LIBER ALEPH VEL CXI 124 Ds De Libidine Secreta (Of the Concealed Desire) T is said among Men that the Word Hell deriveth from the Word helan, to hele or conceal, in the Tongue of the Anglo- Saxons. That is, it is the concealed Place, which, since all things are in thine own Self, is the Unconscious. How then? Because Men were already aware how this Unconscious, or Libido, is opposed, for the most Part, to the conscious Will. In the Slave-Ages this is a Truth Universal, or well night to it; for in such Times are Men compelled to Uniformity by th…

He is the boundless air, the wander- ing Ghost, but with “possibilités”. He is the Naught that the Two hâve made by “love under will”. LA thus represents the Ecstasy of Nuit and Hadit conjoined, lost in love, and making themselves Naught thereby. Their child is begotten and conceived, but is in the phase of Naught also, as yet.
