THREE SONNETS 33 Full many a glorious morning have I seen, Flatter the mountain tops with sovereign eye, Kissing with golden face the meadows green; Gilding pale streams with heavenly alchemy: Anon permit the basest clouds to ride, With ugly rack on his celestial face, And from the forlorn world his visage hide Stealing unseen to west with this disgrace: Even so my sun one early morn did shine, With all triumphant splendour on my brow, But out alack, he was but one hour mine, The region cloud hath masked him from me now. Yet him for this, my love no whit disdaineth, Suns of the world may stain, when heaven's sun staineth. 29 When in disgrace with Fortune and men's eyes, I all alone beweep my outcast state, And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries, And look upon my self and curse my fate, Wishing me like to one more rich in hope, Featured like him, like him with friends possessed, Desiring this man's art, and that man' s scope, With what I most enjoy contented least, Yet in these thoughts my self almost despising, Haply I think on thee, and then my state, (Like to the lark at break of day arising From sullen earth) sings hymns at heaven's gate, For thy sweet love remembered such wealth brings, That then I scorn to change my state with kings. 26 Lord of my love, to whom in vassalage Thy merit hath my duty strongly knit; To thee I send this written embassage To witness duty, not to show my wit. Duty so great, which wit so poor as mine May make seem bare, in wanting words to show it; But that I hope some good conceit of thine In thy soul's thought (all naked) will bestow it: Till whatsoever star that guides my moving, Points on me graciously with fair aspect, And puts apparel on my tattered loving, To show me worthy of thy sweet respect, Then may I dare to boast how I do love thee, Till then, not show my head where thou mayst prove me.

  • 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.

  • Liber II - a Mensagem Do Mestre Therion
    1 Liber II - A Mensagem do Mestre Therion Espaço Novo Æon www.thelema.com.br 2 Aleister Crowley A∴A∴ Publicação em Classe E. Espaço Novo Æon www.thelema.com.br 3 Liber II - A Mensagem do Mestre Therion LIBER II A MENSAGEM DO MESTRE THERIONi ii por Aleister Crowley “Faze o que tu queres deverá ser o todo da Lei” “Não há Lei além de Faze o que tu queres” “A palavra da Lei é Θελημα.” Θελημα —Thelema—significa Vontade. A Chave para esta Mensagem é esta palavra-Vontade. O primeiro significado óbvio desta Lei é confirmado pela antítese; “A palavra de Pecado é Restrição”. Novamente: “Tu não tens direito senão fazer tua vontade. Faze isso, e nenhum outro dirá não. Pois vontade pura, desaliviada de propósito, livre da sede de resultado, é toda senda perfeita.” Observe isto cuidadosamente; isso parece sugerir uma teoria de que se todo homem e toda mulher fizessem sua vontade—a verdadeira vontade—não haveria conflitos. “Todo homem e toda mulher é uma estrela”, e cada estrela se move por um caminho designado sem interferência. Há bastante espaço para todos; é apenas a desordem que cria confusão. A partir destas considerações deve ter ficado claro que “Faze o que tu queres” não significa “Faça o que você desejar”. Ela é a apoteose da Liberdade; mas é também o vínculo mais estrito possível. Faze o que tu queres — e então não faça nada mais. Não permita que nada desvie a ti daquela austera e santa tarefa. A Liberdade é absoluta para fazer a tua vontade; mas tente fazer qualquer outra coisa seja qual for, e instantaneamente os obstáculos vão surgir.

  • 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.

  • The Star Ruby Is the Basic Thelemic Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram
    The Star Ruby is the basic Thelemic banishing ritual of the pentagram. The number of the Liber, XXV, is the square of five, and the Pentagram has the red color of Geburah. It is the first official ritual learned by the Probationer to the A.’.A.’.. In contrast to its antecedent the ‘Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram’, it is designed to elevate the Aspirant’s consciousness to the Solar-Phallic energy of the Aeon of Horus. The first step in this effort is to equilibrate the positive and negative energies of the four quarters, which are no longer centered upon the earth but upon Sol, which is also the core of each of our individual natures. The attribution of the Elements to the Four Directions corresponds to the element of the four Cherubs in its antecedent rite and the corresponding fixed signs of the Zodiac. This is primarily an earth-based perspective suitable for the Probationer of the A.’.A.’.. Also, as a ritual of the Aeon of Horus, the Star Ruby stands between the LBR and the Ritual of the Mark of the Beast, Liber V vel Reguli. Just as the former set down the basic format for the Star Ruby, so the latter can be used to interpret some of the symbols and directions. Frater A.L. (1983) provides some important background for this ritual. He reports the first version as being written no later than 1913, when the Book of Lies was first published, and that this modified Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram was modified during the Cephalu period (1920’s).

  • The Complete System of Thelemic Magick
    Thelemic Qabalah Volume I Publication in Class C by Frater Apollonius 4°=7□ ATAT Fable Once upon a time there was a Great Wild Beast whose mighty roar could be heard all over a sleepy kingdom. In this kingdom there were many lovely maidens. Each Maiden lived in a wonderful cottage by a lake or a stream or by the ocean or by an echoing valley. The Children of this kingdom knew no mother or father but rather sought sustenance and comfort in the house of one of the many Maidens. Each Maiden gathered about herself all of the beautiful Children that she came in contact with and taught them by the L.V.X. of Her Soul. Each Maiden could hear the roar of the Great Wild Beast and knew that with each roar, new Children would come seeking sustenance and shelter and knowledge. The maidens would leave on porch lights to guide the children to them for the Kingdom was enveloped in eternal darkness save in the presence of a Maiden. If a Child learned well, they became a Maiden and left the cottage, with a light of their own to build and light a cottage of their own. At intervals, a Great Wild Beast would be born and roar for a time. Each Great Wild Beast, nearing the time of His passing, would teach a Maiden how to roar like them and instruct them to pass the roar on until they heard another Great Wild Beast. One day, the Great Wild Beast died and his roar was not heard in the Kingdom for many a year.
