The text of The UnderWorld Initiation by R. J. Stewart exists in a rarefied air. Though it draws extensively from Celtic material, its value can be extracted by aspirants of any esoteric tradition as it has since it was first published in 1990 because it exceeds its source material on many levels due to lived experience.
I have quoted content that applies universally regarding initiatory theurgy within a deeper context of truly illuminatory tradition.
As Stewart’s ‘Opus’ it offers a great deal of insight that warrants a direct reading of the text to put the following excerpts into context as Stewart intended.
Print copies are had to find, but you can try your luck on Amazon.1
Anthologies are curated excerpts from texts I have in my library (Ex Libris) that are part of my ongoing personal research process which focuses heavily on practical aspects of theurgy and the illuminatory process of initiatory traditions in the Divine Mysteries.
I share them (protectively) to provide transparency to my students and subscribers for references I use in my work and to encourage those keenly interested to purchase the full text in support of the authors and publishers.
From the Text, The UnderWorld Initiation…
An archetype is a Matrix or key image which gives shape and direction to energies arising out of the Primal Source of all being. p. 92
The divine Crown, the Keystone of the Arch of Creation, is inherent in the physical body. If it can be brought to full awareness, it calls and attunes all other modes or Spheres instantly to its immaculate nature. p. 125
