Babalon the Mother references

I had the good fortune to be invited to present to O.T.O. Austria at a virtual salon. Saturday April 25 I presented on “Babalon the Mother”. Here’s a follow up with the works I referenced. You might also be interested in my post about life as an offering to Nuit which includes a link to my Nuit practice video.

I should also note that an attendee sent me a chat note during the presentation that I didn’t catch until the end of the meeting. The Book of the Law, 1:15: “Now ye shall know that the chosen priest & apostle of infinite space is the prince-priest the Beast; and in his woman called the Scarlet Woman is all power given.”
