Hi,
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
If you don't mind me butting in:
 AA>         Magically speaking, the consequences of publicly announcing 
 AA> that your Order is an A.'.A.'. outer college are 
 AA> pretty strong. For better or worse, it puts quite 
 AA> a spin on the situation. This is one major 
 AA> difference between O.T.O. and C.O.T. & T.O.T., I 
 AA> can feel the difference pretty strongly, aside 
 AA> from all the other differences.
You quote "I can feel the difference pretty strongly" is pretty interesting.  
I'm not a C.O.T. or T.O.T. member but I'm curious what you are referring to.
Later!
Love is the law, love under will.
In Thelema,
Frater H.A.C.A.

 Do you repeat it for all the quarters, one by one? Is the kiss given in the 
direction of the quarter, or 'thrown', or...?

 That sounds rather nice, actually!  ;>

 Most def...I have a Wiccan friend who seems a bit intimidated or suspicious 
of anything she defines as 'Ceremonial Magick,' yet her Wiccan banishings are 
performed, with very minor changes, using the LBRP. She's fairly horrified by 
mention of Crowley; yet thinks Gerald Gardner walked on water <err--insert 
appropriate pagan equivalent>. Interesting how many preconceived notions 
would be blown right outa the water with a little investigation, huh?  ;>
 Thanks for the info!
 Love is the law, love under will.
