*****The Seventh Ray is an "occasional journal" that we (O.T.A.)
publish about once a year. Years ago in the 1970s it was smaller and
quarterly. Now it runs 100+ pages, trade quality bound in parchment
board. We have two issues currently available from
www.barnesandnoble.com  or from us at Rivendell in Southern California
http://members.aol.com/CHSOTA/productions.html/ You can check it out
further at our web site. ******

Good Magick!
