ir eager ears. a myriad voices resounded in the vaulted cave, like thunder the names of satan and aset and hearts once hollow, leaderless, were filled with new hope at the return of most great satan as, once more, did i walk amongst them. now from that high place, where i did stand with noble aset at my side, the triumphant questers, unto the streets filled with great hosts, gathered, spoke noble baalzebub, ebon, proud, his voice magnified by the strength of his heart, his words magnified by the strength of his spirit. these words did he speak to the gathered shedim "once were our hearts made to quail, their beat unsteadied by our fear as our most noble teacher passed from our midst. in fright did we seek him willy-nilly, running hither-thither amongst the darknesses, 133 seeking him with

hy dream seemed defeated and consumed by the most black maw then came a light from the most shadowed part that drove all shadows from us and restored to us our souls with its golden radiance. i name it now, it is satanael, the commander of our hearts. speak now, most noble instructor, and relate to us that which has passed to take you from us and what now restores you to us" now was the speech of baalzebub greeted with a roar; one voice, spoken by many tongues, demanded, of me the reasons of my departure and my return. each singing shedim tongue resounded the interrogation, calling for the narration of my hermitage 134 and an explaining of the knowledge i had sought and won in my wanderings beyond the walls of noble chadel, unfailing, unfading. now, from the spire of opal and ruby, i addre

rpent to sun-lit lands. in silence did the host go forth, unheard now by high heaven, ignorant of its doom. amongst stones and bones and jewels they went without song or drum or horn, by a thousand diverse paths. i followed the upward gradient of the floor to the lands of light so many leagues above, as i went gathering to myself such strength as my sorceries required to achieve the end i sought. baalzebub and ishtar went at my side and together we rehearsed the incantations of the charm that we three were to work for even such as the ancient archons could not forge alone their original work of making. now, with quiet languor did gates of the passages swing open that once more the shedim glimpsed the moon. 138 into the night, illumined by the stars, celestial torches, watchers of ten thous

bjects. this thought itself gave me pause and then with new resolve i addressed my beloved shedim, trusting that such love must never be betrayed. these words did i speak to my disciples "my shedim, noble race, bright ones. the path that lies before us is most perilous and of necessity must be walked by the few for the many could not do so in safety. therefore i shall go forth but with ishtar and baalzebub to a place long hidden from those who would seek it. that which i speak is known to but few even the elohim know not of it 139 for its treasures are too precious for michael and his three brother-lords to trust to their treach'rous kin. yet i, as the second lord of heaven, learnt of secrets that i entrust to you, my brothers. to the south of these high-peaked hills upon the burning plain

ng with moonlight. each bearing an oak-shafted spear, upon their belts hung long swords, with decorated hilt and scabbard, a red tassel tied to the pommel, and a horn of ivory and gold, they stood their watch over the prize we sought. from the western approach we came, where the river flowed from the gardens, scented with the perfumes of exotic herbs, down to the storm-buffeted ocean of the west. baalzebub went before us like a tiger, having caught the deer's scent, going, stealthy, stalking, shadow-like amongst the shadows, dark within the darkness, silent, fatal, falling upon his prey. thus did baalzebub go forward. ebon-skinned, against the ebon night, 142 unseen, unheard, unknown death. now, like a terrible phantom, resolved from the darkness of the night the black form that was baalze

ed with strange pollens to induce visions of things to be or false fancies that never were; others yet blossomed with harlequin blooms to enchant the eye and woo the heart with such indescribable hue to distract the mind and detain beholders all in some marv'lling rapture. now by the river's waters halting, whilst naiads danced on upon their path their sweet laughter amongst the wavelets, ishtar, baalzebub and satan made ready to now bring to motion what was thought and fulfil the plan of my devising. now baalzebub intoned the sorcerous syllables 143 of his potent magic and drew across the sky a black storm-cloud, hiding from the earth the moon and stars of the sky, from heaven hiding the earth. now i made myself seated amongst the trees of some perfumed glade by the river. then stripping

rged into magnificence, greaves and plate of make unsurpassed, strong against all blows. within his hand the prince of heaven held a curved blade of smokeless flame and upon his left hand wore a shield burning with the sun's borrowed light upon its mirrored face of bronze. now, as he made his circuit of the earth, his all-seeing gaze fell upon the form of the garden's guard, broken by the hand of baalzebub, and now upon river's waters, carnadine with blood, bled to give new life and hope and oppose the failing empire whose instrument he was. now he alighted upon the garden's soil and with a motion of his hand banished from the sky the rain-clouds brought forth by some same charm, amongst the trees of wondrous fruits and the herbs and flowers of seductive scent. pushing his way amongst the

live unfading and endure. beneath the shadow of the storm-wracked night stole satan and his rebel angels into the garden and there, from his own flesh did forge a race to rival heaven's children, speaking then the word of creation, spoken long aeons before by the archon tribe. with great enchantments did the usurper weave his children's fate to oppose and to strive to conquer high heaven's walls. baalzebub and ishtar, who aided him, did fly the garden before my coming bearing from the place wounded satan, exhausted by the deed's travail, leaving amongst the trees the new-made race, the nephilim, guarded by savage forest beasts. yet it is the apostate's intention, i am sure, to return to the river-garden and his children guide unto the tree that bears the fruit of knowledge of consequences

