You see, with world war one going on, Nicholas II had to depart for the eastern front to lead the Russian empire's troops. With Nicholas away as commander-in-chief of the army, his wife the Tsarina Alexandra was left in charge as ruler.

This is why Yusupov and co killed him-- they feared that his influence over the Tsarina would doom the Russian monarchy to destruction.

Rationalism & science are completely different. The former had it that knowledge could be obtained through rational means alone, whilst the latter had it that the knowledge of the former was no more than untested hypotheses. Although the methodology of science is rational, many of its conclusions are anything but, there's no way that rational thought alone would have led to quantum mechanics, for example.

I know you didn't write the "ice berg", but mearly breaking it down step by step, this, along with many other so called "Ice Bergs" floating around the interwebs.....this is painfully all out of decending order. So many lower topics should be higher on the list, and others should be lower, also so many other things left off, appreciate your breakdown of each topic, as they appear in the list, definitely some of mostly wildly deep expansive rabbit holes one can ever go down. And alot of them intersect time and time again, Each topic you could easily do 10 or more hours each, if anyone really wants to go deep, but this is a great introductory for anyone looking to dig into some crazy shit, whether you believe it or not, others did, and that's why all this actually exists.
Will there ever be a definitive list of which one outranks the other, besides each and everyone giving their own opinion regarding the ranks? Are all the lists subjective or is there a definitive objective list one can refer to? Do you know about the Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth and His Father's kingdom?
@@TimYevsmanskiy probably not, this is a good ice berg dont get me wrong, a lot of good info here,, it covers alot of ground, but, it's just scratching the surface, the esoteric and occult world is mind boggling, like I have a comprehensive understanding of most esoteric studies, but I don't even think I could put together a full list, it's too vast, but yeah, this list is kind of a hodge podge, list with alot of topics just put into random categories of what goes deeper with no rhyme or reason .

What a great video, you have gained a new subscriber. Due to certain things that have been going on my life recently I have been looking more and more in tocthe occult. Thanks to your video have have more areas to look in to.
Your clip on Rasputin is totally wrong. The communists didn’t assassinate Rasputin, but aristocrats. This is relevant in a video about the paranormal because before his death he told the empress that if he was killed by peasants the royal family would survive, but if he was killed by nobles they’d all die. Also he didn’t swear off alcohol, he was a life-long alcoholic. I learned all this as a high school freshman. Thumbs down.
Honestly the iceberg is much much deeper than this but whatever only so much non occultists can actually understand or catch onto. Like you missed so much from islamic and eastern ocult and entirely left out the Hindu, then theres sooooooo much historical occult stuff that is also scientific and ww2 is a treasure trove of ocult mayhem.
Almost like its focused topically. Almost like people are limited, and differ. Fancy that. But of course its a problem when others aren't perfect validating reflections. Of people they've never met.
When people start using the word “perfect” which does not exist this suggests absolute aka all or nothing thinking/consciousness which is typical human (3D) consciousness and not the goal of 5D consciousness for humanity. Very informative video 🤗
Everything you mentioned is only the tip of the iceberg, not the iceberg entirely. You did an excellent job portraying a brief history of christianity and satanism. You completely ignored confucianism, the various branches of islam, buddhism, native spirituality and the knowledge of the old inca, aztec and mayan empires.

The main reason Enoch and Hermes overlap is because they are both taken directly to the heavens before death.

