Aleister Crowley Diary Entry

Monday, 1 May 1939

 

 

[I Ching hexagram] 21.

     

A quite outstanding dream. I was making the Midnight adoration—some man visitor, ?journalist?, rioted. I went on while they suppressed him. The place was an outpost temple. Then I saw a brilliance never seen before: Luna, near full, & two enormous planets, one a definite , nearly as big as .

     

Gelée Cherbourg. Prawns in fish fummet with Shoyu sauce—a little cayenne—remains of Turbot Avignon—more cream. Ice.

     

To Embassy Theatre. "Prison without Bars" v.[ery] good, but misses motive. Invented short prologue to drive home the nail.

     

Back with Ruby [Melville] & Bill Evans.

     

Peggy [Peggy Wetton] in v.[ery] late, but not too drunk; says . . . . from J.B.J. [John B. Jameson].
