s or light. as the realization of initiatory experience is known by the individual, there is no longer a sense of emptiness regarding the ownership and commitment within the heart of the witch; it is known and believed according to the predilection of the adept. the ritual workings found in the luciferian witchcraft grimoire and other collections by myself present actual workings to manifest both infernal and luciferian spirits and atavistic shades, that the sorcerer may encircle them within his or her own arcana of practice. one may make reference as to foundation by the goetic sorcery grimoire, which presents a left hand path alignment with the 72 daemons of the shemhamforasche, but rather the rituals which prepare the magician for the summoning and encircling of such spirits. an invocat

agician. in summary the witch becomes a vessel and expression of ahriman and his bride, thus the circle of lucifer is complete and the casting has brought forth cain, thus the initiate is the first of witch blood and the skir-hand gnosis of shadow and light. the very foundations of the luciferian witchcraft gnosis is found in the circle, they very place of summoning which has the scribed names of infernal deific forces, from azazel to ahriman in ancient persian cruciform, to medieval luciferic sigils which announce the embodiment of satanic power; our very heritage and spiritual lineage. this article is aimed at enlightening those who would condemn it first hand without the consideration for it s deeper meaning; but it must be known that those who walk this path are considered cursed and c

ksome dance of daemon and angel, cain and lilith. the ritual of the sabbat within the order of phosphorus is one which echoes the ancient terms and ideals which describe the rite. some seek to leave the flesh at night and fly forth in spirit to the circle, yet others find ceremonial practice more to their liking; while others practice in solitary and their imagination opens forth the gates to the infernal and celestial gathering. in ecstasies: deciphering the witches sabbat by carlo ginzburg, he describes one rite which the attributes mentioned hold resonance with not only present practice, but ancient practice as well. the devil appeared to them in the shape of a black animal sometimes a bear, sometimes a ram. after having renounced god, faith, baptism and the church and goes on to descri

GRIFFIN DAVID MAGICAL EVOCATION OF THE AVERSE FORCES

agical evocation is the difficulty to find a suitable hierarchy of 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

orresponds a divine name attributed unto each sephirothic, zodiacal, planetary, and elemental force. likewise, unto briah, the next descending world, corresponds the name of an archangel, and unto yetzirah, the name of an angel or choir of angels presiding over each of the forces. unto assiah, the lowest qabalistic world corresponds a name for the sphere of the operation of each force, and in the infernal realm beyond assiah corresponds the name of an averse force. thus we find in the tree of life an excellent model and vehicle for use in magical evocation. preparation for evocation magical evocation of the averse forces is one of the most perilous tasks an adept must undertake. within the initiatic framework of the r. r. et a. c, the initiate should not undertake work of evocation until t

magical order. this chapter includes only one ritual, however. the solitary practitioner, if he or she has performed each of the preceding rituals in this book, should have no problem in adapting the following ritual to work, in turn, with each of the averse forces, by employing the hierarchies given within each of the invocation rituals, together with the corresponding names and sigils from the infernal hierarchies listed in appendix ii "magical correspondences" these precautions are necessary to attempt to avoid the catastrophe that would doubtlessly ensue, should the casual reader skip the rest of the work and attempt to begin directly with magical evocation. it remains to clarify how to perform magical evocation in safety. the averse forces are indeed unbalanced forces whose energy is

in the ritual that follows, the magician obliges the demonic spirit of the planet saturn, zazel, to swear allegiance and obedience to the divine force of saturn, yhvh elohim, and to place its energy at the disposition of the corresponding archangel, tzaphquiel. this magical act unites the conscious and unconscious aspects of saturn or of that aspect of psyche corresponding to saturn. thus are the infernal and averse forces constrained, contained, and brought into proper relationship with the divine and angelical forces as well as with the consciousness of the magician. although the divine and angelical forces remain opposite in nature and irreconcilable with the infernal and averse forces, the adept nonetheless thereby creates a unified pair of opposites, a dynamic functional polarity of m

acks (lilith is in the qlippothic sphere, lust) and infants from being killed by lilith or her children. her earlier origins are somewhat vague though she appears to have always been related somewhat to being a goddess/spirit of the night/air whether in sumerian/assyrian/babylonian or cainanite mythology. lilith is the queen of demons and the wife of samael, from whom came the succubi. she is the infernal moon and queen of the infernal sabbat. she does have a lighter side as well, that of being a protectress to mothers and children. her nature is that of feminine fertility,seduction ,the cycles of the moon, and perhaps one of the reasons she is considered evil being her ability to seduce, to take what she wishes, and disregard those who displease her. she is feminine strength and individua

true spiritual parents who he came into communion with. he became the eternal father of and the first in the circle of witchblood. throughout history he has guided those who truly seek the flame of luciferian becoming. because he is the perfect union of both the sun and moon, he is therefore baphomet. it is the sexual-magickal union of demonic opposites that is ritually re-enacted in the rite of infernal union that we may become more fully developed as baphomet and according to our own individual wills. the union of samael and lilith is made possible according to the zohar by the presence of tanin ver or the blind serpent, leviathan, who represents by its nature the violence and chaos of the vast oceans of the unconscious, the depths of the mind touched upon in sexual union. leviathan lik

