Thanks for your interest in magick! Because the art and science of magic(k) are such vast
topics, I offer you some basic guidelines, on this "TEMPLE OF STARLIGHT" blog, on
how to study magic, including an outline of the basic topics that are important to learn.
What is Magic?
Magic is a precision science! It is also:
The science of deliberate creation.
The science of effective prayer.
The science of manifesting Higher Will (God's Will) on the energetic and material
planes.
The science of heightened awareness, selective perception, and dynamic, harmonious
relationships.
The study of intention (as per Aleister Crowley, one of the greatest magicians).
The system of creation, not coercion.
Note: The word manipulation is often used in conjunction with magic, but manipulation
simply means the use of the hands. It should be an "OK" word without a lot of charge,
but currently it is used mostly to mean coercion. Look it up!
Every intentional act is a magical act! Magic gives us the ability to communicate with
beings on all levels, and allows us to understand, through direct experience, the actual
workings of the Universe.
Magic is the traditional path of spiritual growth.
Magic is not extraordinary knowledge. It is the "normal" way of life. We've just lost
access to it. When you have this kind of knowledge in your understanding, you have the
ability to resolve spiritual questions that otherwise become catechism. From a magician's
point of view, catechism is not acceptable, since a magician must experience and verify
everything for him or herself. It avoids the trap of dogma. In past time, having a magical
foundation was essential so that we could go and talk directly to God, the devil, etc.
Magic is necessary to effective religious practice,
In religious practice, a priest is qualified to perform rituals, but not to create them. Only
the magician has the ability to create because he has the tools of divination to test the
rituals he creates.
There is some confusion as to how to spell the word "magic." There are three different
commonly used spellings: magic, magick and majick. Eliphas Levi first used the form
"magick" to differentiate religious or ceremonial magick from stage magic.

Rules of the Road

Rules of the Road are the set of Universal ethics that must be followed for safe and
effective magical practice. The Rules of the Road are not the same as morals (what our
culture teaches us is right and wrong) or ethics (what we personally believe to be right
and wrong), as both morals and ethics change over time. Particular morals or ethics may
or may not agree with the Rules of the Road.
To practice magic safely and effectively you must know and abide by the Rules of the
Road since, as far as we know, the Rules of the Road operate whether you know of them,
believe in them, or agree with them. Additionally, normal scientific physical laws and
principles must be followed.
Two Major Rules:
1. Whatever is done to the environment or to other beings in the environment brings
similar effects upon the doer.
This is often called the Law of Karma. The Universe doesn't care why some action was
taken, or whether the doer is trained in magic or aware of the Rules of the Road.
Although many different teachers have stated this law in many different ways, including
the Golden Rule, it is especially important for magicians. A magician's acts are
consciously and willfully directed, and are therefore more powerful than the acts of
untrained or unfocused people. So the effect of this law in relation to a magician's acts
becomes much more powerful. This applies to both constructive and destructive acts.
Note: While many religious and other practices consider that Karma can carry from
lifetime to lifetime, it is our experience that the Universe operates under a system of "pay
as you go." In other words, the effect of any act upon the environment (or upon beings in
the environment) comes back to you within a relatively short period of time - within
hours to days.
2. The magician judges the "goodness" or "badness" of his or her own acts, whether they
are conscious or unconscious acts, on the basis of what the Universe reflects back on him
or her. The same is true of judging others, entire communities, states or nations.
On a practical level, one can judge one's compliance with the Universe's standards of
right and wrong, or good and bad, in terms of one's level of health, soundness of social
relationships, luck with appliances, and sufficiency of food, clothing and shelter. If your
"luck" seems consistently bad, then you're probably acting contrary in some way to the
Rules of the Road, regardless of what your intentions are.
Ethical Laws of the Rules of the Road
These ethical laws will give you a more detailed standard by which to measure your acts,
or the acts of others, to determine whether they are in accordance with Rules of the Road.
Judge any act of magic by these laws before doing it.
Do nothing that will harm another being unless you are willing to suffer like or greater
harm. Note that what the Universe considers harm may be different from what our culture
2

