THE GREAT BEAST! Today, we look at the occult leader, Aleister Crowley, who is also know as the 666 Great Beast. We cover topics like forming The Hermetic Order of The Golden Dawn, that the Book of Law meant, Aleister's contact with Egyptian God Horus, s*x magic, if Aleister Crowley was a spy and other interesting topics…WELCOME TO CAMP

Aleister Crowley was an English occultist, ceremonial magician, poet, philosopher, political theorist, novelist, mountaineer, and painter. He founded the religion of Thelema, identifying himself as the prophet entrusted with guiding humanity into the Æon of Horus in the early 20th century. Most know of him from his occult celebrity built on the premise, "Do What Thou Will Is The Whole of The Law" but what about his other "secret" life as an agent for the British government? Follow Joel on the mind-blowing last chapter of the Agent Crowley MK-Ultra series where all of the hidden connections are made of the Great Beast's time as the hidden father of mind control. Joel looks at the Book of the Law's name change and veiled messages that point to the Divine Cactus or peyote as being the catalyst to meeting Crowley's Holy Guardian Angel, Aiwass. Then follow Crowley's journey to Vancouver in 1915, and his secret agenda as he moved between several states to get there and his proposed Liber 934 with covert peyote testing. Lastly, we look at the life of Timothy Leary, his connection to the CIA's MK-Ultra programing and carrying out the work of his mentor, Aleister Crowley.

Join Joel as he unravels part 1 of Agent Crowley's mark on MK-Ultra as he explores Aleister's fascination with the Divine Cactus, or peyote. Crowley's experimentation with the plant in achieving Samadhi, or  “Union with God”, to connect with his Holy Guardian Angel to receive guidance. Early experiments from men like Charles Henry Allan Bennett, John Raleigh Briggs, George S. Davis, James Mooney, Dr. Silas Weir Mitchell and member of the Golden Dawn, William Butler Yeats all set the tone for the hidden trials the Great Beast would embark on. Lastly, Joel looks at Crowley's mescaline parties he performed in the United States and his use of the drug to bring him closer to what he believed were the Secret Chiefs.

This episode we turn our attention to the concept of chaos undivided and the role it plays in the tale of chaos as a whole. We discuss the philosophy of “The Great Beast” and how that is expressed through the tribes and armies as a whole in an almost modular fashion. We then take a look at what happens when an entire culture is abandoned by the chaos gods after millennia of favour… the Fimir have returned! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Show notes⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Chunks of Dhar⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Merchandise⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Quartermaster

Jack is joined by friend of the show, Wolf Fleetwood, for an in-depth journey into the wild and legendary life of Aleister Crowley—an English occultist, ceremonial magician, poet, novelist, painter, and mountaineer. This is the first installment of a multi-part series available exclusively on our Patreon. Aleister Crowley was an enigmatic and controversial figure, often shrouded in myth and mystery. Known as "The Great Beast 666" and dubbed "The Wickedest Man in the World" by the press, Crowley was an English occultist, ceremonial magician, and writer who dedicated his life to exploring the boundaries of the unknown. He claimed to have been contacted by a supernatural entity named Aiwass in 1904, who dictated The Book of the Law to him in Cairo, Egypt. This text became the cornerstone of Thelema, Crowley's spiritual philosophy, which proclaimed, "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law," emphasizing individual will and spiritual liberation. Crowley was a member of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, but his unorthodox methods and rebellious nature led him to establish his own esoteric orders, including the A∴A∴ and the Ordo Templi Orientis (OTO). His rituals often involved elaborate symbolism, sex magic, and invocations of ancient deities, blending Eastern mysticism, Western esotericism, and his own unique vision. Crowley's life was a tapestry of scandal, excess, and intrigue—he was a mountaineer, poet, and spy, rumored to have worked for British intelligence during World War I. His legacy is a paradox: revered by some as a visionary and prophet, yet reviled by others as a charlatan or even a harbinger of darkness. To this day, Crowley remains an enigmatic figure, his influence echoing through occult circles, art, music, and popular culture, leaving many to wonder whether he was a misunderstood genius or a man who truly tapped into forces beyond human understanding. Part 2 is out now and Part 3 is coming later this week. Listen to those and the rest of the series by signing up for the Otherworld Patreon.

