What is astrum argentum?

Astrum Argentum, also known as the Silver Star, is the name given to the outer order of the Aleister Crowley's educational organization, the A∴A∴. It was founded in 1907, with the aim of providing advanced instruction in the philosophical, mystical, and magical teachings of Thelema. The organization is based on hierarchical structures, and new members must go through different grades of initiation and learning before they can advance to the next level.

The teachings of the Astrum Argentum are primarily focused on the concept of True Will, which is defined as the unique purpose and destiny of an individual, as well as the theory and practice of magick. The organization also promotes personal development, self-awareness, and spirituality through a wide range of esoteric disciplines and practices such as meditation, ritual, divination, and alchemy.

The Astrum Argentum is a highly secretive and exclusive organization, and its rituals and practices are kept confidential among its members. However, it has had a significant influence on modern occultism and has attracted many followers and students over the years, including famous artists, writers, and musicians.
