Four Officers - Aeonic Change
-
It's come up a few times that the Equinox of the Gods is another image of the temple officers rotating position.
I don't think all four(?) have ever been named together. Would someone please tell me their titles? I don't have the first idea where to look.

In the G.D. Neophyte ritual, the officers were:
Hierophant - Osiris
Hiereus - Horus
Hegemon - Maat
Kerux - Anubis
Dadouchos - Thoum-Ash-Neith
Stolistes - AuramoothPromote each of the gods up one spot and you'll have what they should be in the present Aeon (I would presume the last two would stay the same since they are personifications of fire and water so, in the instance of the Kerux, I'd guess that another god steps into the dance). Also note that, in the G.D. ritual, Isis sits on the dais as representative of the Second Order so one can assume that she was the Hierophant during her Aeon when all of the officers would have been one spot lower than in the list above.
If you want to look deeper, the Ciceros's "Self-Initiation Into The Golden Dawn Tradition" is where I found the most detailed analysis of the G.D. ritual.
