There will be a feast and business meeting at our Cardiff location on November 7. All initiated members of the Order are welcome to attend – we’d love to see as many people as possible from the South West area, since we’ll be laying out plans for the next months activities. If you would like to come, please RSVP for details, or leave a message on our Facebook page.

As the name would suggest, please bring a pot of food to add to the pile!

Today is the last day of the three day feast for the writing of The Book of The Law.

The final chapter is dedicated to Ra-Hoor-Khuit.

We really hope that you have enjoyed the three days of feasting and that we may see you at Tamion Camp in the near future.

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. – - [III:17]

Happy second day of the three day feast of the writing of The Book of The Law!

The second chapter is dedicated to Hadit and many Thelemites refer to today as ‘Hadit Day’. Have a wonderful feast day however you celebrate it.

I am the flame that burns in every heart of man, and in the core of every star. I am Life, and the giver of Life, yet therefore is theknowledge of me the knowledge of death. – - [II:6]

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]
