First Degree initiation is granted
in recognition and confirmation of a good general knowledge of
a number of occult disciplines as well as of the specific traditions
and rituals of NorthWind.
While it is sincerely hoped that you will
develop skills; the utmost effort made to accomplish this
end, you are not judged upon your ability to DO when we consider
granting your First Degree. That is, your ability to actually
raise power, to actually do valid divination, etc. That you know
and are practiced in the methods is the requirement.
While there are basic First Degree Classes
or lessons, these are not necessarily all you will be expected
to learn before you are granted initiation. Each student is
assigned to a teacher or study group. NorthWind Study Groups are
usually led by a First Degree Initiate, but circumstances of time,
availability and geography dictates the final composition.
NorthWind offers in-person and online classes. The student's and
teacher's responsibilities
and requirements remain the
same, whether in-person or online. Those students working by correspondence, please read both
this section and the following one on Correspondence
study.
If, after reviewing all of the materials, you are interested in
applying for First Degree classes,
please fill out the New Student Questionnaire.
