AHA! Die Zeitschrift 1 März 2011 Die Redaktion • Editorial Liebe Leser! AHA Und MAGICKAL OBSERVER Sind Nun, Im 23 AHA! Die Zeitschrift 1 März 2011 Die Redaktion • Editorial Liebe Leser! AHA und MAGICKAL OBSERVER sind nun, im 23. AHA Jahrgang, untrennbar zusammengewachsen. Wir, die Redakteure, freuen uns darüber natürlich sehr. Auch, daß unser e-zine mittlerweile in einer Gesamtauflage von fast 25.000 Heften erschienen ist, macht uns stolz. Allein im letzten Jahr sind unsere Hefte fast 10.000 mal heruntergeladen worden. Das war für uns Grund genug, über ein paar zeitgemäße Veränderungen nachzudenken. Zum Einen geben wir unsere Hefte künftig unter dem bekannten Titel AHA – ZEITSCHRIFT heraus, und zwar zunächst mit zwei Serienausgaben pro Jahr, jeweils im Frühjahr und im Herbst. Dazu kommen in unregelmäßigen Abständen besondere Themenhefte, die im Umfang wesentlich erweitert werden. So planen wir für den Sommer 2011 die Herausgabe eines informativen Thelema- Themenheftes, das keine Fragen mehr offen läßt. Wer gerne grundlegende Artikel zu diesem Thema veröffentlichen möchte, kann uns gern seine Textvorschläge senden. Eine weitere Änderung betrifft den Inhalt unserer Serienhefte. Wir möchten in Zukunft gern etwas den Themenhorizont erweitern. Wir möchten Tagesgeschehen, Politik, Soziales, Kultur, Literatur, Musik usw. gern thematisch einbinden (z.B. mit Kolumnen, Buch- und CD Vorstellungen, Filmkritiken usw.), und zwar im Hinblick auf die thelemitische Willensethik. Wo ist Thelema drin, auch wenn es vielleicht gar nicht drauf steht? Wir freuen uns über Eure Themenvorschläge dazu. Thelema und Magick ist ja nicht nur Crowley und Gnostische Messe, Thelema als Ethik ist auch für moderne Gesellschaften wichtig, und wir möchten gern Blicke in die Zukunft tun, um dadurch unseren Horizont zu erweitern. Natürlich werden wir uns auch weiter klassischen Magick- Themen widmen, wie z.B. dem Thoth Tarot, in dieser Serie besprechen wir heute die wichtige Karte Ausgleichung. Auch an Bord: ein heiterer Kabbalah-Text von Fürst Claas, einige Buchvorstellungen und ein schöner Text von M.R.Motta aus den Siebzigern. -Olaf Francke- Chefredakteur & Herausgeber • Inhalt dieser Ausgabe: Seite 2: Editorial - Die Redaktion: Editorial, Inhaltsangabe, V.i.S.d.P.

