The Temple of the Silver Star is an initiatory Order within the College of Thelema of Northern California.   We offer initiation, healing work, and a complete system of training in the Western Mysteries.  Our degree system is based on the Qabalistic Tree of Life and the cipher formulae of the Golden Dawn.  

For a brief review of our history, including the foundational warrant from Soror Meral, please follow this link.

Our entire curriculum is constructed to be in conformity with the Law of Thelema, and our central aim is to guide each aspirant toward the realization of their purpose in life, or True Will.   In order to empower our members to discover and carry out their True Will, we teach Qabalah, Tarot, ceremonial magick, meditation, astrology, and much more.   Our initiates meet twice per month for group ceremonial and healing work, classes, and other instruction.  We occasionally offer classes and rituals which are open to the public.   Please email us if you would like to be placed on our email list for announcements of public events.

The headquarters of the Temple of the Silver Star, located in Sacramento, California, has its home in the beautiful Soror Meral Building and Gardens, erected in 2004 as a dedicated Thelemic temple and classroom space. 

Initiation is by application and interview.  If you are interested in learning more, we invite you to download an application and submit it to your closest local body, or to email us with questions.  Active participation in a local group is the best way to maximize the benefits of our system.  However, we do offer “At-Large” memberships for those living at some distance from one of our local bodies.   Please note that all initiations are performed in person, at a duly warranted local body. 

NOTE:  The COTNC requirement of 2 years of college (or its equivalent) is NOT a requirement for initiation into the Temple of the Silver Star.  Also, note that all initiates of the Temple of the Silver Star are automatically enrolled as members of COTNC.
