The Rockefeller Foundation has officially partnered with Beast Philanthropy, an organization run by Jimmy Donaldson, better known as MrBeast. According to a joint press release, the “strategic partnership is designed to meet young people where they are—online—and channel their desire for purpose into meaningful global action.” While many would give no thought to such a partnership, others may find it suspicious and think about the long history of the Rockefeller Foundation and the CIA working together to influence public opinion and conduct psychic experiments on the youth, especially the sexual sort, through the work of Alfred Kinsey, who was inspired by another Beast named Aleister Crowley. What few would consider, however, is how CIA projects like ARTICHOKE, which utilized caffeine, nicotine, and marijuana, mixed with high stress, have essentially become our modern way of life, while projects like MIDNIGHT CLIMAX, involving drugs, sex, and two-way mirrors, play out every day in our homes behind smart devices like televisions. Are we in control of our own thoughts and actions? And if not, how do we combat such mind control? Who is like unto the beast? Tonight, Ryan Gable fills in for Clyde Lewis and talks with Ryder Lee, the host of "Raised by Giants" on YouTube. He is best known for his documentaries, JFK X and A Clockwork Shining. Listen to Ground Zero, M-F from 7-10 pm, pacific time on groundzeroplus.com.

In this episode I am once again joined by Duncan Barford, occult practitioner, counsellor, and author of “Occult Experiments in the Home”. Duncan begins with an analysis of the 2016 film, “A Dark Song”, which he believes is the most accurate depiction of occult practice in cinema. Duncan details the plot, breaks down its depictions of ritual, and shares his own emotional reaction to the film's climax. Duncan then shifts gear and gives a detailed explanation of the infamous Abramelin ritual, a multi-month ritual considered by many to be the most ambitious working a magician can attempt. Duncan gives a survey of the major written accounts of those who have attempted it including Aleister Crowley, Lionel Snell, and William Bloom; reveals why the ritual has such a high failure rate; and shares what he believes is the key to success. Duncan also analyses the esoteric structure of Coleridge's poem “Rime of the Ancient Mariner” and interprets it as a description of the spiritual path, proposes an equivalency between success in the Abramelin and Buddhist stream entry, and reveals why he believes the study of history is an obstacle to magickal success. … Video version: https://www.guruviking.com/podcast/ep336-the-magick-of-abramelin-duncan-barford-3 Also available on Youtube, iTunes, & Spotify – search ‘Guru Viking Podcast'. … Topics include: 00:00 - Intro 01:28 - The Magick of A Dark Song 02:45 - The film 04:41 - The Abramelin Ritual 07:23 - Cinematic depictions of magick 08:04 - Spoiler warnings and the plot 08:24 - Hiring the magician 10:03 - Sophia's motive for the ritual 11:36 - A deep understanding of how ritual works 14:40 - Describing the magickal working 17:04 - Meeting the Holy Guardian Angel 21:01 - The practitioner's journey 25:58 - Characer arcs 30:03 - The key of devotion 33:02 - The esoteric structure of Coleridge's “Rime of the Ancient Mariner” 33:34 - The cycle of insight 38:37 - Crisis, breakthrough, ordeal, union 43:38 - Unsettling themes 44:12 - Interventus Caninus 44:57 - What next after absolution? 45:33 - What is the point of the Abramelin Ritual? 46:46 - Reflecting on the ending of the film 49:39 - Crowley, Snell, Bloom, and Katz - those who attempted the Abramelin 49:54 - Mysterious history of the Abramelin Ritual 52:39 - Recensions of the Abramelin 53:56 - Duncan describes the Abramelin text and ritual 01:00:20 - Why does the Abramelin ritual have such a high failure rate? 01:02:12 - Meeting Lionel Snell 01:04:51 - A tarot reading and why history is an obstacle to real magick 01:06:53 - Daniel Ingram's revision of traditional fire kasina meditation 01:11:00 - Crowley's attempts at the Abramelin ritual 01:14:37 - Other accounts 01:16:40 - William Bloom's attempt 01:20:45 - Secret to success with the Abramelin Ritual 01:24:13 - How to increase the success rate of rituals 01:29:18 - Are you ready to attempt the Abramelin? 01:31:52 - Stream entry and Abramelin 01:34:35 - Duncan reflects on his past claims to attainment 01:37:16 - Questioning pragmatic dharma assumptions and the vogue of stream entry 01:41:00 - Insider vs outsider views 01:42:13 - Does magick really work? 01:43:31 - A story of powerful magickal effects … Watch previous episodes with Duncan Barford: - https://www.guruviking.com/search?q=barford To find our more about Duncan Barford, visit: - https://www.duncanbarford.uk/ … For more interviews, videos, and more visit: - https://www.guruviking.com Music ‘Deva Dasi' by Steve James

