Occult Corner: Part two of Lauren’s deep dive that she is calling ‘Jack Parsons: Rocket Scientist, Occultist, Messy Bitch’ He was a mad scientist that loved blowing things into space and loved Alestair Crowley’s particular flavor of occultism. In this second installment we cover Parson’s troubles both personal and professional, spoiler alert: adding L Ron Hubbard into the mix didn’t help anything and the Red Scare/Cold War was not kind to a progressive polyamorist in a drug-fueled sex-magic commune with access to classified military intelligence.
