Occult Profiles: The Order of Nine Angles

The Order of Nine Angles is the most important British, neo-nazi magickal order. It formed as a fusion of three other orders: Camlad, the Noctulians and the Temple of the sun. The ONA presents Satanism as a path of self-overcoming in a chaotic, amoral universe. The Satanist must break through his own limitations through acts considered illegal and evil to come into contact with acausal, sinister hidden magickal forces...including murder if required.

The Order of Nine Angles was originally formed in England in the 1960s, with the merger of three neopagan temples called Camlad, The Noctulians, and Temple of the Sun.

Following the original leader's emigration to Australia, it has been alleged that David Myatt took over the order and began writing the now publicly-available teachings of the ONA. The ONA now has associates, and groups, in the United States, Europe,
Australia,  New Zealand,  Canada, Russia, and Iceland.

Author Nick Ryan has asserted that Anton Long, the author of the ONA's public tracts, is a pseudonym of David Myatt, a person who was involved with the neo-Nazi movement in England. This assertion is repeated by Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke, who claims that David Myatt was the founder of the ONA and writer of most of the ONA documents,[12] and had previously acted as bodyguard for "British Nazi Colin Jordan".
Ryan states in his book that Myatt lived in the 1990s on a smallholding in Shropshire with Christos Beest, who has given several interviews on behalf of the ONA[14] and performed a live recording of The Self-Immolation Rite that was included with Vol. 2 No. 3 of Fenrir.

David Myatt has always denied such allegations about involvement with Satanism, the ONA, and using the pseudonym Anton Long, and repeatedly challenged anyone to provide any evidence of such allegations [15]. In addition, Myatt challenged two journalists - Nick Lowles (from Searchlight) and Nick Ryan - to a duel for repeating such allegations, a challenge which they both declined. Gerry Gable, from anti-fascist magazine Searchlight, said: "Myatt is an ethereal character who has used numerous aliases to post messages on extremist websites. He is a dangerous man who has twice been jailed for his violent right-wing activities and who openly asked for blood to be spilled in the quest for white Aryan domination. We believe... he remains a deeply intellectual subversive and is still one of the most hardline Nazi intellectuals in Britain today. Myatt believes in the disruption of existing societies as a prelude to the creation of a new more warrior-like Aryan society which he calls the Galactic Empire."

David Myatt converted to Islam in 1998 and changed his name to Abdul-Aziz ibn Myatt

ONA is also one of the few Satanist orders that avow human sacrifice.

It has been suggested by several individuals interested in The Order of Nine Angles, and in the life and works of Anton Long, that Anton Long was “influenced” by both the system of the Golden Dawn and by Crowley, since – as described in Diablerie: Revelations of a Satanist – Anton Long briefly had some contact with a small ceremonial Golden Dawn based group, in London, when, as a young man, he was beginning his study of The Dark Arts. Thus, the assumption is that the ONA itself – and such things as its Seven Fold Way and the Septenary System – are, in part at least, either derived from or influenced by either the work of Crowley or by The Golden Dawn.
There are also 7 degrees within the order:

Neophyte
Initiate
External Adept
Internal Adept
Master of the temple
Magus
Immortal

  1. You state - "Anton Long was “influenced” by both the system of the Golden Dawn and by Crowley, since..."

    Au contraire mon amie - see

    especially the bit in relation to *Emanations of a Mage*.

    Just because someone *studies* a subject for a short while, does not mean they are influenced by that subject. To assume they are, is illogical.

  2. We would point out that quote "It has been suggested by several individuals interested in The Order of Nine Angles, and in the life and works of Anton Long, that Anton Long was “influenced” by both the system of the Golden Dawn and by Crowley, since – as described in Diablerie:"

    Not that he was outright influenced but that several on-hand individuals think he could have possibly been influenced.

    Now if he was actually "influenced" is open to interpretation.
