The Open Way is a syncretic American occult periodical of the later 1920s, blending an eclectic esoteric vocabulary — occult, magic, mahatma, brotherhood, with Theosophical and Rosicrucian touches — around a coded initiatory membership that even invokes Oahspe 'Faithist' affiliation and Native-American ceremony. Running alongside the occult matter is a practical program of vegetarianism and drugless, electro-hygienic healing, plus a light New Thought register of 'the silence' and success. Its machine profile flags a 'Shaver/hollow-earth' theme, but that is an anachronistic false positive — the Shaver mystery lay more than a decade in the future. It reads as an eclectic occult-and-healing house organ of the interwar American esoteric scene. Generated by Claude from the periodical's digitized text; a thematic reading, not a bibliographic description. |
