…ning body of the blackmaier, I was looking at the face of a girl that I had never seen before. And I said to myself, “‘ Well, that’s all right, I’ve known you all my life.” And when I said to myself “my life,” I didn’t in the least mean my life as Peter Pendragon, I didn’t even mean a life extending through the centuries, I meant a different kind of life—some- thing with which centuries have nothing whatever to do. And then Peter Pendragon came wholly back to himself with a start, and wondered whether he had not perhaps looked a little rudely a…
THELEMIC MORALITY 311 the Instinct should override the decision of the Reason. Obviously, one must assume that both are equally "right"; that one's interpretation of one's Instinct is full and accurate, that one's solution of "how shall I act for the best?" is uniquely correct. First of all, one is tempted to argue that, that being so, there can be no disagreement; that is, on our general Theory of the Universe. True enough! The farther one goes in initiation, the rarer will such incidents become. Even a quite uninitiated person-always provided…
…there also dwells a sun between the four petals, which continuously exudes a poison. This venom (the sun-fluid of mortality) goes to the right nostril, as the moon-fluid of immortality goes to the left, by means of the Pingala which rises from the left side of the Ajna lotus. The Mdladhara is also the seat of the Apana. 2. The Svadisthéna Chakkra. This Chakkra is situated at the base of the sexual organ. It has six petals.

…anx like unto a Cone, that is the noblest of all solid figures, being the Image of the Holy Phallus Itself, and combineth in himself the Right Line and the Circle. Thus, son, dealeth He; and the Fire kindleth the Wood, and the heat thereof driveth the Water afar off. Yet this Water is a cunning adversary, and He strengtheneth Wood against Fire by impregnating him with much of his own substance, as it were by spies in the citadel of an ally that is not wholly trusted. Now then there- fore what must the Magician do? He must first expel utterly Wa…
Phaeton 43 right kind of nothing. But I divined a certain shrewd- ness in his eyes; it belied his mask of ostentatious innocence. There was another man there too, a kind of half- baked Nonconformist parson, one Jabez Platt, who had realised early in life that his mission was to go about doing good. Some people said that he had done a great deal of good—to himself. His principle in politics was a very simple one: If you see anything, stop it; everything that is, is wrong; the world is a very wicked place. He was very enthusiastic about putting t…
… go shopping after- wards like good little millionairesses.”’ “ Yes, indeed,” said Platt heartily and quite genuinely, “they’re that all right. As for us, we'll lunch at Sweeting’s on oysters and stout and drink to the prosperity of Parliamentary Institutions.”’ I laughed at the little. joke, like a madman, and shouted wildly :— “ Comein, girls, and hear the news. We're all going to be elected to the Diamond Dog-collar Club.”
…inquired. “My will, of course,” came the answer, and her eyes twinkled in the sunshine as unfathomably as the sea itself. “ Thou hast no right but to do thy will,” she quoted. “Do that and no other shall say nay.” “Oh, yes,’”’ I retorted, with a trace of annoyance. I had still a feeling of reaction against the Book of the Law. I hated to submit to a formula, however much

The further you advance in the Order the more will you fmd yourself pestered by people who have simply failed to understand this point of Magical theory. Another thing is that the business of teaching itself is a very tricky one; even such simple matters as travelling on the astral plane are not to be attained by any amount of teaching unless the pupil has bot…
…ies, of doubts, of fears, of indecisions? As an Artist you are a consecrated Virgin Priestess, the Oracle of the Most High. None has the right to approach you save with the most blessed awe, with arms outstretched as to invoke your benediction. By "spiritually" you mean no more than "according to the lower and middle-middle-class morality of the Anglo-Saxon of the period when Longfellow and Tennyson were supposed to be poets, and Royal Academicians painters." There is a highly popular school of "occultists" which is 99 percent an escape-mechani…
…struction on this matter, and the Word best suited to the AZon of Horus, is written in the Book of the Law. Yet also the Book Ararita is right worthy in the Work of the Light, as Trigrammaton in that of Will, Cordis Cincti Serpente in the Way of Love, and Liberi in that of Life. All these Books also concern all these Four Gifts, for in the end you will see that every one is inseparable from every other. I wish to write to you with regard to the number 93, the number of @EAHMA. For it is not only the number of its inter- pretation ArAUH, but als…

… telegram of the day before. I had a swift pang of alarm. Could something be wrong ?. But the cocaine assured me that everything was all right. “Tl have to see the fellow, I suppose,’ I said, and told the hall-boy to send him upstairs. “Don’t let him keep you long,” said Lou, with a petulant pout, and ran into the bedroom after a swift embrace, so violent that it disarranged my new Charvet necktie. The man came up. I was a little bored by the gravity of his manner, and rather disgusted by its solemn deference. Of course, one likes being treated…

His voice had a wail of comic disgust. "However, this is Cyril's funeral, not mine. He called me in; I must say I approve of his general plan, on the whole, and I dare say much of the opposition is unavoidab…

We have already seen the most determined opposition to our plans; and for my part, I would say frankly that it might be wiser, certainly safer, to abandon them." Lisa turned on him like a tigress. "I don't know what your plans are, and don't care. But I didn't think you'd go back on them." "Impulsive ladies," returned Cyril, "rush in where angel…
…m moral maladies of a similar sort. She had always taken for truth any assertion that sounded impressive and seemed to suit her ideas of right and wrong. She was shocked to the limit by our principles and conduct. She gazed with a dropped jaw and glassy eyes, wondering how it was that the frightful catastrophes which were bound to result did not happen. It was a little like those crofters at foyers waiting to see the wrath of God consume the aluminum works that scorned the sabbath. Was she dreaming? Were we really living, loving and laughing, h…
…he smiled, with such seductive sublimity that something in me nearly fainted with delight. “ Hold up, Cockie,’’ she chirped. ‘“‘It’s all right. You're it, and I’m it, and I’m your little wife.” I could have torn the upholstery out of the taxi. I felt myself a giant. Gargantua was a pigmy. I felt the need of smashing something into matchwood, and I was all messed up about it because it was Lou that I wanted to smash, and at the same time she was the most precious and delicate piece of porcelain that ever came out of the Ming dynasty or whatever …
