Hi would like to hear your thoughts about magical expansion and the number 11. What does crowley talk about when he speak about it?

What do you mean by "magical expansion." I'm not familiar with that term.

You will find it in Book of Thoth in the begining of the book the thory of the tarot/the theory theory of the correspondences of the tarot".
Throa is 671 =61 x 11. Now 61 is Ain, nothing or zero and 11 is the number of the magical expansion;
Does this help?

Once I get home next week and get to my references, it just might! LOLI probably have some notes in my gematria catalogue, and want to look at the original in context. It's not a common term.
11, broadly speaking, is the distinctive number of Nuit, the general number of magick, the number of letters in Abrahadabra, the sum of the balanced parts of all grade designations except 0=0, etc. - I might have something more specific written down that I've forgotten, but the above will be a starting place. Others may jump in and carry the ball in the meantime.

"Now 61 is Ain, nothing or zero and 11 is the number of the magical expansion;"
I believe he is referring to 0=2 formula. 0 is cognate with 61, Ain, Nothing, Zero and is the undifferentiated.... 11 is another way to write 2 (or -1 + 1) and is the 0 splitting into duality for manifestation/expansion.
Liber AL vel Legis (Book of the Law) says:
"None... and two. For I am divided for love's sake, for the chance of union. This is the creation of the world, that the pain of division is as nothing, and the joy of dissolution all." AL I:28-30
None (0) divides into many (2) for love's sake, which is uniting the 2 back into 1, which is better described as 0 ("O Nuit, continuous one of Heaven, let it be ever thus; that men speak not of Thee as One but as None; and let them speak not of thee at all, since thou art continuous!" -Liber AL chap 1)
11 is also the number of Magick which is moving from 0 to 2. Mysticism (union) is moving from 2 to 0.
11 also refers to Nuit who is speaking the line of "None... and two"
11 also refers to the word ABRAHADABRA which is a glyph of union of opposites (2 into 0).
