Winter & Spring 2023 Classes

Posted on January 23rd, 2023

Join Horizon Lodge this winter and spring for our new class series! In this series of classes, members of O.T.O. will share their knowledge and research so that we may grow in deeper connection with our Thelemic spirituality.

The Ma’at of Thelema
Aion 131
Tuesday, February 21, 7:00pm-9:00pm

Ma’at—the Egyptian concept of truth, balance, order, harmony, law, morality, and justice—pervades the gnosis of Thelema as manifested in Liber AL vel Legis, and it whispers through many Thelemic Holy Books. Truth, Justice, and Balance are all crucial to success in understanding and practicing magick. This presentation and discussion by Aion 131 will focus on how Ma’at magick weaves itself not only through Crowley’s works, but also how it connects with the ‘Ma-Ion’ Ma’atian gnosis as proclaimed by Frater Achad, the black flame Ma’at emanations of Soror Nema, as well as others in the wider Thelemic community. Achad saw the spiral of the Aeon of Horus and the Aeon of Ma’at entwining and supporting each other, and others believe that the balancing of the Aeons of Horus and of Ma’at will help humanity survive the force and fire of this Aeon.

Thelemic Solar Magick: Liber Resh
Entelecheia
Tuesday, March 21, 7:00pm-9:00pm

In this class, Entelecheia will lead us in considering the practice of Liber Resh both from a theoretical and a practical point of view. We will consider Liber Resh as a form of Thelemic mindfulness practice, as a way of drawing closer to nature, and as a means of tapping into the Thelemic magical current. We will consider practice details and how to incorporate Liber Resh into a daily Thelemic spiritual regimen.

Babalon Before the Bible
Brother Brian
Tuesday, April 18, 7:00pm-9:00pm

Join us as Brother Brian leads us on an exploration of Thelemic antecedents in feminine divinities prior to the Old Aeon.

Aiwass, Secret Chiefs, and the Nature of Revelation
Brother Mark
Tuesday, May 16, 7:00pm-9:00pm

With Brother Mark, we will look at Crowley’s developing ideas about his connection to higher forms of intelligence in the context of artistic creativity and the continuing excavation of the unconscious mind.

Keys to the Magick of Aleister Crowley
Brother Kellen
Tuesday, June 20, 7:00pm-9:00pm

In this class taught by Brother Kellen, we will examine the concept of correspondences in the Hermetic Qabalah used by ceremonial magicians, the history of the idea, and their use both in constructing ritual and interpreting the works of Aleister Crowley. The class will end with some practical suggestions for learning correspondences.
