BEHOLDERS OF NIGHT

very connection a clue to what the potential of the individual can be. luciferian witchcraft is the very result of sorcery which 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 t

k 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 through the manes of the dead, they seek the co

of the adversary, which seeks to break free from the accepted order, an often unfertile result of the dayside world of the humanistic fellowship, which in time, leads to a stasis of being. it is in the solitude of the shadow can then the essence be revealed, to present the endless possibility of becoming. the adversary is called and known by many names and titles. among them are such as shaitan, iblis, satan, lucifer and set. such god forms are masks of the prince of darkness who within ourselves offers freedom and divinity for those willing to strive for it. the adversary itself is the gateway from which we discover our own will, or direction of endless possibility of desire. this is the very conscious gift of the artist austin osman spare, whom of witch blood, gave us the gift of self l

may also be related to kali, the goddess who devours and brings life. the vampyre in this aspect is one who feeds of the blood- lifeforce or the nectar of the mind, the imagination, thus revealing the vampyre as a solitary being who holds no need in the actual draining of blood. the blood itself is symbolic, as an invocation to the dark well of the fallen angels, the subconscious or imagination (iblis, shaitan. az is connected with the word, azhi, meaning a serpent. the chaos of the divine feminine or lunar essence is explored through a godform relation to this goddess, thus the magician invokes az to understand the feminine within. it is the serpent and dragon which are the immortal avatars of the well of the imagination, the blood pool of immortality and the endless existence of the psy

herness which is considered evil or dark, but yet few but the daring refuse to explore this area of magical study. satan has origins in the middle east as a djinn which is made of fire instead of light, from which the angels after were made from. shaitan was originally called azazel or azazyl, the first angel which preached to the other angels under the throne of god. azazel, who later was called iblis or shaitan, refused to bow before man, noting that his nature of lowly compared to his essence, which was of fire. azazel was cast out from heaven into the earth, along with the fallen angels (the conception of) god-head must ever evolve it s own inertia for transmutation to its very opposite because it contains it..the idea of god ever means the forgetfulness of supremacy and godliness. so

e natural or mundane world. one may seek to ask how this works, and why would you want to do it? luciferians do not consider satan to be a completely malefic spirit, rather a balanced force of both dark and light. many luciferian rites involve the symbolism of black21, red22 white23 and green24 as being different points of the adversary. it must be understood that working with the deific power of iblis or shaitan is not a safe route. it matters not if you are looking at the aforementioned force as an actual spirit or as a symbol of the dark recesses of the mind. what must be carefully adhered to is that which is unseen, that when the imagination can adapt consciousness (through the subconscious) with the image of satan then the transformation begins. once the initiate has embraced the path

sness (through the subconscious) with the image of satan then the transformation begins. once the initiate has embraced the path, there is no turning back. one may fall from the path; such is a kiss of death to the individual in question based on their own potential and failure. the left hand path as it is called can render a person mad if they are not able to control their own desires and goals, iblis tests just as he was tested. 21 black is from the root fhm meaning hidden or secret, but also wisdom. the word abufihamat, or head/father of wisdom is the foundation of baphomet. 22 representing fire and continual motion, change and sexual vigor. 23 white is symbolic of the astral plane or luciferian/celestial sabbat, wherein the spirit is elevated with his or her holy guardian angel or true

ent the fire of azazel, the light from his crown. 21 satanic or luciferian magick is a dual or opposing system of self-realization. the first area is that of inverse magical practice, working with repulsive and shunned imagery which takes the initiate into their own self-invoked darkness. by exploring this world as a subjective state, the individual slowly transforms his or herself into a form of iblis, thus becoming like lucifer. the shadow is the testing force from which you may create and manifest what you desire, and be careful as so you shall obtain that which you seek. the shadow is also the empowering essence of your mind, it is the darkest recesses and atavistic desires which may be explored and mastered. azazel (azazil) is known within muslim lore to have been the same as the ange

