war in heaven. he and his angels were defeated by michael and the angels who remained loyal to god, and were thrown down from heaven to hell. in their fallen state these angels of hell are supposed in christian lore to be of hideous aspect, filthy, deformed and base. lucifer seeks to harass god by plaguing mankind with a multitude of troubles, and by inciting human beings to defy god. he uses his fallen angels as his agents, sending them abroad across the face of the world to incite and commit evil. every time he succeeds in inducing a human to defy god, lucifer gains another soldier in his rebellious army. it is not always made clear how the demons of lucifer can appear upon the earth when they have been cast down and bound in hell. apparently, as we may gather from the book of job, lucif

commit injuries upon the person. what is true of lucifer himself applies to his agents, the demons. in a nutshell, this is the christian demon myth. demons are tempters of men because they are forbidden to injure human beings who obey god. but if through the temptation of a demon a person can be induced to disobey god, that person is demon fodder. effectively, they join lucifer's army of apostate fallen angels, although at a very subordinate rank. from a fundamentalist christian point of view, all those who fail to worship christ are disobedient to god, and therefore prey for the demons who walk and swim and fly upon the earth. much the same belief concerning those of other religions is held by fundamentalist islamics and jews. in a broader inter-religious sense, anyone of any religion who

ors did understand demons as objectively present in the world and pictured the apostles as trying to drive them away. considering demons as having an objective existence placed many questions about the nature of their origin, existence, operation, and habitation on the theological agenda. by the third century, the angel lucifer, who fell from heaven (isa. 14:12, was identified with satan, and the fallen angels with demons. the gnostics (who competed for members with the early christians, imitating plato s classification of the orders of spirits, attempted a similar arrangement with respect to a hierarchy of angels. the first and highest order was named seraphim; the second, cherubim; the third was the order of thrones; the fourth, dominions; the fifth, virtues; the sixth, powers; the seven

evil forces of the jewish tradition took definite forms, names, and roles, although they were never really fully accepted into orthodox judaism. the greek word daimon was used in the roman and hellenistic world to indicate evil forces, and thus entered early christian writings with the negative connotation of impure spirits. the judeo-christian tradition elaborated the concept of the devil as the fallen angel who tempted adam and eve and was forever banished from paradise. christian literature also drew upon the belief systems of their neighbors in the depiction of the apocalypse, wherein appear demons that recall jewish, persian, and mesopotamian myths. in the transmission of the texts of the scriptures the devil (in hellenistic greek, diabolos) came to be identified with satan (the name

MICHAEL WYNN THE SOUL TRAVELERS

n to multiply, the serpent, also called the sons of god [angels] began to lust after human women and soon began to procreate with our race. the offspring of this union, beings who were half human and half angel, would be called the nephilim. these nephilim, often referred to as giants, had super-human strength and abilities, and were known as men of renown. this early civilization, which included fallen angels, nephilim, and humans became increasingly wicked. after our wickedness reached a boiling point, god could no longer restrain his angry hand, so he--michael wynn's "the soul travelers" 4 alerts a righteous man named noah that he is soon to destroy the world in a flood, and that noah s family should begin straight-away building a large boat, so that he and his family may survive the ea

number is 7. the exterior of the statue of liberty is made of copper, the statue is green, and has 7 rays of light reaching out from her head--michael wynn's "the soul travelers" 13 then there s satan, who himself has countless names. most christians believe they have a monopoly on the stories regarding this being, but satanists know better. satanists, and occultists in general, have equated the fallen angel satan with the villain of almost every mythology. in egyptian mythology, satan is set, the egyptian god of chaos, storms, and evil. and similar to satan from the bible, who once stood beside the throne of god, set was once the guarding of the sun god ra. apparently, it was after set s battle with apep, the serpent of chaos, that he became the new villain in the egyptian tales; the fir

ree; zeus would rule heaven, poseidon would rule the sea, and hades would rule the underworld, which was the land of the dead. although the greek traditions do not mention a conflict between the two brothers zeus and hades, satanists do. i suspect that this is just another god and his evil brother story. satanists also refer to satan as azazel. azazel, according to jewish lore and the bible, is a fallen angel or demon who is described as an outcast. he, like the egyptian god set, is associated with the desert. although azazel was mentioned in the bible, his most famous appearance was in the book of enoch. the book of enoch is considered an apocryphal text, which means that it did not receive entry into the bible. the book of enoch s exclusion from the canon (bible) is truly a tragedy, and

of eden being in fact a group. the bible, albeit a bit more subtly, also makes it clear that this serpent was in fact a group, when it mentions the sons of god (which is of coarse plural. in the bible, the serpent tempts eve into eating a fruit from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, yet in the book of enoch there was no fruit, but instead it was knowledge of magic and the sciences which the fallen angels gave unto man. the relationship between the serpent, azazel, and satan himself gets a tad-bit blurry in--michael wynn's "the soul travelers" 14 the world of the occult. satanists often speak of azazel as being a mouthpiece or mask of satan. occultists frequently tell the story of satan approaching eve in the form of azazel, as if azazel were in fact a separate entity who, while tempt

