Sinister Times

Order of Nine Angles

Given that the emphasis of the ONA is on practical deeds, people curious about or interested on the ONA often ask about what the ONA has actually done – what ONA people actually do – to change the world in a noticeable way.

As often, it is a question of perspective, of criteria used to judge. Of esoteric and exoteric.

Exoterically, perhaps the majority of our people are hidden and do not have an overt association with us, with Satanism, with the sinister or even with the Left Hand Path. Thus their practical deeds are adjudged their personal practical deeds or possibly associated with some outer causal form they themselves may be associated with, be that form political or religious or whatever. In addition, many of us do not have our homes or our place of dwelling littered with mundane Occult paraphernalia, and so there is nothing to connect us to such Occult activities were we ever to be ‘investigated’ by some mundane authority or other. Furthermore, some of our kind adopt professions in keeping with our and their sinister aims and which professions enable them to live in a more exeatic manner.

But this waffle by me aside, esoterically what requires mentioning is Aeonics, our Aeonic perspective. This means that our aims and goals are – viewed causally – quite long-term, measured in causal centuries, and thus it will take centuries for the affective and affecting changes to become manifest on the type of scale most use to judge such matters as causal aims and goals.

The second thing to mention is that our way is to breed a new human type, a new elite – and this begins with each one of us, each one of our kindred, changing themselves and engaging in life in a sinister way, in accord with their wyrd, by applying our methods, techniques, and so on. Thus and for example they can choose to use the technique of the Seven-Fold Sinister Way, or apply the way of the Drecc (of tribes and gangs), or the way of the Rounwytha – or any or all of these – according to what interests them, what they find works for them, or whatever.

Thus, one outward sign – if one is interested in such mundane things – of our practical deeds are our people. Their change, their transformation by their association with the ONA and their use of the praxis of the ONA. And it is these people who by this very transformation of themselves – and what many of them will subsequently do in the world of mundanes according to how the sinister mood takes them – that moves us toward our causally-understood aims and goals and which brings-into-being our new aristocracy spread over the world. A practical aristocracy which is sinisterly subversive not because it seeks to implement some abstraction in some causal time-scale or is motivated by some causal idealism (such as overthrowing some nation-State), but because it aids and enhances the lives of those belonging to it in practical and often material ways – for instance, in terms of influence, in terms of providing goods and services, and in materially rewarding loyalty and honour and service to its members and participants.

In effect, it is/will be an international group – bound together by certain rules, such as our Code of Kindred-Honour and viewing mundanes as a resource – formed of kindred local groups in various nation-States, whose members co-operate together, dispense their own justice, obey their own laws, and who aid and help themselves and others of their kind by whatever practical means they can, even if some of these means are viewed by some existing nation-State as ‘illegal’ or ‘criminal’ or whatever. In this sense, we are a new type of organization in the causal, a mysterium, and so might be called The Mysterium, or The Niners (or whatever) rather than The Order of Nine Angles.

In time, our organization may well acquire some covert political and social (or even religious) influence in one or some existing nation-States, by having our members in some influential positions, or by having some power over some of those in such positions. Or some of our tribes might develope in some locality sufficient to bring forth Vindex or someone similar with there thus being an overt challenge to existing mundane authority in that locality. And so on.

But what is not important are the details, the means, the tactics, the minutiae – that is, restricting, causal, forms and causally-limited abstract aims are not important. What works, works. What does not work will be abandoned. What is important is that the ONA – beyond its outer current causal name – is a particular sinister presencing, some-thing that now lives (is presenced) in the causal and thus is acausal sorcery manifest as a living kollective and an ethos, so that it can and will assume and use and become whatever causal forms are necessary wherever on this planet such forms are or become necessary. Or expressed in another more familiar way – we are now a shapeshifting manifestation of acausal energy presenced in the causal. A collocations of nexions – individual, tribal – who ‘know’ their own kind and who are now actively seeking to assimilate others into our kollective, not for or because of any altruistic or idealistic reason, but because such assimilation of others is now a function of our necessary causal being, in this Aeon.

By assimilate, do you mean assimilate mundanes?

One of our axioms is that we classify humans as either our kind or as mundanes. Our kind currently, and for some previous Aeons, amount to perhaps five per cent – the creative or the defiant minority who latently or by means of their pathei-mathos have a certain natural intelligence, a certain instinct, a certain type of personality, certain personal qualities.

Another of our axioms is that in general (with many exceptions) mundanes are made, not born, and that therefore some human beings (certainly not all) have the potential to cease to be mundanes. Many of these lucky ones of course will never realize this potential, for a variety of reasons. A corollary of this axiom is that the children of mundanes have not as yet reached the age when mundanity becomes or could become fixed – their natural pattern of behaviour. Thus the reason why children in practical terms are exempt from being considered fair game, a resource, and why we consider certain activities by adults involving children – and certain proclivities, in adults, in respect of children – to be dishonourable and not something our own kind would do. For such things are one mark of mundanity – of those not able to or capable of controlling or changing themselves.

This axiom of potential within others is one reason why, in respect of culling for instance, we always give mundanes a sporting chance – to see if they can react in a non-mundane manner and so provide evidence of their potential to change.

