VII.
Operation: Enthusiastic, but 666 worried about possible interruptions and had to dismiss fear by will.
E1: Juvenile, almost tasteless, not very plentiful. Not ideal for this type of Operation. I shall therefore regard it as a preliminary. Purification by Water and use for the main Opus.
Object: Increase of efficiency in my Magical Power (as opposed to Energy) i.e., to get clean-out decisive results in all matters—absolutely reliable success.
1—Crowley performs a magical sexual operation. 2—Liber כף Agape Azoth sal Philosophorum. The Book of the Unveiling of the Sangraal, wherein it is spoken of the Wine of the Sabbath of the Adepts. A secret instruction of the IX°.
