The Story of Dion Fortune

Dion Fortune and Aleister Crowley stand as the twentieth century's most influential leaders of the Western Esoteric Tradition. They were very different in the backgrounds, scholarship and style. She taught that initiates, that is, those who understand something of their own true nature and purpose and who are trying to cooperate with the unfolding of the Grand Plan, had a duty to help their fellow humans toward light, freedom and eventual godhead. Dion Fortune devoted her life to preparing a psycho-spiritual system that would assist man on his spiritual journey. In this respect she followed many others; but her unique combination of dedication, drive and commonsense placed her as one of the foremost figures in the esoteric world.
