THE EQUINOX but rule-of-thumb! The old Chancery Lane rule: begin with half the minimum dose of the Pharmacopeeia, and if nothing happens within the expected time, double the dose. If you go on long enough, something is nearly sure to happen! IV “The Mind of the Father said Into Three! and immediately all things were so divided.”—ZOROASTER. Let my readers be good enough to remember, then, that what follows concerns myself only. This must excuse the use of the first person, highly improper in a scientific essay, were it not that the personality o…

THE EQUINOX eighteen years ago, in the valley of Hinnom, on the stone called Succoth, bind yourself in a diabolical pact with Satan, whereby he granted the power to change your sex at will, since which time you have become the father of an innumer- able brood of devils, and in particular have travelled by night in the form ofan owl to assault the virtue of many holy servants of the True Faith, notably at the Convent of St Anne in this city, whereby the bodies and souls of the nuns were possessed and destroyed.

THE EQUINOX “Then you believe in the Brothers?“ ”As I revel in the kisses of your mouth,” said the boy, crushing her face against his. A rich gladness filled her eyes, moist gladness; one might say the first gush of an artesian well amid the seas of sand. " Well,” quoth she, cheerful and brisk, to let the mask fall on her blushing soul, “ we have got through six dozen oysters and a devil of a lot of Burgundy. . . . I wonder if I am hungry! " She looked him between the eyes. "Hors d’oeuvresl” said Edgar. “I have a box for the Sam Hall fight" “ Oh d…

THE EQUINOX The brethren present having proved their right to sit, speak and vote, Brother Quilliam called the Convocation to order, and called upon Brother Crowley to read the summons, a copy of which is here appended. This was done. Brother Crowley remarked that no written protest against the present Convocation had been received from any Prince Patriarch, and that it might therefore be taken that no question could hereafter be raised as to the legality of the Convocation. Brother Crowley proposed, and Bro. Theodor Reuss seconded, that Bro. H…

THE EQUINOX Persons impressed by the magnetism of Mr. Home feel a sort of indisposition; it seems to them that the room turns round, and the temperature seems to them to grow rapidly lower. The miracles are more successful in the presence of a few people chosen by the medium himself. In a meeting of several persons, it may be that all will see the miracles—with the exception of one, who will see absolutely nothing. Among the persons who do see, all do not see the same thing. Thus, for example: One evening, at Mme. de B——’s, the medium made appe…

THE EQUINOX Methods of obtaining these states are to be found in any book on Bhakta Yoga—Swami Vivekananda’s is the best I know of—and in Loyola’s “ Exercitios Espirituales,’ whose discipline and method is, in my opinion, unsurpassed. These phenomena are nearly always tainted with sexuality, and are excessively dangerous from this cause. “Dirt is matter in the wrong place,” and to mix, consciously or unconsciously, either morality or immorality with religion is dirty; and dirt makes disease. The victim becomes a fanatic at the best, at the wors…

THE EQUINOX It was a faint tinkle, like a distant cow—bell, or like a chime heard far off, heard from the snow. There was an icy quality in the note. “ Where are you ? " " I—I—” she broke off. His eyes lit with joy. “I am in the sand; I am buried to the waist in the sand. I see nothing but sand." His face {ell again. ”What is sand?” he asked. " Oh—just sand, you know. Leagues and leagues of sand; like a great bowl of sand." “ But what is sand ? " " Sand—oh! sand is God, I suppose." There was a patience and weariness in her voice, as of one who …

THE EQUINOX Looking-Glass; but he was in any case not there, being busy in working out by applied mathematics the problem as to which public man was worthiest of a biography in his columns next week. The words " blasphemous orgie ” altogether fail to give any idea of what occurred. “Twenty-eight naked demi-mondaines now brimmed the buckets with satyrion," hardly describes it. “These loathsome and abominable creatures next aban— doned themselves to frenzied scenes unparalleled in Degenerate Rome,” conveys an altogether false impression.
