Hello brethren!
I am writing to ask if anyone knows of or is involved with recognized appendant bodies which have esoteric leanings. As many of you may know, many other organizations have their roots in Freemasonry, including the former Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn and the Ordo Templi Orientis. However, neither of these bodies are recognized as Masonic any longer. While I have no reason to believe membership in them would constitute a breach of Masonic protocol (Golden Dawn is no more, and OTO no longer claims to teach Masonry), I would like to pursue these kinds of studies building upon the structure of my Masonic edifice within the Masonic tradition and among my brethren. As far as I can tell, the only organization that may have these leanings is the Societas Rosicruciana, which is invite only. Does anyone know of others?
