Will Development Record 18 Oct 91 – 7 Jan 92

[Note: this short book was typed directly by myself from the original]

Plain red book (small)

Inside cover in blue biro:

Book cataloguing eventual successful attempt at Crowley’s will development.

Next page has two blue pieces of tape in the shape of a cross (possibly medical plasters) and a Magickal code name at the top.

The same word occurs on the next page with a universal hexagram. Then the words: Lion, unicorn, ox – and then my legal name.

Then there is something that appears to be a Magickal vow written in enchian script. It has a picture at the top, possibly of a Magickal wand. Then Frater [Magickal code name occurs here] – then my legal signature.

The next page has three more vows (or something) each one signed with my legal signature. One of them is in Theban script.

The next page has one more in enochian script, with the English initials M.A.B.S.
