Do you guys know if the books by Rosemary Clark are good? I'm working throuth them and I was wondering if they are... compatible with the Per Ankh. So like.
If I leanr Ritual "A" (as a example.) It will be done basically the same way as Per Ankh's ritual "A". I don't want to learn something and then have to re-learn it.

The only specific Rite that Per Ankh has for its shemsu/Temple members is the Daily Rite
I have not taken the time to do much research/readings in to Rosemary Clark, but on a quick internet search, and using my own criteria for what would qualify as a reliable resource (usually texts from university publishers like Oxford, or from reputable Egyptologists/Near Eastern/African Studies, especially those who have earned PhD's in the related fields), and my own conclusion would be that although she may have some interesting and colourful things to say... it probably is blended with hermeticism and other mystic schools of thought. Not necessarily a bad thing if you're reading for pleasure, but for Kemetic practice, KTR in particular, it wouldn't meet the academic criteria. Enjoy the books, but I'd look at it with a grain of natron  
Per Ankh puts a high value on academic/scholarly texts.
Senebty! (Good health to you!)
