The Magnus Protocol and Alchemy, a brief overview
I'm no expert, not by far, but I love talking about Magnus!
Quick note, I forgot to bring up Crowley later on in the video, as well as some of the darker aspects of alchemy like human transmutation forced onto another human (of various ages) and animal experimentation, but if Crowley comes up in Protocol later on I will cover him then, or if we do a follow up to this video, there will be a section dedicated to him. We may not have covered him here, but we did cover John Dee and Edward Kelley, and they did some pretty dark stuff too so...