Die Zeitschrift 2 März 2011 Cinti Serpente - Olaf Francke - Tja. Da sitz ich nun so rum und sinniere. Über Gott und die Welt; naja, weniger über Ersteren, eher über Letztere. Erstaunlich, was einem da so durch den Kopf weht, wenn man einfach mal so "befreit von der Gier nach Ergebnis" drauflos denkt... Dieser Artikel erhebt keinerlei Anspruch auf Sinnhaftigkeit, Vollständigkeit und Unterhaltungswert jenseits von Dschungelcamp-Niveau. Also, wer tiefgreifende Erkenntnisse im Sinne wissenschaftlicher Forschung erwartet, ist hier völlig verkehrt. Ich bin ja einer von diesen Typen, die es nicht nachlassen können, sich ständig Gedanken über Thelema zu machen. Und ich geb' auch noch mein Geld dafür aus, das AHA MAGAZIN und die Plattform agape-thelema.de zu publizieren. Schön doof, könnte man meinen. Aber was soll's, Thelema ist wichtig und ich gehöre nunmal zu der Clique Unverbesserlicher, die ernsthaft annehmen, Thelema als Willensethik sei ein durchaus tragfähiges Konzept für menschliches Zusammenleben. Das Problem ist nur: Thelema macht einsam. Oh, sicher: wenn wir hier irgendwelche neuapostolischen Weisheiten und adrette Bibelverschen verteilen würden, wenn wir schön gefällig daherreden und das Blaue vom Himmel herunterlügen würden, dann hätten wir ganz viele Facebook-Freunde und vielleicht sogar ein eigenes Beicht- und Vergebungs-App. Aber mal ehrlich. Wer will das schon? Da ist mir Thelema lieber. Es ist aufrichtig, wahrhaftig, nicht so geschichtsklitterisch-verschwurbelt wie christlicher Mythos oder Scientology-Geblah oder Man versucht, eine Präsidentschaftskandidatur von muslimisches Gemurmel. Aleister Crowley zu forcieren, wenigstens Bundeskanzler (2013) soll er werden. Ok, Crowley ist tot, aber das hindert In letzter Zeit hört man immer weniger vom sog. die Leute nicht daran, laut zu werden. Was dem 93Current, abgesehen von Gevatter LonMilo DuQuette [1], Amerikaner noch ganz gut gelungen ist, nämlich eine der auf seinem Youtube Channel gern mal eine Ode an einigermaßen witzige Website zu kreieren, die humorvoll, BABALON zum Besten gibt. eben typisch amerikanisch, Aleister Crowley als Präsidentschaftskandidaten vorschlägt, gerät in der deutschen "Adaption" zur billigen Farce. Aus ac2012.com wird ac2012de.wordpress.com, und die angestrebte US- Präsidentschaftskandidatur 2012 wird irgendwo im Text beiläufig umgemünzt zur Kandidatur für die Bundestagswahl 2013. Der "Urheber" (oder sagt man: Verursacher?) des deutschen Klons hat sich nichteinmal die Mühe gemacht, den amerikanischen Humor zu verstehen. Mit etwas Hauptschul-Englisch werden Teile der Originalseite übersetzt, egal, ob es Sinn macht, oder nicht. Es macht einen Unterschied, ob ein Amerikaner aus Portland schreibt: "We realize that Aleister Crowley is dead. And British." oder ob ein Deutscher aus dem Schwabenländle meint: "Wir wissen, daß Aleister Crowley tot ist und Engländer." Der Deutsche versteht einfach den Wortwitz nicht. Und so wird, mangels intelligenter Masse, aus einer umfangreichen Website ein Blog-Klon mit Subdomain, drei Beiträgen und vier Kommentaren. Es bleibt fraglich, ob der deutsche Crowleyanist auch nur eines der angebotenen T-Shirts verkaufen wird [3], der Oh ja, in USA haben sie beides: Country und Western. :-) Amerikaner wird sicherlich ein paar Hemden oder eben "666-Weihnachssocken" loswerden. In Deutschland, dem Ein weiteres High-Light thelemitischer Aktionskunst ist die Land der rationalen Parteienwähler ist AC for President Kampagne "ac2012", die in USA mit tatkräftiger einfach nicht witzig; im Amerika, wo man emotional wählt Unterstützung der Ulktruppe Red State Update begann und damit sich selbst Ausdruck verschafft, ist die und nun auch von den Spaßguerilla des OTO-Stuttgart Kampagne ein echter Brüller, gut genug, um jede Party nach Deutschland verschleppt wurde [2]. aufzuheitern. AHA! Die Zeitschrift 3 März 2011 Den Vogel abgeschossen hat dann (natürlich!) ein US Sowohl die Kampagne von Thiebes als auch das Video mag Amerikaner namens Joseph Thiebes (der Schöpfer der man als "Spasseken" abtun, als kleine Aufheiterung, witzig, "Crowley-for-President" Kampagne) mit einem Video, das nicht weiter ernstzunehmen. Gut und schön. Aber bitte – er in seinem Youtube Channel publiziert. Es ist betitelt mit das kann doch wohl nicht alles sein?!? "Greetings from Europe" und zeigt etwas mehr als ein Dutzend größtenteils biertrinkender Leutchen aus Paris, Haben wir an Thelema in Deutschland derart Amsterdam, Stuttgart, Dortmund, Berlin, Kopenhagen, versagt, dass es nur noch ein Kneipenwitz ist? Oslo und Trondheim, die mit eher geringem Elan, dafür aber äußerst vielstimmig "Do what thou wilt..." intonieren Inzwischen ist Thelema auch bei der nordischen in einer Art und Weise, die im direkten Vergleich jeder Hartmetallfraktion angekommen, das neue Album von Aufführung einer Kindergartengruppe unterliegt. Die Dimmu Borgir ("Abrahadabra" 2010) und viele Werke der Freunde aus Trondheim sind sich nichteinmal zu schade, Band Therion sprechen diesbezüglich eine deutliche eines ihrer Kinder hier Verschen aufsagen zu lassen, deren Sprache. Der Album-Titel von Dimmu bezieht sich direkt Tragweite es nicht im Ansatz begreifen kann. Das ist auf das Liber Legis, während Therion (gegründet als Sekten-Gehabe in Reinkultur. Liebe Leute! Wenn Ihr Euch "Blitzkrieg", später rebooted als "Meghatherion") sich selbst zum Obst machen wollt, das sei Euch gegönnt. Aber traditionell mit den Werken der Magick befasst. laßt doch wenigstens Eure Kinder da raus! Aber was soll's Auch in einigen Filmen lassen sich thelemitische Spuren – Wer solchen Mist verzapft, der ist offensichtlich gegen finden, am einfachsten in Enki Bilals "Immortel" (von der jede Form der Vernunft immun. Telema Film Production, France), aber selbst Filme wie "Finding Nemo" enthalten thelemitische Gedankenanstöße Sicher, Thelema ist auch Humor, ist Lachen, ist Spaß.

