Dark Star Rising Magick and Power in the Age of Trump

Gary Lachman's "Dark Star Rising" delves into the intriguing intersections between esoteric practices, occultism, and the political landscape, with a specific focus on the era surrounding Donald Trump's rise to power and presidency. The book posits that seemingly fringe spiritual and magical beliefs are not as separate from mainstream society and political events as commonly assumed. Lachman explores how ancient symbols, archetypes, and alternative worldviews may have subtly influenced or found resonance within the charged atmosphere of contemporary politics, suggesting a deeper, perhaps mystical, undercurrent shaping public discourse and power dynamics. Rather than presenting a narrative with fictional characters, the work examines key figures, historical traditions, and symbolic languages that might have played a role in the cultural and political shifts of the time. It scrutinizes themes such as the power of ritual and symbolism in shaping perception, the psychological appeal of certain ideologies, and the enduring human fascination with the hidden or supernatural as it manifests in the tangible world of governance and populism. What makes "Dark Star Rising" compelling is its unique approach, offering an unconventional lens to understand recent socio-political phenomena by uncovering potential connections between the esoteric and the political, challenging readers to consider alternative frameworks for interpreting modern power structures and belief systems.
