Forget the rigid “instructions” of dull and lifeless ceremonial magick, I laugh in the face of those timid so-called magicians who cling to banishing rituals and protective circles! Luciferians only recognize circles as either symbolic or literal tools to focus and encircle power and the spirit-host. In the Circle of Evocation, the energy summoned and manifest is to be invoked and consumed as a part of yourself. Luciferians are spiritual rebels in the basic rational sense of calculated thought.
This spoken chant is a solemn oath from the 16th century, and has been traditionally used by many witches. To embrace and wear the serpent-skin as a cloak and the Deific Mask of the Devil is to enter the depths of the chthonic darkness and drink from the Chalice of the Adversary. The venom and blood of the dark moon is the symbolic elixir which mixes and awakens the Cainite strain of Witch Blood within the seeker.
The cross is trampled, the black cloak or robe is worn and the Black Book is consecrated. The following dedicated is adapted with the form of the original, with a confirmation of the context of self-directed empowerment. You will also need your Athame and two items (clothing, jewelry or similar): one item you will bury or place beneath the altar, a “gift” to the Devil as a symbolic gesture of dedication, another item of magickial significance be it a new charm, tool, piece of ceremonial clothing or jewelry: this is the “gift” from the Devil to you as the new initiate.
The Trampling of the Cross, Guazzo 1626 [Enter chamber or location of ritual, if indoors light candles upon Altar, place filled Chalice and light black and red candles. Burn incense and robe yourself, taking the Athame and pointing towards the altar.]
OATH OF THE DEVIL
'I deny the slave-god and all Religion. I curse, blaspheme, and provoke the slave-god with all disdain. I give my faith to the Devil, and my worship and offer sacrifice to him. I am awakened with the Pact of Witch Blood and the Black Flame.
I do solemnly vow and promise all my progeny unto the Devil. I swear to the Devil to bring as many into his society as I can. Those who may ignite the Black Flame.
The Devil is my Force, Power and Self in Carnal and Spiritual excellence. I will always swear in the name of the Devil.' [Placing one hand atop the head, and one beneath the sole of a foot, state allowed that the spirits may hear you:]
'I dedicate all that lies between these two hands to the Devil, The Devil is the Mask of Power within my Circle. I honor in secret and to the service of the Black Circle of Azazel, taking the witch-name of (N.)'. [The Neophyte now recites the affirmation and act of blasphemy by
trampling on the cross] In the Devil’s Name, I trample this symbol of oppression, tyranny, death and restriction! I deny the religion of sheep and the executed criminal stretched upon a stick! I now take charge
of my path and that which I determine, the Devil’s Mask is given power from within. I am the Son/Daughter of the Watchers, born of the union between the Heavens and Earth. I become as Nephilim in mortal flesh and immortal spirit.
In this Pact of Witchblood, in the presence of Samael and Lilith I take the Witch-name of [chosen magickial name], I shall honor the shadowhood which is the witch cult by three ways under the light of Hecate: To Know, To Will, To Keep Silent!
[The Satanic Baptism is anointing the sign of the Crossroads (X) upon the brow, either by the Magister or the Neophyte] If I fail and find that the Adversarial Spirit does not dwell within me, I shall quietly leave and be damned by another way. If I proclaim disdain for the Luciferian Tradition and my Coven, be it known there is a curse upon me which is not easily lifted! I shall be haunted and tormented by the demons and wraiths which join us as equals and teachers within our circle! To Know, To Will, To Keep Silent!
[Mark an invisible circle now around you, symbolizing the circumference of Self as the marking point of the Devil’s altar. In Luciferian Witchcraft, the Witch his or herself is the center of the Crossroads, the very place of power. Luciferianism depends upon you and is either diminished or made great by the Witch or Warlock.]
Within this Circle I exist: I am altar, temple and living union of the Heavens and Earth. Before me, the symbol of the Devil, Lord of Heaven and Earth, Lord of Air, Fire and Water.
Let your spirit and powers rise through me in the temple of mind, flesh and spirit! [A small item or personal importance is now to be buried near an oak outdoors, perhaps where the ceremony is performed. If in your Ritual Chamber, it should be placed underneath or behind the altar where none may find it. You may take the item outdoors after the rite to then bury in a suitable location]
This item is freely given to Satan, the Deific Mask of Infernal Power upon Earth! This item I now receive is a Gift from the Devil whose spirit will awaken my Daemon and guide me forth!
