Aleister Crowley Diary Entry Rex de Arte Regia Sunday, 21 March 1915
Opus[1] XXXIX - XL
11.30 p.m. Weather cool and cloudy. Lights of temple (four small).
The true moment of Equinox was 4.51 p.m.
Frater Perdurabo in manu illius.[2]
Object: To obtain The Word of the Masters for the Equinox [The Word of Equinox] following.
The Operation was most extraordinary, being done in full open Temple of Neophyte A∴A∴ in the Ceremony of the Equinox.
The orgasm and ejaculation were double, as it were twins, and in the instant between the two, the word DUPLEX was placed in my mind with a clarity and certitude that I have never previously known. The Elixir was abundant and excellent.
Result: As above recorded, great success. Very remarkable all this; it is a word of mystic marriage of A∴A∴ and O.T.O.
4 June. It is clearly the right word.
