Aleister Crowley, Austin Osman Spare, Dion Fortune and the German occultist Eugen Grosche were among the first Western adepts to teach the use of the psychosexual energies whose "snake-like Ophidian Current" permeates the most ancient secret knowledge of Africa and the Far East. This work presents an exhaustive analysis of Crowley's system of sexual magic and the strange rites which he practised and advocated for the purpose of promoting the "Law of freedom" with its formula of "love under will".

Typhonian and Kali oriented Sex Magick from a Masters P.O.V,
By A Customer
This review is from: Aleister Crowley & the Hidden God (Hardcover)
Kenneth Grant has explored the realms of Aleister Crowley's world of Sex Magick and successfully applied it to his own philosophy of Typhonian Magick. A great review and introduction to Western Tantric practices.
This is part two of the initial Typhonian trilogy which includes his other books "The Magical Revival" and "Cults of the Shadow", all of which are worthy readings for the New Age Occultist.
A must have for those interested in Aleister Crowley, the O.T.O., Sex Magick, and/or Chaos Magick

Not what you might expect...OR want...,
By Walter Five (13th Floor Elevator, Enron Hubbard Bldg. Houston Texxas) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE)
This review is from: Aleister Crowley and the Hidden God (Hardcover)
Grant unfortunatley exposes his homophobia in this book, and writes disparagingly about Crowley's infamous, alleged and possibly spurious XI Degree.
That said, this book was, for many years, one of the most lucid books written on hetrosexual sex magick, particularly of the Thelemic current, and it's still *quite* informative. It IS over 25 years since Grant wrote this, so perhaps his prejudiced opinions of homosexual magickal workings, and those who work them, has softened. Grant has the tendency to get a little loopy and self-referential (as well as self-reverential) in some of his other works, but largely sticks to the points here. This is the Skoob Book 2nd edition; a 3rd edition will be released by Starfire Press in the near future, those students not wishing to invest $100+ would be well advised to waith for its re-publication.
