The Order of the Elodrym is an international community for magickal and mystical folk.
Welcome to the community. There are several ways to participate. There is a community library (tome), forum, social network, and academy. We are spread out, mainly across the United States, but we have participants in Canada and Europe. There is an opportunity to be part of a branch in Missouri, USA. You can also post in the forum and see if you are near any other community members.

The Order's History
We started as a circle of friends and acquaintances, some of whom had known each other and been practicing together for almost ten years. In February 2006, we announced the group formation of the Elodrym and created our web site.
Our Motto
"Consciously creating and living within the pattern of reality."
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide a positive, encouraging environment for people who are studying the magickal arts and sciences, to celebrate the Wheel of the Year as well as other life milestones with friends and family, and provide a warm and inviting community for those seeking fellowship.
Our Vision
Our Hope for the World
We want to work with others to create a world that is egalitarian, maintains a balance between innovation and sustainable living, and encourages conscious spiritual evolution.
Who We Are
Who we are and what we do is in the unique name Elodrym. It's a combination of words. "El" is Middle Eastern in origin. It means god. "Drym" is British for ridge. So it would translate into God of the Ridge. This reflects our philosophy that Divinity is within everyone and everything. The concept of mages on a ridge is symbolic of having a broad perspective of the world around us and our place in it. It isn't meant to say we are higher up or better. We are seers and feel we should gently share what we know.
We are an egalitarian organization whose members, while being of diverse religions, share a deep sense of spiritual connection to the universe around them. We teach and honor masculine, feminine, and gender neutral principles. Membership is open to people of all gender, nationality, ethnicity, religion and sexual orientation.
How We View Organizational Structure
Everyone is worthy of a relationship with Divinity, The All, the Ultimate Reality as it is called by many names and do not require anyone to intercede for them. Elders and leaders in the community just have more experience with esoteric knowledge, ceremonies, teaching, and administrative duties. They do not wear regulated vestments. Regalia can be worn at ceremonies but everyone dresses in their own personal style.
What We Do
Provide members of the order with rituals both public and private; community celebrations; instruction in magick and mysticism; the chance to contribute to a community library, perform community service, and develop social and professional relationships.
Teach and promote the principles and practices of the religious and philosophical systems of magick and mysticism in order to advance individual liberty and human spiritual evolution.
Conserve and manage books, documents, and other works that members contribute.
Establish branches of activity in diverse locations.
