Well, I asked my friend, and he's a "senior" member of the Golden Dawn, and his response was simple. "Not to my knowledge."
That's my thoughts too, I've never heard of that before (not that it couldn't be true) but I'd figure after the amount of Hermetic material I've read I would have encountered that thought at least once if it was "the norm". Maybe we are just uninformed! Aha
On that forum there they seem to relate it to being a Pythagorean, but Hermeticism, I think, pre-dates Pythagoras.