  • Introduction to Lunar Thelema.Pdf
    TTeemmppllee OOrrddeerr TTeeiittaannaass Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law. I introduce all of you to a fascinating new occult tradition, developed out of many different branches of the very ancient Tree of the Sacred Wisdom, and I will endeavor here to expound its intricacies. We approach Thelema from an entirely new perspective, but one which is born of four things: potent magical lineages wedded into one, tremendous unification and harmonization of various existing Thelemic traditions, genuine magical intervention, and a unique new doctrinal perspective. First: potent magical lineages welded into one. One among us of the new Lunar-Yonic tradition of Thelema not only knew Alex Sanders, King of Witches, very personally, but he also received from the Witch-King many magical gifts, a tremendous magical inheritance 1 obviously to be expected from such real intimacy with such an amazing magical personage. As for myself, you know my story so I need not rehash it. But I am magically related to and inspired by the greatest of Scarlet Women, Lea Hirsig. Our movement, small and seemingly insignificant as it is, brings together these two historically great magical lineages, into a magical machine of some interest. Second, our movement, the Scarlet tradition of Thelema, or Lunar Thelema, based in the Temple Order Teitanas, is actually an amalgamation of all Thelemic traditions. We accept as inspiration the writings of Marcelo Ramos Motta. We embrace the wisdom of Grady McMurtry. We devotedly cherish the keys of doctrine, and the pearls without price, handed down to us by Kenneth Grant.

  • YI JING of Fu Xi, King Wen and the Duke of Zhou
    THE YI JING Of Fu Xi, King Wen and the Duke of Zhou Commented by Aleister Crowley Paraphrased From the James Legge translation As found in the “Chinese Equinox” with additional notes by Marcelo Motta Edited and appended with Crowley‟s Tarot attributions and added notes from the Book of Thoth, 777 and other sources including the writings of C.F. Russell by Paul Joseph Rovelli Also including two lessons on the Yi Jing drawn from lecture notes prepared by The Master Therion A.‟.A.‟. Publication in Class B Imprimatur N. Frater A.‟.A.‟. All comments in Class C EDITORIAL NOTE By Marcelo Motta Our acquaintance with the Yi Jing dates from first finding it mentioned in Book Four Part III, the section on Divination, where A.C. expresses a clear preference for it over other systems as being more flexible, therefore more complete. We bought the Richard Wilhelm translation, with its shallow Jung introduction, but never liked it much. Eventually, on a visit to Mr. Germer, he showed us his James Legge edition, to which he had lovingly attached typewritten reproductions of A.C.‟s commentaries to the Hexagrams. We requested his permission to copy the commentaries. Presently we obtained the Legge edition and found that, although not as flamboyant as Wilhelm‟s, it somehow spoke more clearly to us. We carefully glued A.C.‟s notes to it, in faithful copy of our Instructor‟s device. To this day we have the book, whence we have transcribed the notes for the benefit of our readers. Mr. Germer always cast the Yi before making what he considered an important decision.

