… have called her, and Malkah, and Betulah, and Persephone. And the poets have feigned songs about her, and the prophets have spoken vain things, and the young men have dreamed vain dreams; but this is she, that immaculate, the name of whose name may not be spoken. Thought cannot pierce the glory that defendeth her, for thought is smitten dead before her presence. Memory is blank, and in the most ancient books of Magick are neither words to conjure her, nor adorations to praise her. Will bends like a reed in the tempests that sweep the borders o…
THE EQUINOX This was the way in which he would divine the forth- coming year. He did various things of a quite ordinary nature with an intense magical intention. He had asked a disciple to write him a message to be opened at midnight. The disciple, being a fool, wrote a foolish message, but none the less inspired. The diary continues thus— “Sought accidental symbols while looking for a black woman to represent Binah” (to which he was aspiring). “Entered by chance, firstly, Queen’s Hotel [can this refer to Binah?] and Leicester.” (Leicester was …

But I have burnt within thee as a pure flame without oil. In the midnight I was brighter than the moon; in the daytime I exceeded utterly the sun; in the byways of thy being I flamed, and dispelled the illusion. 10. Therefore thou art wholly pure before Me; therefore thou art My virgin unto eternity. 11. Therefore I love thee with surpassing love; therefore they that despise thee shall adore thee. 1…
…he Way. As in the Yi King, the 3rd hexagram has departed from the original perfection, and it takes all the rest of the hexagrams to put things right again. The result, it is true , is superior; the perfection of the original has been enhanced and enriched by its experience. There is another way of defining the Great Work that explains to us the whole object of manifestation, of departing from the perfection of "Nothing" towards the perfection of "everything," and one may consider this advantage, that it is quite impossible to go wrong. Every e…
