A.M. |

35’ on astral.
During night mind felt tight,
“chatter” floated across it. Recited Book of Law,
but with drowsiness and lack of control when falling
asleep mind would again start up. This morning drove
something out of—heart centre; the centre of the
physical body.
Other work on upper part of
body and head.
There is a certain splendid
something about Lea [Leah Hirsig],
something fine. Again a spiritual communion,[1]
but a spot in me is contemptuous of her. What, and
why?
10’ Harpocrates. Entire
consciousness focussed in—astral?
This form of concentration—in
astral?—is the most strenuous I have done, but there
is a feeling of well-being afterwards; a physical
fitness results, as did not the former way. I notice
it during the day, also—perhaps more so. |

P.M. |
|
Prayer at altar—become
conscious of stone while at altar. |
2:30 |
|
A pillar composed of many
stones—it stood to my right, I directly by it.
(Heretofore everything has been to my left) On a
slight elevation. Water flowed from base of pillar,
in front of me, clear. Started off from left, at an
angle; did not will this, consciously nothing, I
willed myself back. Then appeared before me, a
figure of masculine appearance, raiment soft white,
diaphanous, dark hair. Could not see face. I
challenged this figure; it neither answered nor
departed. I said nothing, nor did I approach. Figure
then left me, descended hill, joined female waiting
there and arms about one another, departed. Then, to
my left, was impressed by a feminine attribute of
this male figure that it needed me. |
3:00 |
|
Then came one, in the same
place, who seemed black, but I noticed on close
inspection the robe was a black-violet. This one
faced me.
Do not understand either. |
6:15 |
|
1/2 Capsule of grass. |
10:00 |
|
Worked on a scenario—Cached
Ruby—do not like it at all.
Afterwards tried work—grass!
So began analyzing.
Dignity seems to be completely
one—the sense of
Sense of steadfastness from
along spine.
Sense of looking away from self
just above the ears.
There is a feeling in me of
proud assurance.
A beautiful blue, when closing
eyes and concentrating.
Faith of child, without
convictions, realizing child ignorance.
I cuddle and protect something
that needs up-rooting. What?
Something lazy.
Astral sediment. |

complexes resent her simplicity, which is her one and only
asset.
