Aleister Crowley was one of the most intriguing characters of the 20th century. He was a poet, a ceremonial magician, a mountaineer, an alchemist, a philosopher, a spy, and a self-described sex and drug addict. He was also known as “The Beast”, a title given to him by his own MOTHER, and the “wickedest man in the world.” SOURCES The Book of the Law; by Aleister Crowley and Rose Edith Crowley Magick; by Aleister Crowley  Richmond, Keith (2012).
