Liber Aleph

Liber Aleph

"Liber Aleph vel CXI: The Book of Wisdom or Folly" is the title of The Equinox, volume III, number VI, by Aleister Crowley. The book is written in the form of an epistle of the great wild beast to his son.

Up to 1919, Crowley believed that Charles Stansfeld Jones was the child promised in Liber AL. [Harv|Crowley|1991|p=XII] Crowley was evidently aware that Jones was not the prophesied Magickal Son of the Beast, for in the 153rd chapter of the work he reveals the son to have a Taurus Sun, instead of the Aries Sun of Jones.
