Aleister Crowley, the "Great Beast" or the last black wizard

Aleister Crowley. They said he was the most perverse man in the world, hence he was also known by the nicknames of "The great beast 666" or the "Black Magician" .The truth is that he worshiped that fame that enveloped his figure, because that way he was able to further shock the puritan Victorian society he saw in amazement-and some fear-the reckless behavior of this man.

Mystical, occultist, ceremonial magician, founder of the religious philosophy of Thelemam, member of the famous organization "The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn" and, above all, a great exhibitionist The name of Aleister Crowley continues to cause as much curiosity as I respect today.

Aleister Crowley and his dark passions

He belonged to a family of British high society.A boy who was orphaned early and in 1886 had to go live with his aunts, two women who raised him (or at least they tried) under the ferrous pillars of a very conservative evangelical group called the "Plymouth Brothers" .This kind of Puritan capsule made him want to react to these religious principles as soon as possible, bringing him closer, so to speak, on the reverse side more disturbing of religion.

Already in his years at Cambridge he began to write his first essays, his first esoteric novels that opened new paths, new trails between British society, where he managed to gain a foothold as a magician and occultist.I add the name of Baphomet and write authentic manuals of magic and occultism as "Magick in Theory and Practice" or «The Book of the Law ».
