"I had the pleasure of talking to Frater RC this evening-during a privately booked session, and the experience was extremely helpful. I've been struggling a little with some of my magical workings and his counsel was a very refreshing in-depth perspective that allowed me to find some of the answers I was looking for. I have sought counsel from three separate adepts about a particular aspect of my path working, and his response to my inquiry was far more illuminating than the others. His extensive experience with teaching and volume of knowledge was apparent, and I look forward to booking additional one on one sessions with him."  

"Over the last several years, Frater R.C. and I have worked together weekly, so it is hard to write my sentiments in one passage. Through my studies, spiritual practices, theological questioning, vocational path and calling, and everything in between, Frater R.C. has been a faithful companion, guide, and mentor. Frater R.C. is full of such wisdom and understanding and his guidance on my path has been essential. He has gone above and beyond to help me in my vocational goals; I don't think I would have been able to get to where I am today without him. Frater R.C. is such a genuine person with a high level of experience and a wealth of knowledge. Working together has not only been a fruitful experience, but a true delight. I look forward to our continued work together!"

"I have been studying with Frater R.C. for a number of years and have learned so much from him. He is very articulate, pulling from a vast store of knowledge accumulated from his extensive experience in magic both as a solo practitioner and as a Hierophant of a former Golden Dawn temple. He has an easygoing and approachable style working well with students from all walks of life and magical orientations. He provides well-researched and considerate answers to questions that run the gamut and although he has an underlying course structure he enthusiastically makes room to accommodate the class's interests which takes us in fun directions. Such experimentation finds us magically travelling our inner worlds and contacting spiritual beings on a regular basis. And remarkably, this is all done on Zoom with all of the students reporting some incredible experiences. I'm so glad to have found Frater RC and always look forward to his weekly classes."

“I found Frater R.C.’s weekly school to be a rich, supportive community of experienced seekers. Topics included extended presentations on each of the major arcana in the Tarot, the Christian Kabbalah, pathworking with godforms, Enochian angel magic and much more. Frater R.C. brings thirty years of study and practice in ceremonial magic to the group and is a thoughtful and insightful spiritual teacher who is welcoming to a diversity of experience levels and spiritual traditions.”

"Hermetic Mystery School is a fantastic source for anyone interested in studying magic. For such a convoluted subject with so many deliberately obscured texts and no clear path forward, especially if you aren't fortunate enough to live in one of the few places that has an active, quality magical order, HMS's three-year curriculum provides you with an essential program to learn and practice the core skills that are necessary for magicians. It is in my nature to be incredibly picky when it comes to teachers of spiritual subjects: there are so many self-proclaimed gurus, cults of personality, and experts who proclaim their way is the only correct one. It is rare to find a teacher like Frater RC who is an expert in the field and humble, not exhibiting any of the traits that turn me away from most teachers. In the HMS, Frater RC provides a curriculum of magic independent of any magical orders and teaches in an incredibly skillful manner as one who has great experience as a practitioner, while also approaching topics with objectivity from a scholastic lens. Anyone interested in starting the practice of magic or improving themselves as a magician would benefit highly from the curriculum offered at Hermetic Mystery School."

"Thank you so much for all of the information specific to me and my requests. I was really impressed and grateful for you and your attention to my details. You were very professional and to the point. You answered all of my questions and provided me with very valuable resources that I am using. I am so happy to have books to turn to and read for more self knowledge and spiritual growth. I am also very happy to have the techniques to let certain things go that I would have not though of before. Frater RC is a trustworthy source and keeps the information shared private. I will definitely refer others to you for help, guidance, and insight. Thank you again!"

“Definitely recommended regardless of whether you're a beginner or an adept. ...engaging, charming and well spoken...Frater RC taught a few classes [in Belfast] on Kabbalah and Hermeticism and made the material easy to digest. ...Witty, polite and always had a ready ear to discuss music, art, theology and other disciplines in relation to his own practice.”

“Frater R.C. explores various nuances of Hermetic initiation that are profoundly insightful; the analysis of the purpose of initiation is invaluable and is as relevant to the adept as well as the neophyte.”
