Episode 38: Aleister Crowley

Jay walks us through Occult Grand Master: Aleister Crowley.

This story contains:

1. The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. (Esoteric organization!)

2. Crowley outlined three forms of sex magick — the autoerotic, homosexual, and heterosexual. (Yes. There will be sex!)

3. Crowley defined Magick as "the Science and Art of causing change to occur in conformity with Will." (Magic with a K!)

4. Thelema has been described as magico-religious doctrine: a form of esotericism and modern Paganism. (New Age!)

5. Spying, weirdness, and Jack the Ripper. (Come for the sex, stay for the magick!)
