The story of Jack Parsons, L. Ron Hubbard, and a little ritual they performed that summoned a woman from Mars..
No..ya just can't make this shit up!
====================================================================
"There's been little news on the project as of late but last year we heard that Ridley Scott was developing a miniseries based on the life of Jack Parsons, the co-founder of Jet Propulsion Laboratories and inventor of solid rocket fuel. Such a project proves how esoteric Scott is becoming in his maturity, seeing as he's also executive producing a Philip K. Dick novel and an adaption of Lords of Chaos, the landmark history of the Norwegian Black Metal scene.

Of course, any project based on Parsons' life would also deal with his involvement with Aleister Crowley and the OTO, as well as his infamous Babalon Working, undertaken with future Scientology guru L. Ron Hubbard in early 1946.

Parsons' stated intent was to summon a Scarlet Woman with whom he could give birth to the Moonchild, or avatar of the New Age of Antichrist. As fate would have it, that working would indeed summon just the woman Parsons desired- that being artist Marjorie Cameron- but no Moonchild ever came from their relationship.

But according to many Thelemites, not the least of whom was Crowley's would-be heir Kenneth Grant, the Babalon Working in fact achieved another goal, one which neither Parsons nor Hubbard seem to have foreseen as far as we can tell.

But that's the way magick often goes- you have your stated intent and then you have often have your workings taking on an entirely different life of their own in the public consciousness. It all leads one to question just who is using whom in these things.

Using a complicated magickal regimen based in Crowley's teachings and drawing upon the so-called Enochian magickal system of the Elizabethan Era, Parsons and Hubbard began the working on January 4, 1946 and continued on for several days thereafter. Upon finishing their work they took off for the desert. When they returned to the Parsonage, the Parsons family home in Pasadena, they were shocked to discover a woman fitting Parsons' specifications waiting for them, one Marjorie Cameron, a former map maker for the Navy.

At the same time half a world away, the so-called "ghost rockets" phenomenon began the modern UFO era, a marvelously appropriate event that led many to declare that the Babalon Working had opened a dimensional window and something- something being UFOs- had flown through it...."====http://secretsun.blogspot.com/2015/06/wi...be-my.html
