Liber AL vel Legis, The Book of the Law, contains three chapters, each of which was written down in one hour, beginning at noon, on April 8, April 9, and April 10 in 1904.

Chapter II verse 38 says: A feast for the three days of the writing of the Book of the Law.

Today is the first day of that three day feast.

The first chapter is dedicated to Nuit and many Thelemites refer to today as ‘Nuit Day’. Here at Tamion Camp we would like to wish you all a very splendourous celebration of this feast day!

But to love me is better than all things: if under the night stars in the desert thou presently burnest mine incense before me, invoking me with a pure heart, and the Serpent flame therein, thou shalt come a little to lie in my bosom. For one kiss wilt thou then be willing to give all; but whoso gives one particle of dust shall lose all in that hour. Ye shall gather goods and store of women and spices; ye shall wear rich jewels; ye shall exceed the nations of the earth in spendour & pride; but always in the love of me, and so shall ye come to my joy. I charge you earnestly to come before me in a single robe, and covered with a rich headdress. I love you! I yearn to you! Pale or purple, veiled or voluptuous, I who am all pleasure and purple, and drunkenness of the innermost sense, desire you. Put on the wings, and arouse the coiled splendour within you: come unto me!  – - [I:61]
