About meI am just a regular person who happens to be a Thelemite. I explore and practice magick in it's various schools and forms. I like to be very well informed on any subject I care to delve into. I have always been very much like this since I was in Middle School. I love books and those things that have anything to do with them. I am a bibliomaniac without a doubt. A lot of what I have gotten was because of the lack in resources here locally so I have had to make up for that. What kind of Thelemite doesn't have a library?

About my libraryMy library is the result of my continuing quest for knowledge. So I have collected a great deal that couldn't find locally any other way at the time. Over the years I have had and have many interests and I think that my library reflects that.

I started collecting as a teenager. My bedroom and later my parents Recreation room had my library from that era and to great extant during my college years and for awhile, after I graduated. My sister decided to clear the rec room and delivered whats left of my fathers and my books to me on my front porch without letting me know in advance, Thank You Lisa! I Love U! :-( Thank Heaven I got there just as it started to rain. I have yet to catalog or even go through all the boxes yet. Like all good things it will take time. A small update as of August 2009. I am now finally going through those boxes my sister left on my old porch. I have since moved as of 1 April 2009. It was quite a load.

Re: Inside Solar Lodge - Outside the Law":
Your review of this book says, "He [Frater Aquarius] and his wife Mildred initiated Jean Brayton into O.T.O. and perhaps the A:.A:., Frater Shiva isn't clear on this. Looking back it would be easy to see why maybe Fr. Aquarius felt it was necessary to do so."

The author could have been much more clear, but he was requested by the O.T.O. to subdue or delete his original remarks. How do I know this? I am Frater Shiva.

Hi Gary,

I am not familiar with William Bostock or I Cleopatra.

My library includes even more novels that are not gay.

Welcome and thank you for mixing the 93 current into xaos at heart! TabithaBethia
Impressive Crowley collection. I'm jealous.
Hey Suralon

I'm a Thelemite living in Wollongon, Australia. I've just joined LibraryThing and came across your collection because you share a lot of Crowley titles with me. I am interested in those "Genesis of Libri AL" volumes you have. Where did you get those? I haven't heard of them. You can email me (if you wish) at: lvxnox@iinet.net.au.

Wow, your library is huge. And just from brousing it seems you have some books which were not cheap or easy to obtain. Just wanted to drop you a line and let you know I envy some of the books in your collection. :)
Take care.
