Some Georgian tenets and
precepts
*The Georgian Tradition is normally taught and passed male
to
female, female to male.
*
The Georgian Tradition is one of
many branches of the Craft;
it is Traditional in that it is taught and
passed generally through a coven
setting and always by persons who have
been Initiated and Elevated to the
Priesthood, according to the rites
and rituals of the Tradition. It is
eclectic in that it has origins in
many sources: Alexandrian, Gardnerian,
Celtic and other Traditions, and
values to a high degree the creativity and
originality of its
members.
*
The Georgian Tradition is considered "oath-bound":
the
mysteries and lore of the Tradition are not passed to any but
"Proper Persons"
who have been "Properly Prepared."
*
While
the internet is a useful tool in learning and
communication, it does
not provide a means for Initiation or Elevation to
other degrees within
the Georgian Tradition. (Georgian Online Council of
Elders, August
2000)
