Author, psychologist, and longtime Thelemite, Dr. David Shoemaker livingthelema.com joins Luxa https://linktr.ee/LuxaStrata to share about his new book, The Way of the Will:Thelema in action and about how Thelema might differ from other traditions or religions where thinking about the founder is concerned. Topics discussed include Aleister Crowley- the man vs. his work, the Magical Will, and Qabalistic Psychology. David also shares thoughts about vetting magical teachers and organizations and about different ways that people can attain spiritual wisdom. Luxa shares an update about The Green Mushroom Hyphosigil Project https://greenmushroomproject.com/ and our new experiment in creating a consent-forward magical space, Void House by reading the newly discovered book 23 of the 23:Bibliomancy scripture and about how Douglas Adams became canonized as one of our saints. This episode also features tracks from the Chicago based group, Lost Leigion’s new album, Behind the Concrete Veil https://lostlegionchicago.bandcamp.com/album/behind-the-concrete-veil as well as an Eyebreaker and listener mail and shout outs! Much Love.
