Phyllis Seckler

Phyllis Evalina Seckler (1917 - 2004), also known as Soror Meral, was a IXth degree member of Ordo Templi Orientis, and a student of Jane Wolfe, herself a student of Aleister Crowley. Sr. Meral was Master of 418 Lodge of O.T.O. from its inception in 1979 through 2004; founder of the College of Thelema; and co-founder, with James Eshelman, of the Temple of Thelema. She led both organizations until her death in 2004. Prior to her death, she also warranted the founding of the College of Thelema of Northern California as an autonomous continuation of her work, and the Temple of the Silver Star (the initiatory Order within the College of Thelema of Northern California.) She was editor of "In the Continuum", the journal of the College of Thelema, for nearly 25 years. For a brief period in the 1970s, she was married to Grady McMurtry, the third "Outer Head of the Order" of the O.T.O. after Crowley and Karl Germer.
