Jane Wolfe Diary Entry

circa December 1940

 

     

 

Unknown to me, John Whiteside Parsons [Jack Parsons], a newcomer, began astral travels. This knowledge decided Regina [Regina Kahl] to undertake similar work. All of which I learned after making my own decision. So the time must be propitious.

     

Incidentally, I take Jack Parsons to be the child who "shall behold them all".

     

26 years of age, 6'2", vital, potentially bisexual at the very least, University of the State of California and Cal Tech., now engaged in Cal Tech chemical laboratories developing "bigger and better" explosives for Uncle Sam. Travels under sealed orders from the government. Writes poetry—"sensuous only." he says. Lover of music, which he seems to know thoroughly. I see him as the real successor of Therion. Passionate; and has made the vilest analyses result in a species of exaltation after the event. Has had mystical experiences which gave him a sense of equality all round, although he is hierarchical in feeling and in the established order.