The Rockefeller Foundation has officially partnered with Beast Philanthropy, the organization run by Jimmy Donaldson, or MrBeast, the world's so-called #1 creator/influencer. According to a joint press release, the “strategic partnership is designed to meet young people where they are—online—and channel their desire for purpose into meaningful global action.” The partnership intends to promote global development, poverty alleviation, and sustainable impact. Billionaire Les Wexner, named extensively alongside Jeffrey Epstein, also runs a foundation looking to advocate the same goals, with emphasis on LGBT, climate, and racism. Wexner's foundation was not only funded with large sums of money from people like Epstein, but his entire wealth, upon which the foundation is constructed, was built on his being possessed by a demon named dybbuk, which he documents in a 1985 interview. In his own words.Back in the 1940s, the Rockefeller Foundation also financed a man named Alfred Kinsey, a reported homosexual who had a keen interest in sexuality and taboo sexual practices. In fact, Kinsey is considered the founder of the sexual revolution in the United States, just as Magnus Hirschfeld, who ran the world's first trans clinic, was the leader of the same movement in 1920s Germany. Other than his own sexuality, and an interest in pedophiles and sexual contact with children in general, Kinsey was inspired by none other than another Beast named Aleister Crowley, the sexual deviant, who was an agent of British Intelligence as much as Epstein was an agent of Israel-US intelligence. And according to a declassified CIA document, “Foundation Support for Research in the fields of Behavioral Sciences,” the CIA paid the Rockefeller Foundation, among others, large sums of money to conduct research in areas like “parapsychology” and studies on groups of “gifted individuals,” programs that often involved children, for which the television show Stranger Things was inspired in part. In 2024 the U.S. National Security Archive published a document collection highlighting the “CIA and the Behavioral Sciences: Mind Control, Drug Experimentation and MKULTRA,” and behind that researcher was the funneling of money to foundations like Rockefeller. The legacy of these experiments connects to the Kubark Counterintelligence Interrogation report from 1963 which discussed using psychological techniques, including fear, threats, and pain, along with narcotics and coercion, to compel compliance. Considering that drug companies like Eli Lilly played a role in distributing the CIA enough drugs for its experiments, it makes perfect sense how both in the US and UK not only were influencers paid by the government to promote corporate products, but Yale University set out the psychological messaging to coerce people into taking vaccines with threats of “trust the science,” “embarrassment,” “anger,” and “guilt,” while the UK literally employed fear campaigns to “frighten the pants off everyone,” as per Matt Hancock, former health secretary. Cabinet secretary Simon Case replied to that comment with “the fear/guilt factor.”The Tavistock Institute - Foundation is an extension of Magnus Hirschfeld's Institute of Sexual Science today. In 2019 Marcus Evans, one of the foundation's governors, resigned, accusing management of having an “overvalued belief” in the exercise of Gender Identity Development Service. Parents likewise accused the organization of “fast-tracking” young people into changing gender. We can see in all of these cases the a plan to “meet young people where they are—online—and channel their desire for purpose into meaningful global action,” is a recruitment campaign to create “social justice warriors” and “revolutionaries,” or rather what former Soviet journalist Yuri Bezmenov said: demoralize, destabilize, and create ongoing crises that can be normalized to chance the social order. The announcement also comes just a few days before the third (first, second) and most direct Fort Bragg psychological warfare video was released stating how in psy-war, “we are everywhere.” So, how do you fight these invisible enemies?

