Steve Dee is a Systemic Psychotherapist working in the NHS within the field of mental health social work. He is the author of A Gnostic’s Progress: Magic and the Path of Awakening and The Heretic’s Journey: Spiritual Freethinking for Difficult Times. He is also the co-author (with Julian Vayne) of the book Chaos Craft. After a near miss with the Anglican Priesthood, Steve focused his energies on more occult pursuits that have included work within the east/west tantra group AMOOKOS and the Chaos Magic current. His current interest in Gnosticism represents an attempt to explore the way in which joys of heretical freethinking can be harnessed for the benefit of all.  He currently blogs over at : https://theblogofbaphomet.com This episode is available at YouTube: https://youtu.be/dg_KA31gtzw Visit http://psychartcult.org for links to Psychoanalysis, Art & the Occult residency at Morbid Anatomy Museum, online, Sundays in September. https://www.morbidanatomy.org/events Ornette Coleman at The Golden Circle: https://www.bluenote.com/spotlight/ornette-coleman-trio-at-the-golden-circle/ Sacred Intent by Genesis Breyer P-Orridge and Carl Abrahamsson: https://store.trapart.net/details/00176 Watch Anton LaVey: Into the Devil's Den: https://vimeo.com/ondemand/intothedevilsden/375129601 Pre-order Anton LaVey and the Church of Satan: https://www.innertraditions.com/books/anton-lavey-and-the-church-of-satan Mary Wild's Projections series at the Freud Museum, London: https://www.freud.org.uk/event/projections-marilyn-monroes-screen-persona/ You can support the podcast at our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/vanessa23carl Thank you so much for your support!
