Nomen mysticum
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Nomen Mysticum is the secret name that a member of a mystical secret society is given once they are considered a worthy and confirmed member of a specific mystical order.
Initiation
Usually the secret name is not given to the neophyte directly, but only after the completion of initiation.
The connection between the initiation and the presentation of a secret name is considered a rite of passage by most esoteric orders. It is understood that this process represents the mystery of rebirth (or birth - death - rebirth).
