W. E. Butler

He returned to England and joined Dion Fortune's Society of the Inner Light in 1925, where he continued to train and participate until sometime toward the end of World War II.

By 1973, the Helios Course in the Practical Qabalah had gained popularity and was spun off to form the Servants of the Light, for which Ernest was the first Director of Studies.

He remained director of studies until shortly before his death, when he passed that responsibility to Dolores Ashcroft-Nowicki.
