THE MAGICK OF ALEISTER CROWLEY: A Handbook of Rituals of Thelema

THE MAGICK OF ALEISTER CROWLEY: A Handbook of Rituals of Thelema

By Lon Milo DuQuette

Aleister Crowley was infamously known as 'The Great Beast 666' and 'The Wickedest Man in the World'... Unfortunately this infamy often eclipsed his teachings, as did his technical and opaque writing style, meant more for adepts contemporary to him than the average modern reader. In this book Lon Milo DuQuette deciphers and explains Crowley’s texts and his more important rituals.

'The Magick of Aleister Crowley' is a clear introduction to the works of Crowley by a modern master of the occult. DuQuette takes the mystery out of both the rituals themselves and Crowley’s writing in this modern grimoire. Step by step, he presents a course of study in plain English, with examples of rituals and explanations of their significance. DuQuette also includes a course of study for Crowley’s system of 'Scientific Illuminism' with an extensive bibliography and fastidious footnotes. This revised edition features extensive corrections, a new introduction, and a new chapter of rituals, "The Rites of Eleusis."

THE BLOODY COUNTESS: Atrocities of Erzsebet Bathory: By Valentine Penrose / Translation by Alexander Trocchi

THE BLOODY COUNTESS: Atrocities of Erzsebet Bathory
By Valentine Penrose - Translated by Alexander Trocchi

Descended from an ancient aristocratic European family, Erzsebet Bathory bore all the psychotic characteristics of centuries of inner family breeding. From early adolescence she indulged in sadistic lesbian fantasies - where only the spilling of others female blood could satisfy her urges.

By middle age, she had regressed into a mirror fixated state and was practicing necro-sadism, torture, cannibalism, vampirism, wholesale slaughter, blood bathing and witchcraft. These years, in the late 16th century, would witness a reign of cruelty unsurpassed in the history of mass murder, with over 600 deaths alone attributed to the 'Bloody Countess'.

Her many castles were all equipped with torture chambers where she would torture and mutilate her victims - virtual killing factories where hundreds of girls were killed and processed - the Countess would bath in their virgin blood - believing it would preserve her youth and beauty.

LORDS OF THE LEFT-HAND PATH: From the Cult of Set to the Church of Satan - by Stephen E. Flowers

LORDS OF THE LEFT-HAND PATH: From the Cult of Set to the Church of Satan

By Stephen E. Flowers, Ph. D.

'Terminus Viae'

The Left-Hand Path is the way of the HERO....
The path of those who, having understood their own individual divinities, would dare to breach the gates of eternity and eat of the tree of life eternal - to stand against the inertia and ignorance of the whole universe, to strive against that which would thwart all intelligence and life and to prevail against it - THIS is the aim of the Sinister Path.....

From black magic and Satanism to Gnostic sects and Gurdjieff’s Fourth Way, the left-hand path has been linked to many practices, cults, and individuals across the ages. Stephen Flowers, Ph.D., examines the methods, teachings, and historical role of the left-hand path, from its origins in Indian tantric philosophy to its underlying influence in current world affairs, and reveals which philosophers, magicians, and occult figures throughout history can truly be called “Lords of the Left-Hand Path.”

Flowers explains that while the right-hand path seeks union with and thus dependence on God, the left-hand path seeks a “higher law” based on knowledge and power. It is the way of self-empowerment and true freedom. Beginning with ancient Hindu and Buddhist sects and moving Westward, he examines many alleged left-hand path groups, including the Cult of Set, the Yezidi Devil Worshippers, the Assassins, the Neoplatonists, the Hell-Fire Club, the Bolsheviks, the Occult Nazis, and several heretical Sufi, Zoroastrian, Christian, and Muslim sects. Following a carefully crafted definition of a true adherent of the left-hand path based on two main principles--self-deification and challenge to the conventions of “good” and “evil".

The author analyzes many famous and infamous personalities, including H. P. Blavatsky, Faust, the Marquis de Sade, Austin Osman Spare, Aleister Crowley, Gerald Gardner, Anton LaVey, and Michael Aquino, and reveals which occult masters were Lords of the Left-Hand Path. Flowers shows that the left-hand path is not inherently evil but part of our heritage and our deep-seated desire to be free, independent, and in control of our destinies.