angel of light, and he called to michael, thou who wield the force of god, strike down this deadliness which would bring ruin to heaven! and michael struck lucifer and cast him from the gates of heaven, and the cosmos was shaken by great fires of war and holocaust, and throughout countless galaxies and dimensions of time was the apocalypse felt. many were the angels who perished amidst divine and infernal wrath, and the great race was decimated in number. and the very concept of god was shaken, and endless chaos rose up again to reign where the order of god was no more. and lucifer said, this horror can not be permitted to endure, lest all creation be sacrificed to the final devastation of chaos. let those who acknowledge me turn now to that outermost darkness where the will of god has nev

n this phenomenon, the witch-hunts came to represent the worst aspects of christianity an important component of a new image of the church as a corrupt, evil institution that repressed and executed innocent people. if, then, christianity was bad, perhaps the devil was not so bad or even good. in the postmedieval world, particularly in romantic literary circles, poets like william blake often used infernal imagery to represent aspects of the human being such as sensuality components of the human condition the christian tradition labeled evil. this tendency to invert traditional introduction xiii imagery was also utilized by other romantic writers.more recent literary figures like the french poet charles baudelaire made use of the same inversion. for example, in his poem the possessed, baude

to portray one s enemies as aligned with the prince of darkness. this propagandistic utilization of the diabolical is very old, as reflected in medieval protestant woodcuts portraying catholics as satanic and vice versa. more recently, in both world wars propaganda posters were produced that showed the enemy as evil or as somehow allied with the devil. political cartoonists have also relied upon infernal associations to attack opponents. then there are ads and products that rely upon hell s association with heat to promote their products, such as the names of and ads for hot sauces. the product name red devil was taken from the company s line of canned, deviled meats (deviled meat and deviled eggs are so-called because of the hot spices that are sometimes included. this association can al

s you see fit. the vampyre magickian is indeed luciferian, there is no difference in the ideological foundations. lucifer in the grimoire tradition of the middle ages is considered a spirit of the air, as his element is air just as his bride lilith, additionally he is the bringer of light as his direction is the east. lucifer as a vampyric spirit 9 is ahriman the prince of darkness. his wisdom is infernal and is hidden. all symbolism of vampyrism or vampirism as it is spelled is reflective of the spirit and astral plane. the name lucifuge means fly the light and reflects the nocturnal nature of many luciferian spirits. just as lucifer was the brightest of angels, upon his initiation and fall he was encircled in darkness. thus he has the highest articulation and knowledge, the deviation and

rocess, like luciferian witchcraft, which is never quelled or sated. the vampyre magickian will always move forward. transformation over time will change the course and mode of initiation, but the aim will be the same power and spiritual continuation. qlippothic vampyrism holds relevance to the vampyre magickian as it is a state of delving the depths of the subconscious and as some considered the infernal realms from which the subconscious mind opens to. the archdemons and qlippothic servitor demons manifest in the earth in numerous ways; however the very role in which they manifest is different than the archdemons. for instance, the archdemons rule the specific qlippothic spheres in a transcendent manner, that is, invisible to us to us but relations are made through invocation and the ass

ies of the individual which reside in the planes above and represents each person s connection to god. further, the way the total universe is divided is also up for grabs. some in the occult speak of 7 heavens, seven hells, the astral and material planes. others speak of only 4 partitions of the universe: the abyss, the heavens, the astral, and the earth. others still speak of 4 partitions: hell (infernal, heaven, the astral, and the material. the cross-sections that occultists have divided the universe differs, but there is general agreement regarding the function, and nature of the separate worlds. the concepts of heaven and hell are usually thought of as exclusively christian, but this is far from the truth. every religion and mythology out there makes reference to the heavens, the eart

location. then there is hell, sometimes called the abyss, the qliphoth, the averse, or acausal realms. similar to how the heavens are broken into 7 pieces, hell is also considered to exist as separate parts and, like the heavens, each partition has its own ruler. but unlike the material and heavens realms, the 7 hells do not obey the strict laws of space and time that we are familiar with. these infernal realms are spoke of as places where chaos reigns. in the infernal places, the spatial dimensions are not perfectly straight and do not exist as perfect 90-degree angles; here the x,y,z, and time dimensions are curved and warped. if someone were to directly gaze upon the beings that exist in the infernal realms they may be struck with an ache in the mind, because their very shape is unnatu

ts of one s sanity, and can even induce insanity. being joined with, and having conscious control of, both of your guardian spirits is often symbolized by the colors white and black in close proximity. the 2 pillars, checkerboard patterns, and similar arrangements represent the perfect spiritual being, humanity deified. the 2 trees from the garden of eden represent the celestial sephiroth and the infernal (averse) sephiroth, in the east lies the tree of life, and in the west lies the tree of knowledge. in replacement of white and black, union of the angelic and the infernal may also be symbolized by the concepts of east and west; east being the divine direction, while the west is the infernal direction. a double-headed eagle looking left and right is an example of this. it also happens tha

