Coincidentally, 1913 (the year of this postcard) is the year she was given a copy of Franz Hartmann’s Magic, White and Black, which set her on the path that eventually led to becoming a friend and pupil of Crowley’s.

Star Trek: The Motion Picture

Gene Roddenberry

@TalismanNOLA @firemoggle I loved Star Trek IV, because it didn’t take itself too seriously. I also loved Star Trek VI because it was the film that hewed closest to Gene Roddenberry’s original vision.

The Wisdom of the Zohar: An Anthology of Texts

Isaiah Tishby
Richard KaczynskiRichard Kaczynski

Mail call: Isaiah Tishby’s “Doctrine of Evil and the ‘Shell’ in Lurianic Kabbalah” is as foundational as Tishby’s classic and definitive* 3-volume “Wisdom of the Zohar.” Excited, after years of waiting, to finally have a copy. * Definitive until (arguably) the Pritzker Zohar. https://t.co/NsKJgWXUQq

On Pamela Colman Smith’s birthday (February 16, 1878) I wanted to see some of her non-tarot art, so I ordered Ellen Terry’s “The Russian Ballet” (1913). The book just arrived, and the two dozen-odd illustrations by Pixie are a delight. https://t.co/O0hbGK46OF
