A Magical Education. Talks on Magic and Occultism. John Michael Greer

I'm enjoying "A Magical Education" by John Michael Greer

An extraordinary exploration of the forgotten history of the esoteric and its unexpected possibilities in our time.

In these talks, written and presented to a variety of audiences between 2001 and 2010, John Michael Greer explores the forgotten history of occultism and its unexpected possibilities in our time.

From practical methods of occult training to the politics and metapolitics of magic, from the shadowy world of Victorian sex magic to the alchemy of initiatory ritual, from the complex origins of modern Neopaganism to the approaching twilight of Neopagan pop culture and what comes next, the talks collected in this book seek to inspire curiosity and reflection, not to set out an ironclad case for this or that point of view.

This book is an extraordinary insight into the life and work of a working magician and occultist.

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.

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.

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.

The Aleister Crowley Manual. Thelemic Magick for Modern Times. Marco Visconti

I'm enjoying the clarity and insightful instruction provided by Marco Visconti in "The Aleister Crowley Manual."

This is a no-nonsense, practical guide to working the magick of Aleister Crowley in modern times.

Marco Visconti has taught Aleister Crowley's Magick to hundreds of aspirants, proving to himself and others its transmutative powers. This book brings together the effective techniques and practices from those lessons. We all live very busy lives in increasingly small spaces, but this book shows that to practice magick you don’t need fancy tools or robes or marbles halls. Magick is truly for everyone, because all you need to practice it is a will set in stone.

Each chapter in this manual is a lesson, which will add a new tool to your magical arsenal:

the nature of the Body of Light
what Prana is and how to harness it
the 4 Hermetic Elements that make up the foundations of the Magical Pyramid
the Quintessence
the Pentagram
Hexagram rituals
the Astral Light invoked through the Middle Pillar

The benefits gained from bringing Magick into your life are manifold. You will gain a deeper understanding of your role in the universe, the ability to communicate with the Other, and the wisdom that comes from such relationships. Overall these practices offer a new and deeper sense of awareness of your own role in the universe.
