Foreward by Isaac Weishaupt

This analysis was written with the intention of exploring some of the relations Paulo
Coelhos The Alchemist book has with true occult beliefs systems. When I first read The
Alchemist I couldnt help but see the same underlying themes that have been present in tragic
occult figures such as Charles Manson, Adolf Hitler, and Aleister Crowley.
This reading doesnt intend to spoil the plot so feel free to read it if youve never read
The Alchemist before. It isnt necessary to understand the material I present, however, it
would help put context to some of the examples (besides, The Alchemist is a great read so Id
highly recommend it anyways).
This isnt intended to blaspheme New Agers, Paulo Coelho, or anything of that
nature. For years Ive been exploring the hidden occult beliefs and symbolism of the
entertainment industry and this is just one more example (of many) that seems to fall into
the category.

The Magus Paulo Coelho- Another Crowley Acolyte

The overall message of The Alchemist is one that resonates with most- your treasure
lies where your heart is. It is a novel that strikes the same chords as The Secret, where people
are inspired to pursue what author Paulo Coelho terms their Personal Legend. In this
analysis I intend to explore some of the themes found in the book and how they could be
interpreted as occult dogma- particularly Aleister Crowleys Thelema and alchemy. By the
time the reader is finished, it will be quite clear that the protagonist of The AlchemistSantiago, is indeed a Crowley Thelemite
***
Alchemy is an occult science practiced by some of the greatest minds of all time in an
attempt to unlock the secret powers of the universe. There are many goals of alchemy that
all revolve around the self-improvement of man to the point of immortality or even
becoming god like
Like most examples of coded Illuminati symbolism, we see alchemy with its roots
in ancient Egypt (the word Khem means Egypt) with hails to Hermes Trismegistus (aka
Thoth- the Egyptian god of magic). This explains why the story revolves around a boy who
is pursuing a treasure in ancient Egypt at the Great Pyramids. Over time the practice of
alchemy has been revered by Freemasons, Rosicrucians, and todays most influential New
Agers.
First, Id like to take a brief glimpse at the contradictory life of the author- Paulo
Coelho. Primarily well look into his adulthood and what led to his preeminence as a
famous author. It seems to me that hes taken the path warned of by Father Seraphim Rose
in Orthodoxy and the Religion of the Future where mind expanding drug use, Eastern
esotericism, and New Age beliefs have blended nicely into a tale that seems inspirational
upon first glance; but could have some heavy occult undertones

Here is a man who was born in Brazil and attended a Jesuit school. Many of you are
familiar with the Jesuits because they frequently come up in discussion of conspiracy
theories due to their controversial and esoteric past. Some theorists like David Icke claim
these Catholic priests are secretly worshiping a serpent deity, or even part of the Illuminati
shape-shifting bloodline alongside other similar groups like Opus Dei, the Knights Templar,
and the Freemasons.
Here is an excerpt from Paulo Coelhos blog:
My family was very strict and my father sent me to the Jesuit school so that I could have real
discipline.
The chains of rigor were so heavy throughout my youth that very quickly I started to doubt this
religion that showed no mercy, only constraint and suffering.
I remember being obliged to attend mess and the constant threats of hell in the mouth of the
priests. Everything was sin, everything was forbidden, joy was ruled out.
I think that my rebellion was what saved me: I doubted about Catholicism, and felt that I must
try something new.
Later on, in my teenager years, I became a hippie.
During this time, I traveled a lot, met people of different backgrounds, and had learnt different paths to
come closer to spirituality.
I started to see other paths and started to see that my own religion wasnt restricted to the Jesuit
perception.
After traveling the world and spending time as a 60s hippie (drugs and all), Coelho
worked with a musician named Raul Seixas and introduced him to the works of Aleister
Crowley. Many of you are familiar with Crowleys influence which Ive been exposing for
years now as his spiderweb intertwines with all aspects of music, film, and entertainment in
general. He is one of the key players in this secret world of the Illuminati and is revered to
this day by those in the know.

Seixas was so impressed with Crowleys Thelema teachings that he and Coelho tried
to start an anarchist commune (not so distant from similar hippie groups of the time) called
the Alternative Society which was shut down by the Brazilian government.
In the Seixas song Sociedade Alternativa (written by Coelho); they have some
interesting lyrics that should raise further interests into exactly what it is these two were
attempting:
Live, Live, Live the Alternative Society
The number 666 is called Aleister Crowley
Hurray
There are even more overt lyrics referencing Crowleys occult belief system known as
Thelema and the Aeon of Horus:
Live, Live, Live the Alternative Society
(Hurray the new aeon)
So go
Do what you want
Because it's everything
In the Law, the law
Live, Live, Live the Alternative Society
Do what you want, is to be
Everything in the law, the law
Every man, Every woman
Is a Star

