The weekly occult podcast diving into the deep end of mythology, high-strangeness and religion. A show for seekers upon the path and wanderers of the outer abyss. Where others stay surface level, we go deep into the rabbit holes of demonolatry, chaos magick, gnosticism Thelema, Aleister Crowley, fallen angels, the ars goetia, MKULTRA, the black cross of Saturn and of course Ancient Egypt.

    In this week’s episode we wrap up everything we’ve learned so far about the Baphomet and its history as an archetype through history, esotericism and conspiracy lore. In the free side of the show we finish our discussion about the heretical practices of the gnostics, investigate the claims of who or what’s decapitated head was supposedly worshipped by the Templars and their shadowy connections to Simon Magus. In the extended show we submit ourselves to the mighty gaze of Abraxas and discover what dirty laundry he shares with the fallen angel goat demon Azazel who also lurks behind this same constellation of mysteries. In the conclusion we examine the murky world of bloodline occultism that Tracy Twymann was investigating during her demise and how it sits in relation to the even murkier world of conspiracy that leads to the darkest places imaginable. In the next episode, we’ll be applying our own occult research (led by Heka Astra) to begin understanding in earnest what the Baphomet represents from a pre-Abrahamic perspective. Thank you and enjoy the show.

    On the free side of the show we discuss:

    Gnostic sects who thanked the serpent and treated the creator as the enemy

    The whore-holy wisdom of Thunder, Perfect Mind

    Whose head the Templars really kept on the altar

    Simon Magus, the ram swap, and the three-day rising

    Libertine rites and the New Dionysus

    In the extended show available at www.patreon.com/TheWholeRabbit we continue further down the rabbit hole and discuss:

    Abraxas: the rooster-headed god

    Azoth, the A-to-Z universal fire of the Alchemists

    Azazel’s garment swap, the scapegoat, and the Lilith-Samael union

    Cathar consolamentum and the Book of Baptism by Fire

    Tracy Twyman’s Dragon Court years and the end of the trail…

    In this week’s episode we break on through to part 3 of our totally exhaustive, in-depth guide to the Baphomet where we discover the Islamic version of our favorite Hermetic super heroes and the secret identity of Enoch who is mythologized as the first man to use writing, built the pyramids and preserved esoteric wisdom for the generations following the Great Flood. In the extended show, we do a detailed comparison between strange occult practices in various gnostic cults and trace how their mystic lineages overlapped and diverged from the rich tapestry of ancient Hermeticism as it evolved through the ages. By the end we begin to weave together a number of various threads which have only come up as puzzle pieces in former episodes. By the end of the series we promise to unveil in earnest the most authentic description of the Baphomet outside of an oath-bound secret organization and finally get to the bottom of what this figure really means. Thank you and enjoy the show!

    In the free show we discuss:
    -The three Hermeses of Abu Ma‘shar: before the Flood, after the Flood in Babylon, and later in Egypt
    -Hermes as Idris, and Idris as the Enoch who walked with God
    -The first man to use a pen, the pyramids at Akhmim, and the arts carved into stone so the survivors could read them
    -The Harranian Sabians, Sir Walter Scott’s theory, and Kevin van Bladel on the “religion of Hermes”
    -The Emerald Tablet, Apollonius of Tyana, and mercury as both sage and substance
    -The second Hermes who taught Pythagoras, and the third who wrote on venom and made glass
    -Asclepius, the wrong snake on the ambulance, and Plato’s Phaedrus on why the king rejected writing
    -Al-Mas‘udi, the Active Intellect, and al-Suhrawardi’s pillar of light
    -Poimandres, the Demiurge, and the question of whether Hermes is the apocryphal Enoch
    -Mount Hermon, the place of the curse, and the angels who made a pact
    -The Mandaeans, the Sabians of the Koran, and their baptism …

    On this week’s episode we’re joined by the full crew to continue our truly exhaustive investigation into who or what the Baphomet really is with this week’s focus falling upon the goat themed motifs in Free Masonry, the connection with big dick deities from various cultures and the surprisingly deep connection between Pan, Lilith, Medusa and Athena referring to both the Old Testament and Hesiod to find our answers. In the extended show we discuss the Green Man, The Baptism of Wisdom and the connection between Enoch, Metatron, Moses and a shadowy initiator the Arabic world refers to as the Al-Khadir. By the end we begin to break down what the Knights Templar may have really been doing by worshipping the Baphomet and what it may have meant or symbolized to them: a pact with the devil or an attempt to bootstrap Christianity by taking ownership over older traditions? If you’re not ready to talk about dicks, butts and devils you might want to skip this one. Thank you and enjoy the show!

