  • Aidan A. Kelly (born October 22, 1940) is an American academic, poet and influential figure in the Neopagan religion of Wicca. Having developed his own branch of the faith, the New Reformed Orthodox Order of the Golden Dawn, during the 1960s, he was also initiated into other traditions, including Gardnerianism and Feri, in subsequent decades. Alongside this, he was also an important figure in the creation of the Covenant of the Goddess, an organisation designed to protect the civil rights of members of the Wiccan community in the United States. He has also published academic work studying the early development of Gardnerian Wiccan liturgy, primarily through his controversial 1991 book Crafting the Art of Magic. Kelly became an organizer and leader in the Neo-Pagan community while studying for a master's degree in creative writing at San Francisco State University in 1967 and 1968. A friend asked him to write a ritual for a Witch sabbat as part of an art seminar. This project led to the founding in October 1967 of the New Reformed Orthodox Order of the Golden Dawn (NROOGD), which evolved into a Wiccan coven in 1969. Although humorously named after the famous Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, Kelly's coven was otherwise unrelated to that group. The NROOGD tradition co-founded by Kelly in 1969 continues to operate in California and has covens in other states, Canada and the UK. As one of the co-founders of the Covenant of the Goddess (CoG), Kelly helped write the organization's charter and bylaws in 1975. The organization's charter was filed with the State of California on October 31, 1975, incorporating CoG as a non-profit religious corporation. From CoG's inception in 1975 until 1977, Kelly served on its national board of directors. (en)
  • Aidan Kelly es un poeta cofundador de la New Reformed Orthodox Order of the Golden Dawn, orden asociada a la brujería aparecida en San Francisco, en 1968. Fue uno de los críticos de la tradición esotérica que fundó Gerald Gardner y que luego desembocó en los inicios de la corriente espiritual denominada Wicca. Kelly y sus compañeros de clase recrearon un sabbat para un proyecto de clase, basándose en varias fuentes, incluyendo el poema de Robert Graves "The White Goddess". El grupo que resultó de aquella experiencia se denominó a sí mismo con un cierto sentido del humor después como la famosa Orden Hermética de la Aurora Dorada, aunque no tuvieran contacto alguno entre ellas. Mientras conseguía el título de Doctorado en Filosofía a mediados de los 70, Kelly se convirtió también en el cofundador de . Al mismo tiempo él hacía públicamente uso de documentos escritos por Gerald Gardner, creyendo fervientemente que podría reconstruir a partir de ellos una historia con bases firmes de como Gardner había fundado la Wicca moderna. A finales de los 70, Kelly volvió a la Iglesia católica, pero dejó la práctica para ser iniciado en la Wicca Gardneriana a finales de los 80 de la mano de en California. En 1991 quiso publicar un libro basado en su temprana búsqueda titulado, "Crafting the Art of Magic", pero al final la editorial no lo llevó a cabo. No fue hasta el 2007 que el libro fue reeditado en una edición revisada titulada "Inventing Witchcraft". (es)
