About the Authors

Lisa Novak

Carl Llewellyn Weschcke is Chairman of Llewellyn Worldwide, Ltd., one of the oldest and largest publishers of New Age, Metaphysical, Self-Help, and Spirituality books in the world. He has a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration (Babson), studied Law (LaSalle Extension University), advanced academic work toward a doctorate in Philosophy (University of Minnesota), has a certificate in clinical hypnosis, and honorary recognitions in divinity and magical philosophy.

In addition to book publishing he has worked in the pharmaceutical industry, furniture manufacture, and real estate management. With Llewellyn, he has worked in all aspects of the business: advertising, editing, production, writing, astrological calculation, design and layout, typesetting, cover design, direct selling, bookstore management, trade sales, designing systems and procedures, printing and purchasing, warehouse and shipping, and mopping floors.

He is a life-long student of a broad range of Metaphysical, Spiritual and Psychological subjects, and variously studied with the Rosicrucian Order and the Society of the Inner Light. After corresponding with Gerald Gardner and several of his associates in the late 1950s and early 1960s, he became known for holding the Weschcke Documents including a carbon copy of Gardners own Book of Shadows.

He is a former Wiccan High Priest and played a leading role in the rise of Wicca and Neo-Paganism during the 1960s and 1970s. Authors Scott Cunningham and Donald Michael Kraig together referred to him as the Father of the New Age because of his early and aggressive public sponsorship of a new understanding of old occult subjects. In the fall of 1973 Weschcke helped organize the Council of American Witches and became its chairperson. Weschcke rightfully prides himself on having drafted The Thirteen Principles of Belief Statement, a cornerstone of modern Wicca. This document was incorporated into the U.S. Armys handbook for chaplains.

While no longer active in the Craft, he retains ties to the Wiccan and Neo-Pagan communities through Llewellyn. He is 7th Past Grandmaster of Aurum Solis, an international magical order founded in Great Britain in 1897. He withdrew from the order in 1991, and is not actively affiliated with any group at the present time.

Still actively associated with Llewellyn, he is devoting more time to studies and practical research in Parapsychology, Quantum Theory, Kabbalah, Self-Hypnosis, Psychology, Tantra, Taoism, Tarot, Astrology, Shamanism, Wicca, Magick, and World Spirituality. He is also actively writing, and has co-authored seven books and several quick books and audio products with Dr. Joe Slate and a new edition with commentary of The Compete Magick Curriculum of the Secret Order G. .B. .G. . originally authored by Louis Culling in 1969. He is currently pl anning several books based on Tantra, Shamanism, and the Western Old Religion as systems of spiritual self-empowerment.

Creative Researcher, Author, and Magickian

Louis T. Culling , (18941973), Musician, Magickian, Southern California Avocado Rancher, Yi King Scholar, and Author. He was a theatre organist during the era of silent films, and a World War I veteran.

He was a man whose mind had a tremendous reach and vitality, whose life had been one of adventure and fulfillment, and whose contributions to modern occultism and paranormal work are unique.

In the early 1930s he joined that magical Order G..B..G.., founded in the United States by C. F. Russell and fashioned after Aleister Crowleys A..A.. He was head of the Southern California section of the Order for a number of years.

Louis Culling was a recognized scholar of the Yi King, which he calls the Pristine Yi King to differentiate it from the more familiar I Ching, which espouses Chinese philosophy but ignores the more esoteric aspects of ancient Taoism.

Louis T. Culling, by Wanda Sue Parrot

I met Louis T. Culling while I was desperately trying to rise from the tomb of lost innocence resulting from my first devastating sexual love affair. My broken heart was again cracked from a date rape on August 1, 1960, by the first young man I tried dating after my boyfriend abandoned me in lieu of a Cadillac. I was 25. Lou was 66.

He deftly guided me through and out of the sleazy scumbag swamp that was and is Hollywoods dark side. When I was ready and able to search for the Greater Light, he pointed me north, wished me well, and I found the Rosicrucians in San Jose and joined. It was the best thing I ever did.

Lou was a unique gentleman, kind and definitely unique, a genuine mystic who was so innocently childlike in his joyful delving into the mysteries that his humanness colored him as a down-to-earth honest man who called dry water holes dusters and who was equally at home with a gladiola bulb and young Brit upstart with hair horns, but in spirit he shared the mystics nature with Sir Francis Bacon (and me), inveterate experimenter. Bacon got sick from trying to find out if a bird was edible long after its death if it was kept chilledin other words, frozen food before fridges were invented...or so the story goes. Lou was simply Lou. He gave me a Ph.D. because he became hypnotized by the wheel he invented and was using, in vain, to try to hypnotize me. He claimed I hypnotized him. Nah! He hypnotized himself.

And, for that, I got a free Ph.D. in Sex Magick!! Double Nah! It was from his Collegium Orthogenesis Nuit, whatever that was. He referenced it in his book, so maybe that mystery will be resolved. Might you know the answer?