light which he saw. 10. desirous of destroying, and because of his malicious nature, he rushed in to destroy that light of ohrmazd unassailed by fiends, and he saw its bravery and glory were greater than his own; so he fled back to the gloomy darkness, and formed many demons and fiends; and the creatures of the destroyer arose for violence. chapter one, bundahishn here we see a different view of iblis from the thoughts of his adversary, who would be the zoroastrians. while the zurvanites regarded ahriman to be an original dual aspect of ohrmazd, in the bundahishn ahriman is represented as a lesser demon, but a very significant one that equally causes problems but strengthens those who are connected with him. while they sought to condemn ahriman and speak of his weakness, he was important

from lebanon. the shaykh traveled to baghdad and studied along other well known sufis. later on after 1100 a.d. adi traveled to lalish (iraq) and founded a religion based on melek tauus, or malek ta us, the peacock angel. the yezidis as they were called were the descendants of adi, and were considered heretics and disbelievers by other fundamentalists in their area. the deity of worship, known as iblis of hallaj is the peacock angel, known as azazyl or shaitan, the adversary. in the black book, a doctrine considered written by shaykh adi, describes the foundation of azazel as the black light or hidden way of the path against all others- in the beginning god created the white pearl out of his most precious essence; and he created a bird named anfar. and he placed the pearl upon its back, an

nday, he created an angel named 'azazil, which is ta'us melek("the peacock angel, the chief of all. the black book it is presented here that ta us melek is the foundation of independent energy, motion and progression. in no mentioning of the black book is satan considered to be a negative force, rather a misunderstood power which can reside in each human being who can recognize what azazel is. 25 iblis, the the black light satanism in islam, published in gnosis magazine 23 then the lord descended to the holy land and commanded gabriel to take earth from the four corners of the world: earth, air, fire and water. he made it man, and endowed it with a soul by his power. then he commanded gabriel to place adam in paradise, where he might eat of the fruit of every green herb, only of wheat shou

me and helped him, and made an outlet for it, and he was relieved. the black book this section provides a powerful symbolism which stretches beyond the predicament of constipation. while god created mankind, he only held limited facilities. melek ta us came unto adam and suggested that he eat of the sacred fruit. this wisdom as he offered would open adam s eyes to his own black light, the gift of iblis. it was azazel who by offering knowledge to adam and eve was by all accounts the opposer, the adversary who by aversion and a different point of view opened the mind and soul to the black flame of shaitan, that which is self-knowledge and perception. then he was wroth with the pearl which he had created, wherefore he cast it away: and from the crash of it were produced the mountains, and fro

sand-hills, and from its smoke the heavens. then god ascended into heaven, and condensed the heavens, and fixed them without supports, and enclosed the earth. then he took the pen in his hands, and began to write down the names of all his creatures. from his essence and light he created six gods, whose creation was as one lighteth a lamp from another lamp. the black book while the foundations of iblis differ from culture to culture, there is a specific correlation of the essence of azazel, being fire. while melek ta us is the chief angel over all he is considered to be created of a higher intellect than the other angels. that by the essence of flame, of which motion is always present, the peacock angel does not remain the same. it is by this principle that he changes through us as we beco

considered to be created of a higher intellect than the other angels. that by the essence of flame, of which motion is always present, the peacock angel does not remain the same. it is by this principle that he changes through us as we become something else. the key to this is the imagination itself. peter lamborn wilson made reference to a text by aziz ad-din nasafi26 which referred to satan or iblis as the imagination. it is because of the imagination that he refused to be prostrate before mankind, as fire was superior to clay. while it is first considered a sin of pride, satan acknowledged his true nature as flame and could not bring himself to bow before a secondary creation for it was his father who created him, which no other he may submit to. it is within the kitab el-jelwa that ta

ne could choose to add initiatory value to the statement. that melek ta us existed before other creatures indicates the intellect and knowledge of being, self-awareness and the imagination to consider his own role. the mentioning of not permitting strangers in looking upon the book provides a central idea as to the nature of the path itself it is separate, antinomian and isolate. that the path of iblis is one of inversion from the natural order of the objective world around us, it actually is a step away from the concepts of blending in with the spiritual normality of the herd. it is also to be noted that the opposer or adversary is the imagination of the illuminated, melek ta us and his chosen are but those who recognize the black light within. that by affirming this path, of antinomianis

