Correspondence from Aleister Crowley to Unknown Correspondent

 

 

 

Ivy Cottage,

Knockholt, Kent.

 

 

Nov. 19th, 1929.

 

 

Dear Sir:

 

Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.

 

Thanks for your letter of the 14th inst.

 

Part III of Book 4 is now being issued as “Magick” [Magick in Theory and Practice] by the Master Therion. For this and any other books of mine, you should communicate with Mr. Gerald Yorke,9 Mansfield Street, W. 1.

 

My horoscope is given in the frontispiece of Volume 1 of the “Confessions” [The Confessions of Aleister Crowley]. There is another, with a few minutes difference, in Vol. 1 No. 10 of the “Equinox.”

 

Since we are talking of astrology, I should like to remark that all the critically important events in my life correspond with my nativity in this respect, that Neptune, Luna, and Capricornus are well above the horizon, and all the other planets clustered below. The only exceptions are that once or twice Saturn has been just over the line, also in any case, Mars, and once Herschel is culminating instead of Neptune. The series is quite astonishing.

 

You may be able to get copies from Mr. Yorke.

 

Love is the law, love under will.

 

Yours fraternally,

 

[signed] Aleister Crowley