Crowleys religion called Thelema is literally interpreted as the will. This will
come up again as we explore Coelhos book and Santiagos Personal Legend. This Aeon
of Horus is arguably part of the New Age movement, which flows into the Age of Aquarius
and the push of transhumanism. The reason for this is explained in my hip hop conspiracy
book SACRIFICE: MAGIC BEHIND THE MIC where I connect the dots of the Illuminati
agenda with the music industry- particularly hip hop.
This should come as no surprise since we know some of the more enlightened
rappers like Pharrell Williams, Big Sean, and Macklemore have been referencing The
Alchemist lately

In fact, I reference one of the main driving points of Crowleys axiom of Every man
and every woman is a star in that SACRIFICE: MAGIC BEHIND THE MIC because it is part

of the agenda of the New Age with the self-realization of its followers (which is evident in
todays narcissistic selfie generation):
The University of Michigan study entitled Youre so vain took a look at how people
interact with social media and found the younger people used it as a tool for boasting and carving an
image of extraordinary individuality. This supports the idea that were living in an age of selfactualization and trying to find our place in this world, but at the same time not being able to separate
ourselves from desiring to be the celebrities we are so consumed with:
Every man and every woman is a star.- The Book of the Law, 1:3, Aleister Crowley
People put on a persona online that fits the image of a celebrity, and in a sense they believe they
are a celebrity when they accumulate followers. Many online personalities have actually become
celebrities through their YouTube channels or perhaps from starring on a reality show. In this modern
time, anyone can become Crowleys star.
Coelho isnt bashful about his occult beliefs, which surprises me on some level since
he is so famous. He has even blatantly TOLD us hes into many of the occult practices Ive
talked about in the past. From a 2008 Telegraph article titled Paulo Coelho: Ive presided over a
few black masses in my time:
'I've presided over a few black masses in my time, sure,' grins Coelho. 'I wouldn't recommend it
necessarily, but every young person should allow the flame of rebellion to manifest in some way, because
if you don't see the other side of the coin, you are just a sheep. You'll have some risky experiences, but
everyone knows his or her limits, I believe.'
There are literally millions of people that have read this book and been influenced by
it (myself included). This includes famous people such as Bill Clinton (spotted carrying it
during the Monica Lewinsky ordeal), Julia Roberts, Madonna, Nelly Furtado (who decided
to have a child after reading Coelhos books) and Will Smith (who professed his admiration
for the book on Tavis Smiley).
Anytime you see Madonnas name you must know that the Agenda is involved.
Shes been progressing pop culture into new cultural norms since the 1980s with things that
seem tame by todays standards (e.g. the video for Like A Prayer). Madonna once wrote
about The Alchemist:
A beautiful work about magic, dreams, and the treasures we find on our own doorstep.

What stands out here is the mention of magic because that is part of the Aeon of
Horus since Crowley himself was a ceremonial magician. While most think magic is
harmless; one must understand that it has an occult background and connections to the dark
arts. The magic(k) I am referencing is the one that ends with a k as our friend Aleister
Crowley explained as the science and art of causing change to occur in conformity with will.
This is why many theorists suggest that Disney has a hidden agenda with all of their
stories revolving around magick. The problem with magick (particularly black magick) is
that it is an exchange of one thing for another. This contract is made with a spiritual realm
that we cant see, so its difficult to discern between spirits of good and evil; making all
magick contracts susceptible to satanic influence.
Some claim that Coelho made a Faustian bargain with the Devil in order to sell
books, (*which is arguable because I havent seen a valid reference). However, there are
actual statements from the man where he admits to some of the darker explorations of his
past (including a discussion with a vampire). A series of questions by Sven Michaelsen in
the German Suddeutsche Zeitung reveals more:
The most bizarre phase of your life began in 1969. You focused on occultism, witchcraft
and Satanism, devouring thick books on UFOs, vampires, pentagrams and astrological systems. In
your journal, you wrote: Immersing myself in black magic is for me the last resort against
anguish and depression.
I remember writing that sentence but I am no longer the person who wrote it. The reasons for
my involvement in black magic are encapsulated in my past.
In 1972, you joined the satanic sect O.T.O. (Ordo Templi Orientis) under the name of Luz
Eterna. This is the Order of the Knights Templar of the Orient, whose chief theoretician was the
Englishman Aleister Crowley. One of the followers of the big animal as he called himself was
Charles Manson who had four people murdered in Roman Polanskis house by gunshot, stab
wounds and truncheon blows.
This organization's maxims border on spiritual fascism. The aim is to push the experience of
power to the maximum extent. Those chosen few members are freed from all ethical norms and may do
what they wanteven become a monster. When I realized that the O.T.O. was leading me into the
abyss, I renounced it and broke off all contact. Spiritually, I was as good as dead, though I did
recognize that one needed an ethic in order to live.
You state that the O.T.O. is worse than Satanism. What practices can you attest to?
I dont like the word Satanism. To my ears, it sounds like a cheap Hollywood horror movie.
Although no babies were sacrificed in the O.T.O., we practiced black magic and worked with forces that
I will not describe to you. I have no desire to make people curious about this organization, as that could
be misunderstood as recruitment. This is why, for many years, I refused to publicly utter the name
O.T.O. and why I always only used the fictitious designation Society for the Launching of the
Apocalypse.