Hermetc philosophy, Carl Jung and Rudolph Steiner provides so much deep understanding of the universe and man. Gnosticism and Kabbalah goes on to rbbit hole of complex spiritual systems, practices. Sometimes they can get tricky. But Hermeticism lays the foundation of it all. It's simple yet expansive. "All truths are but half truths" even great philosophers today should know this. People might wander from a religionist to seeker of occult or vice versa, and Ego is very tricky, Steiner reminds us that Christ is the balance of yin and yang. Jung encourages us to embrace the shadow. Sometimes some occultist thought they can harness the power of the universe and forget that they are the universe themselves. Religionists become dogmatic and ignorant. Both were entitled to the divine ascension but forget Love.
So much priceless work from Jung, Steiner, and Manly Hall. Manly Halls lectures and books have helped me in ways I cannot articulate. One of the best minds in history in my opinion. Crazy he finished The Secret Teachings of All Ages at 27 years old.
@@imFurbs I joined the the Theosophical Society at age 27 to pay homage to this fact. Manly P. Hall is greatly revered in this organization and he has original publishings dedicated to the society. Dude was obviously a theosophist in his childhood thinking. His magnum opus seems to be written by someone who lived 3 of his lifetimes at that time.
I’m surprised Sabbatai Zevi is mentioned (well, not that he’s mentioned) but that Jacob Frank isn’t. Jacob Frank is one biggest inheritors of Zevi’s following; he claimed he was the reincarnation of Zevi, and then started about taking the Sabbaitian beliefs in his own direction (one that allegedly involved what could be called “acts of deviance” and sinning in order to somehow receive a certain level of grace/forgiveness, and secrecy about one’s true beliefs (like the practices of Donmeh, followers of Sabbatai Zevi who outwardly claimed to be Muslims but privately practiced something else). The Franks are at the heart of so many conspiracy theories, most antiSemitc in nature, though there’s some truth in them, and the details of Frankism and connections to other groups gets clouded by time, and the hot button issue of antiSemitism (connections to the historical Bavarian Illuminati, Continental Freemasonry, the Rothschilds, etc). It’s interesting to note that two large 20th century figures- Pope John Paul II and Louis Brandeis- both likely come from Frankist families (though there is no evidence that either of them were secret Frankists; John Paul II was obviously a deeply Catholic man, and Louis Brandeis was a liberal Jewish man.
howd you manage that? my unfortunate but interesting and maybe eventually promising situatoin came from a near death experience 10 years after taking the oath of the abyss...in al honesty I dont anyone truly ever crosses it permanently. working within magister templi or magus requires very specific goals when more is generally done by those who have had glimpses of the abyss but chill mostly in malkuth, yesod and tiphereth. the rest are situational and not really suited to day to day human life
@@Devin-zn9xv yes you're right because Judaism died in Babylon when they decided to incorporate black magic into their religion wrote the Talmud and corrupted the word of God and Soloman banned black magic and the six-pointed star is the seal of Solomon not the star of David, Judaism died thousands of years ago
Knowledge is concealed in many different ways. A symbol can have multiple meanings. Only the truly initiated know the truth. The occult will always be more fascinating than religion. Or did religion spring from the occult?
Why should knowledge be concealed? Why does one have to be "truly initiated" in order to understand the "truth?" If the truth is the truth, what fear does it contain in having to hide itself amongst certain groups? If we know a tree grows from the ground after you water it, and then after having been grown it is then to be used as wood for the fire, why then, should there be a practice in concealing "the truth" of how a tree "really grows"? Would those that conceal the matter only have something to gain or not gain by this concealment of knowledge? If the truth is not scared of being in the open, what then needs to be "concealed" and why? Pretty sure, we understand that rivers flow from upstream to downstream, why is that not being concealed? Maybe there's a secret way to make the river flow from downstream up? 😶🌫
I joined a secret occult society when I was 27 because I told myself at 13 that I would because I wanted to get to the bottom of the iceberg of occultism and the mystery of mysteries. I said "ain't no fkn way I'ma play this game called Life if I don't get the master key, rather than being stuck in a matrix, I want to meet the operators of it" and boy did I venture into the deepest of dens and covens as life went on. I learned a lot about why humanity is the way it is versus the condition of it and also how to attain the most in this life with ease but there's a huge cost to the occult path, you essentially lose your sanity, integrity, and your salvation. The greatest mystery of mysteries is the blood of Christ, the ultimate sacrifice on the cross. All occult orders try to integrate the Resurrection into their practice to pretend they are gods among men but they didn't sacrifice shit....Jesus sacrificed his eternal soul so that we may have eternal life instead of death due to our condition, the sinful nature we are born in. Yet he is still eternal. Thus God himself in the flesh came down and chilled with us for real for real, and the same Jews who prophesied about the messiah didn't recognize him. They though they knew God lol. So the mystery these occult organizations miss is that of Love and Grace that can only from the true God and not some lower case g god that they worship. I'm glad this video doesn't even touch the mysteries I've seen because humanity still ain't ready. Great iceberg video nonetheless, very nostalgic :)
Nonsense. The Christos/annointing/Divine Essence and resurrection was taught thousands of years prior. Your christianism tenets are found in the ancient Egyptian Mysteries, note for note. Even the most casual research reveals all this.
@@siriusfun lol yo I didn't say that these occult societies started the resurrection practices. I said they copy and practice it today as a ritual, to "play God" on this Earth. But that's all they can do, is play, and do ritual where as the resurrection of Jesus is a historical event that took place, and his spirit is the Holy Spirit that lives on, he's the Living God, where as most societies worship false dead gods, or unholy spirits. The Holy Spirit is a better teacher in this life. I know this because I was a member and I studied occultism my whole life. The ancient people of Kemet didn't even believe in Bodily Resurrection per se, they believed in the immortality of the soul, and the Egyptian resurrection story is just a myth. Jesus' Bodily resurrection was something most occult societies are seriously envious of and so most occult practices today are practiced with perversion of the holy scriptures and are fused with Christianity my guy, and you proved my point, even the mystery schools believe in the Holy Scriptures validity even if they choose to serve false gods, and so they copy other mysteries, that's what occultism does, it blends, Crowley did this......Don't even try to school me.
Dude, I would love to hear you talk about this if you're willing, no pressure. I'm very interested in the truth of how our world came to be. I'm tired of being lied to.
Hey dude just abit of a criticism from your video and the last segment of the gateway experience ,I believe your summary did a disservice to it and what it is.I can tell you either lacked time but please deep into the research abit deeper the gateway experience is so much more ,in short its a correct and my opinion only guide to how correctly concentrate consciousness, yes astral projection and travel are part of it but its very small part of it, go into the positives and not the weaponisiasion such as colour healing ,facus 25 the state of no time or space where one can transcend time, Physical enhancement and cellular regeneration ( or cellular control or consciousness) but great work on the other hand I would recommend you try it ,its not an occult thing more of a guided meditation / Scientific method and the unknown combined.
Your comment about the Belizean Grove being the "West Coast equivalent" of the Bohemian Grove/Club is wrong because Belize isn't on the west coast of North America, but also because Bohemian Grove is north of San Francisco. It is literally a west coast club.

