Aleister Crowley Diary Entry

Saturday, 5 October 1940

 

 

[I Ching Hexagram] 38.

     

Letter from Gerald Hamilton.

     

Went to Grand Hotel to lunch—against my better judgment, on a lunch. Old Devey came up & said a girl, interested in drawings, knew a friend of mine. Interested: G.H. [Gerald Hamilton] was friend!

     

£5 from Frieda [Frieda Harris]: just caught postmen.

     

Strong Time element in several bits of luck.

     

£3.10.9 from Dennes—with story of damage in Chancery Lane.

     

Visited Gibbons—night place, but too many people—Saturday night.

     

Note. Girl was hunchback (see [I Ching Hexagram] 38 line 6). Karen de Beaufort.

     

Message: [I Ching Hexagram] 48 Zing (the Well). Luna/Air. Relations with me: [I Ching Hexagram] 59. Hwan. Air/Luna. Curious: can’t get meaning.
