l signs are cancer, scorpio and pisces. the four quarters of the circle every magical circle is divided into four quarters that are in ceremonial magick called the watchtowers. the higher essences who protect the quarters are invoked as the guardians, who control and direct the elemental powers. sometimes they are called kings, sometimes devas, or they may be pictured as the four main archangels, michael, gabriel, raphael and uriel. how you perceive your guardians in the ritual circle is up to you. as with all magick, there are disagreements about which archangel represents each element. this is because angels are found in a number of different traditions and religions and so may serve different functions under similar names. previously, i have associated raphael with the north and uriel w

sorting out the budget with a reluctant partner. enter the planetary and angelic hours in your diary or the appropriate section in your book of shadows. these calculations can also keep bored children amused on rainy afternoons- just tell them stories about the angels and planets first. children also adapt quickly to angelic time- after all, it's far more fun if you change sad old bedtime into st michael's hour and have a bedtime story by the light of his golden candle. to calculate the magical hours, you need to divide the time from sunrise to sunset and then the time between sunset and sunrise by 12. at the height of summer, the days are much longer than the nights, so each 'day' hour will be longer than the 'night' hours. at the spring and autumn equinoxes, when day and night are equal

cult or sinister in its philosophy or practice. satan, to the church of satan was a miltonian figure, a symbol of defiance against tyranny. it is satan who says, i would rather rule in hell than serve in heaven. this combined with the philosophy of nietzche, who says plainly, god is dead, made the philosophy of the church of satan attractive to the rebel and the outcast. the second beast in 1975, michael aquino, a magister templi in the church of satan, along with several other members, resigned from the church of satan and established the temple of set. one of the key issues in the schism was the alleged sale of titles within the church of satan. members of the church of satan who felt they had earned recognition for their knowledge of the black arts and their commitment to the organizati

wledge of the black arts and their commitment to the organization were greatly distressed to see titles being awarded to people who did nothing more than give funds to the church. the argument for the awarding of the titles was that material success is an indication of satanic might and therefore the individuals in question deserved the titles regardless of their knowledge or previous commitment. michael aquino, claiming to be in contact with satan (in the ancient egyptian form of set, wrote the book of the coming forth by night in which he declared the start of the aeon of set, a succession to the aeon of horus. the word of the aeon was xeper, an egyptian word which means to become or to come into being. the egyptian god xepera was associated with the scarab beetle and was the god of expa

y of this future satanic state. these goals fall into two broad roles which may be summarized as the role of the eol as a magical and philosophical temple and the role of the eol as a political and diplomatic organization. as a magical and philosophical temple, the eol draws heavily from the philosophy of those temples which preceded it (the tos, ona, cos, oto/aa, etc) and builds upon the work of michael aquino, aleister crowley, and others. the eol also contributes a new magic (the demonic bible) and a new philosophy (deitic philosophy) with which others may experiment. as a political and diplomatic organization, the eol places itself apart from any particular religious organization. membership in the eol does not preclude membership in the church of satan, the temple of set, the ordo tem

sizer driven industrial music. p 75 has recorded a sound which has a free style reminiscent of early industrial music, some songs filled with flowing structure and others built around ritualistic concepts. psychonaut 75 in its current manifestation as a conceptual satanic industrial band provides an interest in the depth of ideology and theory behind the surface of the songs. founder and vocalist michael ford (keteb) structured fly the light around the vision of man and woman falling into the depths of darkness (as with the legend of satan) to discover the inner fire (black flame) of self-consciousness and divinity, to then mutate and transform into something godlike. this model is loosely attributed to the averse or black tree of life known as black eden or the qlippoth. songs such as cha

of the multi-dimensional nature of the universe we need to re-consider our refraction model in the light of the alpha event. when we think back to what we have discussed about the cosmic error, we can summarise it in terms of the creation or action of a secondary spiritual source. in the gnostic interpretation of the biblical myth for example, we have the defection of lucifer and a battle between michael and satan, which results in the creation of matter. in the zoroastrian model we have ahura mazda, the lord of light, and the secondary force as ahriman. depending on the period, the zoroastrian model varies, sometimes we have spenta mainyu battling ahriman, other times we have a more warrior version of ahura mazda doing battle, however, the duality is still the same. if we decide to use th

