grayrosesabbats:

A delicate fabric of bird song
Floats in the air,
The smell of wet wild earth
Is everywhere.
Oh I must pass nothing by
Without loving it much,
The raindrop try with my lips,
The grass with my touch;
For how can I be sure
I shall see again
The world on the first of May
Shining after the rain?
- Sara Teasdale, May Day

Liber AL Chapter II Verse 78

Tue, 16 Apr 2013 23:01:03 +0800

AL II,78. Lift up thyself! for there is none like unto thee among men or among Gods! Lift up thyself, o my prophet, thy stature shall surpass the stars. They shall worship thy name, foursquare, mystic, wonderful, the number of the man; and the name of thy house 418.

Did a brief bit of bibliomancy during my T.’. work tonight (for various reasons) and this came out. Suitable I hope given the conditions of the bibliomancy. And good none-the-less.

Liber AL:III:17.

Wed, 10 Apr 2013 23:39:06 +0800

Liber AL:III:17.

Fear not at all; fear neither men nor Fates, nor gods, nor anything. Money fear not, nor laughter of the folk folly, nor any other power in heaven or upon the earth or under the earth. Nu is your refuge as Hadit your light; and I am the strength, force, vigour, of your arms.

Liber AL:II:24

Tue, 09 Apr 2013 19:08:11 +0800

Liber AL:II:24

Behold! these be grave mysteries; for there are also of my friends who be hermits. Now think not to find them in the forest or on the mountain; but in beds of purple, caressed by magnificent beasts of women with large limbs, and fire and light in their eyes, and masses of flaming hair about them; there shall ye find them. Ye shall see them at rule, at victorious armies, at all the joy; and there shall be in them a joy a million times greater than this. Beware lest any force another, King against King! Love one another with burning hearts; on the low men trample in the fierce lust of your pride, in the day of your wrath.

scrollofthoth:

Today is the first day of the Thelemic high holy days, marking the 109th anniversary of the transmission of the Book of the Law. I give my Thelemite friends shit, sometimes with good reason. But I will admit that Liber Al is the most influential magical text of the modern era. The writing in and of itself was a magical ritual of massive effect.

I hope everyone takes some time the next few days to read it if they have not, and if they have, reflect on how much the text goes beyond the man who wrote it.

Shelf gifted at Christ-mass. Already full. Either I need to find more room in the house for books. Or stop buying books. First option more likely.

[Edit based on comment] This is one shelf of many in the house :) Of course I am going to get more shelves and keep buying books. Definitely a given :)
