[[Societas Rosicruciana in Anglia]] (Rosicrucian Society of England), or SRIA, is a [[Rosicrucian]] [[esoteric Christianity|esoteric Christian]] order formed by [[Robert Wentworth Little]] in 1865.{{sfnp|King|1989|p=28}} Members are confirmed from the ranks of subscribing [[Master Mason]]s{{sfnp|King|1989|p=28}} of a [[Grand Lodge]] in amity with [[United Grand Lodge of England]]. The structure and grades of this order were derived from the 18th-century Order of the Golden and Rosy Cross. It later became the grade system used in the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn.{{sfnp|Gilbert|1986}}

The [[Hermetic Brotherhood of Luxor]] was an [[Initiation#Religious and spiritual|initiatic]] [[occultism|occult]] organization that first became public in late 1894, although according to an official document of the order it began its work in 1870.{{sfnp|Godwin|Chanel|Deveney|1995|pp=92-97}} The Order's teachings drew heavily from the magico-sexual theories of [[Paschal Beverly Randolph]], who influenced later groups such as Ordo Templi Orientis, although it is not clear whether or not Randolph himself was actually a member of the Order.{{sfnp|Godwin|Chanel|Deveney|1995|p=44}}

The [[Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn]] has been credited with a vast revival of occult literature and practices and was founded in 1887 or 1888 by [[William Wynn Westcott]], [[Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers]] and [[William Robert Woodman]]. The teachings of the Order include [[ceremonial magic]], [[Enochian magic]], [[Christian mysticism]], [[Hermetic Qabalah|Qabalah]], [[Hermeticism]], the [[paganism]] of [[ancient Egypt]], [[theurgy]], and [[alchemy]].{{efn|{{harvp|Smoley|Kinney|2006|pp=102–103}}: "Founded in 1888, the Golden Dawn lasted a mere twelve years before it was shattered by personal conflicts. At its height it probably had no more than a hundred members. Yet its influence on magic and esoteric thought in the English-speaking world would be hard to overestimate."}}

The Brotherhood of Myriam (Fratellanza di Myriam) is an Italian esoteric organization founded by [[Giuliano Kremmerz]] in 1899, blending [[Hermeticism]] with therapeutic practices and mystical traditions, rooted in [[Western esotericism]]. Its philosophy emphasizes spiritual healing, the study of ancient texts, and magical science.<ref>{{cite book |last=Zoccatelli |first=PierLuigi |editor1-last=Lewis |editor1-first=James R. |editor2-last=Tøllefsen |editor2-first=Jesper Aagaard |title=The Brill Handbook of New Religions in Europe |chapter=New Religious Movements in Italy |publisher=Brill |location=Leiden-Boston |year=2012 |pages=309 |quote=Among the groups inspired by the Italian esoteric legacy is the Brotherhood of Myriam, which is linked to the Kremmerzian tradition.}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last=Zoccatelli |first=PierLuigi |title=L'ermetismo kremmerziano |url=https://cesnur.com/gli-ordini-martinisti-e-lermetismo-kremmerziano/lermetismo-kremmerziano/ |website=CESNUR |publisher=Center for Studies on New Religions |language=it |access-date=2025-05-05 |quote=La Fratellanza di Myriam è tra i gruppi che conservano la tradizione iniziatica kremmerziana, con un’enfasi sulle pratiche terapeutiche e teurgiche proprie dell’esoterismo italiano.}}</ref>
