The Newsroom (23 November 2007). "House of the unholy". The Scotsman. Archived from the original on 16 September 2015. To [Crowley] the greatest aim of the magician was to merge with a higher power connected to the wellsprings of the universe, but he did not trouble himself too much to define that power consistently; sometimes it was God, sometimes the One, sometimes a goddess, and sometimes one's own Holy Guardian Angel or higher self. In the last analysis he was content for the nature of divinity to remain a mystery. As a result, he wrote at times like an atheist, at times like a monotheist, and at others like a polytheist. When he returned to England, a doctor diagnosed Crowley with asthma. The prescribed remedy? Powerful opiates. It was a different time. Crowley became hopelessly addicted to the drug. I'm sure he cared about his asthma a lot less though.

In November 1909, Crowley and Neuburg travelled to Algeria, touring the desert from El Arba to Aumale, Bou Saâda, and then Dā'leh Addin, with Crowley reciting the Quran on a daily basis. [91] :186–202 During the trip he invoked the thirty aethyrs of Enochian magic, with Neuburg recording the results, later published in The Equinox as The Vision and the Voice. Following a mountaintop sex magic ritual, Crowley also performed an evocation to the demon Choronzon involving blood sacrifice, and considered the results to be a watershed in his magical career. [92] Returning to London in January 1910, Crowley found that Mathers was suing him for publishing Golden Dawn secrets in The Equinox; the court found in favour of Crowley. The case was widely reported in the press, with Crowley gaining wider fame. [93] Crowley enjoyed this, and played up to the sensationalist stereotype of being a Satanist and advocate of human sacrifice, despite being neither.

Biographer Tobias Churton considered Crowley "a pioneer of consciousness research". [309] Hutton noted that Crowley had "an important place in the history of modern Western responses to Oriental spiritual traditions", [310] while Sutin thought that he had made "distinctly original contributions" to the study of yoga in the West. [311] Despite it being against the law in the 1800s, Crowley was bisexual. It’s highly believed that his first mystical experience was brought on by his first romantic encounter with another man.

Crowley was bisexual, but exhibited a preference for women, [272] with his relationships with men being fewer and mostly in the early part of his life. [234] In particular he had an attraction toward "exotic women", [273] and claimed to have fallen in love on multiple occasions; Kaczynski stated that "when he loved, he did so with his whole being, but the passion was typically short-lived". [274] Even in later life, Crowley was able to attract young bohemian women to be his lovers, largely due to his charisma. [275] He applied the term "Scarlet Woman" to various female lovers whom he believed played an important role in his magical work. [276] During homosexual acts, he usually played 'the passive role', [277] which Booth believed "appealed to his masochistic side". [278] An underlying theme in many of his writings is that spiritual enlightenment arises through transgressing socio-sexual norms. [279] Crowley advocated complete sexual freedom for both men and women. [280] He argued that homosexual and bisexual people should not suppress their sexual orientation, [234] commenting that a person "must not be ashamed or afraid of being homosexual if he happens to be so at heart; he must not attempt to violate his own true nature because of public opinion, or medieval morality, or religious prejudice which would wish he were otherwise." [281] On other issues he adopted a more conservative attitude; he opposed abortion on moral grounds, believing that no woman following her True Will would ever desire one. [282] Crowley also began to teach her divination — she had a choice of discipline and opted for the I Ching.

Ian Fleming, the creator of James Bond, was an intelligence officer when Crowley was working as an intelligence agent. Rumor has it that the two had a plan to lure Rudolf Hess, a high-ranking Nazi officer, to a meeting of the occult with Crowley. Allegedly, the goal was to have Crowley use his abilities to interrogate Hess, but no word on whether or not the scheme worked.Can't remember the title or the author of a book?

Growing up Crowley was a big chess fan. While attending Cambridge University he played the game for two hours each day. He even considered becoming a professional chess player. The historian Alex Owen noted that Crowley adhered to the "modus operandi" of the Decadent movement throughout his life. [226] Hamnett, Nina (2007). Laughing Torso: Reminiscences of Nina Hamnett.

It was whilst at Cambridge that Crowley adopted the moniker ‘Aleister’ and developed a passion for chess.