  • Marcelo Ramos Motta Carta a Um Macon.Pdf
    Carta A Um Maçon Por Marcelo Ramos Motta Texto Integral Rio de Janeiro, 9 de julho de 1963. Caro Dr. G.: Faze o que tu queres há de ser tudo da Lei. Li, com maior prazer, a entrevista concedida ao Diário de Notícias, através da qual o Grande Oriente do Brasil manifesta à nação a sua intenção de, finalmente, fazer com que a Maçonaria venha a ocupar na vida brasileira o papel que lhe cabe e sempre lhe coube desde a Independência -- que, como todos sabemos, foi feita por mações. Relembrei nessa ocasião minha conversa com o senhor, e as nossas palavras de despedida, nas quais buscou o senhor gentilmente trazer à minha atenção o fato de que (na sua opinião) a Igreja Católica Romana é uma boa introdução à vida adulta para crianças. Eu lhe disse então: "Mas a Maçonaria é infinitamente melhor", e aproveito esta oportunidade para repetir e ampliar estas palavras. Eu não quis discutir a validade ou falta de validade da Igreja Romana como campo de treino para crianças, porque não é assunto que se possa, propriamente, discutir. É assunto que deve -- repito, deve -- ser pesquisado por todo homem consciencioso e responsável, principalmente por maçon de alto grau e no Brasil, onde essa Igreja teve tanta influência na formação psíquica do povo -- com os resultados que estamos vend o no presente. Para esta pesquisa, vitalmente necessária a todos os maçons neste momento de transição, é necessário uma análise cuidadosa da evidência espalhada pelas obras de muitos pesquisadores imparciais e fidedignos; e isto não pode ser resumido numa breve discussão.

  • LETTER to a BRAZILIAN MASON UNEXPURGATED Marcelo Ramos Motta
    LETTER TO A BRAZILIAN MASON UNEXPURGATED Marcelo Ramos Motta Rio de Janeiro, 9 July 1963 e.v. Dear Dr.G.: Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law. I read with pleasure in the news that Brazilian Masonry has finally decided to take once more an active role in the affairs of this nation. I remembered then my conversation with you, and our parting, when you remarked that in your opinion the Roman Church was a good introduction to adult life for children. I told you then: "Perhaps, but Masonry is infinitely better"; and I take this opportunity to repeat and enlarge that statement. I did not wish at the time to discuss the validity or lack of validity of the Roman Church as a training ground for children. One cannot discuss this subject. It is a subject that must - I repeat, must - be researched by every responsible individual, particularly a high grade Mason, and particularly in Brazil, where that church had so much influence in the psychological makeup of the people - with the results that we see at present. For such a research, vitally important at this point, a careful analysis of evidence scattered in the works of many impartial and reputable observers is essential - an analysis that cannot be made in a conversation or summed up in an argument. I know the facts; you did not, at the time; assertions by me, though based on facts, would have seemed to you biased and unfair; the more so because you, naturally, suspect me and my intentions - Thelemites are not better liked or trusted at present than the Gnostics and Essenes were in their day.

  • LIBER AL Vel LEGIS Sub Figura CCXX As Delivered by XCIII = 418 to DCLXVI
    LIBER AL VEL LEGIS SUB FIGURÂ CCXX AS DELIVERED BY XCIII = 418 TO DCLXVI A∴A∴ Publication in Class A. ~ The Commentaries of AL ~ 1. Chapter I Being the core of the Equinox Vol. V no. 1 by Motta INTRODUCTION As all those interested in the A\ A\must know, the Order alternates Five Years of Speech with Five Years of Silence. The last published Number of THE EQUINOX was Vol. III, No. vi. Lay bibliophiles must not waste time seeking for Vol. IV, which was a Volume of Silence. Readers must not, under any circumstances, take this present publication of the Commentaries too seriously. The Publication is in Classes A, B and C, which means, "in whiter words": Class A: These are Utterances from above the Abyss, from Initiates of the Collegium Summum, of which must not be changed even the style of a letter. Only the original text of AL and The Comment, signed Ankh-f-n-khonsu, are in this Class here. (Exceptions, such as quotes from other Holy Books, are duly noted.) Such texts are in bold type. (The weak in intellect, the automatic rebel, and even some earnest seeker may ask: "Why must one not change even the style of a letter of such texts?" The answer is simply that even the style of a letter has meaning in them. It is not a matter of Respect for Authority. It is a matter of keeping the records straight, lest the Utterance of a Master become smeared by the Confusion of a Follower, or several Followers, a thing which, unless we mistake, has happened all too often in the past.) Class B: These are utterances of High Initiates of the A\ A\, or of people recognized as High Initiates by the A\ A\, considered of sufficient value to be published under the aegis of the Order.

