The recent resurrection of a 2014 dialogue from
the weblog – ‘blog’ – of philosopher Nick Land {1} was somewhat
interesting given that antifascist journalist ‘Simon’ trotted out
tropes in regard to Myatt and the O9A with several of these recurring
themes used in the past three years by a certain other antifascist
journalist and by many others.
Examined here are some of the tropes used by Simon. Of tropes in general Richard Sheridan in his 1779
satirical play The Critic had his character Sneer say of
the character Sir Fretful Plagiary that his tropes suited the
coarseness of his style. In regard to antifascists we might say their tropes are “suited to the coarseness of their character”.
This is the first of several projected compilations which will present aspects of O9A aural tradition neglected both by academics and by self-declared adherents of the Longusian tradition that was the Order of Nine Angles. All the compilations are re-issued as being in the Public Domain and since the texts were issued separately over a period of several years there is some overlap of content. Some of the texts have been slightly revised for inclusion here.
The topics deal with the esotericism and aural traditions of the Order of Nine Angles, some of which concern the Arabic text titled Ghayat al-hakim, dating from c. 1050 CE, and the Latin manuscripts titled Picatrix, dating from c.1300 – c.1459 CE; others concern and provide information about various Occult matters which the modern literature – academic and otherwise – about modern Occultism, about Satanism, and about the Western Left Hand Path seem to have ignored.
All concern the philosophical and Occult roots of the O9A and therefore serve to distinguish the O9A from all other modern Occult groups be such groups described as Occult, Satanist, hermetic or of the Western Left Hand Path.
Two articles by academics about the Order of Nine Angles (O9A, ONA) have been published in early 2023 in issues of the peer-reviewed journal Studies in Conflict & Terrorism. Both articles contain citations from O9A and O9A-related material and both are reasonably objective considering the mainly sensationalist Media reportage of the O9A since 2018.
The two academic articles, reviewed here, are Occult Beliefs and the Far Right: The Case of the Order of Nine Angles, by Shanon Shah, Jane Cooper & Suzanne Newcombe, and The Order of Nine Angles: Cosmology, Practice & Movement by Daveed Gartenstein-Ross & Emelie Chace-Donahue.
A study of primary sources is the scholarly, the civilized, way for an individual to rationally understand, to acquire knowledge of, a philosophy or a weltanschauung be such a weltanschauung a spiritual or a religious one. Thus to understand the O9A it is necessary to employ the Cræft Of Research. That this Cræft is now deprecated by many if not most so-called “intelligence” agencies is a definite indicator of how unbiased scholarly research has been publicly replaced in the West by ill-informed opinion which supports Establishment orthodoxy. Which is what has happened in respect of the Order of Nine Angles.

