Also the mantras and spells; the obeah and the wanga;
​the work of the wand and the work of the sword; these he shall learn and teach.
He must teach; but he may make severe the ordeals.

We will be using various textbooks including The Magick of Aleister Crowley, Living Thelema, as well as Magick in Theory and Practice, Liber ABA and others.

Soror Elah leads a walk-through of the Mass, exploring its symbolism and giving newer people a chance to learn the various roles and prepare to participate in future public celebrations themselves!

Magick Without Tears Book Club
Join Soror Mackay and others for this bi-monthly read-along and discussion of one of Aleister Crowley's most enigmatic books, Magick Without Tears.

If you own a copy of the book, please bring it with you!
The Vision and the Voice Study Group
Each month we gather to read from one of the most important books of the New Aeon, Liber 418: The Vision and the Voice. This account of Aleister Crowley and Victor Neuberg's experiences scrying the 30 Enochian Aethyrs in the Tunisian desert led to much of the understanding we now have of the Thelemic world view. Many of the cards of the Thoth Tarot were based on these visions. If you own a copy of the book, please bring it!
Equinox of the Gods Reading Group
Frater Obelos leads this monthly read-along and study of the enigmatic book Equinox of the Gods by Aleister Crowley. In this account, Crowley outlines the circumstances surrounding the reception of the Holy Book of the New Aeon, the Book of the Law, in 1904. Please bring a copy of the book if you own one.
Mystery of Mystery Study Group
Join Sx KhonsuRa for this monthly study of the Gnostic Mass.

We will go over the Gnostic Mass in great detail and analyze its hidden meaning and symbolism. If you own a copy of the book, please bring it with you! Copies may also be available for purchase from our store.
Magick in Theory and Practice Study Group
​Beginning in April, we will begin a chapter by chapter study of what is perhaps the most profound book on the subject of magick ever written. In this book, Crowley covers all aspects of ceremonial magick, including weapons, invocations, gestures, the temple and much, much more! This class will be lively and exciting - we hope you will join us!
The fool readeth this Book of the Law, and its comment; & he understandeth it not.
Let him come through the first ordeal, & it will be to him as silver.
Through the second, gold.
Through the third, stones of precious water.
Through the fourth, ultimate sparks of the intimate fire.
Yet to all it shall seem beautiful. Its enemies who say not so, are mere liars.
There is success.
~ Liber ​AL III:63-69 ~