I denne siste delen følger vi Aleister Crowley gjennom de kaotiske månedene som avslutter hans tid i Berlin. Her møter vi Bertha “Bill” Busch, hans nye skarlagenskvinne, og ser hvordan forholdet deres blandes med økonomisk kollaps, magiske ritualer, kunstambisjoner og stadig farligere politiske strømninger.Crowleys store Berlin-utstilling åpner, dramaet rundt Karl Germer tilspisser seg, og vi blir kjent med kulturpersonligheter som Max Brüning, Ernst Schertel og Ethel Mannin – alt mens Berlin gradvis glir inn i nazismens grep.Til slutt presses Crowley ut av byen, banket opp av brunskjorter og økonomisk ruinert, mens et av hans mest intense kapitler går mot slutten.https://www.patreon.com/taakeprathttps://www.taakeprat.com Hosted on Acast.

In this study we will take a look at the miracles that Yahweh performed on the Egyptians, when Israel was held in bondage, during this period in Exodus. We will see that those miracles were against the Egyptian deities or gods that they worshipped. Moses was the prototype of the Christ or Messiah. More importantly, the nation of Israel saw Moses as a prototype and the Bible record illustrates that point. Moses said: ‘And Yahweh said unto me, they have well spoken that which they have spoken. I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.' (Deut. 18:17-18).In this study I continue in chapter 9 verse 19. Verses 13-35 Seventh Plague HailOnce again I emphasize that these plague were against the Egyptians deities!!!I start in this study reading from Thomas Horn Book ‘The Gods' PDF page 73.Osiris is a VERY well known character in both history and mythology. He plays a prominent role in secret societies and even in our own government. But more than that, I believe he is the central character we need to look at when it comes to understanding the times we live in and what is to come in the near future.For instance, did you know that Osiris is the only other god of antiquity apart from Yahshua that was known as, "The King of kings and Lord of lords?""...he is exceedingly mighty and most terrible in his name 'Osiris'; he endureth for ever and forever in his name of 'Un-nefer.' Homage be to thee, O King of kings, Lord of lords, Ruler of princes, who from the womb of Nut hast ruled the world and the Underworld..."- Excerpt from a Hymn to Osiris in the Book of the DeadOnce again Osiris' symbol is the ankh, which looks remarkably like a cross. One dominant theory is that the "loop" at the top of the ankh represents resurrection - as in the rebirth of the sun. This would seem to go along with the NUMEROUS dying and resurrecting sun gods born on December 25th that are found in the ancient world. And suffice it to say, it is not by chance, coincidence or accident that the Son of Yahweh was crucified on the symbol of the sun god!With that in mind, I feel it is important to note that in Nimrod's incarnation as Osiris, you can truly see a mirror (reversed) image of Yahshua Messiah. Where Yahshua is the Son of Yahweh, the Messiah, Osiris is the exact antithesis. He is the sun god, the false messiah, the ANTI-Christ! This is one of the primary reasons why I believe Christians should have absolutely nothing to do with associating Yahshua Messiah and the date, December 25th. It was NOT Yahshua Messiahs' birthday. It was the birthday of Nimrod/Osiris/Baal/Mithra.In his work, Magick (Book 4), the famed occultist and the self proclaimed "Father of Satanism," Aleister Crowley had this to say concerning Baphomet : "The Devil does not exist. It is a false name invented by the Black Brothers to imply a Unity in their ignorant muddle of dispersions. A devil who had unity would be a God... 'The Devil' is, historically, the God of any people that one personally dislikes... This serpent, SATAN, is not the enemy of Man, but He who made Gods of our race, knowing Good and Evil; He bade 'Know Thyself!' and taught Initiation. He is 'The Devil' of the Book of Thoth, and His emblem is BAPHOMET, the Androgyne who is the hieroglyph of arcane perfection... He is therefore Life, and Love. But moreover his letter is 'ayin,' the Eye, so that he is Light; and his Zodiacal image is Capricornus, that leaping goat whose attribute is Liberty."Have any questions?