The O9A gets a mention in a UK report from the ‘Cabinet Office’ published on 30 March 2023 titled Government Response to the Intelligence and Security Committee of Parliament Report Extreme Right-Wing Terrorism.
“Proscription has, to date, been an important disruptive tool in countering the influence and activities of bodies and organisations which seek to carry out terrorist activity. However, the ideologies driving Extreme Right-Wing Terrorism are complex, and in the case of, for example, neo-Nazi groups such as Order of Nine Angles, do not meet the terrorism threshold. We note that Counter Terrorism Policing and the Home Office are considering a possible review of the current proscription process – this is a welcome development.”
There you have it folks – the Establishment will change the law in order to ban the O9A and reaffirms their belief in the anti-O9A post-2018 orthodoxy/narrative: that the O9A is a neo-Nazi group, is an ‘ideology’ – not an Occult philosophy – and is an organization which “seeks to carry out terrorist activity.”
A post-2018 orthodoxy/narrative believed in and propagated not only by antifascists but also by the Media, so-called independent/investigative journalists, politicians of all political parties, academics, and since 2020 by the hoi polloi brainwashed as they have been by such Establishment propaganda.
Considered according to our Aeonic perspective {1} the O9A has become a modern heresy, among many.
The Aeonic reality of the Order of Nine Angles can be found – at least for now – here: The New Enemy
°°°
{1} The Aeonic perspective is: “some of the knowledge O9A folk have acquired through a combination of practical experience, through a scholarly study, and through using certain Occult faculties and skills, such as esoteric-empathy. This knowledge is of the birth-life-death of Aeons and their associated civilizations, and of how the esoteric movement that is the O9A has a perspective – a sinister dialectic – of both centuries and of the sinister- numinous and of how Aeons manifest acausality through ‘the sinister-numinous’. In addition, the knowledge includes how a new aeon can be brought-into-being and how it manifests καλὸς κἀγαθός.” A Glossary of Order of Nine Angles Terms, v. 7.05.
Although originally scheduled for publication, pseudo-dramatically, on the forthcoming Spring Equinox we have decided to publish the interview with Anton Long now given the volume of anti-O9A propaganda caused by the conviction of Ethan Melzer. {1}
With some individuals having questioned whether Order of Nine Angles (O9A, ONA) primary sources really are only the published, signed, writings of Anton Long between 1976 and 2012 the answer is that it is a matter of logic.
Perfidy and inquinatious are apt terms to describe what has happened in the criminal case of former American soldier Ethan Melzer. Perfidy because of the falsehoods used by the prosecution lawyers, from the US Department of Justice, in respect of the Order of Nine Angles (O9A) and inquinatious because of those defilers who by profession are regarded by the public as representing ‘justice’ and as honourable seekers of ‘the truth’ but who, in the service of some political or personal agenda, in reality obscure the truth through propaganda, spiel, falsehoods, and fallacies of reasoning committed either consciously or through ignorance.
In the matter of Melzer we will list and expose the falsehoods used and the fallacies committed, beginning with the indictment in 2020 of Melzer and then the 86 page February 2023 “Government’s Sentencing Submission” in the United States District Court, Southern District of New York.
Given that the Counter Extremism Project report on the O9A is currently doing the rounds on social media and has been cited in the mainstream Media and, of course, in the Wikipedia article on the Order of Nine Angles now edited (censored) by zealous antifascists, we republish here an analysis of that report.
Given the Media and law enforcement frenzy and propaganda surrounding the arrest by the FBI of Angel Almeida, {1} we repost here five items which describe: (i) the background to the Establishment anti-O9A narrative – qv Black Propaganda, The FBI, And The O9A – and (ii) in The O9A And How To Influence People the type of propaganda used, and (iii) how, in the other three texts, zealous believers in the narrative react when asked relevant and rational questions.
Given the undiscriminating and widespread use of the medium of the Internet as a source of information which is sometimes reliable but often unreliable, and which mass medium is now favoured by propagandists, we humans have entered a new phase of development: the inquinatious era. This is the era where, for example, the esoteric and the numinous – and their mysteries and their effluvia – have often become and are increasingly becoming not only obscured by the propaganda spread by ideologues in the service of their ideology, be it political or religious or otherwise, but also sullied by inquinators who do not understand kalos kagathos let alone what it means and implies in personal terms.
A compilation of texts written in the past year (2021-2022) which concern the Establishment campaign directed at the Order of Nine Angles (O9A, ONA) – their new enemy and a new heresy – and the response of the Inner (Falciferian) O9A; which response includes: (i) The answer why the Establishment and its agencies employed ‘black propaganda’, agent provocateurs, informants, and used the resources of its governments, with the intent of not only discrediting the O9A in the eyes of the public but also of “establishing a legal precedent for the O9A as an extremist ideology” as a prelude to banning it as a terrorist entity. (ii) An explanation, using primary O9A sources of the most neglected aspect of O9A esoteric philosophy: its ethos and Logos based as they are on personal honour and which thus places that Establishment campaign into perspective. (iii) An analysis of the misunderstood O9A principle of individual judgement and the misunderstood role of ‘outer representative’.
1. We never claim and have never claimed and will never claim that this blog is an official anything, simply because we are anarchists (as O9A philosophy is anarchistic) with our understanding of anarchy being that it is that way of living which regards the authority of The State as unnecessary and possibly harmful, and which anarchic way of living (i) prefers the free and individual choice of mutual and non-hierarchical co-operation, and (ii) does not accept the authority of anyone or anything described as ‘official’ be that description used by or of an individual, or by or of a group or organization, or by or of any entity whatsoever, be the term ‘official’ used in the real world or in cyberspace.
Furthermore, this internet site is not an – or the – official Order of Nine Angles (O9A) website/blog because there is not, never has been, or never can be an “official” O9A anything including an “official” website or any officials or “leader”, because the O9A is and always was an esoteric philosophy {1} which has evolved to be a subculture. {2}
2. This site gives our personal opinions or interpretations of O9A philosophy and matters pertaining to the O9A such as Establishment/antifascist propaganda/disinformation/fake-news about the O9A.
3. The only authentic writings of Anton Long are those published between 1976 and 2012 which are signed ‘Anton Long’ and all of which signed writings are, as of November 2022 ev, still publicly available (i) in two archives {3} and/or (ii) in facsimile editions as with Naos and the two volumes of ‘Satanic Letters’, with accredited scholars able to access a printed 1990 copy of Naos, a facsimile of volume I of Hostia, and volume I of the Satanic Letters, in the British Library. {4}
Such signed published writings by Anton are the primary sources – the only primary sources – of O9A philosophy.
The properties of the pdf of The Definitive Guide has a 2014 publication date, with the archive of the nineangles dot info site dated 25 Jan 2012 with the ‘WayBackMachine’ having archives of that website dating back to 2008, as at https://web.archive.org/web/20080521181225/http://www.nineangles.info/

