BertiauxIntroduced byMgr. Nicholaj de Mattos FrisvoldGrand Master for BrazilOrdo Templi Orientis Antiqua + La Couleuvre Noir The work of Michael Bertiaux stands out as unique in the modern occult world due to its postmodern stance and Spiritist nerve that introduced to the world a magic of being rooted in ontology and phenomenology being brought into domains of radical magic where the practitioner gradually realizes that he is the artist and the world is his canvas as every tube of paint and every flask of dissolvent and every brushstroke is rooted in a possibility attached to the lattices and matrixes of creation, a 64 sided diamond that pulsates in the rhythm of death and becoming at each nanosecond the world comes into being as a renewed constant possibility, where we define the magician as artist in the meeting with what is not as well as what does affirm, and drives us towards realization, knowledge and the irrational at the same time. I recall my own fascination and frustration with ‘The Voudon Gnostic Workbook’ when I came across it quite by chance in a bookstore in Oslo in 1991: it was a chaotic oeuvre and in the many pages certain chapter and lessons stood out as talking more clearly than others, a resonance with the parts of Bertiaux work that established rapport and generated a peculiar order in the apparent chaos. It took time to realize where Bertiaux came from and the realization that he had simply presented a book of possibilities, a series of experiments, a tome of research, a ‘cookbook’ as he defined it himself when we meet in the late 90s generated the eureka necessary to realize the importance of Heidegger and the entire French tradition, not only in terms of Spiritism and occultism, but also the very philosophical frame of mind that would signify the French philosophical tradition. This means that Bertiaux was also presenting his work as an example of how the magician-artist can create his and her world, as the Voltiguer or leaper in the realities real and imagined, because as the creator of one’s reality and being, Zothyria and Krypton would as a possibility be as real and meaningful as any physical and material place because all that is, was once a dream, a flickering in the cosmic imagination. This means that the way towards explaining what the work represented by OTOA and LCN is about is to show by example, to show the 729 shades of the magician-artist as creator of his own magical reality. In ‘Keys to the Hoodoo Kingdom’ Monseigneur Woodward is doing exactly that, he is placing himself in the center of his own magical universe and is sharing with the reader the consequences of his voltiguerism and Spiritism as lodged in the lessons known as Lucky Hoodoo, a work that in its simplicity is also a work of tremendous impact and functionality. Also, in this book Sean is taking time to reflect on the various influences present in the creation of OTOA and LCN and as the book opens chapter by chapter an understanding of the ‘two Yggdrasils’, that were essential to Jean Maine, the commonalities between the Vodoun world view and the Nordic World view opens up in greater clarity and harmony as it fleshes itself out in the red and the black serpent of the solar Hoodoo temple in its ability to open the landscapes of possibilities and do, as the magical imagination should do, stimulate the creative potential of the magician-artist. Sean is actually dedicating chapters to several key lessons in Bertiaux’s ‘The Voudon Gnostic Workbook’ and in this is giving them a context within the context and demonstrating the impact it had on his Being – and in this by Sean’s example and willingness to share, he is also generating solidity and temporarily of his being and ‘not-being’ into a particular and unique Sean-ness. This means that Sean is giving us a practical demonstration of what OTOA (Ordo Templi Orientis Antiqua) and LCN (La Coulevre Noir) is. By presenting this work from the perspective of a peculiar being in the world that generates new worlds and new connections by the will and magical imagination, painting the world from a given place in time and space, an angel of unique birth that will ever gestate new and different possibilities as yet another jump in the worlds of magical possibilities are made by standing still in the eternal dream… CONTENTS: Introduction by Nicholaj De Mattos FrisvoldThe Hoodoo KingdomThe Sorcerer as a Young BoyThe Avalon WorkingThoth the AtlanteanThe Temple of the LoaThe Seventh Letter is GThe Cabinet of CurrenciesGood UFOs, Bad UFOsNocturnalVampyre-GnosisLa Prise-des-YeauxSpider Sorcerers of LondonVoudon Witchcraft in the BalkansAt the Monastery DoorThe Cult of ChoronzonThe Rite of the Red TempleMarassa-PhysicsBon-Po and the Black SnakeWhen Papa Leghba is Upon MeThe Tour-de-ZALBlood Sex Body MagickThe MonasteryApprentice and MasterThe Qubes of KalfouNavigating the DreamscapeGnostic OraclesTransyuggothian TremorsChildren of the Winter SolsticePilgrimage to ZothyriaThe Cult of the Deep OnesYou’re a Lucky HoodooILLUSTRATIONS:Transyuggothian Stele of the Black PharaohCosmic LeghbaTransyuggothian Transmission Station #7The Master of ZothyriaHoodoo N-PhysicsHierophant of the Deep OnesConsecration Certificate of Tau Sean WoodwardAngels of the Basilica97° of the Sovereign Sanctuary of the Rite of Memphis-MisraimEQ Universe-BAbbé of Other WorldsHoodooGhuedhe GnosisLes Clés de CarrefourHoly Mother of LAMs