thern valley in triumph. there, in the south, storm-clouds gathered and hid all from shedim's watch and heaven's sight. when the east grew red with the flame of dawn and the burning orb of day did ascend above the earth's shadowed morning limb our keen eyes descried in the distance of the south, coming forth from the stormy veil with awful haste, agitating both air and earth, the speeding form of baalzebub, upon black wing. now breathless did he alight upon the highest peak and dictate new instruction to the shedim hosts and we paid due heed to our vice-regent. thus did he commend to us 'shedim, children of joyous tomorrow, disciples of bright satanael, give heed to that which must now be accomplished if victory is indeed to be ours. well indeed was the enchantment worked and now satan's c

rences and definitions concerning angels and demons. the former term limited its meaning only to the obedient ministers of the will of the almighty, and the influence of evil angels is concentrated only on the devil or satan. these ideas were common to the whole eastern world, and were probably derived by the jewish people from the assyrians. the pharisees charged jesus with casting out devils by beelzebub the prince of the devils. the idea that evil spirits acted in multitudes under one person appears in mark 5:9, where, when he is asked his name, the evil spirit answers: my name is legion for we are many. in the bible two orders are mentioned in scripture, angels and archangels; but the latter only occurs twice, namely, in jude, where michael is called an archangel, and in i thessalonian

flandre (1613) by father sebastien michaelis, a dominican friar, described antichrist: conceived through the medium of a devil, he will be as malicious as a madman, with such wickedness as was never seen on earth. an inhuman martyr rather than a human one, he will treat christians as souls are treated in hell. he will have a multitude of synagogue names, and he will be able to fly when he wishes. beelzebub will be his father, lucifer his grandfather. according to michaelis, exorcised demons revealed that antichrist was alive in 1613 but had not yet attained his growth. he was baptized on the sabbath of the sorcerers, before his mother, a jewess, called la belle-fleur. he was three years old in 1613. louis gaufridi is said to have baptized him, in a field near paris. an exorcised sorceress

idence of such occurrences was confirmed in the confessions forced from accussed witches and sorcerers, who claimed that the devil had mass said at his sabbat. pierre aupetit, an apostate priest of the village of fossas, france, was burned for celebrating the mysteries of the devil s mass. instead of speaking the holy words of consecration, the frequenters of the sabbat were alleged to have said: beelzebub, beelzebub, beelzebub. the devil in the shape of a butterfly flew around those who were celebrating the mass, who then ate a black host, which they were obliged to chew before swallowing. it is possible that the concept of the black mass derived from underground traditions of cathar heretics, who were put down by orthodox christianity during the fourteenth century. the cathars believed i

ze a system that depended upon firsthand experience. gurdjieff himself was an enigmatic figure, whose lifestyle often appeared at variance with that of a mystic master. he enjoyed good food and wine and was capable of apparently inconsistent behavior, usually explained away by his disciples as being designed deliberately to shock individuals out of habitual reactions. his book all and everything: beelzebub s tales to his grandson (1950) can be variously interpreted as turgid writing or a tongue-in-cheek attack on the reader s level of consciousness. time magazine once aptly described gurdjieff as a remarkable blend of p. t. barnum, rasputin, freud, groucho marx, and everybody s grandfather. guppy-volckman, agnes encyclopedia of occultism& parapsychology. 5th ed. 676 sources: bennett, john

his days were given over to the enjoyment of every conceivable pleasure. soon, however, he felt that his end was near, and calling some of his vassals around him he told them of the awful fate awaiting him after death. they were thunderstruck, but soon after soulis was gone it occurred to them that, if they could destroy his mortal remains completely, they might save his soul from the clutches of beelzebub. so having sheathed the corpse in lead they flung it into a furnace, and (so the story goes) manifestly this cremation saved his lordship from the nether regions, for had he gone there his soul could not have been active still at hermitage. the ghost story associated with glamis castle, the family seat of the earl of strathmore, is quite different from the rank and file of supernatural t

er. infernal court johan weyer (1515.88) and other demonologists knowledgeable in the lore of the infernal regions claimed to have discovered there princes and high dignitaries, ministers, ambassadors, and officers of state, whose names and occupations are listed as precisely as in any earthly census. satan is no longer the sovereign of hades but is leader of the opposition, the true leader being beelzebub. according to weyer, the demons number 7,405,926, commanded by 72 princes. the anonymous author of le cabinet du roy de france (1581) amends these figures to 7,409,127 demons and 79 princes. although demons are specifically named in many inspired catalogs and invoked by sorcerers from their grimoires, there is no real agreement on names and numbers, and in all these fantastic works it is

averse forces. the hierarchies in most of the grimoires are hopelessly corrupt, largely due to the practice of young religions to demonize gods and angels from the pantheons of pre-existing and contemporaneous spiritual traditions. for example, baal and astarte, the great god and goddess of the caananites, appear diabolized in the infernal hierarchy of the goetia, in the lemegeton, as the demons beelzebub and asteroth. other grimoires even include isis, the sublime mother goddess of egypt, as one of the denizens of hell. fortunately, however, the hierarchies of forces attributed to the qabalistic tree of life by the hermetic order of the golden dawn provide a perfect vehicle for magical evocation. these hierarchies descend through all four of the qabalistic worlds and onward into the real

ers have different names in different places. when all the talk was of the devil, the leader would dress as satan; when it was of others, as of woden, of king arthur in somerset, of sir walter calverley in yorkshire and of wild edric in shropshire, doubtless the leader would also dress the part required. as i write i am asked 'why won't the witches let you tell the gods' names? are they satan and beelzebub' so let me assure you they are not any devils' names. concealing the gods' names is an ancient practice. among the egyptian gods, the real names of amon and of other gods whose names are sacred are unknown. referring to the god we call osiris, herodotus, who was initiated, says speaking of the exposure of the sacred cow 'at the season when the egyptians beat themselves in honour of one o
