Jimmy Page’s Occult Obsession: Crowley, Zoso & Led Zep’s Dark Myths

This in-depth video from Wes’s Tone Foundry explores the enigmatic “dark side” of Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page, diving into his well-documented fascination with Aleister Crowley and Thelema. It covers real elements like the “Do what thou wilt” inscriptions on Led Zeppelin III vinyl, the mysterious Zoso symbol, Page’s ownership of Crowley’s haunted Boleskine House, his short-lived occult bookshop, and his collaboration (and feud) with filmmaker Kenneth Anger on Lucifer Rising. While addressing persistent rumors—curses on the band, satanic backmasking in “Stairway to Heaven,” and wilder internet myths like a cinnamon obsession—the video balances fact, symbolism, and rock legend, portraying Page as both a genuine seeker of esoteric knowledge and a master showman who understood the power of mystery.
