Temple Degree Structure

Supreme authority in the Temple of Set is held by the Council of Nine, which appoints both the High Priest of Set and the Executive Director. Initiates are Recognized within the Temple according to six degrees, based upon Western Magical tradition and incorporating features from many Black Magical societies. The six degrees are:

Setian First Degree
Adept Second Degree
Priest or Priestess of Set Third Degree
Magister or Magistra Templi Fourth Degree
Magus or Maga Fifth Degree
Ipsissimus or Ipsissima Sixth Degree

Recognition as an Adept constitutes certification by the Temple that one has in fact mastered and successfully applied the essential principles of Black Magic. The Priesthood and higher Degrees are conferred by Set alone, and Recognized by the Temple according to his Will.

The design, care, and operation of the Temple are entrusted by Set to the Priesthood.