You told your biographer Fernando Morais that you met Satan six days after joining the
O.T.O. Morais writes: Coelho noticed that the smell of death and a dark fog were permeating his
apartment, as if the sun was suddenly setting.
Stop it! I do not want to talk about this subject any longer.
You allegedly wrote a 600-page manuscript about your experiences.
That is true, but my current wife advised me to destroy it and that is what I did.
The point Im making here is that Coelho has a past of dabbling into some of the
darkest arts possible. You see mention of Charles Manson and Coelho distancing himself
from him; however this is a tactic used by many occultists only since the tragic effects of
Mansons exposure to these beliefs. Manson and his Family were brought into these
occult experiments at places like the Spiral Staircase in Los Angeles but never shook the
bad mojo that followed them around. Well revisit Manson a bit later but for now keep note
of the themes presented of Coelhos past interests: Crowley, UFOs, and black magick.
To this day Coelho claims to be a Catholic- sort of. He says he does not kiss the hand
of the Pope, thats for sure (from a 2007 New Yorker interview title The Magus) and that hes
also a recovering Catholic. In that same New Yorker article the journalist details more about
Coelho destroying this manuscript:
I dont regret my experience with black magic, and, of course, it gives me a kind of auraits
good for my biog-raphy, Coelho told me. But the only book he has ever destroyed was one about his
two years in the sect. Christina asked him not to publish it. This is going to cause you a lot of
damage, she said. I got a sign from the Virgin. I deleted it from the computer and I threw the hard
copy away in a waste bin in Rio de Janeiro. I dont like burning, because of the energy.
What I find interesting about this story is that it is very similar to the Beach Boys
Fire song from 1967. Its writer, Brian Wilson, allegedly wrote it based on a trip he had on
LSD but would eventually destroy the master copies because he believed it had pyro kinetic
powers after a building around the studio in which he performed it burned to the ground.
We were all messed up on drugs. We were doing witchcraft and trying to make witchcraft
music. Brian Wilson, The Dark Stuff: Selected Writings on Rock Music by Nick Kent
Another curious element here is that Brians brother- Dennis Wilson, befriended
Charles Manson the next year and had the Family living at his home for some time. The
Manson Family girls were often referred to as the Mendocino Witches and even called
each other witches. When the Family went to conduct the Tate murders, Charles told them
to do something witchy.

After dabbling with all of these dark arts, Coelho proceeded to write The Alchemist in
a two weeks. The book went on to become an international best seller- translated into
dozens of languages and selling millions of copies. There was also an illustrated version of
the book that was sketched by the artist Jean Giraud; otherwise known as Moebius.
This artist was known for his artwork on Alien, but he was also a part of Alejandro
Jodorowskys crew for the original Dune film. For those of you who arent familiar with
Jodorowskys work, he directed films like El Topo and The Holy Mountain which features
vast amounts of dizzying occult symbolism. The ideas behind his films are always to expand
the mind and enter into trance-like states. This idea of entering into another dimension of
reality is a common theme for occultists and Satanists because it allows one to commune
with spirits from the other side.
Jodorowsky was originally tapped to film Dune and he was assembling various
names such as H.R. Giger, Pink Floyd, Mick Jagger, Orson Welles, Salvador Dali, and
David Carradine. Giger, Moebius, and other designers from Dune would take some ideas
with them to the Alien film project. Mick Jagger was in a film called Invocation of my Demon
Brother filmed by Kenneth Anger who was an open Crowley Thelemite-occultist that also
conducted various satanic rituals with infamous Manson Family murderer Bobby Beausoleil
(who was also in Invocation of my Demon Brother with Jagger). Anger tried to film a similar
movie called Lucifer Rising with Jagger playing the role of Lucifer, but after the stabbing
death at the Altamont Music Festival in 1969, Jagger decided to back off from the occult
practices (allegedly).
Anger proceeded to film Lucifer Rising which is about Crowleys Aeon of Horus
predictions in which he believed mankind was entering a new age dominated by the childgod featuring open practice of magick and self-realization. The Word of its law is Thelema
which means Will and it is complemented by love. The dominant trait is one finding their
true will and individuality through love and personal growth.
These are all concepts found throughout The Alchemist
Again; Coelho shows us minimal degrees of separation from Jodorowsky, Crowley,
New Age, and Satanism. That doesnt necessarily implicate Coelho in a secret satanic
agenda, but it should make one wonder
It all seems a bit confusing, but I believe its supposed to be. The tales of The
Alchemist (and other New Age works) are inspirational and digestible; meanwhile possibly
misleading. I argue this based on the beliefs of Father Seraphim Rose who warned us of the