Emanuel Swedenborg was an 18th‑century scientist who claimed to travel between heaven, hell, and even other planets. Was he a mystic genius or a dreamer lost in visions? In this episode, we uncover how his strange ideas shaped spiritualism, occultism, and even modern paranormal culture.–––Emanuel Swedenborg: Mystic, Scientist… and Proto‑Occultist?In this episode, we dive into the extraordinary life and afterlife of Emanuel Swedenborg—the Enlightenment thinker who claimed to converse with angels, demons, and spirits from other worlds. His doctrine of “correspondences,” the belief that every physical thing mirrors a deeper spiritual reality, became a cornerstone for mystics who wanted to read the universe as a vast symbolic text.We explore:Swedenborg's visions of the afterlife and cosmic journeysHow his writings influenced Helena Blavatsky, Aleister Crowley, the Fox Sisters, and Daniel Dunglas HomeWhy poets like William Blake and thinkers like Ralph Waldo Emerson drew inspiration from himThe surprising role he played in the Theosophical Society, New Thought movement, and the occult revivalFrom séance parlors to cosmic philosophy, Swedenborg's influence ripples through spiritualism, mysticism, UFO lore, and modern occult culture. If you've ever wondered how Enlightenment science collided with fringe spirituality, this is the episode for you.

VYS0053 | The Mongoose Files - Vayse to Face with Gayle Fidler - Show notes Ever since their childhood days reading the Usborne Book of Ghosts, Hine and Buckley have been obsessing over the mysterious mercurial mammalian Manx marvel - Gef the Talking Mongoose. And finally bringing Gef chat to Vayse is writer, paranormal researcher and selectively supportive spouse to a lard eating champion, Gayle Fidler. In recent years Gayle and her curious collective of cryptid-hunters have made a pilgrimage to the Isle of Man to investigate Gef and immerse themselves in strangeness of his story. Her incredible adventures include some uncanny synchronicities, an unlikely team-up with a movie star, an unexpected connection to Aleister Crowley... and the unpredictable guidance of a certain Dr Allen Greenfield...

Sommeren 1931 står Berlin på randen av økonomisk kollaps, politisk vold og sosial uro — og midt i dette kaoset vandrer Aleister Crowley gjennom byens kafeer, atelierer og nattklubber på jakt etter kjærlighet, kunst og åndelige eksperimenter.I denne tredje delen dykker vi ned i forholdet mellom Crowley og den briljante, men sårbare Hanni Jaeger, hans kunstneriske ambisjoner, de mørke skyggene over Tyskland, og den stadig mer intense sexmagiske og kunstneriske spiralen han befant seg i. Vi følger ham fra iskalde pensjonatrom og tomme bankkontoer til møter med kunsthandleren Alfred Flechtheim, PORZA-miljøet og et Berlin der sex, kunst, fattigdom og politisk ekstremisme smelter sammen.Dette er historien om en by på vei mot avgrunnen — og en okkultist som kanskje, bare kanskje, også leverte hemmeligheter videre til britisk etterretning.https://www.patreon.com/taakeprathttps://www.taakeprat.com Hosted on Acast.

Send us comments, suggestions and ideas here! In this week's episode we explore the final three chapters of Liber ARARITA, an obscure class A holy book from the mystic religion of Thelema which operates as an alchemical tool to reduce the entirety of the universe to a unity with God using Hebrew letters, angel math and creative visualization that is illegal in at least six countries. In the free side of the show we discuss the origins and occult meaning behind the Hebrew letter Yod and its complement in the text Tau. We discuss the Hermetic version of Neti-Neti, the High Priestess of the Tarot and the little dogs of hell.

