.

    Our symbol is the ankh, the ancient symbol of Life, whose form
    represents the divine marriage of feminine and masculine polarities
    that sparks, energizes, and sustains creation.    

    Are you ready to begin your journey, or continue a journey already
    begun, on the path of the Golden Ankh?  Gather close, warm
    yourself by our fire, listen to the tales we have to tell on these
    pages, and we shall see.