  • Liber CCXXXI a Personal Research
    LIBER CCXXXI A Personal Research with Notes and a Commentary By Marcelo Ramos Motta INTRODUCTION Although Liber CCXXXI is in Class A, it seems not to have been given much attention by students; or, if it has, this is the first public commentary upon it. In 1969 the Researcher had reached, albeit imperfectly, the Grade of Babe of the Abyss without ever having made a systematic study of Liber O; consequently, without having investigated the Astral Plane. It may seem strange to the average person that anyone could claim such an exalted Grade without having undergone the preliminary basic training concerned. However, this person had had previous astral experiences in sufficient quantity and (more important) of sufficient quality to be advanced beyond Neophyte. In 1969, however, he felt impelled to —brush up“ on his past shortcomings. For a variety of reasons he had avoided astral traveling until then: one of the reasons being that he had suffered a serious magickal wound through negligence of 666‘s injunction to always banish people wearing religious garb, particularly Christian. This wound had kept him vulnerable to several years after, and healed only through continuous execution of Liber XXV sever times daily for several years, to say nothing of continuous aspiration and vigilance. In 1969, as we were saying, the Researcher felt sufficiently recovered from the wound to complete that particular part of the Tasks of the Grades. It must be understood that the Grades are seldom reached in full at any one time: usually one reaches enough to go onto the Next Step, and relies upon recapitulation in successive lives to perfect the work previously done.

Liber Aleph é considerado por Crowley como um comentário sobre o Livro da Lei. A princípio, Liber Aleph é uma carta ao Filho Mágicko de Crowley, Frater Achad. Essa é uma carta resposta a um diário de Frater Achad. Mas quem foi Frater Achad? O Filho Mágicko de Crowley, Frater Achad — Charles Stansfeld Jones — foi a prova viva de que O Livro do Lei emanou de uma Inteligência præter-humana que usou Crowley como um foco para sua influência. Por outro lado, Achad parece também ter sido um exemplo clássico do tipo de insanidade que toma conta de um indivíduo que se vincula a um Juramento Mágicko além do seu Grau. Frater Achad fez o Juramento de um Mestre do Templo 8°=3 A\A\, ou seja, fez o voto para interpretar tudo o que ocorresse com ele como um trato particular de Deus com sua alma, em Vancouver B.C., em 21 de junho de 1916 E.V.

  • Poder E Autoridade Por Aleister Crowley
    1 Poder e Autoridade PODER E AUTORIDADEi ii por Aleister Crowley Cara Soror:1 Faze o que tu queres deverá ser o todo da Lei. Muito obrigado pela sua última carta. Eu não esperava menos. Tão logo alguém assume um cargo de autoridade, mesmo em uma escala muito pequena, seus problemas começam em uma escala muito maior.2 Imagine você, se puder, tudo aquilo que passei neste último quarto de século ou mais. Meus subordinados estão sempre me pedindo por ascensão na Ordem; eles acham que somente se fossem membros do 266º grau tudo no jardim seria maravilhoso. Eles acham que apenas se possuíssem os segredos do 148º grau seriam capazes de realizar todos aqueles milagres que atualmente escapam de seu alcance. Esses pobres idiotas! Eles não compreendem a diferença entre Poder e Autoridade. Eles não entendem que existem dois tipos de graus, completamente diferentes. Por exemplo, na teoria da Igreja de Roma um bispo é uma pessoa à qual foi conferido o poder mágico de ordenar sacerdotes. Ele pode escolher uma pessoa totalmente indigna para tal ordenação, isso não faz diferença; e o sacerdote, por mais indigno que possa ser, tem apenas que seguir a fórmula correta que realiza o milagre da Missa, para que aquele milagre seja realizado. Isto é porque na Igreja nós estamos lidando com uma qualificação religiosa em oposição à qualificação mágica ou científica. Se a Royal Society3 elegesse um sapateiro, como poderia fazê-lo, isso não investiria o Novo Companheiro com o poder de determinação de um ponto de ebulição, ou de realizar a leitura de um Vernier.
