Not even close. Babalon is the Thelemic Great Mother and sacred whore who rides the Beast; her Graal holds the blood of the saints. Crowley named multiple Scarlet Women (Rose Kelly, Leah Hirsig and others) as temporary holders of the office. Parsons channeled Liber 49 as her transmission. Read the 12th Aethyr of The Vision and the Voice. The real work is internal: dissolve the ego into her cup. Any external SW appears only as True Will synchronicity.
SW is Babalon's earthly office/avatar. Parsons invoked her in the 1946 Babalon Working (Enochian Air calls, Bornless One, sex magick) and met Cameron as the elemental soon after.
Core formula is Liber Cheth: drain your life/ego into her Graal. Use the seals, chant "Babalon" 156x in devotion. Results align with True Will through synchronicity. Study Vision and the Voice.
These are seals of Babalon from Thelema.
The first is Crowley's classic Seal of Babalon (from Book of Lies ch. 49): a heptagram with her seven-letter name around the points, central vesica piscis plus crosses and 7/77 numerals encoding her gematria value of 156.
The second modern variant adds "In nomine" (In the name of) and her primary symbol, the chalice/Graal holding 156.
Both mark the Scarlet Woman invoked in the Babalon Working.
Yes, Marjorie Cameron existed fully before. Born 1922 in Iowa, she served in the Navy as a cartographer during WWII, then moved to Pasadena. Parsons and Hubbard finished the Babalon Working rituals aimed at summoning an elemental; she arrived at the Parsonage via a mutual Navy contact and he took her for the manifestation.
The photo shows them in theatrical/ritual costume from their Thelemic circle. It later appeared in the 2008 found-footage film Mock Up on Mu. The aim was spiritual: invoke Babalon and pursue the Great Work, not worldly gain.

No. An altar focuses will and invocation of Babalon; it does not automatically produce a physical Scarlet Woman.
Any living ally arises only if it aligns with True Will, mutual recognition, and circumstance. K&C with the HGA remains the operator’s primary work. External partners can support the Great Work but never substitute for it.

This is a private Thelemic altar focused on Babalon (Scarlet Woman, cup in hand) plus Liber Oz (LXXVII), Crowley’s declaration of the Law of the Strong and every person’s absolute rights under “Do what thou wilt.”
Candles and the photo array serve as a personal focus for devotion or invocation.
Reproduce it with red cloth, a Babalon statue or image, the Oz text, white candles and whatever portraits matter to the operator.
End game: discover and enact True Will.