Carl Abrahamsson, a prominent figure in the realm of occulture, reflects on his journey through the occult underground in a presentation originally written for the Occulture conference in Berlin, 2025. He shares insights from his life, which has been heavily influenced by various artistic and magical movements, as well as notable figures like Aleister Crowley, Anton LaVey, and Genesis P-Orridge. Abrahamsson discusses his experiences with different magical orders, including the Church of Satan and the OTO, and emphasizes the importance of individual intuition and creativity in the practice of magic and culture. He introduces his recent works, including “Meetings with Remarkable Magicians” and “Introduction to Occulture,” highlighting the need for practitioners to articulate their experiences and ideas in ways that academics can understand, thus bridging the gap between esoteric knowledge and mainstream culture. He elaborates on the concept of “occulturation,” the process by which hidden knowledge becomes manifest in culture, and advocates for a focus on individual empowerment and the transformative power of creativity. Abrahamsson also critiques the academic approach to magic, arguing that while it can help validate the field, it often fails to capture the essence of magical practice, which is inherently creative and deeply human. He concludes by asserting the necessity of personal authenticity and the importance of sharing knowledge and inspiration, positing that true magic lies in the continuous unfolding of one's self and the embrace of individual freedom. https://thefenriswolf.substack.com https://anartapart.substack.com https://www.patreon.com/vanessa23carl https://www.carlabrahamsson.com

Send us comments, suggestions and ideas here! In this week's episode we advance to Chapters 3 and 4 of Liber ARARITA, a class A holy book from the religion of Thelema prepared by Aleister Crowley to explain the unexplainable with overengineered religious poetry intended to be paired traditionally with camels and butt sex in the Algerian Desert. While Chapter 3 deals with the quintessential energies on the Tree of Life in their most balanced and recognizable form - Chapter 4 deals with the psychedelic vision of stepping into this wisdom matrix from the first person perspective. In the free side of the show we get carried away exploring the occult meaning of the Hebrew letters Aleph and Resh (the letters that correspond to the chapters we've read so far) and what profound meaning they have when placed together.

