I recently had an interesting discussion with an old initiate [Oscar R. Schlag
who considered himself to be the re-incarnation of Carl
Kellner] who personally knew Crowley's heir Karl Germer [who wanted him
as leader of Crowley's O.T.O.], Jane Wolfe, Phyllis
Seckler, Hermann Joseph
Metzger [who saw in Schlag the highest initiate on earth], Henry Birven, Friedrich Lekve,
Gabriel
Montenegro, Walter Englert, Adolf Hemberger,
Eugen Grosche [who wanted him as
leader of the Fraternitas Saturni], the Brazilian leader
of Crowley's O.T.O. Marcelo
Ramos Motta (who saw in Schlag the worst enemy), Gerald Yorke, Kenneth and
Steffi Grant, the French leader of Memphis-Misraim Robert Ambelain, Ellic Howe,
Francis King, Karl R.H. Frick; and was a famulus of Rudolf Bernoulli and Eugen
Bleuler [leader of a famous Swiss mental asylum].
Schlag worked as a medium for Albert Schrenck-Notzing and Carl Gustav Jung
and created the expression, "Grenzgebiete der Psychologie" to scholarly
label PSI-phenomena and such mediumistic phenomena as ectoplasm and
materializations. Schlag told me several times that he astrally met Crowley who
had a very "special task" for him to fulfil.
Schlag lectured on Graphology and Yoga at Universities in the US and in Zuerich,
in the 1930s and 1940s.
A long-experienced psychotherapist, Schlag was
convinced that psychopathologies such as paranoia are based on repressed
homosexuality. This would certainly seem to be the case in occult circles in
general and in Thelema in particular. Let's examine the record ...
Theodor Reuss' activities as singer, spy, Mason and
founder of the Ordo Templi Orientis can be explained by his
unbalanced life of repressed homosexuality and, indeed, there were some
yellow-journalistic scandals (even into masonic circles) of some "nasty" Reuss
stories in his time, 1906.
The same was true of Aleister Crowley; up until 1912, he slept mostly with ugly
women, mostly repressing his homosexuality. He even had problems with
masturbation. After taking over the English branch of the O.T.O., he also
accepted the anally oriented XI° and the masturbatory oriented VIII°. A
noticeable decline in his works came with his taking over the O.T.O. He lost his
inner drives, probably in living out his sexuality. And his ugly behaviour
toward his admirers and his pupils is common knowledge.
Passive aggressivity, I assume, was Crowley's motivation for taking over the
XI°. The most authoritative O.T.O. papers he signed with "XI°" so
it seems clear to me that the XI° is higher than any IX° or X°! [see
also Crowley's Order system of 12 degrees where the 11th degree definitely is
above the X° and below the XII°]. Crowley received the Logos via his
anus and produced the new reality: the most important O.T.O. materials, his
child. It's also possible that Crowley had a small penis; in fact, I remember
that John Symonds, somewhere [in his biography "The Great Beast 666"], mentions
that he did: that he had a part of his penis amputated or lopped off in an
accident.
The devotion Crowley demanded from both men and women tended to attract
repressed homosexuals. Crowley preferred sleeping with ugly women and ugly men.
Ugliness is also an outer stain which may lead to homosexuality. Most gays dress
younger than their age, more like boys. Their hair is boyish. Most gays behave
shy, or else in an exaggeratedly macho manner (i.e. leather costumes). It seems
that gay men somehow dont' reach maturity, and so the XI° produces the
elixir of life, which an unmaly person like Crowley needed as desperatedly as
money.
Crowley's heir, Karl Germer, had sexual intercourse with women but suffered
from paranoia. The Brazilian M.R. Motta told of a conversation with Germer in
which the latter said Crowley should have been in love with him, but at the time
Germer allegedly refused to be taken anally by Crowley. During his stay in
concentration camps in France and Belgium, Germer got into contact with his Holy
Guardian Angel, who instructed him to learn sexual passivity. And after
Crowley's death, Germer made sexual advances upon Motta, who refused him.
Karl Germer, it's rumored by people who have seen his diary, had syphilis via
Crowley, which might explain his well-documented paranoia.
Marcelo Ramos Motta had hang-ups about the length of his penis, which he
considered to be too small. He thought it a sign of un-manliness. Motta had
problems sexually with both women and men. He was only sodomized once, by a
black male. His paranoia grew immensely.
Repressed emotions usually seek their release in either drugs or sex. In
my own experience, most of the Thelemites I've known suffer from repressed
emotions. Some had problems making contacts and were drug addicts. Thelema as a
Gnostic system equates God with Man ("Every man and every woman is a
star.") What happens to the Gods and their unreleased emotions? After
they've experienced the endless powerlessness of their aims, their magickal
failures, their social failures, their failures in the Orders, the vicious
circle of creating their own Order, they establish contact with a fairy
Holy Guardian Angel who possesses the individual's reality
like a huge phallus possesses the anus or the vagina, but tells it freely to do
its Will.
In the outer: your friends won't deal with your occult interests. Hush,
hush, your divine self tells you to create your own Abbey or take over one in
ruins, along with the invention of the hottest new Holy Book in order that you
can sexually (ab)use your "new" friends/brothers in sexmagickal ceremonies. Now
you throw those out who won't fit you any longer since your sexual and magickal
interests have become one. You climbed to a throne, the graceful chariot of
Hermes, from which you can throw stones upon those who had the same problems but
did not have the impudence to do the same (e.g. which club has the legal right
to anal sex as the highest religious sacrament?) -- and, suddenly, you've
created your Ersatz-family, your Ersatz-responsibility (your failure to have one
with your friends). You became your own father-figure and can now live out your
powergames.
My experience is that most occult leaders or important occult personalities have
suffered from repressed homosexuality and, in their later years, from paranoia.
I would add that the homosexual in a repressive society, can be pushed (a) into
art, (b) into the occult, or (c) into the business world -- fields where there
is pressure to improve oneself, in order to compensate for inferiority
complexes. Art and the occult support the need for exclusivity. Titles and
"secrets" make out of a poor fag poodle a High King. A suppressed gay who keeps
secrets which make him undying and supreme walks easier across the steets than
he who jumps into the couch of a psychiatrist. A suffering faggot can be
recognized by wearing chacha-heels in a psychic or physical form. Both deal with
inferiority which leads to the compensation which will be reversed by the idea
of homosexuality's first-class exclusivity which easily leads to the first-class
fascistoid concept of a chosen initiate (neither into art, neither business ...)
