Dion Fortune Books in Order
Dion Fortune is a renowned British occultist and author, whose pseudonym is inspired by her family motto "Deo, non fortuna" (Latin for "by God, not fate"). As a prolific writer, she began crafting novels and short stories in 1919 that explore the realms of magic and mysticism, including The Demon Lover, The Winged Bull, The Goat-Foot God, and The Secrets of Dr. Taverner. Her collection of short stories, The Secrets of Dr. Taverner, draws from her experiences with Theodore Moriarty. Her novels, The Sea Priestess and Moon Magic, have significantly influenced the Wiccan community, particularly Doreen Valiente. Fortune also penned influential non-fiction works, such as The Cosmic Doctrine, The Mystical Qabalah, and Psychic Self Defence, offering lucid insights into magical subjects and the art of self-protection.