t and sabbath derive from the hebrew word shabbathai. further, jews and seventh-day adventists consider saturday, the day associated with saturn, to be the true day of sabbath, as opposed to most christians who worship on sunday. in truth, it is sunday, and the sun in general, which is more closely associated with jesus and goodness; whereas saturn is mostly related to satan, death, and evil. the infernal sabbat is a gathering that happens here on earth, but most who attend arrive in an astral body. this earthly sabbat, sometimes called black sabbath, usually occurs in remote and secluded places. it is sometimes the case with the earthly sabbat, that those who attend arrive in their fleshly bodies. most vampires who arrive to the sabbat, do not arrive in the flesh but instead in an astral

ching our duty to men, and the other what we owe to the gods; or rather, respect for the gods calculated to maintain that which we owe the laws, is found in that well-known verse of virgil, borrowed by him from the ceremonies of initiation "teach me to respect justice and the gods" this great lesson, which the hierophant impressed on the initiates, after they had witnessed a representation of the infernal regions, the poet places after his description of the different punishments suffered by the wicked in tartarus, and immediately after the description of that of sisyphus. pausanias, likewise, at the close of the representation of the punishments of sisyphus and the daughters of danaus, in the temple at delphi, makes this reflection; that the crime or impiety which in them had chiefly meri

r to mortals in the ceremonies 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, es

he greeks also styled the [greek ?p?pt, thrice-born; and in india perfection was assigned to the yogee who had accomplished many births. the general features of the initiations among the goths were the same as in all the mysteries. a long probation, of fasting and mortification, circular processions, representing the march of the celestial bodies, many fearful tests and trials, a descent into the infernal regions, the killing of the god _balder_ by the evil principle _lok, the placing of his body in a boat and sending it abroad upon the waters; and, in short, the eastern legend, under different names, and with some variations. the egyptian anubis appeared there, as the dog guarding the gates of death. the candidate was immured in the representation of a tomb; and when released, goes in sea

heavens, to redeem the earth from the gloom and darkness of winter, which soon became emblematical of sin, and evil, and suffering; as the spring, summer, and autumn became emblems of happiness and immortality. soon they personified the sun, and worshipped him under the name of osiris, and transmuted the legend of his descent among the winter signs, into a fable of his death, his descent into the infernal regions, and his resurrection. the moon became isis, the wife of osiris; and winter, as well as the desert or the ocean into which the sun descended, became typhon, the spirit or principle of evil, warring against and destroying osiris. from the journey of the sun through the twelve signs came the legend of the twelve labors of hercules, and the incarnations of vishnu and buddha. hence ca

middle ages, necromancers violated tombs, composing philtres and unguents with the fat and blood of corpses combined with aconite, belladonna and poisonous fungi. they boiled and skimmed these frightful compounds over fires fed with human bones and crucifixes stolen from churches; they added dust of dried toads and ash of consecrated hosts; they anointed their temples, hands, and breasts with the infernal unguent, traced diabolical pantacles, evoked the dead beneath gibbets or in deserted graveyards. their howlings were heard from afar, and belated travellers imagined that legions of phantoms rose out of the earth. the very trees, in their eyes, assumed appalling shapes; fiery orbs gleamed in the thickets; frogs in the marshes seemed to echo mysterious words of the sabbath with croaking vo

me and space are in a state of disorder. the imagery is intense and abundant for the series of events that take place within the black magician s domain of darkness, the black chapel. anyone can be present, and anything can happen within the creative darkness of the celebrant s mind. caution: during creative darkness, the practitioner of satanicon magick may unknowingly subject himself to fits of infernal madness: conjuring darkness and demons may inadvertently cause a change in the psyche; a crossing of the boundary which separates control from chaos: images and objects present visually change, becoming disturbingly disordered; so much so that they become overbearing to the conventional mind. an impulse to flee the immediate area of the disturbance is likely in an attempt to restore equil

iscomfort of this netherworld of chaos as much may be gleaned from this inner demonic realm. here, the powers of suggestion and magick are extremely powerful. an interpretation of this phenomenon: chaos is an aspect of the other dimension; the darkest realm of the human psyche; a dark and uncharted corner of the mind. heightened creative darkness is the likely scenario to realizing this conscious infernal-dream world. i further theorize that understanding the conflict in the psyche is the key to descending into this realm: consciously willing, and subjecting oneself to, chaos over reasoned thought and behavior. a final note on this cautionary statement: practitioners may also experience sleep disturbances associated with this tapped conflict in the psyche waking suddenly from sleep, though

the theory attests that the satanist s willed emotional energy may be conjured, directed upon the image of the target (which i concur with) and then sent out into the etherical atmosphere -17- traveling through time and space to its intended all the while maintaining its emotional potency and intelligence of thought. the latter part of this theory i find highly questionable and too idealistic for infernal realism and hardcore black magick. the implantation of a satanist s desire is better effected by using the more practical methods of direct contact, suggestion and magickal symbolism during the waking hours: the hours of suggestibility of the intended. ritual is simply a method by which the black magician expresses his deepest desires. though this act of sacred symbolism, the emotions inv
