As salutation It is common for Thelemites to greet each other with "93" in person as well as in the opening and closing of written correspondence. correspondence. This custom derives from Aleister Crowley's guideline that Thelemites should greet each other with the Law of Thelema of Thelema by saying "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law." Since saying the entire Law can be cumbersome, using 93 has become a kind ki nd of shorthand. In informal written correspondence, correspondence, one often finds the number singularly at the head of a letter, representing "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law" and in the form "93 93/93" at the end, which stands for "Love is the law, love under will." Crowley often used this form himself within his own letters. Aleister Crowley wrote thus on the matter: I am often asked why I begin my letters this way. No matter whether I am writing to my my lady or to my butcher, always I begin with these eleven words. Why, how else should I begin? What other greeting could be so glad? Look, brother, we are free! Rejoice with [2] me, sister, there is no law beyond Do what thou wilt !
