Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
IN THE CONTINUUM is a Thelemic periodical, published by the College of Thelema from 1976 through 1996. It features writings by Aleister Crowley which are difficult (or even impossible) to find in print, or which are basic studies in the understanding of Thelemic principles expressed in Liber L. vel Legis.
For over twenty years it has been the leader and standard against which all other Thelemic educational periodicals have been compared. This journal includes basic instructional articles of value to all students of Thelema, and helps to clarify some of the profundities of Crowley's thought. Articles on Qabalah, tarot, magick ritual, basic astrology, the history of Thelema, and other related subjects are included which will assist the student to find his or her own True Will through self-knowledge. There is a regular section on the Qabalistic analysis of various numbers, as well as poetry by Crowley and others.
Issues appear twice yearly, at the Spring and Autumn Equinoxes.
- Volume I: 10 issues, 1973-1977
- Volume II: 12 issues, 1978-1981
- Volume III: 10 issues, 1982-1985
- Volume IV: 10 issues, 1987-1991
- Volume V: 10 issues, 1992-1996
All issues are available, and are kept in print. The superior proven value of their instructional content fills a great need among students of Thelema. Although issues can be ordered in any sequence, it is suggested that the magazine be ordered sequentially, from Vol. I, Nos. 1-10 in succession, and on into Vol. II, etc., because many of the instructions are serialized. For example:
- Crowley's Commentary on Liber LXV is serialized over five issues, from I:7 through II:1.
- A series on the Thoth Tarot trumps and psychology continues over 10 issues, from III:7 through IV:7.
- Soror Meral's biography of Crowley's disciple Jane Wolfe is serialized over 33 issues, from II:5 through V:5.