This is only the second video mentioning tarot lore, that has dug deep enough to give props to Pamela Colman Smith. That woman was incredible and totally robbed. She did automatic writing in trance, and in that state, received mostly unnamed intelligence which she would use in the artwork for 100% of the first deck. Once she did the hard work (let's face it, the artwork on the cards IS the vast majority of the esoteric formulations) they cut out and started hanging with royals in occult circles, and left Pamela behind. The new book on her life (currently on sale from $50 to $35) is a masterpiece. Written by the top 10 lifelong scholars of her work, it weighs about 5 lbs and includes probably 80% full color archival-quality scans. There's a section with her journal entries where she jotted down the symbols and words received during her trance sessions, and each is cross-referenced by the scholars as to the meanings behind them....plus, of course, her tarot work, as well as the artwork she did for local children's books and included. Can you imagine being a lil kid and getting this badass comic book, having no clue that the lessons and fables you're reading and learning from, came from a deep channeling session!? Only one company has taken the moral objective in trying to fix this injustice, and actually paid for their Rider-Waite decks to be totally repressed using the exact pigments she used (her intentional use of many shades and depth of color was heavily contrasted once she'd gotten ghosted, leaving colors of the Rider-Waite unneccissarily dramatic, and lacking much of Colman's large varity of colors to represent the dates, intensity, gender, planet, etc. The box they're in say in big, bold letters "SMITH-WAITE", and include 4 bonus cards not associated with tarot that are water color illustrations she made at the height of her craft. The cards are boarderless, using the entire 6 inch length for the art and placing various numbers and symbols WITHIN the card, rather than forcing the art to become much smaller by putting them around the edges....the way Smith painted them. Finally and very much appreciated to a deck collector and obsessed tarot nerd like myself, the card stock used is as fine a texture and consistency as I've ever seen...stiff enough to withstand many shuffles, but pliable enough to avoid bending. Those are also on sale! Best money I've spent in a long time! I've actually never been a rabid fan of that deck..there are others with MUCH more specificity available (Especially decks having to do with Hermetic and/or Kabbalistic symbolism, since they contain not only the conventional associations, but also the surviving ancient knowledge of the soul's refinement through the cosmic incarnation stages...a process Joseph Campbell would later coin "The Heroes Journey" - containing lore that directly correlate back to pre-dynastic Egypt and likely long before)...these folks were true scientists and made up the first alchemists who held such strict standards in both etheric and alchemical experimentation, that they coined and gifted the "scientific method" to the Enlightenment Age - BUT Colman's use of so many shades and color depth - many of which are never repeated and are specific to only 1 card, has totally made me hold them among my top 5 decks. It's HER work that whispers to the subconscious mind so a sensitive person wouldn't even need to study the numerology, astrology, elemental, and archetypal figures in the cards. Her original art feels lived in, lovingly and stridently labored over, and effortlessly contextual. The deck celebrates this release by including 4 bonus cards not associated with divination featuring some of her finest later work...yet they immediately felt at home, which is amazing to me, since I've been a tarot scholar with a specific set of variables, for 20 years. I immediately began to use these as signifier cards, or flags that I may need to stop and save the spread for another day. Long story long, her art truly increased the specificity and approachability of the cards, that I actually feel that it's not hyperbolic to say it can stand next to the iChing in terms of providing much more variable potential, and a visual guide in drawing those potentials down to a very specific summary with confidence. Thank you for attending my impassioned Ted Talk xD

