Aleister Crowley and the Hidden God to Assume
Introduction THIS BOOK contains a critical study of Aleister Crowley's system of sexual magick and its affmities with the ancient Tantric rites of Kali, the dark goddess of blood and dissolution represented in Crowley's Cult as the Scarlet Woman. It is an attempt to supply a key to the work of an Adept whose vast knowledge of occultism was unsurpassed by any previous Western authority. I have emphasized the similarity between Crowley's Cult of Thelema and Tantra because the present wave of interest in the Tantric System makes it probable that readers will be able to assess more fully the importance of Crowley's contribution to occultism in general and to the Magical Path in particular. As a result of many years' research into obscure phases of occultism I have evolved a method of dream control for contacting extra-terrestrial and non-human entities; this forms the substance of Chapters Six and Seven. This method is described in relation to the mysteries of Kundalini, the supreme magical power symbolized by the sleeping Fire Snake at the base of the spine which, after its awakening, activates the subtle power-zones in the human body. Aleister Crowley, Austin Spare, Dion Fortune and the German occultist Eugen Grosche were among the first Adepts in the West to teach the use of the psycho-sexual energies, the Ophidian Current that informed the most ancient arcana of Africa and the Far East. Although it was Crowley who first integrated this current with the Westem Esoteric Tradition, this was not achieved without some doubtful interpretations of oriental symbolism. -

Azazel Alephomen meanings and connections associated with this Thelemic Texts 4 word and how they may relate to our work. by Fr. L.N.N. Abrahadabra is derivative of the word Stewardship 5 “abracadabra,” whose most commonly cited by Fr. Ash root is from the Aramaic avra kehdabra History of the Tarot 6 meaning, “I create as I speak.” The change in spelling is in recognition of the tenets of by Fr. Eparisteros Thelema by investing the name of the Egyptian Events Calendar 10 god Hadit/Had in the central position. This word is referenced three times in the third chapter of the Book of the Law, the chapter attributed unto the god of force and fire, Ra-Hoor-Khuit. Interestingly enough, it appears in both the Copyright © 2006 opening and the closing lines of that chapter, a significant position for such a magickal word of Abrahadabra Encampment, O.T.O., power. -

Revista Nures no 12 – Maio/Agosto 2009 – http://www.pucsp.br/revistanures Núcleo de Estudos Religião e Sociedade – Pontifícia Universidade Católica – SP ISSN 1981-156X Aleister Crowley e a contracultura Vitor Cei Santos Mestrando em Letras Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo Resumo O objetivo deste artigo é discutir a doutrina do Novo Aeon de Aleister Crowley, refletindo sobre sua constituição histórica, seus valores e conseqüências para a sociedade pós- moderna. O ocultista inglês foi um escritor mítico e controvertido, poeta da liberdade irrestrita e da vontade como máxima soberana, além de defensor do uso de sexo e drogas para fins mágicos. O seu discurso esotérico impulsionou trajetórias existenciais de grande força contestatória, tornando-o guru da contracultura. Palavras-chave: Contracultura. Pós-modernidade. Abstract The main objective of this article is discussing Crowley´s doctrine of the New Aeon, thinking about its historical constitution, its values and consequences to the postmodernism. The occultist was a mythical and controversial writer, poet of the unrestricted freedom and of the will as a maxim sovereign, besides being a defender of the use of sex and drugs to magical purposes. His esoteric discourse stimulated existential trajectories of great refutable power, making him the counterculture guru. Keywords: Counterculture. Postmodernism. Aleister Crowley (1875 -1947), mago, poeta e escritor ocultista inglês, foi um dos principais ícones da contracultura. A sua doutrina do Novo Aeon, indo ao encontro da necessidade de contestação dos rebeldes, ganhou força nos movimentos contraculturais da década de 1960 que anunciavam a era astrológica de Aquário, pela qual os jovens ansiavam e tentavam materializar em comunidades alternativas. -

Scintillations in Mauve
starfire2420nov.qxd 20/11/11 11:05 pm Page 9 Scintillations in Mauve An Introduction to the Work of Kenneth Grant enneth Grant was one of the most influential occultists of the 20th century. He leaves behind a substantial and formidable K body of work which will be explored and developed over the years to come. What follows here is an introductory survey of his work — a basis for deeper, more substantial consideration of his work in the future. Born in Essex in 1924, Kenneth Grant developed an intense interest in the occult from an early age, as well as a life-long devotion to Buddhism and other oriental religions. He remarked somewhere in his writings that Eastern mysticism was his first love — an indication not only of how well read he was, but more importantly perhaps his heightened sense of the immanent. Grant relates in Outside the Circles of Time how he had come across a copy of Magick in Theory and Practice — at Zwemmers, in the Charing Cross Road — in the late 1930s or early 1940s. At this period he had also discovered Austin Osman Spare’s The Book of Pleasure at Michael Houghton’s Atlantis Bookshop in Museum Street. After immersing himself in the works of Crowley, he finally managed to make contact with him in 1944, writing to the address provided in The Book of Thoth which had just been published. Visiting him several times, Grant subsequently stayed with him at ‘Netherwood’ in Hastings in 1945, immersed in Magick. Many years later, Grant wrote a memoir of this period of his life, Remembering Aleister Crowley. -

Kenneth Anger: Where the Bodies Are Buried - Esquire 10-01-14 10:49
Kenneth Anger: Where The Bodies Are Buried - Esquire 10-01-14 10:49 Kenneth Anger: Where The Bodies Are Buried - Esquire Photo by Brian Butler On a recent warm afternoon in Los Angeles, Kenneth Anger was taking a walk in the Hollywood Forever Cemetery. Anger, 86, is the US’s most celebrated underground film-maker, named as a major influence by directors as disparate as Martin Scorsese, David Lynch and John Waters. He is also the elemental spirit whose life draws a connecting line between some of the most intriguing figures of 20th century arts and Bohemia: the occultist Aleister Crowley, Jean Cocteau, the sexologist Alfred Kinsey, Anaïs Nin, The Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin. Anger has always liked visiting cemeteries. “They’re peaceful,” he says. “They’d better be...” And Hollywood Forever, formerly the Hollywood Memorial Park Cemetery, has a personal significance. It is the resting place of a number of famous Hollywood stars and stands behind the original Paramount lot; in fact, the studios were built on a part of the old cemetery. Anger is an authority on old Hollywood. He is the author of two volumes of Hollywood Babylon, http://www.esquire.co.uk/culture/features/5483/kenneth-anger/ Page 1 of 19 Kenneth Anger: Where The Bodies Are Buried - Esquire 10-01-14 10:49 the classic account of Tinseltown’s most infamous scandals, from the silent era up to the Fifties. A number of the cast are buried here. Rudolph Valentino, whom Anger considers the quintessential Hollywood star (“he had a short, tragic life [dead at 31] and left a big legend”) is interred in a crypt in the Cathedral Mausoleum. -
