She is “ addicted to the thrill” of being on the dark side and she knows that dealing with it is a “ dangerous love affair“. The torches hint to a new spiritual and philosophical era where Lucifer is king. Rihanna’s lyrics are announcing an imminent change that might terrify or enrage some people (“ hear the screams from everywhere“).
Guess Rihanna can’t make this clearer for you Rihanna’s ominous intro explains how it is going down.įeeling it coming in the air, hear the screams from everywhere, I’m addicted to thrill, Its a dangerous love affair, Can’t be scared when it goes down, got a problem tell me now, Only thing that’s on my mind is who gon run this town tonight, who gon run this town tonite Consequently, the video contains a second level of interpretation: “Run This Town” is an announcement of the coming of a New World Order, lead by secret (Luciferian) societies. “Run This Town” visually represents this aim in a clear way for the initiates yet concealed for the profane. The goal of the Illuminist has been put in plain in simple words: they are dedicated to the “ coming forth of the conquering light“. The Torch of Illumination is the ultimate symbol of this philosophy and can be found in many instances (see Statue of Liberty, a gift from French Freemasons).

At the philosophical center of this order: the Luciferian Doctrine, where men are free to become gods by their own means. These orders (the main one being Freemasonry) have been working for centuries towards the overthrow of the rule of organized religions to usher in a new age or a “New Order”. Most occult orders secretly acknowledge Lucifer as being the savior of humanity, the fallen angel who liberated men from the oppression of the biblical God (Jehovah, Yahweh). Report this adAnybody vaguely familiar with occultism can easily associate the symbol of the lit torch held high to Lucifer a.k.a. This symbolic gesture sums up perfectly the concept of the video. At the beginning of the video, a man hands a lit torch to Rihanna who holds it up in the air. Is this a political rebellion or could it be philosophical/spiritual? The visuals of the video hint a second, occult meaning to the song. Despite the looks, the artists aren’t quite revolutionary, they can even be considered pro-establishment. This isn’t exactly the type of speech Che Guevara would give. Jay-Z and Kanye are mainly rapping about how rich and famous they are and are describing bourgeoisie luxuries such as Maison Martin Margiela clothes, bottles of Riesling and Maybach cars. When one listens closely to the lyrics, however, something seems to be “off”. The aesthetics of the video are reminiscent of movements led by rebel factions in third world African or Latino countries. So this is the video at face value: Jay-Z, Rihanna, and Kanye West are performing in front of an angry mob, which is apparently out to overthrow the current order of things and thus “Run This Town”. We will, however, see that he is very educated in the field of occult symbolism and that he enjoys hinting people that he associates with the Brotherhood. Or does he just like that shirt? Don’t know.

Baphomet is, of course, the horned androgynous idol of Western Occultism. The Old and New Commentaries to Liber AL, II,28.Īlthough not officially considered “satanic”, the O.T.O. To hell with “moral principle” there is no such thing” Crowley explains this notion rather clearly here: In other words, the usual guidelines by which good and evil are determined to have to be blurred and forgotten to obtain the true path to illumination. Although this saying was interpreted in different ways, most agree that it refers to the dismissal of conventional moral and ethical rules in order to find one’s “True Will”. Is however based on the “Law of Thelema” which main precept is “Do What Thou Wilt be the whole of the Law“. Is a hermetic order modeled after Freemasonry and German Illuminism and teaches its initiates the secrets of the Mysteries, Gnosticism, sex magick, Kaballah and other occult sciences. Contrarily to Freemasonry, the O.T.O. “Do What Thou Wilt” is the official dictum of the Ordo Templi Orientis (O.T.O.) and of its reformer, occultist Aleister Crowley.
He also enjoyed being called “The wickedest man in the world”.
