The Probationer is an uncut gemstone of the A∴A∴ which will never become a valuable sapphire, or a brilliant. The core of the entire Superior’s work lies in this intactness. His job is not to abrade that magnificent stone, on the contrary. He is there to taint it so much that he can redeem it cheaply, on the market of gods and stars.
The Vampire and his emissary, Kundry, are the being of the shadow, not just any shadow, but the Aspirant’s shadow. He will cunningly wait for the Neophyte to strengthen and widen his horizons; he does it so openly for the Vampire. Growing with his subtle body, his head will indeed be in the Heavens and his feet far on the Earth, but how large will the shadow be of such a huge structure?
Implementation and integration form the supporting pillars of our inner temple, without which any serious spiritual progress remains futile. Even the Neophyte must carefully manage their personal work and, above all, their relationship with household members during louder invocations. Yet, for a Zelator, the question of integrating spiritual experiences into daily life becomes particularly crucial.
The principles examined within the practice of Asana naturally extend to Pranayama as well. The fundamental objective is to foster complete awareness in every action, including those that originate from the unconscious mind.
We are all Students here. Your current grade represents your present time zone, while mine reflects the time zone of my “currency.” Sometimes, when it is day for you, it is night for me. Yet the same sun that is now rising for me has already set for you. The same light, simply passing through a different time zone. The grades in our noble Order are just that: different time zones, nothing more.
The Zelator, in this narrative, will encounter many signs that can help clarify his program, serving as both a source of motivation and a guiding beacon. A very important element is the indication of Dionysus’ dual birth—from his mother, as much as from Zeus.
The body itself is an essential instrument in the orchestration of Will. Is not the entire Universe the body of God, its limbs woven from constellations, its stars as radiant suns, its cells as molecules and consciousnesses, its vast voids—both known and unknown—moving together as one harmonious whole?
In our program, the practice of sex magick occupies a distinct and significant role. This prominence arises not solely from its provocative title, but also, in large part, from the weight of personal projections and idealized notions we attach to both the concept and the act. The tantric act, the operation of sex magick, and … Continue reading Sex Magick
Here are some rare and truly amazing photographs capturing the enigmatic life of Aleister Crowley. Marvel at the intimate moments with his wife Rose and their time together at the mystical Boleskine House.

The Great White Brotherhood, when mentioned, evokes thoughts of a group of supernatural beings with extraordinary powers who exert influence over religions, spiritual organizations, and the very fabric of civilization.
My ability for Lucid Dreaming and Astral Projection has always been a gift I possessed since childhood. However, I must admit that even in this fantastic realm, as a child, I managed to maintain a scientific observation and approach.
The Neophyte is indeed the vehicle of his star, as much as the body is the instrument of his Angel.
Trance is an outpost toward stars. An aspirant must understand its nature, which is about all, natural, and easy for every soul. There is no mysticism in this occurrence, just a divine combination of biological and natural processes of the brain. Using methods that requires hours or years just shows that we do not understand the very mechanism of trance, as well as the mechanism of our mind.
The A∴A∴ is certainly not, neither will ever be a Thelemic order, but a pan-æonic, all-pervading, omnipresent. Like cosmic void, in which there is neither morning nor dusk, its spreading is not framed by the loom of time nor space. Moreover, its movement is always as its nature is everywhere. The Dawn of the New Æon will never experience its afternoon as long as we proclaim it as New.
Interesting things happen when you observe the darkness, in the same way as when we stares in the mirror, the essence is to look with the peripheral view and let everything be covered by a dim cobweb, which is a purely physiological effect.
Vibration is a signpost to the stars. It does not carry energy in itself; on the contrary, it carries consciousness and serves only to direct energy, which in that case, unmistakably runs toward the field of action.
At the stage metaphorically implied by this story, the Aspirant is the antagonist; he does not stand for the light or have a path to redemption. Yet, he still possesses the thread that Ariadne cunningly left to Theseus – a mechanism that helps to undo his knot.
Comments on LIBER LIBERI VEL LAPIDIS LAZULI
All the peculiarity of this place lies in one straightforward fact, though the Aspirant refuses to accept it, which is that he learns a lot more from the Student than from his own Superior.
In the life of the Neophyte, there is a special place in the exploration of visions, but he must not equate it with the experience of the astral projection or the projection of the body of light.
Draw the Sign of the Beast above your head. First, a full circle (shout NUIT), then a dot (say HADIT), and finally, a cross (vibrate RA-HOOR-KHUIT).
Draw a heptagram (with mano in fica) starting from the second B (see the A∴A∴ sigil).
