REDEEMING 666: THE ANTICHRIST THROUGH THELEMIC EYES
In Christian mythology, the term Antichrist refers to the ultimate adversary of Christ in the last days, a figure of deception and desecration who opposes God’s plan. The concept evolved from New Testament sources: the First Epistle of John speaks of “many antichrists” referring to any deceivers denying Christ, but later Christian imagination crystallised this into a single apocalyptic villain.

of
Aleister Crowley's Mysticism: A Practical Guide:
"Illuminating, erudite, and essential reading for those who wish to step deeper into the mysteries. As with its predecessor The Aleister Crowley Manual, with diligence this highly accessible book will rewire your neural highway and send you flying dow"

of
Aleister Crowley's Mysticism: A Practical Guide:
"Okay, this is the thing about Marco Visconti’s "Aleister Crowley’s Mysticism": it is not only a great companion volume to his "The Aleister Crowley Manual", but it’s essentially a stand-alone introduction to Crowley’s philosophy … BUT … (and this is "

| This is a clear, disciplined primer that bridges history and hands-on work with unusual grace. Horowitz frames the project with Jack Parsons’s call for simplicity, then actually delivers it: brisk chapters that define terms, sketch lineage, and move ...more | |

| The Secret of the Thoth Tarot is an exegesis of Crowley’s Book of Thoth rather than a spread-by-spread tutorial. Hughes-Barlow opens by showing you how to study Crowley’s text, then traces the deck’s Masonic and Golden Dawn DNA, setting readers up to ...more | |

“In Thelema, True Will (also Pure Will) is defined as a moment-to-moment path of action that operates in perfect harmony with everything else. True Will does not equate with conscious intent.”
― The Aleister Crowley Manual: Thelemic Magick for Modern Times
― The Aleister Crowley Manual: Thelemic Magick for Modern Times
“The most popular is likely ‘the science and art of causing change to occur in conformity with Will’.”

“In this new aeon, you are the central character of the epic. Not gods or heroes: you, and you alone. This is the groundbreaking change of perspective that brings each individual to the centre of the universe, as each becomes essentially one with the interplay between Hadit and Nuit, as we saw earlier. There is no saviour to pray to, no vicarious atonement. In fact, there is nothing to be saved from either–only fantastic adventures to be had, both on this plane of existence and on others.”
