The Babalon Working

A Paul Weston lecture from Glastonbury Occult Conference March 21st 2015. The story of the Babalon Working is an occult legend. Rocket scientist Jack Parsons, future founder of Scientology L Ron Hubbard, and fiercely individual witch-woman artist Marjorie Cameron used the ideas of Aleister Crowley to try and bring forth a goddess into the modern world of the A Bomb and Gnostic revival. The results were mysterious, controversial, and even catastrophic. Paul uses material from his book Aleister Crowley and the Aeon of Horus to give unique insight into this story, including a contentious take on the role of Hubbard. Deliberately posted on the anniversary of Jack Parsons death. Thanks to Ezra for filming.
