Brand New/Fine. The Companionship of the Rainbow Bridge was an amazing flower of the Aquarian Spirit, its roots in the fertile soil of the 1960s. It was founded in 1977 and ran with a couple of breaks until 1994. It was described as an experimental ritual drama group and made no pretensions to be a Magical Order. Nonetheless, it certainly developed a magical dimension that provided opportunities for creative self-expression and wonderful, self-transcending experiences. It has left a treasure house of over forty beautiful rituals that were written, produced and performed during the life of the Companionship. This book presents twenty-three of them to inspire a wider audience. The Rainbow Bridge was Apollonian in character, with an emphasis on beauty of language and use of music in rituals, and courtesy and generosity in all interactions between Companions. The introductory section of the book describes the high ideals that formed its foundations and the general principles of its ethos and organisation. A generous photographic section shows the symbolic weapons, officers’ robes and Temple furniture. It has left a treasure house of over forty beautiful rituals that were written, produced and performed during the life of the Group. Twenty-three of the rituals are presented in this book, organised in five groups. One group consists of seven Rainbow Colour rituals, each one prefaced by a beautiful illustration of its essence by the photographer and artist, Ruth Bayer.