New Age movement back in the 1960s. He lays out an argument for the deception
embedded into New Age belief systems which will ultimately lead people into a world of
extraterrestrial channeling, earth worship, and ultimately ushering in the Antichrist. If you
consider Coelhos prior works like Hell Archives and Practical Manual of Vampirism- which is
about a conversation he had with a real vampire (*hes since pulled from circulation); one
MUST wonder what his true motivations are
Yes, [the Aeon of Horus] is coincidental to what astrologers and songwriters call the Age of
Aquarius and what millions of others refer to simply as the New Age.
The Magick of Aleister Crowley: A Handbook of Rituals of Thelema, Lon Milo DuQuette

The Alchemist: A Tale of Occult Initiation

This book was written by Coelho in a matter of a couple of weeks and he claimed
that it was written in his soul. However, some claim it to be an adaption of Jorge Luis
Borges Tale of the Two Dreamers written in the 1930s- which is quite curious since Borges
was into H.P. Lovecraft and his bizarre tales that had heavy occult undertones as well.
This tale was one of magical realism in which magic is accepted as an actual force
of nature in the tale- a characteristic of the Aeon of Horus. Naturally, this seems to be
something Coelho was into since he studied Crowley, the OTO, and their brand of magick
in the occult.
The cover of the book warns us of occult and magical belief systems with its
symbolism of the All Seeing Eye, moon & sun, and triangle of manifestation. These symbols
are crucial as they are found in most works of Illuminati art.
The All Seeing Eye references one of many ideas- prominently the influence of the
occult beliefs in the practitioner behind the piece of entertainment. Here I believe it is
intended to represent the All Seeing Eye of Horus- an ancient Egyptian deity who was
involved in an epic tale of death at the hands of Set (aka Satan) only to have the deity Thoth
resurrect him with his magical powers. Again, we see more symbolism suggesting Crowleys
Aeon of Horus with this symbol.
Another symbol on the cover is that of the triangle. This is telling us of the powers of
magick and its ability to manifest things into existence. Weve seen rappers like Jay-Z utilize
this in recent years, but this is an ancient symbol taken from the mystery schools of ancient
Egypt to also represent male power. An article I wrote about the triangle goes into more of
the witchcraft and Egyptian Trinitarian beliefs (with yet another mention of Horus):
When researching Witchcraft (the craft of the wise) you can see that the upright triangle is a
symbol for the 2nd Degree initiate, in the process of a Witchcraft salute that follows the path of one
breast to the other, and then the mouth and back down to the first breast. Conversely, the 1st degree

initiate gets a salute of an inverted triangle with breast-breast-genitalia. The principle behind making
and closing a triangle with a salute is because of the worship of the feminine triple goddess through a
non-Christian version of the trinity. This is believed to follow the Egyptian trinity of Isis-Osiris-Horus,
and the Greek Artemis-Selene-Hecate trinities.
Getting into the story; were introduced to a shepherd boy named Santiago who
questions whether or not to pursue a journey to the Great Pyramids of Giza in Egypt. He
turned from his familys wishes to have him enter the seminary in exchange for becoming a
shepherd because he liked to travel. This is the first clue that there might be an antiChristian message behind this tale, as you can almost read a disdain for organized religion
in the text of the book:
That was what made traveling appeal to him he always made new friends, and he didn't
need to spend all of his time with them. When someone sees the same people every day, as had
happened with him at the seminary, they wind up becoming a part of that person's life. And then they
want the person to change. If someone isn't what others want them to be, the others become angry.
Everyone seems to have a clear idea of how other people should lead their lives, but none about his or
her own.
In the book Santiago professes that he couldnt have found God in the seminary while
admiring nature, which begs of the earth worship found in many pagan faiths and even
Charles Mansons Air Trees Water Animals (ATWA) project.
He sees an old woman who reads dreams and tells him there is indeed treasure in the
Pyramids. After telling him shed like 10% of the treasure, Santiago waivers on whether or
not he should really leave his sheep behind and pursue this force that draws him towards
Egypt.
Santiago is conducting himself as normal and is reading a book that Coelho doesnt
reveal the title of. The only clues were given are that it starts with a scene of a burial on a
snowy day and the characters names are difficult to pronounce. An old man approaches
Santiago and claims to have read the book, while also talking down on it:
"It's a book that says the same thing almost all the other books in the world say," continued the
old man. "It describes people's inability to choose their own destinies. And it ends up saying that
everyone believes the world's greatest lie."
"What's the world's greatest lie?" the boy asked, completely surprised.
"It's this: that at a certain point in our lives, we lose control of what's happening to us, and our
lives become controlled by fate. That's the world's greatest lie."

