The Babalon Working was a series of magic ceremonies or rituals from January to March, 1946 by author, pioneer rocket-fuel scientist, and occultist Jack Parsons, along with Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard. This ritual was essentially designed to manifest an individual incarnation of the archetypal divine feminine called Babalon.
The ritual has (a.o.) entered popculture through a fictionalization in comic-book form by Belgian authors Ange (plot), Alain Janolle (drawing) and Caroline van den Abeele (coulouring): "Babalon working", vol. 2, "Nemesis" series, 1998/99, Le Téméraire Editor (French version; a Dutch version also exists).

Famous quotes containing the word working:
“A village seems thus, where its able-bodied men are all plowing the ocean together, as a common field. In North Truro the women and girls may sit at their doors, and see where their husbands and brothers are harvesting their mackerel fifteen or twenty miles off, on the sea, with hundreds of white harvest wagons, just as in the country the farmers’ wives sometimes see their husbands working in a distant hillside field. But the sound of no dinner-horn can reach the fisher’s ear.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