an. occultists frequently tell the story of satan approaching eve in the form of azazel, as if azazel were in fact a separate entity who, while tempting eve, was possessed by satan. this follows the avatar model, where multiple gods are related to a single god and vice-versa. after giving man magical knowledge that was forbidden by god, and mating with human women, the book of enoch describes the fallen angels, their offspring, and almost the whole of humanity (except for noah and his family) being destroyed by a flood whose cause was divine. black magicians, to this day, revere azazel and the rest as heroes for bringing the flame of magic and transformation to humanity. this story of god s enemy who, against the wishes of god, gives fire to mankind is also echoed in greek mythology. black

heus theft of fire from zeus. the statue of liberty, whose likeness is based on the goddess ishtar, who was said to have fallen with azazel, also bears the torch of illumination. this flame is a direct reference to magical knowledge and self-deification through magical means. it is important not to mistake this azazel, and those who were with him, for the traveling civilizer spoke of earlier. the fallen angels of eden taught humanity much magic, and did not have the support of the most high god. our humble civilizer, on the other hand, spoke of morals and the sciences while never teaching magic, and he also had the support of the most high god. jehovah, jove, or god, is the righteous brother and ruler whose names are also many. to the jews, he was yahweh. to the christians he is jehovah. i

es a receptacle for a deliberately-created larvae. the methods behind embedding a thought into someone else s mind, and embedding it--michael wynn's "the soul travelers" 37 into an object are largely the same. the last kind of spirit is angels. angels are holy, and completely dedicated to the service of the light (god. in this, i speak of only the angels who remain loyal to god, as opposed to the fallen angels, who i clumped into the demon category as those who wander or reach out from the infernal realms. in magical rituals, angels cannot be commanded to perform jobs that are adverse to their character; any command given to an angel will be handed down to lesser spirits. of the many angels and arch-angels, 4 reign supreme: michael, gabriel, raphael, and uriel. as stated earlier, each pers

ure that does not regard any moral issues; it is the negation of morality. in the eyes of the left hand pather, what they do is not evil, because there is no evil. this does not mean, however, that those of the lhp do not believe in the existence of god; by percentage you will find more believers of god among satanists than you will find in the general public. remember, they re worshippers of the fallen angels, and their gods were expelled from heaven into the abyss of chaos by a higher god, so naturally they must believe in a higher god. satanism itself is the predatory and pragmatic nature of the vampire turned into a religion whose highest achievement is self-deification. the left hand, and the left side of the body has always been associated with darkness. in fact the word sinister com

queen elizabeth i and the original 007, along with his partner sir edward kelly referred to this being as choronzon. they claimed that out of the 30 aethyrs (30 dimensions, the domain of choronzon was to be found in the tenth aethyr, and dimension dubbed zax. they also titled him he that is fallen, and even associated him with the leader of the serpent from the garden of eden, who equates to the fallen angel azazel/semyaza from the apocryphal book of enoch. aleister crowley, who thought of himself as a reincarnation of sir edward kelly, once attended an invocation of choronzon. crowley described the being as extremely deceitful and manipulative. he found choronzon to be extremely unstable, and incapable of concentrating his thoughts. choronzon, who was said to be tortured by silence, woul

monly described as a writhing mass of demons bound in a single body. leviathan is also closely related to the primal goddess tiamat, because it said that she [leviathan] had been at war with the angel race before the fall of azazel. imagery of water is frequently related to the abyss, and so leviathan is called the serpent or dragon of the depths. i have also heard it remarked that it was another fallen angel, dagon, who bound leviathan in tartarus. satan [5.6] satan is easily the most enigmatic character in all the occult and mythology; no character out there is more shrouded in a cloak of names. i admit much remaining confusion regarding the details of this character because of the name game that magicians tend to play regarding his different aspects. the first thing you should do is fre

th the north. lucifer is said to be capable of cunning and deceptive speech, and this can be paralleled to prometheus, who has many wiles and clever in rhetoric. upon falling to earth, lucifer s physical appearance is often described as a handsome, androgynous or hermaphroditic figure with pale-white skin, silver hair, an bright-green eyes. those of the nephilim race, who were the children of the fallen angels, were also said to have pale skin, silver hair, and bright eyes. it is said that the sphinx originally bore the face of lucifer himself, before an egyptian king restored the sphinx with his own face. after assuming the form of azazel, satan used his newly-won creative energy to give birth to the nephilim race, who was half angel and half man. after stealing the creative energy from j

each other, and there was much in-fighting. upon dying a mortal death, these nephilim roamed the earth in spirit, and cause strife among mankind to this day. it is important to keep in mind that there were two separate races of giants that once ruled the earth; the first race of giants was the titans who were not of the angelic race, and the second was the nephilim, who were the offspring of the fallen angels and mortal women. many of these nephilim that were born to human women were brought forth by cesarean section, and would very often kill the mother who bore them. the fall of azazel is a parallel of the prometheus story. if you recall, prometheus defied zeus and stole fire from the gods. azazel taught man the sciences and sorcery. and of coarse you have the aforementioned pemba, who

