Aleister Crowley Diary Entry

Friday, 22 April 1938

 

 

[I Ching Hexagram] 20.

     

[Newspaper cutting by Driberg [Tom Driberg] on tooth]

     

Mattie [Pickett]. Opus.[1] The best for years: the perfect mate. She had been living for 10 years by "Do what thou wilt" told her by FitzGerald [Edward Noel FitzGerald]-Haurachan(?).

     

My relation with her: [I Ching Hexagram] 23. Po. Sagittarius. ? Should this have been [I Ching Hexagram] 2 Khwan? I think so: a moral idea made me refuse to turn over the 6th shell.

     

But see April 21.
