Statement of Purpose

What does it mean to be a Heretic? What does it mean to be a King? As Thelemites, we commit ourselves to a different path than the mainstream culture we see around us. We assume our rightful place as the Lords of our own destinies, through the freedom that the Law of Thelema entails, and accept the responsibility that accompanies that freedom. In the eyes of the world, we are heretics. At the same time, by taking responsibility for our lives, we become the Sovereigns of our destinies. And perhaps, as the new Aeon blossoms, the groundwork we now lay will become the foundation of the temples and palaces of the future.
