Essential reading for all students of Thelema
First published in Detroit in 1919, the legendary Blue Equinox was Aleister Crowley’s first attempt to publicize the principles and aims of the magical secret society, Ordo Templi Orientis (O.T.O.), and its allied order, the A∴A∴. In it, Crowley lays out the esoteric, social, ethical, and philosophical ideas that he believed provided the framework for a new ethics and the liberated morality of the future. Upon publication, the book was threatened with suppression by the authorities of the day. Many of the papers in Blue Equinox anticipated social liberties we tend to take for granted today.
Blue Equinox opens with Crowley’s poem "Hymn to Pan," a devotional work devoted to the ancient Greek deity, Pan. This is followed by an editorial, in which Crowley discusses Thelema, the O.T.O. and the A∴A∴, and the important role which he believed they had to play in the Aeon of Horus. It includes such topics as The Law of Liberty, The Gnostic Mass, and An Open Letter to Those Who May Wish to Join the Order.
