[Achad, Frater (Jones, Charles Stanfield)]. XXXI Hymns To The Star Goddess Who Is Not By XIII Which Is Achad. 93 Publishing. Montreal, Quebec. [C. 1970].
A reprint of a 1923 collection of poetic hymns dedicated to the primordial feminine deity represented by the Egyptian sky goddess, Nuit, written by Charles Stanfield Jones, known by his magical name, Frater Achad. A student and disciple of Aleister Crowley (Crowley referred to Jones as his “magical son”) Achad split from mainline Thelema when he argued that the Aeon of Horus Crowley had announced in 1904 had already ended and been replaced by the Aeon of Ma’at. The publisher, 93 Publishing, was co-founded by William Breeze, occultist, editor, Neo-Gnostic bishop and musician, who edited the work of Crowley and Jack Parsons in addition to producing his own writings.
40pp + 2 ads. Red cloth boards with title and author stamped to front and spine. Image of goddess Nuit printed to front face. Top fore corners bumped. Weiser bookseller’s sticker to front pastedown. Pages toned but clean. Very good.
