Leah Hirsig Diary Entry

Saturday, 11 October 1924

 

 

 

10.35 A.M. O.P.V. [Norman Mudd] slept with me.

 

(Friday) Yesterday—8.50 P.M. OPUS III[1] SILENCE.

 

Up early to-day—started preparations for going any where.

     

8.45 A.M. OPUS IV[1] SILENCE.

     

Remarks about this. This is the first of the 4 that was nearly real silence—

          

No. 1. I uttered consciously and deliberately. For the establishment of the New Civilization.

No. 2. O.P.V. made some personal remark.

No. 3. I said (the usual word).

No. 4 We uttered nothing but at the moment of orgasm the word O M occurred to X [Norman Mudd] and after the sacrament I saw a blue [. . .] with a red flame very like penis.

     

There will be a 5th. Opus in this series. "And therein am I a babe in an egg."

 


 

1.58 by our clock.

     

OPUS V.[1] Interlude for Strength for Babalon.

     

(2.08 by street clock.)

 


 

(Recorded by ZED [Norman Mudd])

     

Saturday Oct. 11 An. XX

     

Having returned and gone to bed (after dinner and a walk) Alostrael [Leah Hirsig] being greatly distressed in her breathing assumed (11.26) the Buddha—Asana and did an exercise in Pranayama.

          

10 cycles — 10,?,10

 11 cycles — 10,10,10 Breathing thereafter much easier.

     

Opus VI Orgasm about 12 midnight.

     

12.9 Babalon begins to speak:—

          

F   E         T

          

(something that looks like a C inverted—you know it goes not C, then T, all capitals.)

          

"Something about 'strong in war' "

          

Black and yellow mottled surface—like a wall paper—something, you know.

          

Then something like a pipe—not exactly like a pipe, you know.

          

Give me the pen and I'll write it. (Did so)

          

There. That's it. That's all.

          

P.S. The letters appeared (visibly) not as one word; but one after the other.

 

 

1—[Leah Hirsig is referring to a magical sexual operation.]
