The Initiate Path is an outgrowth of the desire to balance our worldly scholarship with otherworldly vision and wonder, to plumb the depths of our own nature as human beings and understand how we, ourselves, relate to the cosmos around us. This is the path of keeping the hearth fires lit and brightly shining, of pushing and challenging ones self in order to understand who we are and where we fit, and of learning how to forge ourselves into shining beings who have deep connections with the forces at play in the cosmos. The Path of an ADF Initiate is built on individual devotion and work, even while it is designed, in the end, to provide service in the form of skilled diviners, magicians, and tranceworkers to the community of ADF.
