INTERESTING ASPECTS OF THE OCCULT. THIS IS A FASCIST-FREE BLOG!
The notorious Untitled (Peyote Vision) (1955).
By actress, poet, occultist, artist, and general crazy person (but in a good way), Marjorie Cameron (1922-1995).
In 1957, artist Wallace Berman used a reproduction of this drawing as part of his assemblage, Temple. The LAPD raided the exhibition and arrested Berman on obscenity charges.

Galerie agnès b.“Cette exposition est l’occasion de faire un focus sur Cameron, artiste et occultiste américaine qui fut notamment une adepte d’Aleister Crowley (occultiste anglais fondateur de l’OTO – Ordo Templi Orientis), l’épouse de Jack Parsons (pionnier de la propulsion spatiale US et également membre de l’OTO), mais aussi l’égérie de cinéastes expérimentaux tels que Kenneth Anger ou Curtis Harrington ainsi qu’une figure féminine de la Beat Generation, proche d’artistes comme Wallace Berman ou George Herms.”
Happy birthday to the ultimate Scarlet Woman, Marjorie Cameron.

An Entreaty unto the Lord of All Wisdom, BAPHOMET:
O’ Baphomet! Mystery of Mysteries!
I call Thee Black Goat of the Sabbat,
let the Light of Illumination shine!
From on high Thy radiance is as a hidden
grace falling, taken up by those who
wonder the lonely road.From betwixt Thy Horns the Heavenly Numina
blazes! In the Darkest of Night’s your Light reveals
the path we shall walk. Hidden, but seen by those
with the Eye to See! I ask Thee forth from
the Dark to come, as a Fiery Brilliance as
bright as the Sun!Baph-Metis! Lord of the Horns!
Holy Androgyne! From Thy Double-Sexuality I am born!O’ Baphomet! Horned Spirit of Eternity!
Come forth! King of Night’s Delights and Master of
the Midnight Sun!
Thou art Man and Woman!
MAN and BEAST!
Unity in Multiplicity!
The Many in ONE!O’ Baphomet! Lord of the Infinite Mysteries of True Midnight!
I seek Thee to Open the Gates of the Self’s own Light!
I beseech Thee to reveal the Heart of All within All,
to grant a Vision both Infernal and Divine!
All that I am,
between Head and Foot,
is Thine!Baph-Metis! Lord of the Horns!
Holy Androgyne! From Thy Double-Sexuality I am born!O’ Baphomet! Holder of the Flame of Gnosis!
I ask Thee to come forth!
As Thy servant I adjure Thee!
To bestow the Baptism of Wisdom,
to purge my Soul of the detritus of ages.
To uncover the Spirit’s Light in Man!
To breathe forth the Breath of Stars,
the Heart-Fire to fan.O’ Baphomet! Great Goat-God of Mendes!
Thy Wings are all Space and Thy Light every Star!
And Your Benediction the Blessing and the Curse of Life.
For that which we seek is found in the darkest places of Wisdom,
until we enter the Gates of Thy Kingdom!
Grant me the understanding that all shall be endured,
for in Your Light we illuminate the Darkest of Nights!Baph-Metis! Lord of the Horns!
Holy Androgyne! From Thy Double-Sexuality I am born!*Text & image © P. Larabee & Aeon Sophia Press, from Whisperings from the Void.
