The New Reformed Orthodox Order of the Golden Dawn (abbreviated NROOGD) is a Wiccan organization/tradition/denomination that has little or nothing to do with the original Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. According to one of the founders of NROOGD, Aidan Kelly and his former spouse Alta Picchi Kelly, the name was chosen as a way to screen out would-be members lacking senses of humor (personal communication to Isaac Bonewits). Bonewits considers NROOGD to be the quintessential (and probably the first) "California Eclectic" Wiccan tradition, near the "liberal/heterodox" end of his Wiccan spectrum of "orthodoxy/heterodoxy."
