I always like to push the boundaries of tarot – after all, tarot does cover everything! We recently started discussing the writings of Kenneth Grant! Who is he? He was secretary for Aleister Crowley and was present when the final choice for the images of the Thoth tarot deck was decided in Hastings with Frieda Harris and Dion Fortune.

After Crowley’s death he created his own magical orders, including the New Isis Lodge, and the Typhonian OTO. He is best known for his Typhonian Trilogies, 9 books in all. These are very dense descriptions of magical and mystical lore that expands upon Crowley’s work, and are considered difficult to read.

For years I was ploughing a lonely furrow, but now on Patreon we recently discovered a common passion in him, and I am learning so much.
