The Dawning of a New Aeon, the Age of Aquarius, Islamic World Rule and Crappy has been Stars Wasting Primetime and the Man Responsible for All of It

Because of a recent surgery I had about six weeks of being homebound which gave me much time with seemingly little to do. However, it allowed me an opportunity to catch up on some reading; studying the esoteric arts; practicing the Great Work and watching way too much TV. This pot of differing stimuli and some pretty damn good pain killers combined for an illuminating contemplative stew.

This period had a monastic quality which allowed me to reevaluate my life. I strove to become closer to my Higher Power, studied the ancient esoteric mysteries, and sadly, became more familiar with American popular culture. The path of the Great Work is inspiring to me because no matter how far I am from Kether, I know I am moving in the direction of humanity's birthright.

However, the neo-Chamberlain response to the Lebanon crisis is disgraceful. Just as fascist used incrementalism in Nazi Germany the Islamic extremists are following the same pattern. Interestingly, one person that may have set this in motion had great respect for the "Mohamidans" as they were called in his time. Aleister Crowley accepted the mystic practices of the Sikhs and in fact had his most life transforming event in Egypt. By no means was he an enemy of the Arabs or the followers of Islam.

However, Crowley was forty years ahead of his time in the advocacy of Free Love and the ceremonial use of drugs to enhance his theurgical union with his Holy Guardian Angel. While he was not individually responsible for the flower child movement and the ensuing explosion of drug use in the 1960's and 70's he did influence icons of that generation.

Ozzie Osborn of Black Sabbath mentioned Crowley by name in one of his songs and the whole quasi-diabolical persona of that band may have had some inspiration from Crowley. Likewise, Jimmy Page, of Led Zeppelin, was greatly influenced by Crowley. So much so, he purchased the former estate of Crowley near Loch Ness, Boleskine. Page is said to practice the Golden Dawn magic where Crowley first made his name, this is not Satanic worship as many would have you believe.

But how does this lead to the Islamic Jihad for world domination? Well the 1970's started a trend to social liberalism which increasingly offended the ultra-legalistic mullahs of the extremist sects of Islam. It could be argued they should have the right to be offended by rampit drug use, casual meaningless sex, and the alienation of entire generation of our children--many Americans hold the same offense. However, the Fascist-Mullash decided Jihad was the answer to irradicate the great Satan and since 1979 we have seen incremental attacks and aggression on the West and Democracy.

Ironically, Crowley associated himself with the Great Beast, 666, of Revelations. So was Crowley the catalyst for the current extremist Jihad Fascists movement to rule the world? He did break many social conventions that became commonplace occurences in the 1960's by the Social Trendsetters of the Western Culture. Crowley even has a rather fervent cult following that many closed minded religios of all denominations consider devil worshippers or Satanists. So it would seem Crowley is indeed the Anti-Christ prophesised in Revelations--except for the fact that his overriding philosophy flies directly in the face of the Jihad Fascists.

In fact, Crowley had much in common with the Freethinkers of Natural Law of the 1700's: Locke; Adams; Jefferson; Washington; Franklin and Payne. Man has innate irrevocable rights that no man, institution, government OR religion can deny. Crowley believed every man and woman was a star and the summation of his life philosophy was, "Do what thy will, shall be the whole of the Law." Many claimed this was blatant promotion of Anarchy, but Crowley, if nothing else, was an intellectual and deep thinker. His philosophy simply meant find your true will and do all humanly possible to attain one's True Will. There was an addendum to Crowley's Do what they will... and it was "Love under Will, Love under the Law". Crowley was no anarchist, if anything he was a Libertarian (and yes a libertine) of the ilk of the Founding Fathers---inalienable rights that no entity can revoke.

So did Crowley put in place key motivators for what we are now experiencing -- perhaps yes. But he also in his erudite way promoted a philosophy that is held by the majority of Americans not in the strict esoteric sense, but in the sense that we will always reject tyranny and we own guns and know how to use them.

By the way, the real Anti-Christ is Mark Burnett who continues to parade has been celebrities on to his endless reality shows and thereby scarring our collective psyches. C'mon what redeeming factor is there to Chakha Khan showing her pomeranian's best pet tricks or the Dancing Guy from the Mighty Mighty Bostones favorite quilt collection. Enjoy your time now Mark Burnett for the Aeon of the Solar Christ Soul is hence and you will pay for your sins--especially that Clay Aikens thing.
