Marcelo Motta Diary Entry

Sunday, 3 February 1957

February 3, Sunday:

At 3.50 this afternoon, lying in the position of the Hanged Man, as Osiris the Aspirant, I affirmed my Oath unto the light of Horus; and my Aspiration unto the Knowledge and Conversation of my Holy Guardian Angel; and my blessing and worship of the Prophet of the Lovely Star, and my will to help the establishing of the Law of Thelema in this Aeon of Horus; and I offered unto this end, which all together comprises the Great Work (knowing that it is mine Angel that has brought me here), all that I am and all that I have, which is the world, and therefore nothing.

And I also swore that if I do not attain to submit this human self to the light within my Heart, let this self and its Ego be given unto Choronzon—unto whom be Restriction in the name of Babalon!

So mote it be. And now I am very hungry . . .
