Description
In this offering, we honor Jack Parsons himself, who wrote, “We are the Witchcraft” among other writings. Jack Parsons was a rocket engineer and chemist, whose work eventually made space travel possible. He was a Thelemite who ran one of Aleister Crowley’s branches in California and is known for creating the Babylon Working.
He was part of what was called the “Suicide Squad” due to his work with explosives long before the movies came out. His professional work was not mentioned for a long time due to his Magickal activities, but now that we are finally more open about Witchcraft in general, he is beginning to receive the credit he is due.
Learn about Jack’s life, and how you might seek him as a benefactor, or simply be inspired by his work. [1 hour, 33 minute audio-video lecture, 5 minute audio-video supplemental material, PDF presentation slides, notes and references.]