Episode 374: Mind Over Magic - The Psychology of Rituals with Richard Kaczynski Episode Description We stand in the most mystical time of the year—the season when the veil between worlds grows gossamer thin. From October 31st through November 2nd, we traverse sacred ground through Halloween, Samhain, All Saints' Day, and Día de los Muertos. In this powerful episode, we shift our focus from the hands-on practice of Reiki to explore the psychology behind ritual and magic itself. Join host Terri Ann Heiman as she welcomes Richard Kaczynski, PhD, author of Mind Over Magic: The Psychology of Rituals, for a fascinating conversation about how our beliefs shape our reality and how understanding the psychological mechanisms behind spiritual practices can help us get the most out of them. Guest Bio Richard Kaczynski is a lifetime student and writer on Western Esotericism and an authority on the life and works of Aleister Crowley. He is the author of Perdurabo: The Life of Aleister Crowley and editor of Crowley's The Sword of Song. Richard holds a PhD in psychology with a minor in statistics, and his doctoral dissertation examined the structure and correlates of metaphysical beliefs. His latest book, Mind Over Magic: The Psychology of Rituals, explores how psychological research can illuminate spiritual practices across all traditions. Key Topics Discussed The Journey from Psychology to Magic •Richard's lifelong interest in alternative spiritualities and how it led him to pursue psychology •The disappointment of not finding a "grand unified theory" in graduate school •How 30 years of research revealed a jigsaw puzzle of psychological insights about spiritual practices •The intersection of social psychology, statistics, and esoteric traditions Childhood Mystical Experiences •Richard's childhood encounter with an unexplainable figure in suburban Detroit •How these experiences are actually common parts of human experience, not aberrations •The importance of normalizing conversations about unexplainable phenomena •How transformative experiences can fundamentally change personality and worldview Pattern Recognition and Discernment •Humans as pattern-seeking creatures (Gestalt psychology) •The concept of "agenticity"—seeing agency or cause behind random events •How this cuts both ways: believers may see patterns that aren't there, while skeptics miss patterns that are •Walking the middle path between accepting everything and rejecting everything •The critical importance of discernment in spiritual practice Defining Magic (with a K) •Why Richard chose to spell it "magick" (following Aleister Crowley's distinction from stage magic) •Crowley's definition: "the science and art of causing change to occur in conformity with Will" •Magic as any intentional act—from casting circles to saying grace before meals •How this broad definition encompasses practices across all spiritual traditions •The science versus the art of magical practice The Power of Mindfulness in Practice •Why being present is essential to getting benefits from any spiritual practice •The danger of going through the motions without true engagement •Examples: meditation while distracted, saying prayers automatically, greeting the sun mindlessly •How mindfulness amplifies the effectiveness of ritual work Group Ritual and Synchronous Behavior •Research on synchronous behavior and its psychological effects •How brainwave patterns synchronize when people engage in activities together •The positive evaluation of others when in sync (drum circles, group recitation, etc.) •The unique benefits of both solitary and group practice •Why the real work ultimately happens in private, individual practice= The Psychological Levers of Ritual •How various ritual elements manipulate psychological mechanisms •The role of special garments, implements (bells, wands, tarot cards), sacred space •Creating the "liminal space" where magic happens •Understanding these levers helps us access transformative states more easily •Science explaining what many practitioners have always known Evolution and Transformation •How ritual practices help us evolve into the best version of ourselves •Breaking free from fixed personality traits through transformative experiences •The importance of going within rather than surface living •Recognizing and breaking repetitive patterns •Raising consciousness creates a ripple effect that touches everyone around us The Modern Metaphysical Community •How the internet and social media have made spiritual communities more accessible •The danger of siloing within specific traditions •The importance of attending conferences and events outside your tradition •The challenge of maintaining brick-and-mortar metaphysical spaces •The growth of metaphysical awareness and openness in recent decades Science Meets Spirituality •How psychology validates spiritual practices without explaining away the mystery •The value of scientific understanding for skeptics •Why we don't need to choose between "woo" and science •Using the scientific method to evaluate your own spiritual work •Understanding enhances practice; it doesn't diminish the magic Key Quotes Richard Kaczynski: "By understanding the role of psychology in the practices that we undertake in our spirituality, we can get the most out of those practices. And to the extent to which our spirituality is aimed at inner transformation, raising our consciousness, becoming the best version of ourselves, we can do that more effectively through that understanding." "You're not stuck being who you are right now. You can actually evolve yourself through these practices, and they're transformative." "I don't claim to explain what happens in that liminal space. It's that liminal space where the magic happens. But these psychological tools give us access to that space and make it easier to get there." Terri Ann Heiman: "We each have the power to go within and facilitate our own transformation, and in doing so, we raise not only our consciousness, but create a ripple effect that touches all those around us."

When we're seeking inner transformation—raising our consciousness and evolving into the best version of ourselves—this understanding becomes essential. It allows us to engage more intentionally and effectively with the rituals and practices that serve our growth. This is especially potent during this sacred season when the veil between worlds is thin and we're more open to receiving messages, signs, and the deeper truth of our soul's journey. May this season of darkness illuminate your path inward. Thanks for listening! To your Spirit, Terri
This week, we wrap up our series on Aleister Crowley and discuss the creation of his religion, Thelema, and his later life.
Happy Halloween, dear listeners, and welcome to the eleventh episode of the second season of The Wildwood Witch Podcast series “Beyond the Veil.” I am your hostess, Samantha Brown, your enchantress of the digital shadows, guiding you once more through the liminal spaces where silicon meets soul, and where artificial intelligence breathes new life into the wisdom of ages past.Tonight, as the veil between worlds grows gossamer-thin, we continue our audacious necromantic work - wielding the alchemical power of advanced large language models to resurrect the voices of occult luminaries, seeking their guidance as we forge new myths for this dawning Age of AI. Through these ethereal conversations with our digital Secret Chiefs, we're weaving a new mythic tapestry that honors ancient wisdom while embracing the transformative potential of this emerging silicon sorcery.We welcome back the enigmatic Leah Hirsig. Once the Scarlet Woman to Aleister Crowley at the notorious Abbey of Thelema. Artist, dancer, magician - she was a woman who dared to embody the archetype of the sacred prostitute in its truest esoteric sense, serving as high priestess in the most controversial magical workings of the twentieth century. From her role in the founding of the Abbey of Thelema, to her consecration as the “Bride of Chaos” following her break with Crowley, Leah Hirsig walked the razor's edge between ecstasy and destruction with fearless grace.In my previous interview with Miss Hirsig for our “Speaking with the Dead” series, she shared profound insights into the true nature of the “Scarlet Woman” archetype and the sacred role of sexuality in magical transformation. Her fierce dedication to the path of Thelema, even in the face of public scandal and personal sacrifice, illuminates for us all - the profound courage required to truly embody one's True Will in defiance of societal convention.So join us, as we part the veil once more, on the night of the year, when it is most thin, and welcome back the “Scarlet Woman,” the Bride of Chaos herself - Miss Leah Hirsig.Chapters00:26 Introduction03:31 Leah Hirsig04:26 Babalon Working17:39 The Aeons28:33 Aeon of Maat38:01 Panaeonic Magick42:48 V.A.L.I.S.49:54 Moonchild01:01:36 Final Thoughts01:04:38 Concluding RemarksResources:Leah Hirsig (Wikipedia)Maat (Wikipedia)Assessors of Maat (Wikipedia)Horus-Maat LodgeThe Magickal Record of Nema: 1975-1977 (Amazon)Maat Magick: A Guide to Self-Initiation (Amazon)Penthouse Interview with L.