Was he a madman, a magician, or something even stranger? In this episode of Foggy Jack Live, we dive into the dark and mysterious life of Aleister Crowley—the self-proclaimed "Great Beast 666" and one of the most controversial occultists in history. Paranormal magician and mentalist Foggy Jack unpacks Crowley's influence on modern magick, secret societies, and even pop culture. From the ritual practices of Thelema to his alleged dealings with otherworldly entities, Crowley's story is filled with bizarre experiments, cryptic writings, and enough high strangeness to keep conspiracy theorists up at night. Was Crowley truly tapping into ancient, forbidden knowledge, or was he simply a provocateur pushing the boundaries of belief? And how does his legacy still influence the paranormal and occult communities today?

Carolyn and Laila talk about Carolyn's recent theory that AC, with all his scandalousness and mythopoetic self-identification as the Great Beast of The Book of Revelations, succeeded in “immanentizing the eschaton” (to borrow a phrase of the late, great Terrence McKenna) and revealing to Western consciousness a new archetype of the whole Self, later elaborated by Carl Jung in his 1951 classic, Aion, about Christ and Antichrist.

The Devil goes by many names: Satan, Lucifer, The Great Beast, Beelzebub, The Prince of Darkness. He is the adversary, the accuser, the tempter, the deceiver, and the one who divides from God. The Devil is incredibly wicked and evil, but also intelligent and witty – he is the father of all tricksters – that is what makes him so dangerous. The English word “devil” derives from the Greek diábolos (“the one who divides”). Diabolic is the term in contemporary English. The Greek verb dia-bollein literally means to tear apart. These divisions occur in almost every facet of our lives: race, sex, religion, politics, and economics. The demonic is an inversion of order. Temptation is the ordinary activity of the devil. It is a real thing for us in each and every day. It begins with deception, buying into the lies of the devil, who promises good, only to deliver evil. The goal of this is to create division or inner conflict in ourselves. In despair, we numb ourselves with pleasure or diversion, which can lead to addiction. Hell is that state of mind which has abandoned itself so completely to a given sin that it cannot act independently of that sin. ☕ ⁠⁠Donate a coffee⁠⁠ ⭐ ⁠⁠Support on Patreon⁠ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⌛ Timestamps (0:00) Introduction (1:18) Daimon (2:06) Pan: The God of Panic and Pandemonium (3:24) Scapegoating, Projection, God-Complex (5:38) The Devil: The One Who Divides (7:06) The Characteristics of the Diabolic (9:05) Deals with the Devil (13:30) Archetypes, Ego-Inflation, and Delusion (14:35) The Fall from Paradise (Felix Culpa) (16:52) The Devil and Christ as Lucifer (Morning Star) (20:09) Satan (The Adversary) and Job (23:52) The Ultimate Tragic Story (24:29) The Harrowing of Hell (25:16) Satanism: Evil Disguised as Good (27:02) The Psychological Activities of The Demonic (31:08) Carl Jung on the Devil (Shadow) (33:23) The Devil in The Major Arcana (34:13) The One-Sided Western Image of God (36:50) Summum Bonum: The Highest Good (37:22) Privatio Boni: The Absence of Good (37:56) Deus Absconditus: The Hidden Dark Side of God (39:00) The Apocalypse (Revelation) and Enantiodromia (43:00) Conclusion

Loch Ness is best known as the home of a cryptid--the mysterious, serpentine creature called the Loch Ness Monster.We didn't see Nessie during our visit to Scotland in 2019, but we did see a site that played an important role in the spread of occult teachings in the 20th century: Boleskine House, which overlooks Loch Ness, was the home of occultist Aleister Crowley a little over a century ago. Crowley, who called himself the Great Beast 666, was so influential that his image appears three times on the album cover for the Beatles' 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.'Sharon explains why the late 19th and early 20th centuries were a transitional period for the world in terms of spirituality and the supernatural, which is why she set her series of supernatural thrillers The Redwing Saga right in the middle of this era. Watch for Crowley, Russian mystic Grigori Rasputin, and the creator of Sherlock Holmes, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, to appear in future entries of The Redwing Saga.Join us in Israel!

