Society Of The Guardians
'The Society of Guardians of Grace, Blessings and Sustenance, more commonly known as The Society of Guardians, the 'Et Custosi Tutelae', or just The Guardians is a magical and Qabalistic order with its headquarters currently based in Australia; having smaller operational groups existing in New Zealand.
Traditionally a small group, limited to 22 members, who are described as "technical mystics", however the Guardians have grown somewhat under Jean de Cabalis' leadership; with an additional temple established in Greece. Although small in comparison to other Order's such as the Golden Dawn, many members of the public benefited from the classes and correspondence courses conducted by the Guardians, before their Mt Eden sanctuary closed down, after the death of Michael Freedman.

If the ligature is found to be loosened in one part, it is only drawn the tighter in another.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
