Aleister Crowley Diary Entry

Wednesday, 14 December 1921

 

 

Very sick all night—bronchitis, asthma, etc, etc.

     

Heard from Jones [Charles Stansfeld Jones]—Suspect Mrs. Ford has met Rubina [Rubina Stansfeld Jones] and fled from the accursed spot. He is still troubled with Koresh and such filth.

     

How mean, as well as absurd, to fancy this Universe a nutshell—the idea is strangely disgusting.

     

Heard from Mrs. Clarke. What line shall I take? [I Ching Hexagram] Sol of K[teis]. Zui. "Advance". Make frank proposals, without lust of result. Will dictate a letter accordingly.

     

Formula for her initiation. [I Ching Hexagram] Luna of P[hallus]. Hsu. (Worked out my letter to her).

     

On what lines shall I write to Arctaeon [Charles Stansfeld Jones]? [I Ching Hexagram] Air of K[teis]. XX. Kwan EARTH.  Contemplating: manifesting. I have written a very full answer to all his remarks.