the inner guide, holy guardian angel or daemon/genius which is attainable through magick. that the imagination holds keys to self-creation so does it hold the key to conversation of the holy guardian angel, the luciferian spirit which guides and which is considered our true self. it can be called a true self or higher self as this is the daemonic aspect of the mind, the gift of the black light as iblis gave humanity is inherent in our higher self, thus the imagination is a helper and beneficial ability that humanity must choose to master. all actions and deeds are manifested from an idea which emerges from the imagination inspiration guides and brings that which we desire spiritually and physically. as shaitan states that he is presently at hand and trust in me and call upon me in time of

her fallen angels. and the beast which i saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority revelation 13:2 leviathan is the lord of the will, the daemon which awakens and crystallizes the essence of self; that in the center is the inextinguishable black flame, the gift of iblis. in luciferian terms, the maker of the possibility of union between samael and lilith, the creation of cain as the self transformed. change may be invoked and willed by the mind depending on the path of the magician. if he/she is upon one path, their focus may invoke positive change, through an optimistic outlook and creating or impelling a beneficial progression in their own environment. in

within the practice of magick? is the adversary valid within modern times from the early foundations? with reference to the practice of magick, the opposer is the core column which supports all others; it is needed and those who are able to look past the sterile gods and goddess of mere sunlight may then grasp the dual ecstasy of the adversary, of both the sun and the moon. magick is the gift of iblis, and must be respected as such unless the soul becomes devoured by its own weakness. with reference to the second question concerning modern times the adversary is more so alive now as ever. this force exists through those who affirm satan 40 and those who ignore this force. it is very much a part of us and a model for that which we may become. choose your models well, for you may become jus

revolt against god.he is, of course, defeated, and he and his followers are ejected from heaven. in islam, the story is somewhat different. in the muslim tradition there are three orders of creatures: angels, who are made from light; jinn, who are made from fire; and human beings, who are made from clay. the angels were created first. when god created adam, he commanded the angels to worship him. iblis (often spelled eblis) refused on the ground that adam, who, after all, was a mere creature of dust and dirt, was inferior to the angels. as punishment for his disobedience, iblis was transformed from an angel into a jinn. then iblis and other angels who shared his viewpoint were removed from their stations, and exiled from heaven. they subsequently became demons, with iblis playing the role

ewpoint were removed from their stations, and exiled from heaven. they subsequently became demons, with iblis playing the role of the islamic satan. ejected from the presence of god, these former angels turned to trickery and causing trouble for mortals.according to the koran, iblis s first misdeed was to lead adam and eve astray in the garden of eden. the koran also notes that at the end of time iblis and his hosts will be tossed into hell. muslim tradition also mentions specific dark angels, such as malik, who guards hell. the koran asserts that malik is aided by nineteen other angel guards (sbires or zabayniya).when the sinful residents of hell beg malik for help, he tells them that they must stay in hell forever because they denied the truth when it was once showed to them: and they sh

truth (arberry 1969, 205. malik makes life even worse for them by stoking the fires and making jokes. the only relief comes for the muslim sinners in hell who can escape such treatment by reciting allah, the compassionate, the merciful. malik knows that these true believers will one day be freed from hell by muhammad. in an interesting variation on tradition, sufis (islamic mystics) reinterpreted iblis s disobedience as an act of love for god, and as an act of obedience to the law that only god should be worshiped. to bow down to adam, in other words, would have been an acknowledgment of another god other than god, and thus an act of idolatry a severe sin in the muslim tradition. iblis, to continue this line of interpretation, was a true lover of god, and thus a sufi. iblis knew that the c

s for this doctrine is the hadith, he shall make men come out of hell after they have been burned and reduced to cinders. in addition to this purgatory of suffering, there is another muslim limbo al-a raf, the heights or ramparts, described in a chapter of the koran by that name in which those souls reside who do not merit damnation, yet who are unable to enter paradise. see also harut and marut; iblis; jinn for further reading: arberry, a. j. the koran interpreted. 1955. reprint, new york:macmillan, 1969. the encyclopaedia of islam. leiden: e. j. brill, 1978. glass, cyril. the concise encyclopedia of islam. san francisco: harper san francisco, 1989. obayashi, hiroshi, ed. death and afterlife: perspectives ofworld religions.westport, ct: greenwood press, 1992. jacob one of the more bizarre
