Now I Know Why They Say To Keep Silent

- January 30, 2022January 30, 202213

by selki girl Late Registration I’ve owed Thelemic Union this piece for over a year. Technically speaking, I wouldn’t even qualify myself as a Thelemite proper. By definition, I’m a relative outsider to your world. As far as credentials go, I get along with a handful of Thelemites on twitter who appear to

Crowley and Evola: Comparisons and Parallels

- December 22, 2021December 22, 20217

by Vincent St. Clare I enjoy “rambling” on comparisons and parallels between various thinkers; in particular I like to compare Aleister Crowley to his contemporaries, and compare their respective ideas—though I’ve never put these comparisons (and correlations) into text before now. In this essay I intend to do just those things,

A Woman of Color in Thelema

- November 24, 2021November 24, 202124

by Kelly N. AKA Keanu Tease Not guilty. I’m not shocked. I’m upset. I’m crying. But I’m not shocked. This trial was a joke from start to finish. Murder is legal in the United States apparently, but only if you have the correct skin tone. It’s over 400 years of systemic oppression

AL and LA: Thelema and the Death of God

- November 3, 2021November 3, 20214

By Nic Laccetti Why was the Book of the Law renamed Liber AL vel Legis from Liber L vel Legis? More importantly, what is the meaning for us today of the interplay between AL and LA, “God” and “nothing,” as the key to the Thelemic holy book? It’s my contention that

What is Consensus Thelema?

- October 16, 2021October 27, 202115

by Entelecheia Consensus Thelema is hard to define. It is nebulous by nature. But it also tends to disguise itself as its opposite: lack of consensus, radical individualism, creative self-expression, iconoclasm, and an uncompromising advocacy of non-conformity. It’s like a force field that permeates the Thelemic community. It’s conspicuous when you

The Multiplicity of Thelemas

- September 1, 2021October 10, 20218

by Vincent St. Clare I’ve been accused a few times of trying to turn Thelema into something it’s not, of attempting to somehow create for myself a type of Thelema that fits my own version of how this philosophy and spiritual path should operate. While I’ll concede that I’ve come to

Capitalism, Magick and the Law of Thelema

- January 24, 2021March 15, 202214

by Anonymous Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law. The Law of Thelema and Thelemic values stand diametrically opposed to Capitalism. Therefore, it also stands against all forces and tributaries that nourish and support Capitalism, whose deliberate fabrication, orchestration and execution saw to its inception and see to

Thelema as a Path of Erotic Liberation

- December 27, 2020October 10, 202118

by Entelecheia Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law. This article represents an attempt to interpret Thelema as a coherent path of spiritual liberation. This reconstruction resolves two problems of Thelema interpretation, what I have called the Coherence Problem and the Liberation Problem. I also believe it is

- October 30, 2020October 10, 20210

by IAO131 This article is an excerpt from the book Fresh Fever From the Skies: Collected Works of IAO131, a tome of over 700 pages on Thelemic philosophy and magick. What is a Magician? It is written, “Thou hast no right but to do thy will. Do that, and no other shall
