Correspondence from Aleister Crowley to C. F. Russell
THE EQUINOX New York City 63, Washington Square.
Editor-in-Chief ALEISTER CROWLEY Telephone Spring 5672
June 11. [1919]
Care frater,
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
Thanks for yours of June 5. You are delightfully obscure, but I can see as far through a brick wall as most people. However, it would save me a lot of trouble if you were plainer at times. You had better make your rituals from your own ingenium. You rather missed a chance once of learning something. I don't seem to have those 'Ethel' [Ether] notes handy; nothing much happened, anyhow; better trust your memory. All about Tarot in Eqx. I, 8.; better not simplify till you are expert in the regular methods. Good about Anh. Lew. [Anhalonium Lewinii], please send copy of record for my collection. I strongly advise you not to study books about sex; there is a lot of very bad teaching abroad. Don't do anything in that line that a regular doctor would not countenance. When I next see you, perhaps I may give you some reliable information. I hope these lectures of yours are a success. Soror Ahitha [Roddie Minor] promised to send you Eqx. I. 8; I will jog her memory. No. 10 is I don't know where; it will probably turn up soon; if not, I will replace it. I will give your message to W.T. when I see him this P.M.
Love is the law, love under will.
Fraternally