Hail the Horned God of Woods and Desert Mountains! Hail the Goddess whose is the Triad and matron of all Cunning Folk!
Hail Azazel-Baphomet-Samael! Hail Hecate-Lilith-Diana!
[Write now your Witch-name in your Book of Shadows] Let my Name be struck from the Book of Sheep and inscribed in the Black Book of Death! This Book of Shadows shall be center of stability upon this journey of power, my inspirations, spells and powers shall be written here. My legacy as an Adept shall be recorded here. This book shall be a point of crossroads between my Daemon and my desires in this world.
I go forth as Cain, First of our Witchblood Circle. May I create, destroy and seek the path upon the Serpent’s jagged spine towards Pleasure, Wisdom, Strength, Power and Balance!
So it is done! [Recite now the Lord’s Prayer Inverted and end ritual]
THE LORD’S PRAYER REVERSED Summoning the Spirit of Cain
This traditional witchcraft inversion of the Lord’s Prayer invokes the Spirit of Cain and is for an initiate, simplistic and potent for beginning the journey upon the Adversarial Path. Recite within a ritual chamber, graveyard or anywhere in which the inspiration of the Antinomian Fire guides you. Self-Liberation from restrictive belief is a process of continual boundary-crossing and trespassing dogmatic religious beliefs.
In the Devil’s Name, Cain I summon thee! NEMA! LIVEE, MORF SU REVILLED TUB NOISHAYTPMET OOTNI TON SUH DEEL SUS TSHAIGA SAPSERT TAHT YETH. VIGRAWF EU ZA SESAPSERT RUA SUH VIGRAWF DERB ILAID RUA YED SITH SUH VIG NEVEH NI SI ZA THRE NI NUD EEB LIW EYTH MUCK MODNGIK EYTH MAIN EYTH EEB DWOHLAH NEVAH NI TRA CHIOO. RETHARF RUA!
In the Devil’s Name, so those words empower me! No lord, no master: I become the Devil in Flesh!
Into the Black Mirror
The ‘Obscene Kiss’ traditionally is described as neophytes bending and giving the ‘Infernal Kiss’ to the Devil. There are several traditions with alternate acts and one is not submitting by bending knee but gazing deeply into the Black Mirror, kissing the center and embracing the Spirit of Lilith and Samael as the forbidden and self-determined act of liberating the initiate towards continual rectification. This process can be difficult and seemingly filled with ‘temptations’ (which weaken the will when indulgence becomes destructive).
The Adversary motivates by challenging and in turn ‘forges’ the Witch and Warlock in the Black Flame of Luciferian Apotheosis. As one half of the Adversary, Lilith is the Bride of Samael (the medieval Devil) and is significant in the magickial initiation of our Black Alchemy. Lilith is but one Deific Mask of types of power and knowledge the Goddess represents.
A Black Mirror, any acrylic, metal or glass material will suffice if it is a dark reflection. The back of the mirror if you choose may have a painted spelling of Lilith in English or Hebrew. Additionally, any Deific Mask you are connected to if appropriate may be written also. Above the Black Mirror, an altar banner or image of Lilith should be placed. The altar should have a statue or idol of Lilith in a prominent place during this ritual.
Two candles: one black and the other red should be burning with incense. All light in the chamber should be out except for the candles. Adjust accordingly and this must be performed during the hours of night and if possible either at Midnight or Three A.M.
Scryin
g the Realm of Lilith
Scrying is one of the many ancient arts of divination. The seeker will focus upon an object with a reflective surface (of any type) until visions appear. The very word “scrying” is derived from an English word, ‘descry’, meaning ‘to make out’ and ‘to reveal’. The Black Mirror is a tool associated with both necromancy and the gateway to the nocturnal spirits of Lilith.
The sorcerous potency of the scrying mirror is derived from your focus of Will, Desire, Belief. Once you obtain a mirror, consecrate the mirror with a basic spell prior to using it. You may begin with the Dark Moon and then consecrate it finally on the Full Moon, using it then. Obtain an adjustable base to place upon your altar or hold it from an angle, if you seek visions. For Daemon rituals, staring into the Black Mirror directly has benefit with seeking communion with your True Will and the manifestation of your Daemonic Guide.