"That's never happened to me," the boy said. "They wanted me to be a priest, but I decided to
become a shepherd."
"Much better," said the old man. "Because you really like to travel."
Here we see the old man reiterate that leaving the seminary was a wise choice. One
theory about the book in reference is that it is Doctor Zhivago since it starts with a Russian
Orthodox Christian burial on a snowy day and has notoriously difficult names for
characters. Strangely enough, Doctor Zhivago was also a book used by the CIA to try and
disrupt the USSR in the 1950s due to its anti-Communist stance and message that every
person is entitled to a respect as a human being with a private life.
Later on in the book Santiago makes another mention of trying to read the book but
failing to keep interest:
"That's strange," said the boy, as he tried once again to read the burial scene that began the
book. "I've been trying for two years to read this book, and I never get past these first few pages."
The old man reveals his name as Melchizedek and Id like to explore that for just a
moment. The name draws analogies to the Melchizedek of the Book of Genesis in the Bible
who was the king of Salem- believed to be the town of Jerusalem or even the Canaanite
region known as Shechem. If it is indeed from the Canaanite lands it makes me examine the
name of Melchizedek more closely and we can see it is comprised of melek (king) and
sedeq (righteous). The Canaanite deity known as Moloch (aka Melek) would come to
mind here since it is also a symbol commonly used by occultists to this day. Moloch is
referenced as the horned deity to whom children were sacrificed in the land of Canaan. The
people believed that he would give blessings in return for their blood sacrifice. We can see
the symbol today with the Mano Cornuto which is an actual witch hex (most commonly
known as the devil horns in rock music).
So looking at this character, we can see that Melchizedek may indeed be the pagan
deity that sets our main character, Santiago, on his journey into occultism.
Melchizedek proceeds to teach the boy about the importance of pursuing your
dreams and that the universe will help you achieve your will (again- Crowleyism as in
Do what thou wilt and his religion of Thelema which translates as the will). He points
out the rest of the people nearby in the village that have given up on their dreams for a safe
and steady income- subtlety referencing their misery for not pursuing their Personal Legend.
Melchizedek tells the boy that everything in life has its price and the Warriors of the
Light teach that concept. Whenever we see people referencing light it triggers a warning

that we may have some Illuminati influences to consider. Here we can argue that he might
be referencing the light bearing illumination of Prometheus or Lucifer. The Angel of the
Light is the entity referenced in symbolism of lights, torches, fire, etc. because occultists
believe that Lucifer was the one who tried to save man from God. Its another retelling of
the Prometheus tale where he steals fire from Zeus to teach mankind how to use fire so they
will not have to rely on the gods anymore. This is a brief example of the occult obsession
with evolution and continuing improvement of mankind to the point of becoming gods
themselves.
At this point, Melchizedek provides the storys magical aspects when he gives two
stones to Santiago called Urim and Thummim. These two stones are supposed to represent
yes and no and are to be used by Santiago in his journey as omens. The colors of the
two stones are very deliberate because they coincide with the colors of Solomons twin
pillars- Boaz and Jachin (Melchizedek claims to be the king of Salem; and Jerusalem is
where Solomons Temple was first built).

In consideration of the esoteric tradition; the twin pillars represent transformation


with the illuminated initiate rising as the third pillar between the two. When these two
pillars were on either side of the entrance to Solomons Temple it triggered the initiate to
understand they were about to be transformed by entering this mystical realm.
Santiago is the transmutated initiate- rising as the third pillar
Rising up as the transformed third pillar is representative of the equilibrium of two
opposing forces (the black and the white being in total opposition; yes or no). This is why
we see the floors of Masonic temples adorned with black and white tiles known as Moses
Pavement. There are always depictions of the sun and moon as well- similar to what we

