Aleister Crowley Diary Entry

Monday, 30 October 1944

 

 

[I Ching hexagram] 50.

     

2 1/4 Dream. Evan [Evan Morgan], Lea [Leah Hirsig] one other my house where. L.[eah] & I sleeping together.

     

My [Heroin] syringe mislaid, lost, found, moved, broken slightly, then more till prepared dose was lost.

     

Change of rooms etc. added to confusion. N.B. [I Ching hexagram] 50 Ting describes this very well!!

     

9 1/45 AM Began Z10 on Niggers [for Magick Without Tears]!

     

Beetle-killer here .... man from Ministry of Supply. God! Accepted hospitality; asked me to lunch; didn’t warn me before questioning. He admitted that there had been a complaint (Gestapo-wise) so they were officially obliged to enquire.

     

Went on with Z10 & (surprisingly!) finished it. But is it evasion?
