Aleister Crowley Diary Entry

Thursday, 16 September 1920

 

 

12.40 a.m. (Actually 11.40 p.m.) Opus[1] I, 31-666-31 [Leah Hirsig], p[er] o[s] D[ominae][2]. The Ceremony of the Equinox.

     

I chose to advance the time so that the Mysterium might not be self-conscious. She uttered the Word: 'Oh, so much!' Opus most admirable in every way. I had the idea as OCELLI[3] had referred to Sun and Moon, the New Word would refer to Star. She says: 'Word means Plenty.'

     

3.00 p.m. I note in CCXX, Sun = 200, Moon = 100, Winged Secret Flame= 300; Stooping Starlight= 5, 605. Look this up further!

 

 

1—[Crowley performs a magical sexual operation.]

2—[Per os. By the mouth, i.e. oral sex.]

3—[The Word of the Equinox for Spring.]
