e, your father is ahriman, lord of phantoms and darkness. lilith in nox umbra by michael ford the dragon itself holds a significant role within the darker and self-liberating aspects of the sabbatic path, being specifically a evocation of latent forms from which we become. considering the dragon itself is a model or form of the adversary, the symbolism of the red and black dragon are present. the red dragon itself is shaitan or samael, the dual aspects of self-liberation and transformation. as the red dragon is a mirror or exteriorized (viewed as a form outside the self) form of the primal self, the dragon is also a form of ourselves developed and initiated into the luciferian mysteries. the dragon itself as the adversary is viewed in the initiatory context as both shaitan and lilith, the

e earth 16 luciferian will and immortality the will of the luciferian is essential in the development of the mind and body of the practitioner of vampirism. the black order of the dragon recognizes both the masculine and feminine demonic archetypes of the path of luciferian witchcraft, namely samael and lilith. in the auspices of the vampyric path, it is ahriman (the black dragon) and tiamat (the red dragon. while tiamat in this aspect is the primordial form of lilith, she appears black from the wisdom of endless time. it is that samael, lilith and leviathan are joined in primal union hence tiamat is the collected sumerian adversary. she is the mother of darkness, dragons and vampirism. vampirism is a concept which begins in the subconscious. it is a power which hungers, that which seeks t

he egyptian resurrection and vegetative god. here we now begin to get a definite sequence of ideas that proves somewhat meaningful. the simplicity of a natural state of affairs in, shall we say, the garden of eden representing the springtime of mankind, is shattered by the intrusion of the knowledge of good and evil, sexual perception. this is due to the intervention of the destroyer apophis, the red dragon, or lucifer, the lightbearer, who changed all things-by illuminating all things. thus the fall-as well as the fall of the year. this is succeeded by the advent of osiris the resurrection god who is quoted as stating "this is my body, which i destroy in order that it may be renewed."he is the symbolic prototype of the perfected solar man, who suffered through earthly experience, was glor

ntelligent liberator and saviour from pure animalism" in the evolutionary scheme, the fall occurs through a higher type of intelligence coming into close contact with nascent humanity, thus stimulating the psyche of the race- or so the magical tradition has it. the recapitulation of this process within the individual sphere of consciousness proceeds through the technique of initiation whereby the red dragon is stirred into activity through contact with the fructifying powers of the elements, invoked through the skill and power of a trained initiator. the use of the divine prerogative, brought about by the magic of every-day experience, the awakening of daath, brings disaster at first because the awakened psyche is imperfectly understood and so abused for personal ends. but that very disast