pon the earth. prometheus stole fire, which is symbolic for the male creative principle, whereas pemba stole male seeds. it was satan, speaking through the mouth of azazel, that deceived eve in the garden of eden. after his fall from the throne of heaven, lucifer led the other angels to the black void of the universe, and declared this chaotic dimension their new home. this chaotic universe these fallen angels inhabited, a place called hell by most, was ever-changing; the things contemplated on in the minds of the angels came instantly into being. this chaotic realm became a reflection of the collective consciousness of the fallen angels, so objects would appear and disappear at random and there was no order. although members of the occult have been tight-lipped regarding the matter of ali

associated with lucifer. asmodeus is a powerful, high-ranking demon, and one of the lords of the qliphoth. he is a demon of lust whose duty it is to estrange newly weds--michael wynn's "the soul travelers" 84 it is said that king solomon once had power over asmodeus, and forced him to help build solomon s temple. asmodeus is said to be frustrated and under the dominion of arch-angel raphael. this fallen angel is called the demon of the wounding spear, and is often depicted having 3 heads and riding a dragon. one of his heads is that of a ram, one of a human, and the last of a bull. he is often called the god of the witches, the god of sorcery, the god of the circle, and sometimes called the serpent. asmodeus is responsible for many of humanity s scientific achievements, and has long taught

nies of initiation, at which the gods charge them to assist, and to distribute punishment and blessing. thus not the deity, but his ministers, or a principle and power of evil, were deemed the authors of vice and sin and suffering: and thus the genii or angels differed in character like men, some being good and some evil; some celestial gods, archangels, angels, and some infernal gods, demons and fallen angels. at the head of the latter was their chief, typhon, ahriman, or shaitan, the evil principle; who, having wrought disorder in nature, brought troubles on men by land and sea, and caused the greatest ills, is at last punished for his crimes. it was these events and incidents, says plutarch, which isis desired to represent in the ceremonial of the mysteries, established by her in memory

a science. in the projection of the celestial sphere by the astronomical priests, the zodiac and constellations, arranged in a circle, presented their halves in diametrical opposition; and the hemisphere of winter was said to be adverse, opposed, contrary, to that of summer. over the angels of the latter ruled a king (osiris or ormuzd, enlightened, intelligent, creative, and beneficent. over the fallen angels or evil genii of the former, the demons or devs of the subterranean empire of darkness and sorrow, and its stars, ruled also a chief. in egypt the scorpion first ruled, the sign next the balance, and long the chief of the winter signs; and then the polar bear or ass, called typhon, that is _deluge, on account of the rains which inundated the earth while that constellation domineered

lendars; and many things in the ancient allegories are referable to them. another and most important division of the stars was into good and bad, beneficent and malevolent. with the persians, the former, of the zodiacal constellations, were from aries to virgo, inclusive; and the latter from libra to pisces, inclusive. hence the good angels and genii, and the bad angels, devs, evil genii, devils, fallen angels, titans, and giants of the mythology. the other thirty-six constellations were equally divided, eighteen on each side, or, with those of the zodiac, twenty-four. thus the symbolic egg, that issued from the mouth of the invisible egyptian god kneph; known in the grecian mysteries as the orphic egg; from which issued the god chumong of the coresians, and the egyptian osiris, and phanes

belonging to nature, is a mystery to man. and these invisible intelligences, like the stars, are marshalled in two great divisions, under the banners of the two principles of good and evil, light and darkness; under ormuzd and ahriman, osiris and typhon. the evil principle was the motive power of brute matter; and it, personified as ahriman and typhon, had its hosts and armies of devs and genii, fallen angels and malevolent spirits, who waged continual wage with the good principle, the principle of empyreal light and splendor, osiris, ormuzd, jupiter or dionusos, with his bright hosts of amshaspands, izeds, angels, and archangels; a warfare that goes on from birth until death, in the soul of every man that lives. we have heretofore, in the 24th degree, recited the principal incidents in t

terward one of the angels or subordinate planetary genii of babylonian or persian mythology, was the patron and protector of their own nation "the prince that standeth for the children of thy people" the discords of earth were accompanied by a warfare in the sky; and no people underwent the visitation of the almighty, without a corresponding chastisement being inflicted on its tutelary angel. the fallen angels were also fallen stars; and the first allusion to a feud among the spiritual powers in early hebrew mythology, where rabab and his confederates are defeated, like the titans in a battle against the gods, seems to identify the rebellious spirits as part of the visible heavens, where the "high ones on high" are punished or chained, as a signal proof of god's power and justice. god, it

the nursery tales throughout the centuries have depicted a certain mischievous nature to the wee people, but the creatures can become downright nasty even dangerous if provoked. medieval theologians seemed to favor three possibilities to explain the origin of these beings: 1. they are a special class of demoted angels, 2. they are spirits of the dead or a special class of the dead, or 3. they are fallen angels. most of the ancient texts declare that these entities are of a middle nature, between humans and angels. although they are of a nature between spirits and humans, they can intermarry with humans and bear half-human children. one factor has been consistent in all traditions: the middle folk continually meddle in affairs of humans, sometimes to do them good, sometimes to do them ill
