Aleister Crowley Diary Entry Sunday, 9 October 1921
Slept well, though not till late. My nerves are very bad this morning. I can hardly hold the pen.
4.30 P.M. Played cards with Leah [Leah Hirsig]—after running through some old Magical Diaries—an mow writing to Marian Higginbottom, whose general symbol of [I Ching Hexagram] Water of Sol 49 Change, and her use for our purpose [I Ching Hexagram] Air of Water 61. The Boat! ! ! Hurrah!
6.16 P.M. For the last 2 hours, nearly, I have enjoyed a sudden release from the anxieties at the back of my brain, as if the ordeal was in some way over. There is no rational basis for any such feeling.
How shall I spend the evening? [I Ching Hexagram] 54. Fire of Water Kwei Mei. Can't get this. Will go on revising CCXX: Cap. II.