as far as the african esotericism is concerned, i wouldnt say its bastardized. its basis in african traditional religion, regardless of where in the diaspora, is the acknowledgment of ancestors and natural world, along with self prosperity/preservation. The youth in many points of the diaspora have looked towards older forms of traditions and spirituality(Ifa, voudou in haiti, hoodoo in america, palo, etc.) over the predominate christian environments they reside in. the difference between ATR and the other orders and orgs mentioned is that theres not always initiations, theyre mostly rare, most people follow along from family and friends . there also isnt any widespread agenda setting or attempts to spread influence with ATR as seen with rosicrusians and alike. I say that to say theres more than meets the eye as far as the amount of practitioners there are, for example theres women in the christian church who know roots but wont tell about it, and ive heard of prisons allowing inmates to have feast days for orishas. Loved the video, this is the longest comment ive ever left lol
7:38 So much of the original Golden Dawn ritual symbolism is based on Egyptian imagery and archetypes. There's a surprising lack of Christian symbolism in the Golden Dawn. Now Waite's RR et AC is rife with Christian symbolism. Waite was a Catholic and wrote his Adeptus grades as a kind of Christ-Like experience. Too often anything Jewish or Hebraic gets lumped in with Christianity and we get misleading terms like "Judeo-Christian." Even the basic cosmology is very different, such as the basic nature of Angels or Demons, or even God itself. The extensive use of Hebrew does not imply Christian symbols, especially with all of the Egyptian symbols and language in use in the GD grade rituals. Even their Astral Temple was said to reside in Egypt.

I know you didn't write the "ice berg", but mearly breaking it down step by step, this, along with many other so called "Ice Bergs" floating around the interwebs.....this is painfully all out of decending order.
So many lower topics should be higher on the list, and others should be lower, also so many other things left off, appreciate your breakdown of each topic, as they appear in the list, definitely some of mostly wildly deep expansive rabbit holes one can ever go down. And alot of them intersect time and time again, Each topic you could easily do 10 or more hours each, if anyone really wants to go deep, but this is a great introductory for anyone looking to dig into some crazy shit, whether you believe it or not, others did, and that's why all this actually exists.
Will there ever be a definitive list of which one outranks the other, besides each and everyone giving their own opinion regarding the ranks?
Are all the lists subjective or is there a definitive objective list one can refer to?
Do you know about the Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth and His Father's kingdom?
@@TimYevsmanskiy probably not, this is a good ice berg dont get me wrong, a lot of good info here,, it covers alot of ground, but, it's just scratching the surface, the esoteric and occult world is mind boggling, like I have a comprehensive understanding of most esoteric studies, but I don't even think I could put together a full list, it's too vast, but yeah, this list is kind of a hodge podge, list with alot of topics just put into random categories of what goes deeper with no rhyme or reason . It's more like a spider web of things that intersect,

