In the horoscope of occultist

Aleister Crowley, all the planets are

between Rahu and Ketu, forming

Kalasarpa Yoga. Rahu is moving, in its

retrograde motion, towards all theother planets. There is, therefore, a

theme of new initiations of events in

his life that he must go through,

experience and learn from, in order to

develop himself in a manner that

allows for the eventual completion of

the results of his karmas. New events and circumstances will be initiated inhis life for the purpose of his learning to develop the characteristics that are

unbalanced or developed lopsidedly. Other, more secure, things will be

taken away in order to make room for the new. Rahu is in Pisces. Pisces is

the rasi of completions, resolutions and liberation. Rahu in Pisces,

therefore, indicates that the theme of the Kalasarpa Yoga is to initiate new

events and circumstances that give him the opportunity to complete and

resolve the issues that remain from his previous karmas. Rahu is in the 9 th

house, which indicates that some things to spur self-knowledge, faith,

and/or meaning and purpose in life will be initiated, and that other ideas of

self, faith and/or meaning and purpose in life will be unsatisfactory,

unsupported or taken away in order to make room for the new. The lord of

Rahu, Jupiter, is in the 4th house, indicating that self-knowledge, faith,

meaning and purpose in life will be developed as happiness and inner peace

are established, and that lack of happiness and inner peace will spur the

search for self-knowledge, faith, meaning and purpose in life. His occultworks reveal a search for meaning and are psychologically insightful. He

was one of the many important figures at the beginning of the 20thcentury

who had a part in making occultism, readings, Tarot, etc. more insightful

and psychological, and not merely predictive and mundane. As mentioned,

Kalasarpa Yoga tends to give an element of uniqueness. Crowley was not

only an occultist at a time during which occultist were considered little

better than Satanists, he also deviated from classical occultism. His CrowleyToth Tarot deck is decidedly different than other Tarot decks, he even

added some cards and renamed others.
