Summoning Aleister Crowley: "The Great Beast 666"
from Prying Minds Hosted by Liss and Bee
He called himself The Great Beast 666. The tabloids called him the wickedest man in the world. And we just call him... a hot mess. A chaotic, magical, drug-fueled mess. We're talking about none other than, Aleister Crowley. He was a poet, a mountaineer, a ceremonial magician, and a drama queen! He claimed to have summoned demons, channeled Egyptian spirits, wrote questionable poems, and even got himself kicked out of Italy for being too weird. But was he a dark prophet of a new age… or just a dramatic dude with too much money and too much access to hallucinogens? So grab your velvet cloak, light a black candle, and join us as we descend into the life and legacy of the man who made Victorian England clutch its pearls.