see on the cover of The Alchemist. It is there to make the initiate reflect upon these occult
ideals.
This is a concept seen with the destruction of New York Citys twin towers and the
resurrection of the single third pillar as the One World Trade Center. The obvious
references to the New World Order are there in plain sight with the title showing us the
New Age unification of the One World agenda.
We see this theme over and over again from the entertainment industry- as I describe
in my book on Kubricks film analysis of The Shining, Eyes Wide Shut, A Clockwork Orange,
and the REAL alchemist of 2001: A Space Odyssey in KUBRICKS CODE.
As the story moves along we read of many opportunities that Santiago has to turn
back and give up on his Personal Legend, but he forges ahead. We see many axioms and
allegories that are useful in finding motivation in finding happiness in life, like the one
Melchizedek gives him:
When you want something, all the universe conspires to help you achieve it.
Again we can reference New Age thoughts and beliefs similar to those found in The
Secret. They want you to believe you can be a god of your own world and think things into
existence or even use magick to receive these blessings. In The Secret they talk about
envisioning things as mundane as a good parking spot being open, and this intention will be
supported by the universe and give you what you desire (if it should be).
Heres where we start breaking down the real intent of the book- alchemy and the
occult. Youll notice the book has a central theme of looking for omens from the universe
and the Soul of the World. These are occult concepts that are understood by initiates and
those who follow the teachings of the ascended masters. While they are not inherently
sinister or devious; the road they take one down just might be. The Soul of the World is the
principle that governs all things and in the book it is the positive force that drives Santiago
towards his Personal Legend because it comes from his heart (which is a part of the Soul of
the World- recall that we are all one).
In alchemy there is much talk of the Great Work, the elixir of life, and the
Philosophers Stone- which are all prominently featured in this novel. It is a veiled reference
to the evolution of mankind because in the occult belief system they think man has evolved
through stages of mineral, plant, and animal life; all the while in pursuit of evolving from
human to god. This is why the Englishman talks to Santiago about such things while in the
desert:

The Englishman was fascinated with the part about the progress achieved at the crystal shop
after the boy began working there.
"That's the principle that governs all things," he said. "In alchemy, it's called the Soul of the
World. When you want something with all your heart, that's when you are closest to the Soul of the
World. It's always a positive force."
He also said that this was not just a human gift, that everything on the face of the earth had a
soul, whether mineral, vegetable, or animal or even just a simple thought.
"Everything on earth is being continuously transformed, because the earth is alive. . . and it has
a soul. We are part of that soul, so we rarely recognize that it is working for us. But in the crystal shop
you probably realized that even the glasses were collaborating in your success."
The Englishman was reading books about alchemy which the narrator describes with
mention of mercury, salt, dragons, and kings. The symbolism of these pertain to the
alchemical principles of the three primes- salt, sulfur, and mercury. Sulfur is the symbol
utilized by the Church of Satan- also known as the Cross of Leviathan.

In the book Santiago also sees dragons which is the personification of sulfur (see how
he hid that in the text since he doesnt mention sulfur in the book- only the dragon?). This is
the classic symbol of the dragon or serpent swallowing his own tail, which represents
different things to many cultures. Some portray the Devil as the red dragon (as discussed
further in A GRAND UNIFIED CONSPIRACY THEORY: THE ILLUMINATI, ANCIENT
ALIENS, AND POP CULTURE).
The Alchemists use it as a principle to overcome challenges. The infamous
iconography of the Ouroboros shows the alchemical principle in action of transforming
oneself in never ending improvement, rebirth, and evolution- all of which our protagonist go
through in the novel (*it should also be noted that one of the versions of The Alchemist has
this exact symbol on the cover).

Again, you can see that this tale is about the occult transformation of Santiago as he
goes through the preliminary stages of ritualistic initiation. He is evolving as a human being
and opening up his mind to the possibilities of the universal power. The reason people like
myself warn of this is not because it is irrelevant, untrue, or impossible; but rather the
inverse. The powers of your own mind and overcoming barriers through the continual selfimprovement are important to understand and implement. However, without the proper
guidance it can spiral out of control and you can eventually pursue more power at all costs.
It all starts with the alchemical desire to turn lead into gold, which is symbolic of the
evolution of oneself, but can turn for the worse if unchecked (as Ill explain later).
While Santiago is in the oasis, he becomes enamored with a beautiful woman named
Fatima who tells him about the alchemist who knows all the secrets of the world (take
note of the language used: the secret). She tells him that the alchemist communicates with
the genies of the desert- which means he communicates with spirits of good and evil. This is
part of the argument Im presenting that pursuit of these occult beliefs can lead one down a
path theyre not spiritually equipped to handle. Similar to other left-hand path traditions,
making contact with spirits is one of the goals of the occult practitioners. Crowley acolytes
such as Kenneth Grant have pursued contact with extraterrestrials; as did L. Ron Hubbard
and Jack Parsons. Here we learn that the alchemist himself was able to channel entities from
the spiritual realm as well.
Is it any coincidence that Fatima is portrayed as the Aquarian water carriereffectively ushering in the New Age of Aquarius?... Crowley spoke of ushering in the Aeon
of Horus and the 60s hippie movement helped it along by pushing the Aquarius traits of
group consciousness, spirituality and harmony. Some claim the New Age movement is in

