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.
The Magick of Aleister Crowley is a clear introduction to the works of Crowley
by a modern master of the occult and one of the wittiest writers in the field.
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 original works with an extensive bibliography
and fastidious footnotes.
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.
Lon Milo DuQuette is a bestselling author and lecturer on such topics as magick, tarot,
and the Western mystery traditions.
He is currently US Deputy Grand Master of Ordo Templi Orentis
and is on the faculty of the Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, NY and the Maybe Logic Academy.
Among his many books, he is the author of My Life with the Spirits,
Understanding Aleister Crowley’s Thoth Tarot, and Tarot of Ceremonial Magick.
He lives in Costa Mesa, CA, with his beautiful wife Constance.