Your clip on Rasputin is totally wrong. The communists didn’t assassinate Rasputin, but aristocrats. This is relevant in a video about the paranormal because before his death he told the empress that if he was killed by peasants the royal family would survive, but if he was killed by nobles they’d all die. Also he didn’t swear off alcohol, he was a life-long alcoholic. I learned all this as a high school freshman.
Thumbs down.
Rasputin was assasinated and replaced earlier before his "assasination"

Hello, I'm have been a Christian for going on 2 years now and I'd like to tell you that I have and am a big fan you are honest and and very informative!,with all the false teachers and unsound doctrine I was blessed to have found you God bless you 🙏
Hermetc philosophy, Carl Jung and Rudolph Steiner provides so much deep understanding of the universe and man. Gnosticism and Kabbalah goes on to rbbit hole of complex spiritual systems, practices. Sometimes they can get tricky. But Hermeticism lays the foundation of it all. It's simple yet expansive.
"All truths are but half truths" even great philosophers today should know this.
People might wander from a religionist to seeker of occult or vice versa, and Ego is very tricky, Steiner reminds us that Christ is the balance of yin and yang. Jung encourages us to embrace the shadow. Sometimes some occultist thought they can harness the power of the universe and forget that they are the universe themselves. Religionists become dogmatic and ignorant. Both were entitled to the divine ascension but forget Love.
Wise words woven. Equilibrium is the key and the medium. The intersection between all forms of duality and plurality. Stay in peace, amem.
So much priceless work from Jung, Steiner, and Manly Hall. Manly Halls lectures and books have helped me in ways I cannot articulate. One of the best minds in history in my opinion. Crazy he finished The Secret Teachings of All Ages at 27 years old.

“But you’d be surprised how the CHARLES FORT” lmao
I’m surprised Sabbatai Zevi is mentioned (well, not that he’s mentioned) but that Jacob Frank isn’t. Jacob Frank is one biggest inheritors of Zevi’s following; he claimed he was the reincarnation of Zevi, and then started about taking the Sabbaitian beliefs in his own direction (one that allegedly involved what could be called “acts of deviance” and sinning in order to somehow receive a certain level of grace/forgiveness, and secrecy about one’s true beliefs (like the practices of Donmeh, followers of Sabbatai Zevi who outwardly claimed to be Muslims but privately practiced something else). The Franks are at the heart of so many conspiracy theories, most antiSemitc in nature, though there’s some truth in them, and the details of Frankism and connections to other groups gets clouded by time, and the hot button issue of antiSemitism (connections to the historical Bavarian Illuminati, Continental Freemasonry, the Rothschilds, etc). It’s interesting to note that two large 20th century figures- Pope John Paul II and Louis Brandeis- both likely come from Frankist families (though there is no evidence that either of them were secret Frankists; John Paul II was obviously a deeply Catholic man, and Louis Brandeis was a liberal Jewish man.

