The Heirophant "An official expounder ofsacred mysteries or religious cere- monies,esp. in ancient Greece; an initiating or presiding priest" - OED. I generally use it in the "initiating priest/ess" context (CM heritage,that). Those who hold the power *and authority* to initiate others into our particular Trad, are hierophants when they actually exercise that power. Most of usare explicitlyoathbound to ensurethat thecandidate is a worthy person, properly prepared to receive what we are about to confer,and that the rite of adoption/initiation is correctly done according to Trad standards. Those Trads who've dispensed with oaths still, implicitly,expect something rather similar. When I consider acandidate for initiation,I first look tosee whether I have a 'proper person' according the expectations of my Art. Next I look to see whether the Lady's Initiation rests upon them. Lastly, I look to see that s/he understands what s/he is about to promise, and has the skills necessary to carry it out (the gumption to stand by his/her oath is part of 'proper person', IMO). While the marks ARE plain to see,speculation by the uninitiated notwithstanding <g>, all three ARE judgement calls on my part. Then again, ANY situation touching upon my Oath requires a judgement call on my part. At1st Degree,Alexandriantradition permitsme toextend benefit of the doubt in cases where the marks are recent enough that they shine but dimly (or where the candidate's history leads one to suspect s/he may not feel bound to stand by what s/he swears to). Gardnerian tradition does not. Then again, H'Alexandrian tradition requires that no benefit of the doubt be granted at 2nd Degree, whereas Gardnerian tradition again contradicts. In either case, a 2nd of either Trad has been put to the test and found fully appropriate to the Trad in the judgement of his/her heirophant, we simply do it at different degrees. (That's the theory,anyway, and why we come down so hard on those who f*ck-initiate.) 1948
