Musick. It gave to all of us a whole new form and era of Musick. It has become<br />

<strong>the</strong> most played instrument in <strong>the</strong> world.<br />

There is a collective, magickal and spiritual significance attached to <strong>the</strong> Electric<br />

Guitar. For <strong>the</strong> Spiritual Guitarist, it is <strong>the</strong> numinous Instrument of Lucifer, <strong>the</strong><br />

Hammer of Thor, <strong>the</strong> Thunderbolt of Zeus, <strong>the</strong> Caduceus of Hermes, <strong>the</strong> Sword of<br />

<strong>the</strong> Warrior, <strong>the</strong> Stone of <strong>the</strong> Philosophers, and <strong>the</strong> Wand of <strong>the</strong> Magician.<br />

The electric guitar has become <strong>the</strong> major Weapon of Sound in Musick. It‘s a<br />

dynamic symbol for <strong>the</strong> Spirit of Freedom and Independence, since around <strong>the</strong><br />

middle of <strong>the</strong> 20th Century.<br />

The image of <strong>the</strong> Electric Guitarist (Guitar Hero) has influenced and inspired<br />

innumerable individuals worldwide. This prevailing image has become linked with<br />

Magick and <strong>the</strong> Occult by various famous Electric Guitarists.<br />

Jimmy Page inspired thousands of individuals to play <strong>the</strong> Electric Guitar and to<br />

study <strong>the</strong> works of <strong>the</strong> famous Magician and Occultist Aleister Crowley. (The Beatles<br />

included Aleister Crowley on <strong>the</strong> cover of <strong>the</strong>ir album "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band",<br />

Ozzy Osbourne sang about Aleister Crowley in a song called, "Mr. Crowley", and so on.)<br />

Jimmy Page was a serious collector of Crowley artifacts and books. Page<br />

purchased and owned for many years <strong>the</strong> Boleskine house, once <strong>the</strong> magickal<br />

residence of Aleister Crowley, on <strong>the</strong> south-eastern shore of Loch Ness in<br />

Scotland.<br />

Jimi Hendrix was once actually defined as an Alchemist by ano<strong>the</strong>r renowned<br />

Electric Guitarist of his time. This same guitarist stated that what Hendrix did with<br />

<strong>the</strong> Electric Guitar was magickal.<br />

Jimi Hendrix was, however, more than an Alchemist of <strong>the</strong> Electric Guitar. He was<br />

also an Alchemist of Sound with a spiritual message that that Musick will one day<br />

become <strong>the</strong> Universal Religion, embracing <strong>the</strong> essence of every religion<br />

transcending all time and space boundaries becoming <strong>the</strong> main source for<br />

people's spiritual inspiration, guidance and direction.<br />

The electric guitar has 22 frets. In occult numerology 22 corresponds to <strong>the</strong> Circle<br />

of Infinity. <strong>the</strong> mystical fretboard of <strong>the</strong> Electric Guitar can be compared to a Circle<br />

of Infinity, containing a variety of sounds which may be manipulated in a variety of<br />

ways to produce an infinite variety of Musick.<br />

The Electric Guitar has six strings in all. Six is <strong>the</strong> sacred number of <strong>the</strong> Sun, who,<br />

in Greek Mythology, was represented by Apollo, <strong>the</strong> Greek God of Musick and<br />

Poetry. In magickal symbolism <strong>the</strong> Sun is primarily a masculine or male Force.<br />

The Guitar’s body is feminine in shape corresponding to <strong>the</strong> moon or <strong>the</strong> female<br />

Force. The phallic shape of <strong>the</strong> Guitar neck upon which <strong>the</strong> hand moves up and<br />

down is a masculine symbol united with <strong>the</strong> femininely shaped guitar body.<br />

The unity of <strong>the</strong> male and female forces represented within <strong>the</strong> electric guitar<br />

makes Musick.<br />

Musick originated as a spiritual, mystical and magickal art form and slowly<br />
