BEHOLDERS OF NIGHT

emerged in ancient cultures and times. the luciferic linage is traced back to the fallen angels of ancient lore, whom tasted from the shadow garden and the pleasures of both the spirit and flesh. that the watchers and fallen ones, led by azazel[1] lucifer, called later iblis, understood the immortality of the psyche is between the path of the not-seen, the shadow and darkness which cultivates the black flame itself. the witchcraft tradition was explored in essence by the practitioners of yatuk dinoih[2, or persian witchcraft of which emerged from the sorcerous shadow-god ahriman, the darkness which would create flesh. ahriman is a pitch-black representative of the hidden and the secret, from which the profane should not see. ahriman and its female counterpart, az[3, are the early fountainh

rms of the scorpion, which would destroy all of which we are to sacrifice the mind to the void of non-being. the left hand path is the strengthening of the mind, and the possibility of one becoming as a separate being, not in order with the natural universe, that he or she is uniquely different. this is the path of lucifer and lilith, those who stand within the dark wells and have illuminated the black flame of self-acknowledgement and the joys of the waking and dreaming worlds. the left hand path tests the individual, uniting the demonic with the angelic, and the balance between the two. it also frees one of the need for a spiritual father or mother, and to confirm responsibility and self-reliance by the individual themselves. that this is sometimes a lonely path is not a misstatement, bu

urate view of the path itself. the lhp is the freedom from such restrictive thoughts as good or evil, or the moral right of the day. the individual must seek to transcend both, and that the image of evil or darkness, is the opposition essence of our selves, our secret essence or holy guardian angel/evil genius of being. the black flame[6] itself is the concept of the gift of seth, of lucifer. the black flame is the awakened consciousness or psyche of the individual, whom has torn down the right hand path concept of trust and dissolution in a tyrant father who demands faith. the black flame is the immortal essence of the self, the true will as which emerged from the fountains of the wells of darkness. the black flame is the light which brings the watchers close to us, that we may drink of t

as torn down the right hand path concept of trust and dissolution in a tyrant father who demands faith. the black flame is the immortal essence of the self, the true will as which emerged from the fountains of the wells of darkness. the black flame is the light which brings the watchers close to us, that we may drink of their cups of ecstasies, the skulls and the secrets they contain therein. the black flame itself is illuminated through the work of the left hand path, through the development of ones own self-divinity, through our famulus and servitors, the guardians and angels of our temple, the arcana of self as revealed in essence. each individual is a model of lucifer, whom is the imagination, or self. that we must shadow forth the adversary to rebel against the natural order, to awake

flame itself is illuminated through the work of the left hand path, through the development of ones own self-divinity, through our famulus and servitors, the guardians and angels of our temple, the arcana of self as revealed in essence. each individual is a model of lucifer, whom is the imagination, or self. that we must shadow forth the adversary to rebel against the natural order, to awaken the black flame of self-knowledge. we are thus iblis, the children of the fire djinn whom shall taste from the skulls of the sleeping. ii) the adversary oh moon nourished haunters of dreams, who have tasted the souls blood of life, from the graves of corpse-sleep from which ye emerge, from the pools of blood beneath the fountains of red sea, that emerge from the dreaming sleep of azrail, move now thro

nd path. the adversary exists within the 8 pointed sabbat star of chaos, called often algol. the very essence of chaos is disruption and the opening of possibility, that we may destroy that which hinders ourselves and thus creating a new form of order. order exists until the self grows into stasis, thus chaos then grows into a positive self-liberation process. the opposer/adversary thus holds the black flame of being within chaos, that we are both the red and black dragon, the sun and the moon respectively. evolution itself is possible when the mind reaches back to the primal well of darkness, which holds the secrets of our origins and luciferic divinity, from then liberation is an available process of the divine gift. iii) saturn, the watchers and luciferian spirits the saturnian mysterie

n is lucifer, being light, wisdom and illumination. lucifer/iblis is the imagination thus azazel, the fallen djinn of fire. lucifer represents also rebirth, inner strength, reason and solitude. in the unity of saturn are both the star of algol[9] hidden (without the averse pentagram) and the mark of demiurge saturnus. it is through satan/iblis (fire) that one emerges in light, thus lucifer is the black flame in the darkness, the light in the darkness. it was in medieval times that saturn itself was the outermost planet, holding the secrets of self transformation, death and the darkness of the soul. the workings of saturn are focused within darkness, and the possibility therein. the self-alchemical process of moving through the sphere of saturn is relative to darkness in that the initiate m

