Aleister Crowley Diary Entry

Thursday, 19 April 1906

 

 

Did a Tarot for Mr. Volker re a theft.[1] Used my own cards. And why? So as to affirm unselfishness in my A\ aspirations.

     

A. [Elaine Simpson] unwell: therefore Aiwass postponed.

     

A[2] fair. After results again vaguely magnificent—memory seems quite in vain.

 

 

1—Turned out to be not a theft, but a mislaying. Result showed Querent with no loss of repute, and the goods recovered; yet nobody else was in trouble. Considering that the question was ill stated, this is a very fine reading. But I must not feel gratified, save for the relief to Volker's mind.

2—This indicates the Invocation of Augoeides.