1:35 Fun Fact🎉:
U.S. Gov has the patent on it.
You're the next Mr. Mythos
Knowledge is concealed in many different ways. A symbol can have multiple meanings. Only the truly initiated know the truth.
The occult will always be more fascinating than religion. Or did religion spring from the occult?
Why should knowledge be concealed?
Why does one have to be "truly initiated" in order to understand the "truth?"
If the truth is the truth, what fear does it contain in having to hide itself amongst certain groups?
If we know a tree grows from the ground after you water it, and then after having been grown it is then to be used as wood for the fire,
why then, should there be a practice in concealing "the truth" of how a tree "really grows"?
Would those that conceal the matter only have something to gain or not gain by this concealment of knowledge?
If the truth is not scared of being in the open, what then needs to be "concealed" and why?
Pretty sure, we understand that rivers flow from upstream to downstream, why is that not being concealed?
Maybe there's a secret way to make the river flow from downstream up? 😶🌫
You know it is bad when where you live is on the bottom of the visit 💀
I joined a secret occult society when I was 27 because I told myself at 13 that I would because I wanted to get to the bottom of the iceberg of occultism and the mystery of mysteries. I said "ain't no fkn way I'ma play this game called Life if I don't get the master key, rather than being stuck in a matrix, I want to meet the operators of it" and boy did I venture into the deepest of dens and covens as life went on. I learned a lot about why humanity is the way it is versus the condition of it and also how to attain the most in this life with ease but there's a huge cost to the occult path, you essentially lose your sanity, integrity, and your salvation. The greatest mystery of mysteries is the blood of Christ, the ultimate sacrifice on the cross. All occult orders try to integrate the Resurrection into their practice to pretend they are gods among men but they didn't sacrifice shit....Jesus sacrificed his eternal soul so that we may have eternal life instead of death due to our condition, the sinful nature we are born in. Yet he is still eternal. Thus God himself in the flesh came down and chilled with us for real for real, and the same Jews who prophesied about the messiah didn't recognize him. They though they knew God lol. So the mystery these occult organizations miss is that of Love and Grace that can only from the true God and not some lower case g god that they worship. I'm glad this video doesn't even touch the mysteries I've seen because humanity still ain't ready. Great iceberg video nonetheless, very nostalgic :)
I'm glad you came to that conclusion 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Nonsense.
The Christos/annointing/Divine Essence and resurrection was taught thousands of years prior. Your christianism tenets are found in the ancient Egyptian Mysteries, note for note.
Even the most casual research reveals all this.
@@siriusfun note for note? You going to need to quantify that statement.
@@siriusfun lol yo I didn't say that these occult societies started the resurrection practices. I said they copy and practice it today as a ritual, to "play God" on this Earth. But that's all they can do, is play, and do ritual where as the resurrection of Jesus is a historical event that took place, and his spirit is the Holy Spirit that lives on, he's the Living God, where as most societies worship false dead gods, or unholy spirits. The Holy Spirit is a better teacher in this life.
I know this because I was a member and I studied occultism my whole life. The ancient people of Kemet didn't even believe in Bodily Resurrection per se, they believed in the immortality of the soul, and the Egyptian resurrection story is just a myth. Jesus' Bodily resurrection was something most occult societies are seriously envious of and so most occult practices today are practiced with perversion of the holy scriptures and are fused with Christianity my guy, and you proved my point, even the mystery schools believe in the Holy Scriptures validity even if they choose to serve false gods, and so they copy other mysteries, that's what occultism does, it blends, Crowley did this......Don't even try to school me.
Dude, I would love to hear you talk about this if you're willing, no pressure. I'm very interested in the truth of how our world came to be. I'm tired of being lied to.
Anybody know any good resources for knowledge like this online?

Hey dude just abit of a criticism from your video and the last segment of the gateway experience ,I believe your summary did a disservice to it and what it is.I can tell you either lacked time but please deep into the research abit deeper the gateway experience is so much more ,in short its a correct and my opinion only guide to how correctly concentrate consciousness, yes astral projection and travel are part of it but its very small part of it, go into the positives and not the weaponisiasion such as colour healing ,facus 25 the state of no time or space where one can transcend time, Physical enhancement and cellular regeneration ( or cellular control or consciousness) but great work on the other hand I would recommend you try it ,its not an occult thing more of a guided meditation / Scientific method and the unknown combined.

