ESPionage
All forms of espionage require some form of "6th sense" or strong intuition for survival.
PSIOPS
There is a tradition of Spooks and Wizards consorting since Elizabethan spymaster Walsingham recruited magus John Dee for his MI spy network. The unholy alliance continues to this day in Psionics and Psychotronics and PsiOps - the weaponization of the occult arts, even if under new "more scientific" names. The modern version spawned psionics, psychotronics, and PsiOps – the weaponization of occult mental focus. Extreme psychic countermeasures and attack can range from attacks on the energy body to organs of the target. Usually, the specific target in arcane assassination is the heart or brain – heart attack or stroke are the methods of choice. Walsingham proved that intelligence equaled power. He recruited educated young men--like playwright Christopher Marlowe--random lowlifes, and traveling merchants. Hmmm, writers, jugglers and magicians, again? Magicians and alchemists have always made potions, nostrums, tonics, even poisons. It is part of their stock in trade. Dee is probably best known for his deep involvement in skrying, magic and mystery. The Elizabethan Magus advanced the fields of mathematics, mapmaking, and navigation. His interests included alchemy, mysticism, and astrology. Dee's personal library was one of the largest in Europe. His obsessions, like Crowley’s, also included the pursuit of angels and spirits; he claimed to summon the divine secrets of the universe from angels and archangels. Following the examples of his predecessors, Crowley’s promotion of drugs, used for induced psychotic states and sexual abandon, was followed by Tavistock Institute sponsorship. His contemporary Carl Jung (1975-1961) provided the science; Crowley laid down the hedonistic drug, sex, and magick philosophy. Both saw the death of the old society but not the psychedelic rebirth of the new paradigm. With his slow-motion magick, his long-term intentional influence, it was Crowley who eventually pulled the cosmic trigger on a cultural revolution with an unlikely accomplice – the CIA. The infamous MK Ultra program of the CIA dosed unsuspecting CIA officials with LSD, and their reactions were studied like "guinea pigs". Later, acid was turned on the unsuspecting general population. Curiously, the LSD “counter-culture” of the 1960s, the “student revolution”, was financed by $25 million from the CIA to deliberately ruin the peace movement. LSD use continues at a steady rate in the youth drug scene throughout generations; it just doesn't get the press it once did.. In their own CIA Black Ops program, Astral travel became Remote Viewing and psychism became Psychotronics, weaponized ESP influencing the mindbody of another at a distance, often with malevolence. It gave new meaning to ESPionage. Crowley’s occult fighting with MacGregor Mathers is well known and perhaps the exemplar of psychic attack. Psychedelic cults took root in the U.S. and spread from San Francisco to Europe. The mystic arts, such as astrology and tarot became commonplace. Though he didn’t live to see it, Crowley got his New Age, even if the results seem a little childish or narcissistic to those of a more mature disposition. Broader than reform, deeper than revolution, this benign conspiracy for a new human agenda triggered chaotic cultural evolution even if polarity and stress undergird it. The Flower Children and drugs and free sex Hippies were followed by disenfranchised punks and disillusioned postmoderns and skeptical cyberfreaks. The Internet and cell phones have made voluntary ESP possible and soon we will have direct Brain-Computer interface. <>Aquarian Conspirators, 1980’s pioneers of social transformation, embodied the cultural imprint of Tavistock vision (Whole Earth Conspiracy). They used their mindbodies and PCs in the battle toward a higher consciousness, networking and urging a paradigm shift to a more mindful society. <>The way to heal the imbalances is to heal ourselves. Tools are shapers of their users, individuals fall into the thrall of institutions, "development" can be a trap. The way to heal ourselves is to pay attention, to witness, to share wisdom. But the wounds that won’t heal are the programmed personality disorders – neurotic childishness, self-absorption or immaturities promoted by the Tavistock agenda in schools, media, and therapy. “New Age” is an umbrella term to describe organizations which seem to exhibit one or more of the following beliefs: (1) All is one, all reality is part of the whole; (2) Everything is God and God is everything; (3) Man is God or a part of God; (4) Man never dies, but continues to live through reincarnation; (5) Man can create his own reality and/or values through transformed consciousness or altered states of consciousness.
OCCULT ESPionage
The Secret: To Dare, To Will, To Know, To Keep Silent
Intelligence is the key to understanding the world today. What spies have in common with magicians is an uncanny ability to connect the seemingly unconnected, to notice what goes on behind the scenes and to see through misdirection ~ it takes one to know one. Both have learned to synthesize and interprete data, how to pace and lead people (hypno-patsies) with rapport. The opening gambit of psychological warfare and mind control is flattery.
As trained observers, magicians and spies are adept at people-reading and keeping secrets; both are actors -- performers. Both are in secret societies that rely on craft and often use collaborators or confederates, and mentors. How much different is stealth and surveillance than a spell of invisibility? Each have their rules of engagement in the Great Work and the Great Game.
Clandestine Craft
Even some of the elements of tradecraft are the same. Both are cryptic, using encryptions and codes. Each has its own arcane language, symbols and rituals veiled from the profane. Remote Viewing or psychic spying is virtually identical with clairvoyance. Ceremonial psychodrama is played out in public, in personality cults and "ritual" murders.
Both use passwords and slogans for security. Cryptography is now ubiquitous. All domestic and foreign electronic communication is monitored by programs like Echelon. Spies and magicians both are cracking the Brain Code, the wetware of humanity.
Cryptocracy refers to a type of government where the real leaders are hidden. There may possibly be a fake government that appears to be in charge and this fake government might not know themselves that they are not in charge. It can also be used when referring to similar arrangements in organisations, orders, sects and cults.