We present a remastered version of episode 62, our interview with Dean Ballinger, as part of our remembrance of him.

Tony interviews Author Richard B. Spence, talking about his book "Secret Agent 666: Aleister Crowley, British Intelligence and the Occult". Richard can be seen on various documentaries on the History Channel and is a consultant for Washington, DC's International Spy Museum. In addition to Secret Agent 666: Aleister Crowley, British Intelligence and the Occult, he is also the author of Trust No One: The Secret World of Sidney Reilly (Feral House).In This interview we will talk about Aleister Crowley, Crowley is best known today as a founding father of modern occultism. His wide, hypnotic eyes peer at us from the cover of The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, and his influence can be found everywhere in popular culture.Crowley, also known as the Great Beast, has been the subject of several biographies, some painting him as a misunderstood genius, others as a manipulative charlatan. None of them have looked seriously at his career as an agent of British Intelligence.Using documents gleaned from British, American, French, and Italian archives, Secret Agent 666 sensationally reveals that Crowley played a major role in the sinking of the Lusitania, a plot to overthrow the government of Spain, the thwarting of Irish and Indian nationalist conspiracies, and the 1941 flight of Rudolf Hess.

(image source: https://www.thoughtco.com/megatherium-giant-sloth-1093238) Host Matthew Donald and guest co-host Christina Eilert discuss Megatherium, a creature whose full scientific name literally translates to “Great American Beast” but this isn't 4th of July-related due to it not being that America, so sorry, USA-ians. From the Late Pleistocene, this 20-foot ground sloth dope slapped some Smilodon populator to death to keep said Smilodon populator from doing too much of their namesake populating. Huh, maybe I take the meanings of these scientific names too literally. Want to further support the show? Sign up to our Patreon for exclusive bonus content at Patreon.com/MatthewDonald.

This episode of BHA is a 4/20 special! Roll up and put your thinking hats on, because we're gonna get high as fuck and philosophize a little bit. Starting with the primordial origins of humanity and moving forward, I discuss the evolutionary mechanisms of cannabis and how the chemical structure of the plant has been incorporated into our human biology for thousands and thousands of years now. I also take some time to talk about the ancient history of cannabis and its use in spiritual and religious customs throughout the ancient world, often used as a sacrament relating to the Tree of Life and revered by the alchemists of the east! I even read excerpts from an essay that the Great Beast himself, Aleister Crowley once wrote, entitled "The Psychology of Hashish." Additional topics will also include the modern science relating to cannabis, including neuroscience, psychology, botany, and horticulture. Then, at the end, we discuss some of the downsides to constant cannabis use! While cannabis is irrefutably considered a medicine again in our society, it can still be abused just like any other medicine and while you cannot overdose, there still can be some potential downsides. It's important to keep these things in mind! SMOKE RESPONSIBLY, SMOKE TO GROUND YOURSELF AND SET INTENTIONS, AND SMOKE TO UNDERSTAND YOUR PROBLEMS -- NOT RUN AWAY FROM THEM. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, SMOKE WEED EVERYDAY! HAPPY 4/20 EVERYONE! my book Hunt Manual my book Dive Manual Cowboy Matt Hopewell - New Old School (end track) The Psychology of Hashish Chris Bennett and his work a pretty damn old article I wrote about cannabis and metaphysics modern anti-cannabis activism (mostly dumb with some kernels of interest) a Manly Palmer Hall lecture on drugs and metaphysics (a little straight-laced but not judge-y and very interesting) --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/blackhoodiealchemy/support
