I dunno if I'd call it a cult exactly, but it's definitely pretentious as hell and full of bullshit.

Here we have some "Egypt is the font of all the world's spirituality" nonsense:

The Egyptian deities are seen as the Old Gods of the Elder Faith, and are worshiped above all others. Isis is venerated as a central figure and She is considered the Creatrix and the Keeper of the Mysteries of the Cauldron.

And here's some cultural appropriation going on:

Julie had a more traditional Witchcraft focus emphasising psychic development, use of Tarot and herbs, and incorporated elements of North and South American magic.

In contrast, Ellen actually placed a greater emphasis on Kabalistic magic and would later publish “The Witches’ Qabalah” amongst a number of other titles.

Self-proclaimed teachers getting prickly at the thought of being expected to, ya know, actually teach is never a good sign, either:

A Seeker must SEEK! The onus is on the Seeker to progress their journey. Teachers do not spoon-feed.

Their recommended books/authors are dodgy as heck, too. It's a lot of your typical neopagan stuff what's full of witch cult conspiracy theory stuff.

At this point, it should be clear that these people are a total waste of time:

Depending on how correspondence progresses, a Teacher may be open to a meeting requested by the Seeker. This may be the first of many meetings in what can be a lengthy meet-and-greet process before a decision is made on acceptance for training. This may take weeks, months or more than a year depending on the individual and where they are in life.

...

The Neophyte phase will last for a minimum of twelve months during which the candidate will be required to follow instruction, read at least three more books on Occult matters, and complete all assigned tasks.

...

There is no entitlement to the privilege of initiation. Those accepted are chosen by Elders whose wisdom is guided by our Gods.

This really is one of those cases where you're going be much better off if you just check out books and videos from fairly reliable people and casually hang out with other people with similar interests. This kind of group can give off the impression that they're genuinely the keepers of some critical wisdom you can't get anywhere else, but I can promise you that they're not. You'll have a much better time watching Dr. Justin Sledge or Dr. Angela Puca and interacting with other people on Witchblr than reading a bunch of dodgy literature in the hopes that these people might admit you into their culturally appropriative social club.
