Late-Stage Babylon: Navigating the Post-Secular Spiritual Crisis
With a blend of scholarly analysis and personal reflection, this book invites readers to contemplate the complexities of our modern spiritual landscape.

In today's world, something strange is happening: Celebrities like Kat Von D and Russell Brand are embracing Catholicism, finding allure in its newfound status as a counter-cultural symbol among media personalities, influencers and the literati. Tech titans like Elon Musk and Peter Thiel are shirking the rationalist modus-operandi, making open allusions to the arcane, and even funding research into occult phenomena. U.S. senators stumble over their words in front of the watchful lenses of establishment news cameras and journalists, grappling with the notion of the potential existence of superintelligent life — which, if real,  would shatter the fabric of our rationalist paradigm.

This unexpected shift raises pressing questions: What is driving these influential individuals in secular liberal democracies to embrace ancient religious institutions,  fringe mysticism, and what only a decade ago would have been ridiculed as conspiracy? Why are they turning away from rationalism, the cornerstone of modern thought?

Late-Stage Babylon delves into this post-secular spiritual crisis, offering insights and guidance in navigating these turbulent swings of the spiritual pendulum. Drawing inspiration from the works of Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung, this book seeks to unravel the underlying motivations behind this cultural shift and its potential implications for the future.

From the heights of celebrity culture to the cutting edge of technological innovation, society is grappling with a profound spiritual hunger that traditional rationalist paradigms are failing to satisfy. As we enter a new age where the arcane and the obscure hold sway, Late-Stage Babylon serves as a guide, illuminating the path forward in the murky territory that's been brought about by the resurgence of long-dormant forces in the collective psyche.

What People are Saying About This

From the Publisher

"It's an absolute delight to witness Angie's fierce, urgent, and personal activation of Jung's most crucial observations. She shines a light on the West's shadows and casts shadows on the West's light. Fantastic."
– Gordon White

"From the insights of C.G. Jung to prophecies of Rudolf Steiner, from the reality behind today’s UFOlogy phenomenon to the truth about the coming Antichrist, get ready to be deprogrammed into the version of yourself that can make a difference."
