… be sure that the Event will show that the exact wording was so shaded as to prove to us absolute foreknowledge on the part of That Most Holy Angel who uttered the Book. Note, pray thee, further, in verse 39, how the matter pro- ceeds: “All this”—+.e. the Book of the Law itself. “and a book to say how thou didst come hither” i.e. some record such as that in the Temple of Solomon the King. 177
THE BOOK OF WISDOM OR FOLLY 177 #t De Herbo Sanctissimo Arabico (Of the Most Holy Grass of the Arabs) ECALL, o my Son, the Fable of the Hebrews, which they brought from the City Babylon, how Nebuch- adnezzar the Great King, being afflicted in his Spirit, did depart from among Men for Seven Years Space, eating Grass as doth an Ox. Now this Ox is the Letter Aleph, and is that Atu of Thoth whose Number is Zero, and whose name is Maat, Truth, or Maut, the Vulture, he All- Mother, being an Image of Our Lady Nuith, but also it is called the Fool, wh…

THE EQUINOX balancing before him their tempting, repulsive, holy and foul, loose or firm, twin breasts. Himself, cloven-hoofed and curl- horned, had to flagellate his own flesh with iron chains, which failed to overcome the moral urtication, as had the repeated physical purgings of his early years. Narcissus, in a corner, pale and smiling, urged him to renewed efforts; Spirits, both incubi and succubae, thrusting themselves upon him, ate him away... But all these dreams gradually faded out.

LIBER ALEPH VEL CXI 134 Ed De Natura Feminæ (Of the Nature of Woman) HE Nature of Woman, o my Son, is as thou hast learned in our most Holy Qabalah; and she is the Clothing in Sex of Man, the Magical Image of his Will to Love. Therefore was it said by thine Uncle Wolfgang von Goethe: Das Ewigweibliche zieht uns hinan. But therefore also hath she no Nature of Truth, because she is but the Eidolon of an Excitement and a Going of thy Star, and appertaineth not unto its Essence and Stability. So then to thee she is but Matter and to her thou art bu…

…t ritual be a constant and perfect link between Us . . . so that at all times I may be perfect in Thy Knowledge and Conversation, Ο mine Holy Guardian Angel! to whom I have aspired these ten years past. And though as it may seem I now compose myself to sleep, I await Thee . . . I await Thee! I arise from sleep, mine eyes a little weary, my soul fresh, my heart restored.
…h looked forth upon the Bier That goeth to the House of Rest ! His heart is lit with melody ; Peace in his house is master of fear ; His holy Name is in the West When the sun sinks, the royal rays Of moonrise flash across the days ! I have risen ! I have risen ! as a mighty hawk of gold ! From the golden egg I gather, and my wings the world enfold. I alight in mighty splendour from the thrond boats of light ; Companies of Spirits follow me ; adore the Lords of Night. Yea, with gladness did they pæan, bowing low be-fore my car, In my ears thei…
…old com- munion with his own ; but do not condemn others. “A religious practice is never contemptible, for it is the sign of a great and holy thought. “To pray together is to communicate in the same hope, the same faith, and the same charity. “The sign by itself is nothing; it is the faith which sanctifies it. “Religion is the most sacred and the strongest bond of human association, and to perform an act of religion is to perform an act of humanity.” When men understand at last that one must not dispute about things about which one is ignorant,…

…Your Experiences Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law_ There is no better way to training the memory than the practice of the Holy Qabalah. The whole mechanism of memory depends on joining up independent data. You must go on adding a little to little, always joining the simple impressions by referring them to others which are more general; and so on until the whole of your universe is arranged like the brain and the nervous system. This system in fact, becomes the Universe. When you have got everything properly correlated, your centr…

But your holy place shall be untouched throughout the centuries: though with fire and sword it be burnt down & shattered, yet an invisible house there standeth, and shall stand until the fall of the Great Equinox; when Hrumachis shall arise and the double-wanded one assume my throne and place. Another prophet shall arise, and bring fresh fever from the skies; another woman shall awake the lust Sc worship of the Snake; …
Ι 2.43. 1.25. 76 THE EQUINOX Knowledge and Conversation of the Holy Guardian Angel is only to be performed when the Magus has rowed himself completely out; in the language of the Tarot, when the Magus has become the Fool. But for my faith in the Ritual DCLXXI. I should be at the end of my spells. Well? We shall see in the upshot. I really almost begin to believe IT will happen. For I lay down quite free of worry or anxiety (hugging myself, as it were), perfectly sure of Him in the simple non-assertive way that a child is sure of its mother, in …
…s is a prophet, and he prophesied—clearly, in so many words—that the water would be pure this year. And besides, our first founder was a holy man, who performed a special miracle to make it pure for ever!” “Your evidence is as tainted as your water,” replied the now infuriated householder. So off they went to the Judge. The Judge heard the case carefully. ‘‘ My good friends!” said he, “ you've neither of you got a leg to stand on; for in all you say there is not one grain of proof.—The case is dismissed.” 7

But if such a person is in- accessible, let him choose any one with whom he has constant inter- course, explain the circumstances, and ask him to act. The person should if possible be trustworthy; and let the Chela remember that if he should be ordered to jump over a cliff it is very much better to do it than to give up the practice. And it is of the very greatest importance not to limit the vo…