y inclined witches surround the triangle with a double circle, and between the two circles they inscribe the names and seals of the seven planetary angels and the demon kings of the four quarters of the earth, while others seek to enhance the potency of the figure by fortifying the sides of the triangle with the hebraic divine names primeumaton, anaphaxeton, tetragrammaton and placing the name of michael, leader of the heavenly host, within; but none of these things is strictly necessary. all you basically need is the triangle prepared with intention which is accomplished, as with your other magical tools, by exorcising and consecrating your materials with fire and water (using a mercurial incense) in a properly cast circle on a wednesday. then, go to work using a charm to state your inten

slight rounded hollow in the centre to contain the show stone and prevent it from rolling off. it should be stained or painted black with an exorcised paint in which finely powdered wormwood herb is mixed. all the time you work on it, you should continue the use of the mantram that you evolved for the triangle. many witches surround this pedestal with the names of the four cabalistic archangels: michael, gabriel, raphael, uriel, or their symbolic representatives, the zodiacal signs of leo, scorpio, aquarius, and taurus. again, however, this is not strictly necessary, merely a matter of personal preference. finally, wash the show stone itself in an infusion of wormwood, place it on its stand when dry, and cense and seal them both. should you, however, wish to make a speculum, or mirror, in

the bible, christians are cautioned not to suffer a witch to live "witch" was the english translation for any- one who practiced magic, male or female, as well as those who sold poison, pro- cured abortions, and committed other crimes. the magician was classed with the dregs of humanity alongside the prostitute and the cutpurse. occasionally voices were raised in defense of magic. the rosicrucian michael maier wrote in his themis aurea in 1618 "magic (as some define it) is the highest, most absolute, and divinest knowledge of natural philosophy" however, he was not so bold as to defy the social odium in which magic was held. yet this noble science doth oftentimes degenerate, and from natural becomes diabolical, from true philosophy turns to negromancy. hence it is that mag- ick lies under

ctice. the rosicrucians understood clearly the personal and present quality of magic. they made no attempt to found churches or lodges after the masonic model. instead, they cherished their art in secret and passed it on from master to apprentice in much the same way that magical knowledge is still conveyed in india and more primitive regions. one of the six laws of the rosicrucians enumerated by michael maier in his themis aurea states that every brother shall choose a fit person for his successor. another stresses the need for secrecy. and while the rosicrucians never existed as a formal occult organization, the tenets of that mythical order reflect the beliefs and practices of a number of genuine occult circles that were formed during the renaissance, most notably those headed by cornel

TYSON DONALD THE POWER OF THE WORD

lowing through the ring of solomon issued from the shamir stone. the "living power" of the shamir indicates that it contained an angel of god, probably a very powerful and exalted angel, because the ring was used for the holiest works, such as erecting the temple and binding evil spirits. it would be idle to speculate which angel resided within the brilliant radiance of the shamir. perhaps it was michael, who is the great warrior angel. i am more inclined to think that the light of metatron, the highest of all angels, shone from the depths of the stone. the third river of power flowed from any occult symbols that may have been inscribed upon the ring at the time of its making. these drew down the rays of the planets and the fixed stars or signs, or attracted the energies of the four earthl

texts claim to possess the true description of the ring, but since each differs from all the others, it is difficult to know how much faith to place in their assertions. for example, the enochian angels conveyed the supposed true image of the ring to john dee through the seer edward kelley, who observed the ring issue from a flame that sprang out of enochian ring of solomon the sword of the angel michael (see geoffrey james, the enochian magick of dr. john dee, pp. 26-7. dee drew the ring according to kelley's direction, and the result is pictured above. it is highly significant that the bezel of dee's ring is square, since any true ring of solomon must have some close connection with the fourfold name of god. the letters on the face of the bezel may be an anagram for some word, or words
