Aleister Crowley Diary Entry Saturday, 26 November 1898
Notes of Astral Travel
No. 9. Desire further information. November 26th 1898. Being very tired, concentration of through imperfect.
White robe.
H.G. [Holy Guardian] Angel or sylph immediately conducts me to an oblong room. Four square altar of gold. Gold stalls. Throne dimly seen at East end. I kneel at West of alter, take an oath, (? what) stretch out hands over altar—much brilliance in room. Person administering the oath in long white robes, crowned (?) Egyptian type. I cannot understand, go out and up, before the platform of a god. I am in a temple, I fancy. The god is like a bull, a hawk, a man—I cannot remember clearly. Certain things passed—good things, I am not clear about anything. I descend, Sylph or H.G.A. kisses me as I reenter circle. Astral kneels and gives thanks. Return.
