About the Order
The “Tagma Ermeas TrisMegistos” works on three levels: Hearers, Pronaos, and Temple.
***
The Hearer level has one degree.
The Pronaos level has two degrees:
The purpose of the first two levels is for the Member to come in contact with their Psyche/Emotions, so that their unconscious Psychic/Emotional Aspects are recognized every time they are mobilized and not perceived as Spiritual experiences.
***
The Temple level has four Pythagorean Initiatory degrees:
The Temple's Rites attract the Divine Energy of the Archetypes through the movements and actions that take place in its Rituals.
***
The “Tagma Ermeas TrisMegistos” provides to its Members (always for free) booklets which contain a substantial amount of instructions and meditations.
In the beginning (Hearer level) the instructions are not that extensive, but they slowly grow.
***
The Hearer level has one degree.
The Pronaos level has two degrees:

The workings of the “Tagma Ermeas TrisMegistos” are as follows
In full development the Order works in two ways:
I)
With a physical space exclusively dedicated to the Order.
There is a consecrated Temple, all the Initiations are performed and, if the Celestial Brotherhood gives permission, the specific branch receives Jurisdiction.
II)
Without a physical space exclusively dedicated to the Order.
There is no permanent Temple and the branch cannot receive Jurisdiction. The subject matter of Initiations is examined on a case-by-case basis.
***
Without full development, the Order works in two ways:
I)
In small groups.
There are Exercises & Meditations and Rituals adapted for a small number of people, who work in a calm and quiet space, without any outside interferences; this space does not have to be permanently dedicated to this purpose.
II)
At an individual level.
There are Exercises & Meditations and Rituals that can work on an individual level in a quiet space at the Member's home.
In the case of a development which is not full, the Members belong to a “TrisMegistos Tetragon” (this is the name of the organized groups in T::E::T::M::), which is situated in another city or country and works in a normal way (performs Rites) and the Receptions and Initiations are executed in the Jurisdiction to which the “TrisMegistos Tetragon” belongs.
***
The “Tagma Ermeas TrisMegistos” wants to have “TrisMegistos Tetragons” and Members in every part of the World.
