Stars & Snakes: A Thelemite's Field Notes (Dispatches From The Abyss Book 1) Kindle Edition

Step beyond the veil of convention and into the raw, unfiltered world of contemporary magick, Thelema, and occulture.In this anthology, occult practitioner and writer Marco Visconti collects his dispatches from the frontlines of spiritual exploration, originally published on his widely-read Substack. Spanning the years from the platform's inception to the dawn of the Thelemic Holy Season 2025 e.v., these essays chart an evolving, unapologetically personal journey through magickal theory, institutional critique, socio-political reflection, and direct, lived practice.Unabashedly opinionated and unsparingly candid, Visconti pulls no punches. Where others hedge, he cuts to the bone—taking on modern occult communities, hierarchical Orders, and the commodification of spirituality, while offering lucid meditations on Thelemic philosophy, resilience, and self-transformation.For those called to the esoteric path—by discipline or by rebellion—these writings illuminate the struggles, contradictions, and moments of clarity that define the Great Work today.No gurus. No gatekeepers. No holds barred. Read more
