Aleister Crowley Diary Entry

Tuesday, 26 August 1941

 

 

[I Ching hexagram] 42.

     

Wrote Whiteley’s about Oliver.

     

Frieda [Frieda Harris] wrote asking me to lunch Friday.

     

12 1/4 Driberg [Tom Driberg] at Holborn Restaurant drinks. Bet

me a drink he had a paper with no reference to V sign—he lost. Aha!

     

Caton here 2 P.M. Tarot completely baffled him! He unmasked: really he wants books on torture and flagellation! I feigned an appointment with Winant; only got rid of him when under the protection of the Stars and Stripes!

     

Wrote Eileen suggesting that MM—— of [saturn jupiter pentagram] might use us in his job.
