About the Journal

Lion & Serpent is the official journal of Sekhet-Maat Lodge, O.T.O, published quarterly in Portland, Oregon. The focus of the journal is the publication of work by local membership, including essays, reviews, rituals, poetry, columns, photography, prayers, memoirs, letters, rants, comics, art, or any creative and printable work. Distribution of the hard copy includes Lodge members, subscribers, O.T.O. bodies in the region, U.S. Grand Lodge officers, and storefront locations around Portland. The journal is also published online in the form of PDF files. In the future we may print paperbacks of past volumes or themed anthologies.
