… was finally published in a sort of periodical encyclopedia (already almost impossible to find, such was the demand for it) entitled The Equinox. Now in the science of antiquity, much classification depended upon the planets. Those things which were hot and fiery in their nature, lions, and pepper, and fevers, were classed under the Sun or Jupiter or Mars; things swift and subtle under Mercury; things cold and heavy under Saturn, and so forth. Yet the principles of most of the planets appeared in varying proportions in almost everything; and th…

THE EQUINOX forces is the pathway made to true occult knowledge and practical power. Good alone is mighty, and Truth alone shall prevail; Evil is but weakness, and the power of evil ; magic exists but in the contest of unbalanced forces, which in the end will destroy and ruin him who hath subjugated himself thereto. As it is said: “stoop not down, for a precipice lieth beneath the Earth ; a descent of Seven steps; and therein is established the throne of an Evil and Fatal force. Stoop not down unto that dark and lurid world, defile not thy bril…

The letter Hé is the formula of Nuith, which makes possible the process described in the previous notes. But it is not permissible here to explain fully the exact matter or manner of this adjustment. I hâve preferred the exoteric attributions, which are sufficiently informative for the beginner. 25

Liber 185 need not be quoted at length. It is needful only to say that the Aspirant is trained systematically and comprehensively in the various technical practices which form the basis of Our Work.

…nsforms the planet on which he lives by the installation of new officers to preside over its initiation. This can take place only at an “Equinox of the Gods” at the end of an “Aeon”; that is, when the secret formula which expresses the Law of its action becomes outworn and useless to its further development. (Thus “Suckling” is the formula of an infant: when teeth appear it marks a new “Aeon”, whose “Word” is “Eating”). A Magus can therefore only appear as such to the world at inter- vals of some centuries; accounts of historical Magi, and thei…

THE EQUINOX How To Keep Fir. By C. T. SCHOFIELD, M.D. W. Rider and Sons. ts. net. There is a deal of sound sense in this little manual. The author castigates faddists, though to my mind not severely enough. However, I suppose that in this mealy-mouthed age the truth is not printable. It is a little amusing, though, to see how he tries to make his commonsense fit into his Christianity. It is the Puritan theory that theological sin, which means everything you like, is bad for you, that is responsible, according to statistics, for 79°403% of all t…

October 9, 9.6 P.M. (This was the 9th day of Section C, and the 39th day of the complete Operation.) The ‘state’ is getting more and more difficult to describe, in fact I don’t know what to make of it. I might almost say I feel ‘normal’; and yet there is a subtle difference. There is (I think) an entire absence of fear, wor…
