The Llewellyn Encyclopedia

Term: Love Under Will

DEFINITIONS

Love Under Will:

This the second part of the phrase that begins with "Love is the Law." "Love magickally directed, and used as a spiritual formula," says Crowley. This is an important clarification for what otherwise has commonly been interpreted as justification for a kind of "free love" movement. As a "spiritual formula" it is a concise instruction for Sex Magick as practiced by the G∴B∴G∴

"Will," of course is the True Will of the Higher Self, while Sex is the engine of energy to be directed by the True Will in fulfillment of our goal.

Carl Llewellyn Weschcke

Review of the Tarot of the Magical Forest
Summary: The Tarot of the Magical Forest is a quirky and slightly bizarre version of a Rider-Waite-Smith deck. As such, it can be used easily by anyone familiar with that tradition. For beginners who learned on a more traditional RWS deck and are ...

Synchronicity and Tarot
Most people who use a Tarot deck do so for giving readings or divinations, or for what some people would call "fortunetelling." How does the Tarot work for these purposes? I think we can pretty well ignore the "Demons control it" aspect simply ...