The novels of the The Deofel Quintet – the Deofel Quartet plus the pro-Sapphic novel “Breaking The Silence Down” – were published between 1976 and 1992 (that is, before the public Internet) and are an eloquent and rational response to the lies and propaganda spread about the O9A by antifascists and by certain journalists.

An analyses of the propaganda directed at the Order of Nine Angles (O9A) in recent years, the reasons why, with examples of how the propaganda relies on fallacies such as the appeal to authority; how that propaganda has manufactured an Establishment orthodoxy about the O9A; and the role played by Wikipedia in propagating that orthodoxy to the hoi polloi. This detailed analysis is primarily intended for those who are critical rationalists or who, rebels by nature or experience, are suspicious of the Establishment in particular and politicians and the mainstream Media in general.
For the few who are critical rationalists or rebels by nature there is a stand-alone collection of O9A texts which present the real story of the Order of Nine Angles as opposed to the Establishment orthodoxy of the phantasmagorical “O9A” described in propaganda such as the ISD report.
The texts are:
I: O9A Overview. II: The Seofonfeald Paeth. III: The Star Game, Occult Symbolism Of The O9A. IV: Julius Evola, The Seven Fold Way, And The Corpus Hermeticism. V: The Historical Hebdomad. VI: The Hebdomian Way. VII: Complete Guide To O9A Subculture. VIII: Three O9A Rituals: External Adept, Internal Adept, The Abyss. IX: The Boundaries Of O9A Philosophy.
It is interesting and instructive to consider the official US government view of the Order of Nine Angles (O9A, ONA) as described in a sworn affidavit by Special Agent Faye Stephan, assigned to the FBI New York Joint Terrorism Task Force, before Judge Stewart D. Aaron, Southern District New York, on the 4th June 2020. Which affidavit formed a core part of the criminal prosecution by the US Department of Justice of Ethan Melzer on charges of conspiracy to murder US military members, attempted murder of US military members, and of providing and attempting to provide material support in support of terrorism.
A section of the affidavit is devoted to the O9A under the heading Background Of The Order Of Nine Angles and the views and opinions expressed therein have since 2020 been widely quoted and paraphrased by the mainstream Media, by independent journalists and by antifascists all of whom have considered those views and opinions authoritative because deemed by them to be from a reliable source. The section lists five main points about the O9A, each of which we consider in detail.

From the Conclusion: Given (i) the ‘principle of the authority of individual judgment’ and (ii) the fact that the ω9α code of kindred-honour applies irrespective of gender, ethnicity, perceived social/educational status, nationality, and sexual preference, and (iii) that ω9α culture does not embody racist neo-nazism in ethos or in principle, ω9α culture can be further diversified and thus develop new subcultures that encompass the insights and some of the practices of non-European esoteric and mystic traditions.
This has already happened in a clandestine way in places such as Egypt and Iran where nexions have been established which incorporate some Sufi traditions and insights (and in the case of Iran, memories of Sumka) as well as in Japan where a clandestine nexion incorporates the insights of Yukio Mishima (as manifest in his quartet The Sea Of Fertility) with the esoteric non-racist National-Socialism of Reichsfolk. In Turkey, a clandestine nexion exists which blends Myattian insights – from his philosophy of pathei-mathos – with elements of Sufism, stories from لْفُ لَيْلَةٍ وَلَيْلَةٌ and aspects of ω9α culture in a still developing individual and mystical quest for wisdom.
Such new and developing subcultures are expanding ω9α culture and harbingers of not only a New Aeon but of a new type of civilization independent of nations and States and old aeon notions of Empire and physical conquest.