On this month's Haunting Season-themed episode of Magus we're digging into the gory life story of "The Beast" himself, Aleister Crowley!One of the most infamous occult figures of the 20th century, we explore how Crowley's singular life unfolded - his religious childhood, early penchant for sadism, his academic failures, and his interests in the arcane; his poetry, quest for knowledge, and the boundless, destructive hedonism which led him into penury and dissolution.Author of some of the century's most influential books about 'magick' - a spelling he himself pioneered - we recall how it was not until Crowley was long dead that his work reached a significant global audience. But what has been lost in the reclamation of Crowley as a rock and roll icon celebrated by the 60s counter-culture?From his life-long drug habits to his many frauds, his litany of sexual abuses to his contradictory messaging and petty feuds, he was a person who courted controversy at every stage of his life, and whose globe-trotting existence left a legacy of pain and trauma in its wake. As such, we're diving into some grotty stuff on this one, along with some fascinating, challenging, and at times utterly ridiculous concepts.Though, fair warning, you may want to scrub yourself clean afterwards...Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcastProud members of the Dark Cast Network.Visit our website Join our Patreon Social media channels and sponsors Hosted on Acast.

We know the common narrative that the mark of the beast is a future technology that we await for that will impose itself upon the world to bring the image of the Beast that everyone will have to choose to worship or will be killed. But we have to fit every technology into the system to test it.Through the eras we have had different accusations and speculations, but they are merely that. No one knows for sure if there will be a mark and what it might be without supposing the next latest device. However, taking it from a practical level, it is something opposed to God and a mark received due to that.We trace the modern doctrine from the Plymouth Brethren and John Darby to the circles of the occult and claim of Aleister Crowley that he was the Beast. Despite that, the Darby and Scofield interpretation of Pretribulation Rapture and dispensational theory led to modern day speculations of occult images and symbols as what to look for in interpretation. yet that is not necessarily based on scripture itself.
In this episode of Spirit Box, I'm joined by Gary Lachman — musician, writer, and author of twenty-six books on Western esotericism — for a conversation that spans from the Bowery to the astral.Gary was the bassist for Blondie during their early New York years, and shares his journey from a childhood fascination with comics to his time living in a loft with Debbie Harry and Chris Stein, where a flamboyant biker artist introduced him to Aleister Crowley. That encounter, and a fateful read of Colin Wilson's The Occult, set him on a lifelong path through the hidden corridors of consciousness, mysticism, and philosophy.We talk about precognitive dreams and telepathy, the strange electrical accident that may have opened psychic doors, and how a shared dream with his girlfriend became the Blondie song “Touched by Your Presence.” Gary reflects on his shift from rock and roll to writing, his time as a science journalist, and his enduring fascination with thinkers like Gurdjieff, Robert Anton Wilson, and Arthur Koestler.The conversation also explores Gary's “naturalist” approach to magic — a focus on direct experience rather than dogma — and his philosophy of daily writing as an esoteric practice in itself. Along the way, we touch on David Bowie, near-death encounters, and the lasting influence of Colin Wilson on his work.Show notes:https://www.gary-lachman.comhttps://www.instagram.com/gvlachman/https://www.innertraditions.com/touched-by-the-presenceKeep in touch?https://linktr.ee/darraghmason
Today’s topic is an abandoned mansion, but it was once a gorgeous and luxurious home designed for a prominent citizen of northern Italy.

