Beschreibung:
Fortune moved to Glastonbury in 1923 and formed a pilgrim centre known as the 'Chalice Orchard Club' along with a temple dedicated to the 'Mysteries of lsis' in West London known as the 'Belfry'. During her life, and since, she has received a large following. Many of her books are still read by occultists/neo-Pagans. Just after the World War II she was struck down with leukaemia and died at the age of 54. She is buried in Glastonbury, Somerset.
Dion Fortune was drawn again and again to Glastonbury. In Glastonbury -- Avalon of the Heart, she writes of her love affair with Glastonbury as "one of the secret green roads to the soul," providing as background the time honored legends of Joseph of Arimathaea, the Grail, and King Arthur. Her description remains one of the most evocative and poignant accounts of this" holiest earthe in England."
