Aleister Crowley Diary Entry Wednesday, 21 March 1917
An. xiii Sol in Aries. [March 21, 1917 ]
The last few days of the last Equinox have been devoted to the conclusion of various affairs, the revision and edition (in Eq[uinox] V[olume] II, I) of ECCLESIAE GNOSTICAE CATHOLICAE CANON MISSAE, and so on, with the resumption of my Simon Iff novel [Moonchild].
There were several serious obstacles to the due performance of the Ceremony of the Equinox; but I overcame them, and at about 10 p.m. on this day of Jupiter obtained the Word [Word of the Equinox] for the next six months.
ADNIT (In Hebrew T) [ynda]
The Message in Thelema is this LXV V:24. “Also thou art beyond the stabilities of Being and of Consciousness and of Bliss; for I am thou, and the Pillar is ’stablished in the void.” The Tarot gives as a symbol PsS between 6W and 7C (Jupiter in Leo and Venus in Scorpio Victory and Illusionary Success) distrust the Emperor, to whom she looks, and P.C. looking away from her. This girl also suggest the “Brown Girl” in the dream of last summer; but also all promises well for my affairs.