fact the same as the Age of Aquarius, which is meant to supplant Christianity and the Age of
Pisces (the fish which symbolizes Jesus Christ). The Illuminati seek to evolve mankind
and cycle us through the different ages of the Zodiac- with the transition from the Age of
Taurus and the bull (Moloch, or maybe Melchizedek) to the Age of Pisces and the fish
(Jesus Christ) and finally to the Age of Aquarius and the antichrist. Perhaps that is also why
the alchemist appears to Santiago on a horse with a sword; drawing analogies to one of the
horses of the apocalypse
One of the first lessons the alchemist teaches Santiago is about life attracting life. He
demonstrates it by placing a cobra in a circle he makes in the sand. He explains to Santiago
that he found life in the desert- an omen of Santiago finding new life in the desert (at the
Pyramids). Again; this is the symbolism of the Ouroboros and the alchemical principle of
transforming oneself in never ending improvement, rebirth, and evolution. The Ouroboros
is literally a serpent in a circle chasing its own tail- a symbol that shows us the death and
rebirth of a man (Santiago).
Another occult belief is that the true history of the world includes the sun god
fending Mother Earth from the serpent of Saturn; forcing the snake to circle the cosmos
lying in wait- similar to the Ouroboros.
Further into the dark side of the occult- Aleister Crowley used this symbol as part of
the Goetia (sorcery) to evoke the seventy-two demons in The Goetia:

The alchemist proceeds to tell Santiago about the Emerald Tablet- source writings by
Hermes Trismegistus that lay out the alchemical principles. The alchemist tells him that
many others have pontificated from this source but offered no real guidance to help one
understand its meaning. These pontificators included Isaac Newton and Aleister Crowleytwo of the most famous occultists of all time.
The alchemist also provides guidance with sayings like the desert is the best teacher
there is. And: the desert will give you an understanding of the world which I find interesting
given Charles Mansons fondness of the deserts of Death Valley. He took his Family out
there to teach them occult principles not so different from what the alchemist is teaching
Santiago. The universal consciousness principle and all things being one are seen in both of
these examples- with two very different results
In The Alchemist Santiago finds love and happiness, while in the case of the Manson
Family it ended in murder, mayhem and satanic influences. When Tex Watson told
Sharon Tate et al. Im the Devil and Im here to do the Devils business it is hard to argue that
they hadnt truly made contact with demonic entities. This could very well have been
influenced by Mansons teachings and time spent at places such as The Spiral Staircase
where he openly admitted to exposing his children to a source of evil

In Conclusion- How The Alchemists Teachings Could Go Wrong

The book centers itself on the lesson that the initiate must make contact with the
Soul of the World in order to connect with their purpose in life. When you look at it from
this angle, you can see that they are fulfilling their own desires, which is known in this tale
as ones Personal Legend. This is a direct reflection of Aleister Crowleys Thelemic
will. Given Coelhos past of occult dabbling it seems rather obvious that The Alchemist
was at the minimum inspired by The Beast 666 himself. Santiago is in fact a Thelemite if
you consider all of the evidence Ive presented thus far.
Crowley started out as a ceremonial magician with training in organized magick
rituals from groups like the Ordo Templi Orientis and the Hermetic Order of the Golden
Dawn. He and his wife also made a trip to the Pyramids of Egypt, like Santiago, and here is
where he contacted a spirit named Aiwass. This entity whispered into his ear over the
course of a few nights and Crowley wrote down this dictation which would become the
sacred text for his Thelema religion.
This text that he channeled from Aiwass- The Book of the Law, speaks of living your
life according to your True Will (a phrase that was coined by Crowley and used to this
day by many). This True Will is more in line with Santiagos Personal Legend in that it isnt
to be confused with the desires of the ego.
Again, this is more New Age babble, but the point is that it is not to be confused with
a selfish kind of want. It is in fact supposed to represent a higher universal calling that each
person was put in this world to do, which is echoed by occult beliefs in the destruction of the
ego.
Crowley was a vehement anti-Christian and I find it interesting that he chose the
word of will when it is used in the Bible to refer to the will of God. Like many Satanists,
he appears to have inverted the meaning and intent of this language. While its a nice

gesture to pursue what you feel called to do in life, it can indeed spiral out of control if taken
to an extreme
Crowley believed there should be no morals, boundaries, or limits to the pursuit of
what ones True Will dictates. He experimented with this at the Abbey of Thelema in Italy
where his commune kept pursuing new highs through drugs and sex. At one point they were
going to slice a goats throat while copulating with it as part of some form of sex magick
energy exchange ritual. Of course they were kicked out of the Abbey before they could
perform it by the notorious dictator Benito Mussolini, which speaks volumes.
Crowleys influence of doing what you desire and shattering cultural norms was kept
alive by the hippie movement which came crashing to an end after the Manson Family
murders which also held similar tenets- including experimenting with drugs and also a plan
to kill Tom Jones by slicing his throat while also having sex with him!
Another Manson principle was the destruction of fear. In The Alchemist this is listed
as one of the fundamental obstacles in the way of achieving ones dreams. The camel driver
warns Santiago about this kind of thinking:
We are afraid of losing what we have, whether its our life or our possessions or our property.
But this fear evaporates when we understand that our life stories and the history of the world were
written by the same hand.
Manson played on this concept when he was in the desert teaching his disciples
about the importance of overcoming fear (again we have this similarity of the desert
teaching us lessons as they did in The Alchemist). He would hand initiates a knife and
instruct them to kill him. After they balked at it he would tell them he now had the karmic
right to return the favor and kill them at his own will. He would then proceed to try and
frighten them in an attempt to have them overcome these fears.
The Alchemist shows us the wonders of a life where focusing on the journey are more
important than the destination. It also gives us occult teachings and shows us how Santiago
uses these things to perform supernatural feats like turning into the wind or communicating
with the planetary spirits. The ancient occultists understood the spiritual world and that is
why the ancient Greeks and Egyptians spoke of gods walking amongst them. They literally
saw the spirit world and communicated with it in order to guide their lives. They would
listen to the winds and take guidance from it on their journeys- just like Santiago did after he
achieved the enlightenment from his occult teachers and successfully passed his final test of
communicating with the elements of the earth and turning into the wind.

