EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing "Colour wheel used for divination" created in 1894 by William Wynn Westcott. The intricate artwork, composed of watercolor and ink on card, is an artifact from the Second Order of the Golden Dawn, known as Rosae Rubeae et Aureae Crucis. The image transports us to the mystical world of esoteric practices prevalent during the fin de siècle Victorian era. Its vibrant hues and enigmatic symbols evoke a sense of intrigue and wonder. The wheel's purpose was to aid practitioners in divination, offering insights into hidden realms through its Hebrew letters and hermetic signs. As we gaze upon this relic from another time, we are reminded of the profound influence that occultism had on society at that period. It represents a fusion between artistry and spirituality, with each stroke carefully imbued with meaning. This photograph not only captures the beauty and complexity of Westcott's creation but also serves as a portal into an age where secret societies like Rosicrucianists sought enlightenment through ancient wisdom. It invites us to explore their rituals and beliefs while marveling at their dedication to unlocking universal truths. Intriguingly mysterious yet undeniably alluring, this colour wheel stands as a testament to human fascination with the unknown – forever preserving history's enigmatic secrets within its delicate brushstrokes.
