Bonus Shizz #57: Jack Parsons, Marjorie Cameron, and the Babalon Working Ritual
from WakingWorld · host WakingWorld
In this episode of Bonus Shizz, Toby guides us through the bizarre and fascinating life of Jack Parsons—rocket scientist, occultist, and devoted follower of Aleister Crowley. The focus is on Parsons' intense and esoteric relationship with artist and sorceress Marjorie Cameron, and their shared attempt to ritually conceive a "moonchild"—a magickal being destined to usher in a new spiritual age. Central to this effort was the infamous Babalon Working, a series of Thelemic sex magick rituals intended to manifest the goddess Babalon on Earth. From ritual chambers to rocket labs, this episode explores one of the strangest intersections of science, mysticism, and spiritual ambition in modern occult history.