The concept of evolution is one of great importance and this book doesnt fail to
emphasize it. The alchemist says:
Everything in the universe is evolved. And, for wise men, gold is the metal that evolved the
furthest.
Evolution of consciousness is always at the forefront of occult works of art.
Occultists believe in the importance of opening up the minds supernatural powers of
perception through activities such as meditation, yoga, or drugs as a way to activate the
chakra system. They believe they can communicate with the disembodied spirts and even
have healing powers- also known as the alchemical elixir of life. The disembodied spirits
some of these occultists seek to contact are extraterrestrials, which seem to be indicative of
the latest trends in entertainment with depictions of sexy aliens.
They want us to first believe in the existence of these other-dimensional entities, and
then worship them. This will happen under the guise of evolution- stating that the aliens are
superior to mankind because they are further evolved. It will be not much different than the
extermination of inferior races weve seen from Adolf Hitler and his occult beliefs; only
the entire human race will be the receiving end of the treatment
Allow me to conclude this analysis with a few thoughts on how I feel about The
Alchemist. I actually found this book very entertaining and inspirational. If I wasnt so
accustomed to connecting the entertainment industry to the occult Id say I was surprised to
learn of the authors occult backgrounds. Unfortunately it seems that weve now got this
consideration so its important to take a look at it.
I dont believe that people cant change and have different beliefs over time, so that
means Coelho may have unintentionally embedded these occult beliefs into The Alchemist.
Just because Crowley practiced alchemy and Coelho admired Crowley doesnt mean
reading The Alchemist puts you in bed with Satan. However, it does put you in the same
neighborhood
If Coelho did indeed write this tale from the viewpoint of innocent inspiration, it still
couldve been inspired by the occult teachings he was being exposed to in the 60s. Like all
forms of symbolism, the concept embeds itself into the subconscious and comes out in
filtered ways, such as this book.
Famed psychiatrist Carl Jung once said that symbols give meaning to the life of man
and I believe the symbols of this book speak to us on a subconscious level while inspiring
mankind. The question here is what the reader chooses to do with this message. As Ive laid

out here, it seems that one could mistakenly get involved in darker forms of worship if not
careful.
I recommend you continue to read books like The Alchemist, meditate, or practice
yoga because they can be full of great motivation and inspiration, but proceed with caution
and take these practices for what they are. If we dont stay conscious about the direction
were being led I fear that we may be opening up portals to a darker dimension than we
envision. If we stay informed and cautious we can prevent making a catastrophic mistake or
following the wrong teachings...

A Grand Unified Conspiracy Theory: The Illuminati, Ancient
Aliens, and Pop Culture is a culmination project of several
years of research and taking notes on taboo and fringe subjects
from various theorists, philosophies, and academic walks of
life. I focus a lot of the material on the philosophy of David
Icke, so if you wanted an independent third party assessment
on why he thinks reptilian shape shifters control our planet
(and why he could be correct); this is the book for you!
I explore links between all of the Illuminati conspiracy theories,
the music, film, and entertainment industrys infiltration, and
brainwashing symbolism found in all of these venues (e.g. the
All Seeing Eye, pyramids, etc.). Ancient cultures, Nazis and
occult worship still play a key role in todays control system,
and I provide insight into these topics, including a never before
released review of a controversial and banned documentary of Princess Dianas murder. This film
has never been released and I was able to watch a copy of it and review its findings.
More original theories are presented such as Rihannas occult origins, red dragons and their
symbolism, and the Illuminati eugenics program being deployed through a transhuman robotic
agenda. I also explain how David Ickes theories of the Moon Matrix and Saturn Worship operate to
manipulate us into a false reality.
I wrap the book up with a conclusion of what actually works out of all this mess. It includes an
assessment of David Ickes reptilian shape shifters explained through a legitimate cognitive style
model theory in academia called Adaption-Innovation theory.