teaches as harm.
Don't bind another being unless you are willing to be likewise bound. This applies to
many love spells and some kinds of healing rituals.
Never use magic for show, pride, or vainglory. Using magic to show off, to prove a point,
or from a place of injured pride usually results in side-bands (undesirable side effects) to
the operation that will bring very undesirable backlash from the Universe.
Never set an extremely high price for the use of magic (especially divination, healing, or
spells) based on your having special knowledge. With some operations that take
significant man hours, such as divination, it appears by our observation to be appropriate
to charge the same fee as any other professional might charge per hour in your local area.
Don't use any special word, symbol, incantation, or spell unless you understand
thoroughly and completely its mechanics, content, and intent! Be very wary of using
other people's operations if you wish to avoid "frying" yourself, either figuratively or
literally!
Never do a spell without first doing a divination to determine a) if you should do it, and
b) exactly what needs to be dealt with. Modern American social values and overt
appearances of a situation are not trustworthy guides for a magician wishing to avoid bad
karma. In other words, there may be hidden factors in the situation, which cause the
doing of a spell to be against Rules of the Road.
TAKE YOUR TIME, THINK IT THROUGH, AND DO IT RIGHT!

Why learn Magick?

In our modern society, with our fast-paced lives, trying to keep up financially and at the
same time trying to go for our dreams, still trying to circumvent and juggle living in a
society that is riddled with judgment, fear and control, we have lost our most basic
birthright - our personal power. The power to have our own sacred space and live the
lives we have always dreamed. With this new age of self help books and seminars, there
is an awakening of the need to take back our power and our freedom to live - to have a
choice and be able to live that choice. We have existed so long without our true personal
power that many of us have deeply set beliefs that we never chose, can't seem to
understand why we are unable to create what we want in our relationships and jobs, can't
seem to reach our goals - or even be clear on what they are - no matter how many
repeated efforts we make, and ultimately let negative thoughts, doubts and worry control
us, preventing us from living in our true state. But what does this have to do with
magick?
Magick is very powerful - as old as time, the flow and use of the very essence of energy
in all things. It is pure. It is there. It is working, regardless whether you believe in it or
3

not. Those of old knew about this beautiful power that flows through all things, and
incorporated the use of magick as a way of life. But over the centuries, as social fear and
control grew, magick became virtually obsolete in mainstream society (thereby becoming
unavailable), being ridiculed and denounced by ones in power. In this day and age with
so much confusion and disappointment, the taking of pills seeming to be the norm to give
one the impression of making life better, incorporating magick into your life can make a
very powerful difference - and in doing so, a difference in the lives that you touch as
well.
Magick is a precise science - it is the art of connecting with and manipulation of the
energy that flows in all things. Magick can help you to attract the things you want in your
life; can help you deliberately create; can help you change health and thought conditions
on all levels of mind, body and spirit; will heighten your awareness on both mystical and
worldly planes; can provide you with personal power in concert with Universal Laws.
There really is no limit once you learn the use of magick to what you can create or
change, in yourself, your life, or in the world. It is my sincere hope that, through teaching
the beauty and power of connecting with and using this ancient knowledge, each of you
will become proficient magickal practioners and live your life deliberately in the manner
of your dreams.

Your Motivation
If you start learning Magick you should ask yourself what is mu motivation for practicing
magick? Is it to better myself? To improve your life situation? To get even with someone
who has done you harm? To improve your control over yourself and your life?
Whatever your motivation, its good to state it clearly to yourself. If youre looking for a
quick fix in your life using magick, chances are that it wont work. The ways of magick
is a lifelong path of study and endeavor, not quick fixes. Having said that, let us also say
that there are many easy-to-learn techniques that WILL have an immediate, positive
impact on your life. Its just that these techniques wont solve your problems for very
long because the level of your being attracts the level of your life. You might improve
your finances with a spell, for instance, but if you dont change the level of your being or
the focus of your attention, that money wont stick around for very long, and youll soon
find yourself in the same sticky situation of not having enough money.
If you want to learn techniques to get revenge on someone who has harmed you, you
might want to review the Rules of the Road, the universal laws that govern magickal.
You can find on the first blog of this site. They cover the conditions under which it is and
isnt appropriate to use your powers and abilities.
The best motivation for learning magick is to improve the quality and span of your
attention and intention. Remember that Crowley said, Every intentional act is a magickal
act! If you want to learn magick, work on your attention. Youll find that if you develop
your attention so that you can focus it in one place and have it stay there, all the other
4

motivations for magick will be answered. You will develop control and power in your
life. You will know when to use your powers and abilities in self-defense. You will know
how to defuse situations so you wont need to defend yourself. You will know how to
change the level of your being so you never have to worry about money. You will
intuitively understand how to meet the needs of others and get your own needs met. You
will understand how to manifest all the things you want in life. You will understand what
wants are real and what wants are not. All this and more you will gain if you simply work
on developing your attention. All the techniques in magick are simply about honing your
skills in using your attention.

