Founded by American occultist Alice Bailey (1880–1949) and her husband Foster Bailey in 1923, the Arcane School teaches the system of occult philosophy received by Alice Bailey in trance from an entity calling himself the Tibetan master Djwal Khul. The Arcane School aims at initiating and training a “New Group of World Servers” to assist in the work of the Masters of the Great White Lodge. Many of its teachings derive from Theosophy, which Bailey studied extensively before setting up her own school, and its course of study focuses on meditation, study, and service to the Great Plan as a way of life.

Sometimes my local branch of the OTO shares what they're up to in their community magic classes and I can't help by think, "Awww, I remember doing this same stuff when I was 14."
Which isn't shade, everyone starts somewhere. But it also highlights an observation ive had about my local initiatory occult traditions is that they feel stuck in the past/occult 101 mindsets. The most exciting stuff I hear coming from these groups tends to be individual projects done by their community leaders. Which is great, but I'd only be interested in going deeper if the community was doing THAT with them.
Some groups with secrets or secret levels promise access to special powers, or leverage over other human beings to get wealth, success or love. Occult groups sometimes promise techniques to get you want in this life, or offer you ways to get revenge or hurt others who have hurt you. This can attract people who feel they have been wronged or are vulnerable or powerless in some way. Other occult groups sometimes require people to keep secrets, sometimes threatening penalties if the secrets are revealed. Others require people to go through initiations, tests or rituals to prove their worthiness to join or to advance within the groups themselves. Some of those rituals can be deliberately frightening or arduous.
W.B. Yeats's passion for mysticism and the occult sciences was displayed through his poetry. He was a member of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn.
Did you know that Yeats was fascinated by the occult? He was a member of Madam Blavatsky’s Theosophical Society (eventually expelled) and the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn.
The young William Butler Yeats was introduced to the study and practice of the occult while in art college in Dublin – his instant fascination with the occult, metaphysics and paranormal activities was to remain with him throughout his life. His passion for mysticism and the occult sciences was displayed through his poetry and writings.
The path to conventional Christianity had been cut off for Yeats by his father’s religious scepticism, but his need to believe in something and a hunger for the spiritual life led him to seek and devise an alternative system of beliefs, according to official Yeats biographer Roy Foster.
He spent a lifetime seeking contact with the spirit world through occult researches and practices that informed much of what he did and wrote. As Foster points out, his involvement in the occult was intimately bound up in his complex relationships with a series of women who shared these beliefs and almost all the women who inspired his poems were involved in the occult.
His occultism fits into an Irish Protestant literary tradition that includes Sheridan Le Fanu, Charles Maturin, Bram Stoker and Elizabeth Bowen.
It was while studying at the Metropolitan School of Art in Dublin that Yeats met the poet, dramatist, and painter George Russell who inspired his interest in mysticism, giving him a copy of A.P. Sinnett’s Esoteric Buddhism.
Reincarnation, communication with the dead, mediums, supernatural systems and Oriental mysticism fascinated Yeats through his life. In 1885, he became a founding member of the Dublin Lodge of the Hermetic Society with Russell.
