Dear Julian Community members,

Since June Burke made her transition in 2005, we, Larry Scheer and Camille Albrecht, have served on the advisory board to Saul. As you may know, Camille and her husband, Richard Grescowle along with Larry and his wife, Linda Scheer,  are part of the line of succession set up by June and Julian for the guardianship of the Julian Teachings. Camille and Larry recently accepted the honor and responsibility of co-leadership of the Julian Teachings Organization. We decided to share the leadership in order to participate in a manner that will allow us to keep balance within our lives at this time.

We’d like you to know a bit about each of us, how we got started with metaphysics, June and Julian, and what we do today.

Sincerely,

Camille Albrecht and Larry Scheer

From Larry Scheer

Hello, Community Members. Since June Burke made her transition in 2005, I have served on the advisory board to Saul Srour. As you may know, my wife Linda and I are part of the line of succession set up by June and Julian for the guardianship of the Julian Teachings. I recently accepted the honor and responsibility of co-leadership of the Julian Teachings organization with Camille Albrecht. Camille and I decided to share the leader­ship in order to participate in a manner that will allow us to keep balance within our lives at this time.

I would like to share a bit about me; how I got started with metaphysics, June and Julian; and what I do today.

I began my studies in metaphysics when I was 19 while in the United States Navy Sub­marine Service. My shipmate and life-long friend, Archie Mulvena, introduced me to metaphysics and to a wonderful psychic many of you know, Georgia Hughes. I was a regular meditator and member of a Theosophical study group in Charleston, South Caro­lina. One of my first practices in metaphysical studies, which I would go on to master, was the Tarot. It was Georgia Hughes who introduced me to June Burke. Georgia, Archie, June, and Julian became some of the most influential friends in my life.

My involvement with June Burke and Julian began in 1978 when I was 21. After getting a life reading from Julian in August of 1978, I would attend every Julian workshop I could. Whenever I had leave from my duties in the Navy, I would travel to upstate New York to attend workshops. A strong bond of friendship was formed between June, Julian and myself.

After leaving the Naval service in 1980, I started a career in the high tech industry in Sili­con Valley, CA. Before leaving the east coast for California, I asked June if she and Julian would consider giving workshops in California. June said she would think about it.

In the fall of 1980 I joined Sam Holland’s meditation group. I continued to attend Julian workshops in upstate New York as often as I could. In the fall of 1981, June agreed to come to California after which, Julian started teaching workshops on a regular basis on the West Coast.

Archie and I hosted June for the first few years of her visits to the West Coast. In 1982 the first Transition Energy (TE) class was given in our living room. In 1982 I met Linda Schroeder, who would become my dearest friend and wife. Linda and I bought a home in San Jose in 1984. We were married by June Burke in 1986. Linda and I would host June when she traveled to California to do classes and workshops from 1994 through 2004.

I studied all of the formal Julian Teachings. I completed the Transition Energy classes, Development classes, and Practical magus classes taught by June and Julian. I studied Julian’s Mystical magus classes, delivered by Sam Holland, for seven years and attended the magus classes in California taught by Julian.

I was instrumental in forming the Redwood Circle group which began with studies of the TE classes, plus healing arts and druid teachings presented by Julian to the group. In 1994 the Redwood Circle group became bonded as the West Coast Development Class group. I am the leader and area teacher of the Development class studies. In 1997 Linda and I began teaching the Practical magus classes in San Jose.

I was a board member of the Foundation for the Recovery of Ancient Wisdom (FRAW) and later its president. The FRAW sponsored and produced the Julian workshops and classes given on the West Coast.

As a Julian community leader in California, I teach the Development Classes, Self Awareness Series, and Practical magus classes. I have certified seven new teachers to teach the Self Awareness Series. I also teach Tarot classes.

My book, Tarot; A Bridge on the Road of Life, was published in the fall of 2012.This book is a culmination of decades of research and study. Much of what I learned about the Tarot from Julian is in this book.

I am a practitioner of the art of Tai Chi Chuan and Bagua Zhang. I have studied under Sid Fontana, a community member, for over 25 years and continue my practice. Sid and his understanding of Tai Chi have been a great influence on my life and have helped me maintain balance and perspective.

I continue to work full time in the high tech industry of Silicon Valley as a software engi­neer specializing in build and release management. Through all of this I still find time for fishing, playing guitar, and dancing and traveling with my lovely wife, Linda.