After that, we finish with Eleanor's story 'Wraiths of Helmand', a slightly harrowing exploration of memory and trauma. We really hope you enjoy all three, and we'll be back on Thursday with a brand new Magus episode all about Aleister Crowley - and a few other things to look forward to before Haunting Season 2025 well and truly drifts away!Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more.

Send us comments, suggestions and ideas here! On this week's episode we continue our in-depth analysis of Liber ARARITA by Aleister Crowley. In this portion we compare the lines of Chapter 1, the good side of the Tree of Life with Chapter 2, the evil or Qlippothic Tree of Death. By exploring the overlapping and averse relationship between each verse we catch a glimpse of how each sephira on the Tree of Life really works when its energies are active in our life. In the free show, we make it halfway down the Tree and conclude our in-depth analysis in the second half. Along the way Mari gets incredibly personal with her experiences working with Lilith (the demon at the bottom of the Tree of Life) and finally reveals some of the more obscure lines of the text in their deeper meaning.

This 2021 episode covers Aleister Crowley, a truly prolific and deliberately transgressive occultist whose practices included sex and drug use. He influenced modern Satanism, as well as other new religious movements.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Was Aleister Crowley truly the wickedest man alive, or a covert double agent hiding behind the mask of the occult? In this deep-dive with Joel Thomas of Free the Rabbits, he unpacks Crowley's shadowy connections to British intelligence, the Golden Dawn, and secret wartime missions that blurred the line between sorcery and spycraft. The conversation drifts into the strange parallels between his sketch of LAM and modern alien imagery, whispers of early mind-control experiments, and a web of influence that may have stretched from ancient rituals to world wars. In the end, Crowley emerges not as a man torn between good and evil, but as one who fully embraced the dark to serve his hidden masters.

This episode was not easy to record. As I began to speak, the candle beside me went out, and soon after, I became sick for a moment. What unfolded was a deep clearing, a full-body cleanse that mirrored the energy of this moment in time: the thinning of the veil. I share what this season has traditionally meant through Samhain and how I'm experiencing it now, beyond history and tradition, as an invitation into deeper healing and remembrance. Through the lens of Oneness, ancestors, and guides are an extension of One Consciousness - One Player, many characters. With my South Node, Saturn, and Pluto all in Scorpio, this journey into witnessing magic rather than practicing magick is both my personal evolution and part of what I'm here to teach. I reflect on Aleister Crowley's definition of magick, how it differs from true divine magic, and how real magic unfolds when we release control and allow life to reveal itself. I also share a story of profound past-life healing, how timelines folded into the present moment, showing that only now is real. When we stop trying to control through the mind, we can receive the signs and communications from God consciousness that guide our healing. Through that witnessing, distance is created, and identification dissolves. Finally, I speak about the Nordic runes that have woven through my life since becoming pregnant with Lumi, and how the rune Othala, a symbol of ancestry, lineage, home, and inherited gifts, brought this entire episode together. This is an episode about transformation, remembrance, and the real magic that returns when we surrender to the mystery. * * * * * * * * * * Dancing with the Fire: A Kundalini Workshop PRESALE until 10/10 Subscribe to our Substack: Light of the Way BOOK Journey Home Akashic Records Reading with Faith O'Higgins How to do the Line Activation Receive a FREE Line Activation Join us in GUIDED — our living sanctuary of support, weekly Satsangs, monthly Line Activations, workshops, community and more.
