Aleister Crowley Diary Entry

Friday, 24 March 1944

 

 

[I Ching hexagram] I.

     

12.31.5 R.[aiders] P.[assed]. Heard no [Air Raid] alert or guns!

     

Chit from Christabel [Lady Aberconway].

     

Ditto Maxwell Armfield.

     

Saw “Circonstances attenuantes”. Delightful comedy; although “moral”, completely free from cant & humbug. Fancy an English or American rendering of the theme—ce serait nauseabond.

     

What course ought I to take about Raids? [I Ching hexagram] Li X “The Tiger”. See esp [I Ching hexagram] lines 1 & 2. Impossible to doubt the order “Stand fast!”. But line 4 suggests that later one might move out. And line 6 might be quoted by [Gk: diabolos]!
