The Babalon Working was a series of magickal ceremonies or rituals commenced on March 2, 1946 by Jack Parsons, essentially designed to manifest an individual incarnation of the archetypal divine feminine called Babalon , as well as to catalyze the reification of that force as it exists latently in every man and woman. During the ceremony L. Ron Hubbard acted as a scribe noting the results of the magical workings. The ritual performed was based largely in the enochian magical system devised by Dr John Dee and Sir Edward Kelley, though it also drew heavily from rituals described by Aleister Crowley.There is a short text called The Book of Babalon or Liber 49 which is claimed by Jack Parsons to be a transmission from the goddess or force called Babalon to him during the Babalon working.