<>Everywhere is Ground ZeroIn military terms psychic operations are called psychotronics. Adversaries are rogue psi operatives, psiwarriors who battle like sorcerers. Psychic self defense employs thought disruption, shielding techniques, mind drain and energy manipulation. Psionics is scientific magic ~ magecraft, the product of extraordinary human potential. Precogs, like analysts, are attuned to the future.
Deep Cover
They understand viscerally that things are often not what they seem. Both are masters of disguise, the hidden environment, intelligence, espionage, and covert action. Both aim to 'tweak the timeline' with small perturbations that pump up to macroscopic results, setting up currents of intentional influence. They also tweak minds by controlling the environment. No one can resist what they cannot detect.
Both are Inside Outsiders, working at the fringes of the System. The "outsider" aesthetic is charged by a desire to break free from the contrivances of tradition. They look boldly outside the system and deep within themselves for inspiration that arises directly from Creative Source.
Both work sub rosa. This phrase comes from the Latin meaning 'under the rose' for confidentiality, black ops. It comes from the Masonic fraternal tradition. The rose is the emblem of Horus, God of Silence and Secrecy, Crowley's "Crowned & Conquering Child."
Wise Guys
The Magnum Opus, the Great Work of alchemy, is the utter transformation of oneself into a being of light, an energy body. Crowley lived larger than life. If his webpresence is any indicator, his legend and influence is bigger than ever. He may have just been lurking in the Astral Plane, waiting for this psychic rebirth. Perhaps, cutting through spacetime, he made a leap of faith into the electronic Astral Plane.
Aleister Crowley is a Conspiracy of One - the number of THE MAGUS.

THE MAGUS
Arcana
The occult is one of the keys to world events; reality is also defined by politics. Like nature, history is cyclic. Drug companies are as powerful as banks and oil. Corporate feudalism has replaced democracy as the new elitist rule. Corporations compete with nation-states and international mafia-style crime rings.
It takes intelligence to be a magician, but a magician can also be an active agent of intelligence, figuratively and literally. The real question is, rather, how and why and who and what do these things serve? Restoring self and society is the essential wisdom of the Grail. But this quest can be coopted for narcissistic or pathological ends. The Secret Doctrine can introduce both positive and negative praeternatural forces.
Secret Missions
Who is served by the Holy Grail of occult knowledge? What is the Grail, and who does it serve? The secret is in the power and the power is in The Secret. It is a meaningless metaphor without the experiential process of self-transformation to back it up. That’s why it can’t be told. It is the panacea, a personal path of recovery for “what ails thee.” The Grail is a metaphor for connection to the mystical Source of everything, the ever-renewing Fount of all manifestation.
All paths lead toward a personal journey of transformation and enlightenment, though not all journeys fulfill the total potential of creativity, compassion, engagement, and spirituality. On a classical “hero’s journey” like Parcival, when you find the Grail, and are called to its service, no knowledge remains hidden for long. Magick was the first transdisciplinarian occupation, drawing on all areas of knowledge. Before science divorced the occult arts it was called Natural Philosophy.
Trump Card
A Magus is a “worker of magic” which eludes rational definition. The Magus is both a symbol of enlightenment and deception (disinformation)-- just like the Tarot card, The Magician, is a card of duality: Wisdom and Folly.
"Now you see it; now you don't" is the forte of the illusionist, the juggler of realities, who is master of Orwellian double-think – holding the tension of the opposites. You alternate between faith and skepticism until you go beyond the ordinary boundaries of both - "slay each thought with its opposite." Myths present themselves as systems of antinomies, or opposites: heaven/hell, good/evil, life/death. The Magus lives at the Paradox.
Traditionally, the Magus is one who can demonstrate hands-on magic: healing, transformative rituals, metaphor therapy, alchemical transmutations, charging of talismans, spirit comm, etc. Magick works on the principle that man is a microcosm.
Arts Magian
A modern Magus is any person who completes the circuit between heaven and Earth, one who seeks to bring forth the divine 'gold' within her or himself. He or she is also a Mentor, an Initiator, divining and reading the signs and revealing deeper purpose and meaning in “the godgame.”
But that is how the outer world sees it. Every Magus has a foot in both worlds. Their inner life is mercurial, a complex psychic layer-cake of inner planes of transcendent experience where quantum leaps of consciousness are possible and messages are exchanged with the Great Unknown.
Metaphysician
Perception of what is real and what is not dims and vanishes in a whirlwind of synchronicities. Imagination is reality. Magicians understand the world we live in, or think we live in, is an illusion, a construct of our own perceptual apparatus and a malleable interpretation of our brains.
But the hyperdimensional gifts of the Spirit come at a price. The magician taps into, becomes one with, an essence that pop culture calls The Force. Photons and phonons are quantized modes of vibration. This subatomic vibration of Light and Sound is the enlivening force, which feeds creation and allegedly responds to focused intention. Information controls and patterns energy.
Hermetics is a Spiritual Technology
For masters of the Hermetic Arts, all magick is wrought through this impressionable ether – the Astral Light --a plenum of potential, using true properties of nature, it's laws, forces, and principles. Science now describes it as the scalar physics of subspace. The mage seeks to selectively establish an internal order out of this chaos, then externalize it, according to his vision. He is the soul guide who initiates the transformation process.
The Hermetica included works on magic, alchemy, astrology, healing, gnosis, theurgy, ritual and philosophy. Sympathetic magic contends that like substances sharing an essence can influence one another through resonance effects. Likewise the hypnotic and magnetic qualities of charismatic individuals can create rapport with others to influence them.