    In the free show we discuss:
    The goat in the Tarot, and why Crowley calls him Lord of the Gates of Matter
    Albert Pike, Eliphas Lévi, and the force the old adepts would not name
    GOAT, GAOTU, and the story of riding the goat
    Priapus, the herms, and Hermes as the grandfather of the permanent erection
    Pan, panic, Actaeon, and Arthur Machen’s Great God Pan
    The Pope Lick Monster, the Chupacabra, and the Wendigo
    Al-Ghul in the Nabataean Agriculture, and the star the Arabs called the Ghul’s eye
    Amalthea, the Aegis, and Medusa nailed to the shield
    Tracy Twyman’s Baptism of Wisdom, and the Knowledge of Good and Evil
    Hesiod’s garden, the Hesperides, and the snake at the golden apples

    In this week’s episode we take on the heroic task of uncovering the secrets of the Baphomet, one layer at a time, covering every possible angle and hopefully arriving at the closest we can approximate for the truth about who or what this figure genuinely represents. Tim compiled research from controversial sources like the late Tracy Twyman (who famously lost her life digging into this mystery), Julius Evola (of all people) and more medieval Hebrew mystic texts to assure ourselves and you (the listener) that we have left no-stone unturned or crazy, dark rabbit hole unsearched. By the end we might even be able to show you the profound wizard stuff that you probably, NORMALLY, need to kiss or clap booties to learn about. And that’s why they hate us. We remove booty clapping from the occult education system which is technically illegal. In the free side of this show we take a cursory glance at the more interesting and colorful history of the Knights Templar, focusing on the details of their confessions in an attempt to cobble together the details of their shadowy, secret practices. By the time we arrive at the extended show we have already begun to jump into the three loving arms of Priapus and explore his connection with Baphomet, Hermes and his lesser known Arabic equivalents before arriving at the dark connection all of the above have with Samael and Lilith. Thank you and enjoy the show!

    In this week’s blasphemously offensive episode we lift the dress on one of the biggest secrets ever told, (if it's true) the hidden history of Simon Peter, the first Apostle and… according to some sources: synagogue spy; a hidden hand behind the establishment of Orthodox Christianity. On the free side of the show we break down who Peter is according to the "normal gospels" and by the end we will discuss who he secretly was and what he was secretly doing… supposedly. In the extended show we discuss exactly how he pulled it off and take a look at some of the evidence which helps confirm the theory. No matter what faith or worldview you have: I'm sure there’s something to offend you in here. Thank you and enjoy the show!

    In this week’s episode we wrap up our deep-dive into Nietzsche's era initiating classic: “Beyond Good and Evil” by traversing chapter 3, the religious mood and a handful of his aphorisms in chapter 4; Julian the Philosopher lending historical context and depth throughout. In the free side of the show we focus on Nietzsche's criticism of Christianity and where, he believes, the proper place of religion ought to be. In the extended show we dive into Nietzsche's aphorisms and discuss both the controversial ideas of “slavery,” what that might mean in context and how if any overlap exists with Anton Lavey’s writings in The Satanic Bible. Thank you and enjoy the show!

    In the free side of the show we discuss:

    Nietzsche’s “big hunt” through the history of the soul — and why a podcast is basically a trophy room for rare ideas

    Christianity as sacrifice: the surrender of freedom, pride, and self-confidence of spirit

    “God on the Cross” as the most daring inversion of ancient values — the Oriental slave’s revenge on Rome

    Religious neurosis and its three dangerous prescriptions: solitude, fasting, and sexual abstinence

    Why European theism is dying even while the religious instinct keeps growing

    Modern philosophy as secretly (or openly) anti-Christian — but not anti-religious

    The great ladder of religious cruelty: first humans, then nature, then God himself sacrificed to nothingness

    Why real religious life needs aristocratic idleness — and how noisy modern labor breeds unbelief

    The scholar as “arrogant dwarf” who thinks he’s outgrown the religious man

    Nietzsche’s real thesis: religion is a tool — a bond of command for rulers, a ladder for the ascending, and contentedness for the many — not an end in itself

    In the extended side of the show available on at www.patreon.com/TheWholeRabbit we discuss:

