777 and Other Qabalistic Writings of Aleister Crowley. Magick. Occult. Thelema

777 and Other Qabalistic Writings of Aleister Crowley. Magick. Occult. Thelema

 "777 and Other Qabalistic Writings of Aleister Crowley" is a useful book of correspondences.

A unique collection of Qabalistic texts that includes Gematria, 777, and Sepher Sephiroth.

Gematria provides essential explanations of theoretical and practical Qabalistic number analysis and philosophy. “An Essay in Number,” also included, provides invaluable insights into key numbers as well as techniques and safeguards for practical magical work. Gematria was first published in The Equinox, vol. 1. no. 5.

777 itself contains, in concise tabulated form, an overview of symbolism of the major world religions, as well as the system of correspondence of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. In short, it is a complete magical and philosophical dictionary—a key to all religion and practical occultism—an amazing work whose value has been recognized through many editions since its first appearance in 1909 and subsequent enlargement in 1955.

The third text in this collection is Sepher Sephiroth, a unique dictionary listing hundreds of Hebrew words arranged by numerical value. It was compiled jointly by Aleister Crowley and Allan Bennett and first appeared in The Equinox, vol. 1, no. 8.

The Dark Lord. H.P. Lovecraft, Kenneth Grant and the Typhonian Tradition in Magic. Peter Levenda

The Dark Lord. H.P. Lovecraft, Kenneth Grant and the Typhonian Tradition in Magic. Peter Levenda

 I'm keeping with a H.P. Lovecraft theme and reading "The Dark Lord" by Peter Levenda.

One of the most famous - yet least understood - manifestations of Thelemic thought has been the works of Kenneth Grant, the British occultist and one-time intimate of Aleister Crowley, who discovered a hidden world within the primary source materials of Crowley's Aeon of Horus. Using complementary texts from such disparate authors as H.P. Lovecraft, Jack Parsons, Austin Osman Spare, and Charles Stansfeld Jones ("Frater Achad"), Grant formulated a system of magic that expanded upon that delineated in the rituals of the OTO: a system that included elements of Tantra, of Voudon, and in particular that of the Schlangekraft recension of the Necronomicon, all woven together in a dark tapestry of power and illumination.

The Dark Lord follows the themes in the writings of Kenneth Grant, H.P. Lovecraft, and the Necronomicon, uncovering further meanings of the concepts of the famous writers of the Left Hand Path. It is for Thelemites, as well as lovers of the Lovecraft Mythos in all its forms, and for those who find the rituals of classical ceremonial magic inadequate for the New Aeon.

Traveling through the worlds of religion, literature, and the occult, Peter Levenda takes his readers on a deeply fascinating exploration on magic, evil, and The Dark Lord as he investigates of one of the most neglected theses in the history of modern occultism: the nature of the Typhonian Current and its relationship to Aleister Crowley's Thelema and H.P. Lovecraft's Necronomicon.

Necronomicon. Grimoire. Simon. Peter Levenda. H.P. Lovecraft. Cthulhu Mythos

Necronomicon. Grimoire. Simon. Peter Levenda. H.P. Lovecraft. Cthulhu Mythos

 I'm keeping with a H.P. Lovecraft theme and reading the "Necronomicon"

"This is the testimony of all that I have seen, and all that I have learned. . . . For this is the Book of the Dead, the Book of the Black Earth, that I have writ down at the peril of my life..."

The classic and controversial grimoire—a book of magic, spells, and rituals, ready to be incorporated into your life

Since its initial publication in 1977, there has been a lot of ink spilled on the subject of the Necronomicon. Some have derided it as a clumsy hoax, while others have praised it as a powerful spell book. As the decades have passed, more information has come to light both on the book's origins and discovery, and on the information contained within its pages. Regardless of its origins, the Necronomicon has been found to contain formulae for spiritual transformation consistent with some of the most ancient mystical processes in the world—processes that were not public knowledge when the book was first published, processes that involve communion with the stars.

Despite the controversy, the first edition sold out before it was published—and it has never been out of print in the decades since then. If this book or the arcane practices that it claims to illuminate have ever piqued your interest, then wait no longer, and discover the truths that the Necronomicon has in store for you and the impact that it can have on your life.

 I'm enjoying "Lectures of the Ancient and Primitive Rite of Freemasonry" by John Yarker.

John Yarker provides a valuable resource for the lectures and catechisms of the Ancient and Primitive Rite of Freemasonry. Lectures of the Chapter, Senate, and Council, according to the forms of the Ancient and Primitive Rite, but embracing all Systems of High Grade Masonry.
