K this is kinda off topic.. but does anyone have a copy of The Winged Beetle by AC (a collection of his poetry) they're looking to sell? I'm absolutely smitten with it but it's rather hard to come by (limited printing from @1920's I think)! Thankfully it usually goes for only about $100 which I would be more than willing to pay provided I have the funds during the window of opportunity... Thanks

"Looks like it can indeed be bought quite easily for $100.00;

"Don't know if I said this before, but you see how cheap and easy lulu.com is, right?"
I think the point being that sure have the 24ct gold embossed edition, consecrated on Mt Sinai by naked nubile virgin serfs in the moonlight. But I have no qualms buying a Paperpack edition..

I skimmed through the book and didn't find anything mentioned about the Star Ruby nor Star Sapphire, could anyone point me, maybe I overlooked? If not then why weren't they included?

They're mentioned in the syllabus section - Appendix D.

I found them there, thank you!

"No one's selling Magick Without Tears cheap? I think on Amazon it's going for like 100 dollars. Still too expensive for a book for me."
I got real lucky and just won M W T on ebay for 15$!

It's currently out of print. I'm responsible for some errata before we take it back into print. There might be a couple of copies left in our Grand Imperator's possession and I could forward him your email address if you like.
While I'm very proud of how the hard cover was manufactured, and generally recommend, I do have a (very) few copies of the Version 3 softcover. If you're just interested in the content, you might want that."93
It seems like I have been waiting for forever for this book to become available again. Is there any way that we can put our name and email address on a list so we can be notified that the book is back in print? I seriously do not want to take the chance of not getting my copy when it sells like hot cakes.
Any plans for any special editions in leather (or anything like that). I would be happy with any hard cover, so I don't want to come off as too greedy.
Seriously, if it doesn't come back in print soon my girlfriend might make me spend $700 to get a copy.
Help!
Thanks Mr. Eshelman for writing (by all the accounts I have heard) a really great book.... now if only we could get the chance to actually read it ourselves!

I have heard rumors that this book contains information about the sigil of BABALON and/or the A.'.A.'..
Can anyone tell me if this is true?
Any idea on a reprint date yet?

Thank you,
Frater Pantha"The book is basically a run-down of the duties of each grade of A.'.A.'. from S.M. to 5=6...I'm not sure what you mean by "information about the sigil of BABALON" but there is a brief discussion of the equation:
77+(7+7/7)+77 that resides in the heart of the Star of Babalon...the equation is a mathematical means of expressing 156, the number of BABALON, using seven sevens...616

Does he go into there being more than one possible "heart" of the star? I have heard rumors that the inside can differ, and some of the "other" insides are more secret and reveal other truths. Does he go into more than the equation from above?
I am not saying he should have, or that the rumor was true. I am only asking because I can't spend the $800 right now to buy a copy to find out for myself.
