Magick

Magick is the ancient Art and Science of causing physical and psychic changes to occur in conformity with the Will of the Magician.

We are practitioners and teachers of Alchemy, Qabala, Divination, Ritual Magick, Yoga, and related disciplines, all aimed at furthering the Spiritual Evolution of humankind and achieving the Great Work.

Aleister Crowley

Aleister Crowley was a prominent British author, poet, philosopher, mountain climber, and Magician who lived from 1875-1947. In 1897 he was initiated into the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, an occult society under the direction of S.L. MacGregor Mathers. It was here that Crowley began his lifelong dedication to the study and practice of Magick.

The Book of the Law

On April 8th, 9th, and 10th of 1904 a spiritual entity known as Aiwass dictated Liber AL vel Legis (The Book of the Law) to Crowley in Cairo, Egypt. This book contains 220 verses in 3 chapters, and heralds the dawning of a new aeon in human development. It brings a message of spiritual freedom and personal emancipation to all of humanity, communicated in a philosophy known as the Law of Thelema.

The Law of Thelema

Thelema is a Greek word meaning "will". The Law of Thelema may be stated as: "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law." This assertion recognizes the absolute right of every human being to follow his or her true course of existence without interference. It is further elaborated by the phrase: "Love is the law, love under will" indicating the manner by which this right is to be ensured. We believe that every person possesses a True Will which he or she may follow to achieve complete harmony and absolute fulfillment throughout life and beyond. Our Order exists to support and encourage the flowering of this True Will for everyone.

Ordo Templi Orientis

In 1922 Aleister Crowley assumed leadership of the O.T.O. and revised its rites to conform to the Law of Thelema. Today the O.T.O. is active in 26 countries, with growing membership of over 4,500 people. We are a serious, secret Order, pledged to the high purpose of securing the liberty of the individual and his or her advancement in Light, Wisdom, Understanding, Knowledge and Power through Beauty, Courage, and Wit, on the Foundation of Universal Brotherhood.
