Nature Worship An Account of Phallic Faiths and Practices Ancient and Modern by Hargrave Jennigs

Publication: 1891 Privately Printed First Edition

Hargrave Jennings (1817-890) was a British Freemason, Rosicrucian, author on occultism and esotericism, and amateur student of comparative religion. In several voluminous works, Jennings developed the theory that the origin of all religion is to be sought in phallic worship of the Sun and fire, which he described as “phallism.”