With consistent practice, imagined visions will appear and you might see a wide variety of types, including spirits. Some may look directly at you, spiritually “touch” you and have other interactions. In some Vampyric teachings of the Black Order of the Dragon, Black Mirrors are used for seeking gateways to other Vampyre Spirits and to act as a gateway of sacred communion. As with astrological movements and times, visions may be varied.
Black Mirror Incantation
Facing the Mirror, recite this Incantation: KLEPTUZA, ABNUKTA, AMORPHO, SATRINA, STRINA, IKPODO, AYYLO, ABYZOU, ABITO, KALI, LAMASTU, ARDAT LILI, LILITU, LILU, LILITH! Demons and Night Spirits, Wind Specters and Great Storms who ride the aethyr, Lilith I do invoke you and your powers to come forth and open this Gateway of the Mirror to your infernal kingdom! In the Name of Lilith, I invoke the Spirits: Balberith, Zelands, Zelles, Dimedero, Carar and all phantoms to join with my living flesh in this world! May I go forth to the Sabbat and seek the desires I lust for to be fulfilled! Answer the questions and grant me the knowledge I seek! So it shall be done!
[Focus and visualize with each word the essence of what you are reciting.]
THE DJINN OF THE BLACK FLAME Ecstasies of Chanting and Invocation to Ignite the Spirit
SHAITAN
The Arabic Shaitan (Shaytan), ﻥﺎﻄﻴﺷ, (the plural of Shaitan isﻦﻴﻁﺎﻴﺷ, shayatin) is the Devil or Mask of the Adversary in
Islam. The class of which Iblis belongs to in Islamic lore is called Jinn (or Djinn), The Devil is known as Iblis, ﺲﻴِﻠْﺑِﺇ which is derived from the Ancient Greek ‘Diabolos’, ‘διάβολος’
which became the source of the word ‘Devil’ in English. Iblis is considered by Luciferians to be a manifestation or ‘Deific Mask’ of Arabic design to represent the opposing or adversarial force in the Cosmos; the Adversary is the motivator and challenger to walk widdershins or counter clock-wise against life. From this the strong shall rule the weak while the clever rule the strong; life evolves and adapts or perishes and the cycle of predator and prey. Islam calls Iblis ʿAduww Allāh (the enemy of God) and alʿAduww (the Enemy).
The Quran tells the story of that Allah had created Adam and commanded the Angels to bow before his creation. The only one to refuse was Iblis, who responded, ‘"I am better than he: Thou didst create me from fire, and him from clay.’. Allah was angered by the defiance of this Jinn who alone, refused to bow in submission. Iblis was cast to Jahannam, ‘Hell’ but upon request from Shaitan, was allowed respite until Allah’s “Day of Judgement”, a common theme in all monotheistic religions.
MELEK TAUS THE PEACOCK ANGEL
In the lore of the Yazidi, the creating Demiurge who created this world from the sacred egg, placed Seven Angels, Archons to govern this world. The Heft Sirr (The Seven Mysteries) of which Melek Taus (Melek or Malik translating ‘King’ and ‘Angel’, Taus meaning ‘Peacock’) was prominent among them. The Demiurge who created the realm of matter, gave the mastery and authority of this world to Melek Taus, commanding: ‘You are the ruler and Lord on the Earth'. In common lore, Melek Taus came into being from the Illumination, the Ronahi of the Demiurge and the other Six were created later.
The first humans were created from dust and earth, of which the Demiurge commanded the Angels to bow before his new creation. Melek Taus refused to submit or bow before another, replying that ‘How can I submit to another being! I am from your Illumination and Adam is from dust!’.
The first test of the Adversary, revealed as Shaitan, Iblis the Black Light, was passed and his power of spirit and authority grew. The test was imposed in a stern command from which the surroundings of Melek Taus all submitted to the seemingly commanding Demiurge. Shaitan was aware that his Divine Fire was a responsibility and a gift, that to submit would be to reduce or extinguish this Black Fire. This illuminates the Black Light of Melek Taus and casts a shadow on those below, it is also a symbol of the Divine and Noble Character, called ‘Zanista Ciwaniyê’, ‘Knowledge of the Sublime’.
In Yazidi (commonly spelt Yezidi) lore, Melek Taus was created on the first Wednesday of the month of Nisan or April. At this date is the Yazidi New Year, a celebration in which Melek Taus is the representative of the Demiurge on earth.
