Aleister Crowley believed there were three forms of sex magick; autoerotic, heterosexual, and homosexual, (Drury, 2012). He claimed that by performing specific sexual rituals, including sado masochistic sex rituals on young boys, one could achieve financial gains and personal success, (Drury, 2012). For Crowley, the sex rituals were a sacrament and ingesting the fluids from sex and certain biological functions, such as using menstrual blood in rituals, would imbue him with knowledge, power, and success, (Drury, 2012). Certainly, in creating a cult of personality with a devoted following and in being an influencer through many generations, he can be considered successful