Thus, yes I do mean assimilate – and change, evolve – some of those humans who are currently mundanes, which brings us rather neatly to our use of general tests to those who seek to associate with or join us.

I assume you mean here what some have, somewhat colorfully, called being mindfucked by the ONA?

Yes. In contrast, those who are naturally of our kind – and those who when challenged reveal they have the potential to develope to become of our kind – will be able to work their way through our Labyrinthos Mythologicus to the essence, the centre (and then be able to find their way out). As we have mentioned before, we have certain standards. If people do not meet these standards, they are not good enough, and we have no interest in guiding them. It is for others to find us, and prove themselves, not the other way around.

For instance, those who meet our esoteric and intelligence standards will find, discover, the clues we have left in many of our written works; as they will be able to see our fables, our causal forms, for fables and forms. They will see and perhaps laugh at some of the japes we have played on some people. In brief, they will be able to distinguish the esoteric from the exoteric, and mythos from practical exeatic living.

Let me give one simple – one very basic – example. Not that long ago we published an item which simplified Satanism to its practical, causal, core. There was thus a personal pledge by the aspiring Satanist, a code, and three fundamental principles. Very little in the way of traditional ceremonies or rituals or even words, since the core was the live in a particular way, sans the laws of the mundanes, where there is no law, no authority, no justice except that of the individual.

This item works on a variety of levels, some of which I will enumerate here. Thus, for some of those who might have the potential to be one of our kind, it is one possible beginning – to entice, to provide experience, to live exeactically, and so possibility at some time this might move some of these people toward a desire for more.

For some of those who are already of our kind (but may not yet know it) it is a sign, to what lies beyond such an outer form. An intimation of just why we produce and use such a form.

It is also a practical defiance of those who aid and support the mechanisms which keep mundanes in thrall – for those, for example, who support and aid existing nation-States and the mechanisms of control of those States (be such mechanism psychic, practical, or causal abstractions). For the flunkies of all nation-States do so hate and do find subversive those who believe and who practice the truth there is no law, no authority, no justice except that of the individual. Thus, if that item only influenced ten people in one nation-State in one year to change their way of life and live defiantly, outside mundane law, it would have achieved something in the causal, with no practical effort on our part.

It is also something that undercuts and undermines the pomposity, the pretentiousness, of already existing so-called ‘satanic’ groups, with their ‘temples and ‘grottoes’, their rituals, their books, their discussions, their self-awarded titles, and their old Aeon sycophancy.

Thus, people would react to this simple thing according to their nature, their conditioning, their potential. So it was/is fun, and useful, esoterically and exoterically.

But of course there are and have been, over the decades, far more complex, far more devious, challenges, tests, traps and obstacles, made and used by us for those ‘out there’. So many that one person even went so far as to sigh that for every ONA principle or piece of advice/guidance he came across there seemed to him to be another one which either confused the issue or was almost its exact opposite. Which of course of itself hints at a certain esoteric truth and the need for certain abilities.

You have recently been described as a weird combination of sinister ruthlessness and empathic sensitivity, which I guess makes you an unusual man. One person even described this combination as something of a dilemma in regard to making an assessment of you.

This is no dilemma, for the two aspects are not mutually exclusive – except to mundanes still in thrall to causal abstractions. One of the aims of our sinister Way is to develope the individual and so evolve the human species. Or rather, presence – to consciously bring-into-being – a new type, a new breed, of human beings.

This conscious breeding of a new species is a product of the acausal sorcery which is The Order of Nine Angles: a product of our mythos, our sinister praxis, our diverse ways of living, our kollective, and which ways include that of tribes and gangs and of those who individually follow our Seven-Fold Way.

This is why we scorn and laugh at other Occultists, at others who believe they are following and using The Black Arts, and why we have contempt for others, and other groups, who call themselves or who are described as Satanists and/or as followers of the Left Hand Path. For these preening poseurs – these examples of Homo Hubris – lack the experience, the knowing, of the Unity beyond causal and acausal, beyond all causal forms, and thus have no direct practical experience of both Light and Dark external and internal to themselves, and so cannot perceive and know such opposites (and they themselves) as but illusive causal forms, abstractions; as stages toward the necessary alchemical synthesis that brings-into-being our new type of individual and our new ways of living.

These Occult poseurs lack this sensitivity – the natural, esoteric, empathy that for example a following of our Seven-Fold Way and rites such as that of the extended Grade Ritual of Internal Adept develope in the individual, and which empathy, which sensitivity, is manifest in our Rounwytha tradition. A sensitivity which is just one of the many qualities possessed by those who have indeed undertaken what traditionally is termed The Passing of The Abyss. They – these Occult poseurs – also lack, of course, practical direct experience of the sinister, having never transgressed the laws of the mundanes, never taken themselves in practical ways truely beyond good and evil; never felt that exeatic joy when, testing themselves almost to death, they have triumphed and survived.

But in truth, I am nothing unique, just one phenotype: one intimation perhaps of a different human breed; one example of ONA sorcery in the causal and thus presenced, for now, on one planet we call Earth. Just one temporary stage between some-thing in some causal past, and something-else in some causal future – and thus some-thing fallible to be surpassed, in the framework of our causal Time and our dwelling on this planet.
