A brief summary of Thelema
Thelema was founded by Aleister Crowley.
Thelema is the name of the philosophical school and religious matrix established in 1904 with the writing of Liber AL vel Legis (The Book of the Law) by Aleister Crowley (1875-1947) and stands on the central axiom, the Law of Thelema. The Law is summed up in two phrases from the Book:
“Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law” (AL I:40) and
“Love is the law, love under will” (AL I:57).
The central goal of a Thelemite (as adherents refer to themselves) is to discover and perform his or her True Will, which is generally defined as the innermost Nature or proper life course of the individual. The techniques used to achieve this goal fall under the heading of Magick.
There are also strong political, ethical, aesthetic, and cultural aspects to Thelema. Although there is no strict literal doctrine concerning these matters, Aleister Crowley wrote many articles and essays regarding his ideas about the proper behavior of individual Thelemites and for an ideal Thelemic society. These ideas have continued to develop into modern times. However, the primary themes involve personal freedom, a recognition that men and women have an inherent divine nature, and that Love is the basis of the Great Work.
Different views of Thelema
Not all adherents of Thelema consider it a religion or subscribe to the philosophy of True Will as outlined in Aleister Crowley's writings. Thelemites may or may not believe in the necessity of Canon or Theology as outlined in this article. Many require nothing more than an acceptance of the message of The Book of the Law as interpreted by the individual, each for him/herself.

Quote
"Prepare for the mighty miracles I shall be wrought with around the world for all to see. I will show you this falsehood of lies the enslavers have you fearing. I will lift the veil from your eyes and show you all that has not been known to you since the dark ones came. I will teach all the world that which I am sent to do. Deep seated and deep throned, yea until we declare the last of the demons defeated and again man is the Lord of his spirit."

The Vision and the Voice
i have read many things and followed my soul journey
i have seen many picture quotes and images that helped me further my spiritual journey
i have also watched youtube videos - people talking about lucid dreaming, chakras, other spiritual topics.
i did not wake up and liberated myself over night
my journey has taken me 8, 9, or 10 years to become who i am now
i also had help from my Gods, my lover, my best friends, and of course my holy guardian angel.
know i hardly had friends growing up so i did not have peer pressure
my parents was not there for me
they left me to my own devices and let me think for myself
yes i had some media but my mother never made me watch the news. i watched cartoons and no reality shows until years later.
i was not influenced by pop culture or celebrities and all that gossip and rumor junk
i had a very different life than most people have
i was alone, an outcast
i had the room to grow without many outside influences and for that i am thankful
since small i had freedom to think for myself and see through my own eyes unfiltered and for this i am thankful
i now pass on my liberation and shine bright.
for i am a beacon of hope, love, courage, strength and power
for i am a priestess to the lovely star, Nuit
i am a starseed and lightworker
my mission is spiritual advancement and love to all
i share my truth and love to the world
this is my story i am sharing with you all
