- Astrologers sometimes make mistakes. From this fact, which even they are scarcely sufficiently brazen to dispute, it follows with mathematical certainty that astrology is not a science but a sham, a quackery and a fraud. Contrast its shameful uncertainty with medicine, where no doctor ever lost a patient; with law, where no lawyer ever lost a case; or even with arms, where no soldier ever lost a battle!—Aleister Crowley, The General Principles of Astrology
Our celebration of the vulgar New Year will begin on December 31, 2007 e.v. at 7:30pm. Open to Sekhet-Maat Lodge Members and their guests, this costume ball will be a place to celebrate and have a safe haven to enjoy the beauty and ambiance of Thelemic Fraternity.
Theme
Our theme is Astrology, so come dressed to symbolize a sign of the Zodiac, a planet, or the various Gods, Goddesses, and other symbols suggested by Astrological symbolism.