    Chapter 4’s blasphemous apophthegms — Nietzsche’s clearest, cruelest one-liners

    In this week’s episode we continue through Nietzsche's Aeonic Philosophy as laid out in one of his all time greatest hits: Beyond Good and Evil. While the first chapter dealt with an era-shattering criticism of classical philosophy which ended upon a warning about, (having killed the old philosophies) the coming of the new philosopher or Free Spirit. As our special guest, Julian The Philosopher adds some much needed historical context and nuance to Nietzsche's words and sets us up to explore the new philosopher, the first spirit and the Ubermensch in greater depth. Who are those people anyway? Still fresh with excitement from the text, Luke (that's me) fixates on the overlap between the hazy image Nietzsche paints and the mystical poetry in Aleister Crowley’s “Book of the Law,” which outlines, in slightly more poetic fashion, a remarkably similar ideal. On the free side of the show we touch upon Nietzsche's hilarious ideas about race which, despite being a little controversial today, we can still have a good laugh about with good humor on our side. In the extended side of the show we explore the Will to Power as it is introduced in the text and how it lines up with Hadit’s words in the Book of the Law. Thank you and enjoy the show!

    In this week’s episode we discuss:
    Knowledge vs. Ignorance
    The Elect
    A Curse Upon Because
    A Case Against Martyrdom
    How to Tolerate Idiots
    Nietzsche's Ideas About Race

    In the extended show available at www.patreon.com/TheWholeRabbit we let our hair down and continue to discuss:
    The Privilege of the Strong
    Medicine to Some, Poison to Others
    Idiots Think in Absolutes (mostly)
    You Cannot Trust the “Selfless”
    The Sanctity of Appearance
    THE WILL TO POWER
    The Profound Loves a Mask
    The New Philosopher and the Thelemite

    This episode was crammed full of Thelema stuff by Luke but otherwise everyone presented their own stuff faithfully and is responsible for their own words.

    In this week’s episode we are joined by Julian the Philosopher as our special guest to discuss one of Friedrich Nietzsche's most celebrated and important works of philosophy, his book “Beyond Good and Evil.” If you’ve been following our prolonged discussion with Julian, one big question we are attempting to tackle in earnest is where does Aleister Crowley and the religion of Thelema fall within the moral spectrum found between Homer, Socrates and Fredriech Nietzsche. Because Nietzsche is considered a Thelemic saint we compare passages within Beyond Good and Evil to The Book of the Law while Julian peppers us with historical and philosophical context along with the tea about Nietzsche's utterly tortured love life. As with anytime we’re discussing anything of cosmic importance on this show, the gods try to test us and Julian's electric grid was actively being struck by Thor’s hammer throughout our discussion. This resulted in some unpleasantly low compression at times, so, we ask you to just bare with us and we’ll have it fixed next time. By the end of the free show you’ll have a pretty solid idea of where this adventure is going next time and if you want double the abuse for your brain, we finish the entirety of chapter 1 by the conclusion of the extended episode. Thank you and enjoy the show.

    In this week’s episode we’re joined by Jennifer Billock, an award-winning journalist, bestselling author, and the world’s only professional cheese fortune-teller to discuss her craft, how it works and some of the intricacies of using various foods to divine fortunes with. In the first half of the show we break down exactly how Jennifer accomplishes her profound feats of divination from “noisy” cheese like a crumbling blue to almost featureless pseudo-cheese like American. After breaking down the nuance, we continue in the extended show with a real, live reading from Jennifer who examines our own cheese to divine our fortunes, demonstrating in real-time that tyromancy is definitely well beyond being just an amusing novelty and is capable of being uncomfortably profound. I’m sure you’ll want to get a reading from her after hearing this interview so check out links in the description. Thank you and enjoy the show!

    In this week’s episode we conclude our three part journey through the seventeen stages of the heroes journey as laid out by Joseph Campbell in his seminal work “Hero with a Thousand Faces.” In the free section of the show we discuss THE ULTIMATE BOON which we explore in its various manifestations including the traditional narcotic coded drink of the gods and heroes; soma. We also discuss the reluctance to return from the journey (looking at you Odysseus), the magick shapeshifting flight and the occasional need (plot twist) for the hero to be rescued from without. In the extended show we Cross the Threshold and explore what exactly that means, if it's even possible to describe it; which is the next, difficult step which gives way to the journey coming full circle, the work accomplished and freedom rings once more.
