De Somniis.
d: Sequentia
(Of Dreams. IV: Contination)
NOW firmly, o my son, that the true Will cannot
err; for this is thine appointed course in Heaven, in
whose order is Perfection.
A Dream of Horror is therefore the most serious of all
Warnings; for it signifieth that thy Will, which is Thy Self in
respect of its Motion, is in Affliction and Danger. Thus thou
must instantly seek out the Cause of that subconscious
Conflict, and destroy thine Enemy utterly by bringing thy
conscious Vigour as an Ally to that true Will. If then there
be a Traitor in the Consciousness, how much the more is it
necessary for thee to arise and extirpate him before he wholly
infect thee with the divided Purpose which is the first Breach
in that Fortress of the Soul whose Fall should bring it to the
shapeless Ruin whose Name is Choronzon!
