Aleister Crowley Diary Entry

Tuesday, 28 April 1942

 

 

[I Ching hexagram] 54.

     

Shrewd conjecture by Mrs. Speller as to the secret design of certain recent regulations: “I think the Government wants to put the nation on a war footing”. So now the mystery is out!

     

The bespectacled crocodile, Miss Sachett, at her work of irritating the tenants and bully-ragging the staff. Has probably been, for many years a workhouse or prison wardress.

     

An unsatisfactory day.

     

House-hunting vain.

     

Bored and irritable.

     

Studio Two capped all!

     

Tot: 1 11/12 [Heroin], about 1/3 gr. needless.

     

Signed papers for Munro.