Sufi mystic, Ayn al-Qozat Hamadani, who was executed for his theories in 1131 CE referred to an early Left-Hand Path concept that individuals who have a special affinity or attraction to Iblis were essentially “the separated ones”23. Ayn al-Qozat suggests that separation-in-love is perhaps superior to union-in-love as the former is a dynamic, energy driven condition and the latter a static one. Iblis is the symbol of the state of “the separated ones”, the Black Flame of independent consciousness.
In Luciferian spirituality, inspired by Ayn al-Qozat’s teaching concerning Shaitan, Iblis is the guardian or chamberlain of the inner sanctum of the Divine. Iblis is the first and brightest bearer of the Black Light. For the Luciferian, the inner sanctum of the Divine is not the Islamic Allah, rather it is the Daemon of the Black Adept. Iblis is the imagination, the Guardian who inspires, tests, challenges and opens the way to the True Will or Daemonic Divine inherent in each Adept.
Peter Lamborn Wilson wrote of the SHAITANPARASTIYYAN or “Satan-Worshippers” of the Yezidis, a Kurdish tribal people who live in Northern Iraq. Luciferians do not assimilate their traditional religion to our practices, Shaitan the Peacock Angel is a Deific Mask of the patron spirit of imagination and inspiration.
23 Lords of the Left-Hand Path, Flowers, Islam and the Left-Hand Path Iblis, or Azazel is the Angel or Djinn of Fire in Islam who refused to prostrate before Adam as he felt fire was superior to clay. Azazel is not light, but fire – greater than all other angels.
Sheikh Adi of the Yezidi was one such Adept who no doubt discovered his Guide as Tauus Malek, or the “Peacock Angel”. The following Eulogy, not common in publication with the Al Jilwah and the Meshaf Resh presents the Peacock Angel or Malak Tauus (also spelled Malak Taoos or Peacock King) in a shining, beautiful aspect. While there are obvious cultural differences, this is a fine example of the Adversary as the Lord of the World and an Angel of Blackened Fire.
In Yezidi lore ‘Azazil is Ta’us Malak, (Malek Ta’us), the Peacock Angel. Malek Ta’us in Yezidi doctrines was created on Sunday and is the chief over all Yazads or Angels. The Peacock Angel rules over all creatures and brings structure and order to this world. In one Islamic text, Aziz ad-Din Nasafi wrote in “The Perfect Man” that when Allah created Adam (man), the angels prostrated to him, except for the Imagination, namely Iblis.
From the third heaven: Adam, Eve, Satan, Iblis, the Peacock and the Snake. Satan was nature, Iblis was imagination, the Peacock was lust and the Snake being wrath. As Luciferians walk upon their own path of initiation, spirituality is slowly shaped by the imagination with Will, Desire and Belief.
THE DJINN AND MALIKU’L-QUWAT, LORD OF POWER
In the Luciferian Tradition of Hamar’at (Charles Pace), a ritual of great intent and power was performed known by some as “The Fire Rite of the Peacock Angel”. The Djinn may be invoked by the Black Adept to stir the imagination and gather
inspiration. Luciferians benefit from our age of nearly instant information and the histories and mythology of all cultures. As the symbols reveal their knowledge, the Luciferian should utilize and bravely command and encircle the powers which are accessed via the Deific Masks as we understand them.
A Muslim epithet of Shaitan is Maliku’l-Quwat, meaning Lord of Power. Iblis is not for Luciferians a symbol of “evil”, the Adversary motivates, challenges and inspires those bearing the Black Flame to become via Apotheosis. We are symbolically the new Nephilim, born of the Spirit and Earth and balanced between both with the potential to govern our inner and outer existence.
Luciferians utilize some Sufi techniques. A theory of Sufism is that man is incomplete, part-animalistic and partspirit. The rituals of Sufi practice are devoted to making the seeker “pure”, becoming essentially “one” with the Infinite. That is Right-Hand Path thought, unity with an imagined “God” or governing force. Luciferians agree that man and woman in the initiated state are incomplete, often ruled by animalistic urges with a weakened will and little discipline to guide with the mind or spiritual nature.
Luciferians seek a balance and “Infernal Union” between flesh and spirit to ignite our path to self-excellence. We reject “oneness” with the delusions of monotheistic creating tyrants and their priests. This is a hard path, full of struggle and challenges: Left-Hand Path creates Gods and Goddesses who are aware of their complete ability to shape their life. In summary, if the technique can be applied from our philosophical approach, use it!