Three dialogues – two from social media in 2023, one from a 2014 post on the blog of philosopher Nick Land – between antifascists and individuals who the antifascists regard or who, in the course of the dialogues, they come to regard as one of their enemies. Which dialogues are representative of antifascist prejudice and hatred.
° O9A: Dead And Buried
° A Summary, 2018-2023
° Abandoning The O9A
<quote> Whether by design or because of fundamental flaws – in this instance the anarchic-nihilistic O9A principle of the authority of individual judgment and the Labyrinthos Mythologicus – [the O9A] is, de facto and as of 2023 CE, dead and buried. Those who believe this demise was by design quote the following from the [1990] writings of Anton Long:
“I claim no authority, and my creations, profuse as they are, will in the end be accepted or rejected on the basis of whether they work […] I also expect to see them become transformed, by their own metamorphosis and that due to other individuals: changed, extended and probably ultimately transcended, may be even forgotten. They – like the individual I am at the moment – are only a stage, toward something else.”
“Each individual develops their own unique perspective and insight as a consequence of striving to achieve Adeptship – a perspective and insight which derives mainly from practical experience, both magickal and personal.”</quote>

It was interesting to find a book published in 1859 titled Examinations for Admission to the Royal Military College, Sandhurst. Interesting for two reasons: Firstly, and primarily, in the context of Western civilization and the abilities and learning expected of a future military officer; and secondly because two of my ancestors had attended that military academy, one around the time the book was published, and another before the start of the Second World War.
In the primary context of Western civilization, then and now, how many military recruits, and schoolboys or girls aged around eighteen, in Britain or America or Canada could today answer the questions? One example of which is illustrated below, with others illustrated in the pdf file above.
My suspicion is that it would be an elite few, certainly fewer than in the 19th century. Which possibly may suggest many things about the state of Western civilization today. Such as how our standards, intellectual and otherwise, have declined with the inevitable decline of our civilization. And how the denigration of elitism, of logical reasoning, and of intellectual rigour, together with a neglect of a classical education and pervasive notions such as ‘equality’ and ‘modern democracy’, have led to a loss of our identity as a civilizing influence in the world with consequences that are obvious to the sagacious.
Perhaps the O9A is correct in propagating an aristocratic ethos and thus upholding the principle of καλὸς-κἀγαθός.
While we are not entirely in agreement with some of the views expressed in the following article we, as believers in free expression and rational debate, publish it nonetheless.
The author’s extract is: <quote>”The Order of Nine Angles (O9A, ONA) was killed by the ‘black propaganda’ produced by paid FBI asset Sutter who spread that propaganda in person, by means of his fake O9A chapter, the so-called Tempel ov Blood, by his FBI supported infiltration of the neo-nazi group AtomWaffen, and by books such as the vile Iron Gates published by his Martinet Press. The Order of Nine Angles was finally buried by the Oxfordian TWS Nexion – the Inner or Falciferian O9A – publishing in August 2022 their 45 page text Abandoning The O9A which in chapters such as Desertam Indefensamque and Paradox Of The O9A Authority Of Individual Judgment explained why they developed their own new and non-Occult hermetic tradition.”</quote>

The Deofel Quartet presents much of the diverse aural traditions as AL received them: as stories about people, their interactions; their ‘satanic’ or esoteric views and beliefs; and about certain events that involved those people.
Hebdomadary refers to the individual who is undertaking an esoteric journey or quest (ἄνοδος) for Lapis Philosophicus by means of following the path that is the Hebdomian Way. The Way consists of seven stages which ancient hermetic tradition symbolized by the seven classical planets beginning with Lune, the Moon, and ending with Saturni, Saturn.
