group.amorc.photo — Grand Masters of two countries plus the Imperator, join members at a gala dinner during the 2016 Rosicrucian tour of Eygpt.

Over the last month and a half local AMORC members have been responding to our online survey, and now the results are in.

Thank you to all who took the time to complete the online form or for speaking with me over the phone. The feedback we got is invaluable. You helped us to see what is most important to you as a spiritual seeker and as a member of AMORC. [You can still take the survey here.]

So, what did everyone say?

To date, 42 members responded to the survey. Most of them were members who have not attended convocation in 6 months or more. More than, anything else those who answered the call indicated that a sense of community is the most important single quality that ESP can provide.

Public Class on The Overall Exercise Jan. 27, in Portland

On January 2, 2019June 17, 2019 By Oregon AMORCIn EventsLeave a comment

overalexcerise On Jan. 27th, the Enneadic Star Pronaos will conduct a class on the Rosicrucian Overall Exercise as practiced by the Ancient and Mystical Order Rosae Crucis (AMORC).

The Overall Exercise is a term used for a foundational meditation technique. This is a basic visualization in which the body is charged with light and cosmic energy. The practice is incorporated into many of the more advanced practices taught by AMORC.

It’s often recommended that you practice the Overall Exercise each morning or each evening before bed. The practice is often coupled with intoning of the Vowel Sounds and with the Charging of Water Exercise.

This class is highly recommended for new members and for long-time members who want to renew or reinvigorate their practice. If you are simply interested in learning more about AMORC teachings and practices, this is a great way to start.

Curious About Rosicrucian Mystical Practices? Come to Public Vowel Sounds Class

On December 4, 2018June 1, 2019 By Oregon AMORCIn News4 Comments

hyroglyphs.vowel.sounds The Enneadic Star Pronaos will hold a class on the Rosicrucian vowel sounds, on Sunday, January 13. The event is a rare teaching that is entirely open to the public. We’re very excited about it.

The event will be great for people who want to learn more about Rosicrucian mystical techniques and a good way for our current members to practice in a group and connect with others.

We’re Into the Group Thing

We encourage all to attend. Rosicrucian techniques are powerful, and they can have a greater impact when practiced in a group. The vibratory energy released the vowel sounds in a group is something everyone should experiences. Many of us have had incredible experiences intoning vowels sounds at Rosicrucians convocations, seminars or other large gatherings of Rosicrucians.

Sunday, Nov. 25, we’ll have convocation ritual and a lecture on The Power of Speech from the Rosicrucian teachings of AMORC. Convocation is a members-only ritual.

Please arrive 15 minutes early and seat yourself in the library. Observe revenant silence to prepare yourself in the final five minutes before you are called into the “temple.” Dress appropriately and bring you membership credential and apron. If you do not have an AMORC apron one can be loaned to you. If you are a member in good standing and do not have your credentials, another member can vouch for you, for one time.

Convocation will be followed by a “social hour” for snacks and open discussion beginning at 3:15 pm.