itchcraft religion (yatuk, persian sorcerers used blood of wolves[10 (who are sacred to ahriman) to call upon darkness. ahriman was probably in this sense, one of the first vampyre forms of ancient history. while similar to other fallen angels such as azazel/iblis or lucifer, there is a strong separation of ahriman from such fire djinn. the reason for this is that ahriman is of death and shade, a black flame of essence hidden by the cloak of darkness. iblis/azazel/lucifer is an angel of light, self-liberation and illumination of knowledge (gnosis. in this however, do not dismiss the forces of darkness, they are essential to ones own individual initiation and growth. it is in the darkness that the roots give the nourishment for the tree to reach for the sun. ahriman is thus a form of the va

BLACK WITCHCRAFT

orm to go forth to the erotic convulsions of the infernal sabbat. the god of luciferian witchcraft is seth-an, or set (the same as samael, satan. this is the egyptian prince of darkness, a lord of chaos and sorcerous power. set should not be considered merely a god in an anthropomorphic sense, rather a deific force which is the very essence of our being. when azazel or lucifer brought to cain the black flame of consciousness, this was as too set s gift to mankind. by working in the circles of luciferian craft, you are merely fulfilling your ancient heritage. while some choose paths less dangerous than this; the reality of witchcraft as a luciferian gnosis cannot be denied. the great work in reference to set is for the magician to seek divinity, that is awareness, individuality and personal

om probably explains part of the reason why the scam has remained mostly hidden. it is perhaps telling that the church of satan recognized the internet s contribution to growing tension between followers with conflicting ideologies each believing theirs to be satanic because all ideologies fit the vague definition in the satanic bible, and issued several recommendations on the internet and in the black flame [47] to either stay off the internet or not debate with those people that one disagrees with. the church of satan s reconciliation today is provided on its web page [s]ince only a very small percentage of our members choose to interact with people online, it would be an error to think that your online experience is necessarily a reflection upon what your personal experience with the ch

t, certain initiatesexploded, slowing down the rate of the setian mission to export xeper to human minds. now that the temple is in a cycle of growing exponentially on every continent, the need for a tougher review of those perfect strangers who come to our doors seeking initiation becomes a necessity. the priesthood takes on a new responsibility. we must actively become guardians of the precious black flame that set has mandated us to preserve.we do so by taking a few hours of our time in meeting with new applicantsbefore their applications are approved and they are officially welcomed into the temple. this action can not only improve the quality of those who we do decide to bring into the temple, but heighten our own initiation aspriests and priestesses of set. sounds simple, right? like

the best answer when you don't. 3. cultivate a friend among the new priests with whom you can talk about absolutely any damn thing off the record. often times, someone from a different order and a different way of doing things makes the best mirror for your own actions. 4. make a job of finding that master with whom you most disagree and figure out how his philosophy is a prism through which the black flame is focused. this and the action above help tether you to the process of the temple, and broaden you in a fairly painless way. 5. when you find yourself giving really good advice, or suddenly explaining something in a way so profound that it amazes even you, write it down in your nightbook. the advice usually winds up being for you. the revelation usually becomes a key to a door of whic

being in whatever form that we desire; indeed, this is the fundamental imperative of xeper. in another sense, the setian can see a basic difference, in that the existentialists deny that the individual has any sort of prior essence. we who acknowledge the gift of set realize that our distinct senses of self-consciousness and intelligence are the essence of our being, and this essence, the setian black flame, was inculcated into human beings by an essence or being other than human. this realization is what makes satanism religious in nature rather than philosophical in a strict sense. we see that the conclusions that both philosophers have arrived at point toward the question of the individual's ethical nature and responsibilities. since there is no morality in any sort of absolute sense

THOUGHTS ON SETH

to become awake in a world of zombies, we must take responsibility for our enjoyment in such a world. 9. learn to make the gesture of support. we are not under the commands of the right hand path to love everyone. black magicians are by nature individualists. however, if we are to become aware of our own natures, we must learn to recognize the satanic in others. whenever we see the sparks of the black flame stirring in another breast, we must make a gesture of support. we can give a book, or have a talk, or best yet challenge by example. we don't proselytize or interfere in the fates of those struggling to awareness, but we've got to let them know that awareness is out there. that it is possible to be a separate intelligence. as we grow in power and knowledge we may even fan the black fla
