Manifest Thy Glory. NOTOCON. 2011. Ordo Templi Orientis. O.T.O.

I'm Enjoying "Manifest Thy Glory"

Manifest Thy Gloryoffers a selection of papers from the eighth biennial National Ordo Templi Orientis Conference (NOTOCON) of the United States Grand Lodge of O.T.O., held in the Valley of Detroit, Michigan, in 2011 EV. The papers cover diverse topics including the Holy Guardian Angel, talismans in magick, spatial orientation in ritual, and other magical methods; occult history and biography, including the Stele of Revealing and Ida Craddock; promulgation of Thelema through publishing and podcasts; textual analysis from Catullus to “Liber Trigrammaton;” a touching reminiscence from the incomparable Lon Milo DuQuette; and even space, the final frontier. Other highlights include a street guide to Thelemic historical sites in Detroit, and the address given by U.S. National Grand Master Sabazius. They represent some of best modern practical and scholarly work on Ordo Templi Orientis, Thelema, and the magick of Aleister Crowley.

The first NOTOCON conference took place in 1997 EV in Akron, Ohio, and has since been held on alternate years in different cities around the United States. Manifest Thy Gloryis the third collection of papers from the national conference to be made available, following the inaugural volume Beauty & Strengthfor the 2007 EV conference.

Ordo Templi Orientis is an international fraternal order of men and women devoted to the pursuit of individual liberty, the study of magick, and the promulgation of the Law of Thelema. Founded in the early twentieth century, it has been shaped by such leading lights as Carl Kellner, Theodor Reuss, Aleister Crowley, Karl Germer and Grady Louis McMurtry.

Q.B.L. Qabalah. Tree of Life. Frater Achad. Thelema. Occult

Q.B.L. Qabalah. Tree of Life. Frater Achad. Occult

Q.B.L. Qabalah. Tree of Life. Frater Achad. Thelema. Occult

I'm enjoying "Q.B.L."- Frater Achad's classic book on the Qabalah/Tree of Life.

This newer edition includes an introduction by Lon Milo DuQuette

Q.B.L.is a masterpiece of Qabalah and controversy. Its importance to the world of modern occult literature can be measured not only by its value as a remarkable, understandable textbook of the fundamental principles of Qabalah, but also by the way it offers us a rare glimpse into the heart and mind of a brilliant and sincere seeker of wisdom and truth. Q.B.L. is a unique work in both Qabalah and Thelemic circles.

In the world of the Qabalah, Frater Achad revealed revolutionary new principles that caused students of the Qabalah to reexamine and thus deepen their knowledge of the Tree of Life. In Thelemic circles, Aleister Crowley named Frater Achad his magical heir and Achad was fully expected to lead the cause of Thelemic Magick after Crowley's deathuntil publication of this book caused a rift between the two and Crowley began to distance himself from Achad. This is a rare and valuable book, both for its insight and circumstances. True understanding of the Qabalah and its benefit in magical practice is clearly described, and the information contained is both practical and revelatory. The circumstances surrounding it--Frater Achad's falling out with Crowley and eventual descent into apparent insanity--prove a valuable lesson and warning for individual seekers and those associated with established mystery schools.

Sexuality, Magic and Perversion. Francis King

Sexuality, Magic and Perversion. Francis King. Order Temple Orientis. OTO. Aleister Crowley

I'm enjoying "Sexuality, Magic and Perversion" by Francis King...

Sexuality, Magic & Perversion by Francis King is a controversial, revelatory, highly recommended volume of original research that investigates sexuality in religions and traditions all over the globe, from fertility cults and tantricism to Islamic mysticism and Crowleyan sex magick. A tantalizing study of the mystical aspect of sex, heavily researched.

Sexuality, Magic, and Perversion surveys such outre subjects as sex magic, left-hand Tantrism, and the initiates of Aleister Crowley’s Order of Oriental Templars. This fascinating and highly readable book also discusses the role of magical fantasy in contemporary pornography. Appendices cover obscurities such as Ralph Chubb’s homoerotic mysticism and the women bishops of the Mariavite Church in Poland.

Liber Null. Psychonaut. Peter Carroll. Chaos Magic

I'm enjoying the Weiser Classics re-release of "Liber Null and Psychonaut: The Practice of Chaos Magic" by Peter Carroll. It was first published over 35 years ago.

“The most original and probably the most important writer on Magick since Aleister Crowley."—Robert Anton Wilson, author of the Prometheus Rising and other works

Peter Carroll’s classic work has been profound influence on the Western magical world and on the practice of chaos magick in particular. In Liber Null and Psychonaut, Carroll presents an approach to the practice of magic that draws on the foundations of shamanism and animism, as well as that found in the Greek magical papyri, the occult works of Eliphas Levi and Aleister Crowley, and the esoteric meditative practices of classical India and China. Also very much at work in the text are 20th century scientific ideas of quantum physics and chaos theory.

The result is a profoundly original work of magical studies that also includes a selection of extremely powerful rituals and exercises for committed occultists with instructions that lead the reader through new concepts and practices to achieve Carroll’s definition of magic itself: the raising of the whole individual in perfect balance to the power of infinity.

This Weiser Classics edition is a thoroughly revised republication of Liber Null and Psychonaut, first published by Weiser in 1987, and includes a new foreword by Ronald Hutton, a leading authority on modern witchcraft and paganism.

Jack Parsons. Babalon Workings. Thelema. Magick. Occult

Jack Parsons. Babalon Workings. Thelema. Magick. Occult. Scarlet Woman

I'm enjoying "Jack Parsons' Babalon Workings." It's nice to have all the Babalon material together in one convenient little book.

Jack Parsons is the famed rocket scientist behind NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and a rocketing pioneer. Brought to life in Ridley Scott’s “Strange Angel” series and the movie “Babylon”, he was an amazing soul.

He was a student of the Great Beast, Aleister Crowley, and mentor to the founder of Scientology, L Ron Hubbard.
At the end of the second World War and at the height of his power, he conducted an occult ritual to bring the Whore of Babylon from the apocalyptic Book of Revelations.

Read his notes of the ritual conducted in the desert with L Ron Hubbard and the revelations received.
If you’re a student of the secret history only discovered by an enlightened few or an initiate of the hidden arts looking to recreate the ritual, this book is for you.

Read Jack Parson’s most personal thoughts, his preparations to bring about the new era, and his most intimate correspondence with the scarlet woman.