This is only the second video mentioning tarot lore, that has dug deep enough to give props to Pamela Colman Smith. That woman was incredible and totally robbed. She did automatic writing in trance, and in that state, received mostly unnamed intelligence which she would use in the artwork for 100% of the first deck. Once she did the hard work (let's face it, the artwork on the cards IS the vast majority of the esoteric formulations) they cut out and started hanging with royals in occult circles, and left Pamela behind. The new book on her life (currently on sale from $50 to $35) is a masterpiece. Written by the top 10 lifelong scholars of her work, it weighs about 5 lbs and includes probably 80% full color archival-quality scans. There's a section with her journal entries where she jotted down the symbols and words received during her trance sessions, and each is cross-referenced by the scholars as to the meanings behind them....plus, of course, her tarot work, as well as the artwork she did for local children's books and included. Can you imagine being a lil kid and getting this badass comic book, having no clue that the lessons and fables you're reading and learning from, came from a deep channeling session!? Only one company has taken the moral objective in trying to fix this injustice, and actually paid for their Rider-Waite decks to be totally repressed using the exact pigments she used (her intentional use of many shades and depth of color was heavily contrasted once she'd gotten ghosted, leaving colors of the Rider-Waite unneccissarily dramatic, and lacking much of Colman's large varity of colors to represent the dates, intensity, gender, planet, etc. The box they're in say in big, bold letters "SMITH-WAITE", and include 4 bonus cards not associated with tarot that are water color illustrations she made at the height of her craft. The cards are boarderless, using the entire 6 inch length for the art and placing various numbers and symbols WITHIN the card, rather than forcing the art to become much smaller by putting them around the edges....the way Smith painted them. Finally and very much appreciated to a deck collector and obsessed tarot nerd like myself, the card stock used is as fine a texture and consistency as I've ever seen...stiff enough to withstand many shuffles, but pliable enough to avoid bending. Those are also on sale! Best money I've spent in a long time! I've actually never been a rabid fan of that deck..there are others with MUCH more specificity available (Especially decks having to do with Hermetic and/or Kabbalistic symbolism, since they contain not only the conventional associations, but also the surviving ancient knowledge of the soul's refinement through the cosmic incarnation stages...a process Joseph Campbell would later coin "The Heroes Journey" - containing lore that directly correlate back to pre-dynastic Egypt and likely long before)...these folks were true scientists and made up the first alchemists who held such strict standards in both etheric and alchemical experimentation, that they coined and gifted the "scientific method" to the Enlightenment Age - BUT Colman's use of so many shades and color depth - many of which are never repeated and are specific to only 1 card, has totally made me hold them among my top 5 decks. It's HER work that whispers to the subconscious mind so a sensitive person wouldn't even need to study the numerology, astrology, elemental, and archetypal figures in the cards. Her original art feels lived in, lovingly and stridently labored over, and effortlessly contextual. The deck celebrates this release by including 4 bonus cards not associated with divination featuring some of her finest later work...yet they immediately felt at home, which is amazing to me, since I've been a tarot scholar with a specific set of variables, for 20 years. I immediately began to use these as signifier cards, or flags that I may need to stop and save the spread for another day. Long story long, her art truly increased the specificity and approachability of the cards, that I actually feel that it's not hyperbolic to say it can stand next to the iChing in terms of providing much more variable potential, and a visual guide in drawing those potentials down to a very specific summary with confidence. Thank you for attending my impassioned Ted Talk xD

as far as the african esotericism is concerned, i wouldnt say its bastardized. its basis in african traditional religion, regardless of where in the diaspora, is the acknowledgment of ancestors and natural world, along with self prosperity/preservation. The youth in many points of the diaspora have looked towards older forms of traditions and spirituality(Ifa, voudou in haiti, hoodoo in america, palo, etc.) over the predominate christian environments they reside in. the difference between ATR and the other orders and orgs mentioned is that theres not always initiations, theyre mostly rare, most people follow along from family and friends . there also isnt any widespread agenda setting or attempts to spread influence with ATR as seen with rosicrusians and alike. I say that to say theres more than meets the eye as far as the amount of practitioners there are, for example theres women in the christian church who know roots but wont tell about it, and ive heard of prisons allowing inmates to have feast days for orishas.
Loved the video, this is the longest comment ive ever left lol
omg yes. its called not knowing culture.
7:38 So much of the original Golden Dawn ritual symbolism is based on Egyptian imagery and archetypes. There's a surprising lack of Christian symbolism in the Golden Dawn. Now Waite's RR et AC is rife with Christian symbolism. Waite was a Catholic and wrote his Adeptus grades as a kind of Christ-Like experience.
Too often anything Jewish or Hebraic gets lumped in with Christianity and we get misleading terms like "Judeo-Christian." Even the basic cosmology is very different, such as the basic nature of Angels or Demons, or even God itself.
The extensive use of Hebrew does not imply Christian symbols, especially with all of the Egyptian symbols and language in use in the GD grade rituals. Even their Astral Temple was said to reside in Egypt.
