Aleister Crowley Diary Entry Rex de Arte Regia Wednesday, 27 October 1915
OPUS[1] CXVIII
[EXTRACT]
[3:27 p.m.]
[Assistant:] Juanita, a half-caste Mexican Indian prostitute; very nice, agreeable, and sensual.
[Despite all his] sex feeling [being aimed at Hilarion (Jeanne Foster), and despite its being undertaken against his] human will [the opus was done for] proper magical reasons.
Object: Magick Power. This has special reference to my wish to declare myself, and master California.
[Result:] I went to see one of my introductions, and I think made a very big impression. I was full of life and glow, and felt myself radiating force in all directions.
[November 2] Everything looks as if this were going to work out A1.
1—[Crowley performs a magical sexual operation.]
