Magick Of Alester Crowley By Lon Milo Duquette

Aleister crowley’s ascension into the pantheon of alternative gurus was cemented by his appearance on the beatles’ sgt.Pepper’s lonely hearts club band album cover.Unfortunately, he was known more for his reputation as “the beast 666” and “the wickedest man in the world.” all well and good for publicity, but this infamy eclipsed his teachings, as did his technical and opaque writing style, meant more for adepts contemporary to him than the average modern reader.Enter lon milo duquette to decipher and explain crowley’s texts and more important rituals.Formerly titled the magick of thelema, this revised edition features extensive corrections, a new introduction, and a new ritual, “the rites of eleusis.” this is the perfect introductory text for readers who wonder what the works rather than the myth of aleister crowley are all about.Duquette takes the mystery out of both the rituals themselves and crowley’s writing in this modern grimoire.
