Solar Lodge was an esoteric order founded in 1962 and disbanded in 1972. The Lodge was set in motion by Ray Burlingame (Frater Aquarius), member of the Astrum Argenteum, and a IX° initiate of the OTO, when he initiated Georgina "Jean" Brayton (Soror Capricornus) in 1962.
In 1965, Aquarius instructed Capricornus to initiate other people and then he died. Capricornus proceeded to initiate others and expanded Solar Lodge in the 1960s to include over 50 members. The Lodge eventually ceased to be viable in 1972 when it turned from spiritual endeavors to materialism.
Solar Lodge was primarily an expression of the Astrum Argenteum and is not considered to have been a branch of the OTO by the "Caliphate" or legally-recognized OTO.