Why Magick works

Magic works because it follows the operating laws of the Universe. Things always work
better when you follow the rules especially rules that are really hard to bend or break.
For instance, consider the law of gravity on this planet. Can you buck that law? Maybe, if
you dedicate yourself to studying martial arts for several hundred lifetimes. But what
would be the point? The law of gravity has supremacy on this planet wouldnt it be
easier to just learn to make gravity work for you than try to change the law?
Magic works the same way. Heres how: everything in this Universe is made up of some
combination of the four elements air, fire, water and earth. If you want to create anything
in this Universe, you have to know the right mix of elemental ingredients. How much air,
fire, water and earth need to be mixed in? In what order does it need to be mixed? On a
more practical level that translates into what kind of thoughts (air), actions (fire),
emotions (water) and resources (earth) need to go into the mix? Its a lot like baking a
cake you have to have a good recipe, then you have to follow directions.
The study of magic is all about learning the ingredients that make up everything in this
Universe. For instance, if you often get angry and you would rather be happy, using
therapy might help, but it might also take a very long time. It might be easier to
understand that anger is the element fire in the color red-orange. Simply decrease your
balance of red-orange on a regular basis and not only will you not get angry all the time
but you wont BE ABLE to get angry. Thats what I call a shortcut!
Continuing our analogy of baking a cake, the Universe is like a giant kitchen and youre
the cook. The kitchen has all the ingredients and recipe books all you have to do is
know where to find the recipe book and how to follow directions. You have to learn
certain techniques for producing excellent results. There are certain guidelines for how to
mix the different elements and how they react to each other. Its much the same as
learning the difference between broiling and baking.
Isnt it much easier to take a little time to learn how this Universe works through magic?
You might not solve all your life problems in a week or two, but you will be able to start
addressing them in just a day or two. Compared to winning the lottery tomorrow magic

isnt a quick fix. But when you compare a few months of study against, say, 10 or 20
lifetimes of struggle and repetition, magic becomes an incredible shortcut ;-)!

Magick, black versus white

If you go to Google or Yahoo and type in the word magick, youll get a lot of listings
for black magick, white magick, chaos magick, sex magick and thousands of other kinds
of magick. And if you type in the word magic, youll get something entirely different.
So what is magic (or magick)? Is real magic black, white or something else altogether?
In the experience of most magicians with some level of training, magic is neither black
nor white, good nor evil. Instead, magic an unchanging set of operating principles that are
in effect whether the you know them or not. Magical laws are like physical laws they
are impersonal, fixed and completely immune to bargaining. One of our favorite authors,
Paxton Robey, explains it so well in his book No Time for Karma. He says, The
Universe and its rules must be seen as impersonal principle if we are to become self
empowered beingsRemember the law of gravity. When you jump out of the window,
you will go down. On the way you, you might remember about gravity, but the earth will
not care one way or the other. Gravity is impersonal so it will not say, She is a pretty
good person so maybe we should let her down easy. While the idea of impersonal
magical forces can seem cold and unfeeling, the good thing about it is that its very, very
reliable. Youll never go to make use of magical principle and find that its no longer
there.
What makes magic so-called black or white is our intent. Remember that magic is
the study of intention. Our intention and attention are what direct the forces of magic in
one direction or another. So what do you do when you stumble on a website offering
black, white, chaos or sex magic? Use your own experience and observation to decide if
whatever they are offering is really right for you. All types of magic are valid. Whats
right for you depends on your goals as a magician.
In reality, all forms of magic are just specializations in the same field. Magic is such as
vast area of study that every particular branch is just a focused shot in the dark, trying to
find out more about this area or that. Voodoo magic is about using the law, as above, so
below to create effects in the world. What you do to a voodoo doll (as above), you
likewise do to the person the doll represents (so below). Chaos magic is about using
extreme methods to create heightened states of awareness and consciousness. Love magic
is often about making other people fall in love with you.
And that brings up another interesting point. Above, we said that all forms of magic are
valid. They are. But some have sidebands or side effects that you might not want in
your life. For instance, if you cast a love spell thats supposed to make another person
love you, you are binding that person. Binding is a magical problem that causes a
backlash. You see, the Universe operates on the principle of reciprocal maintenance,
which means that whatever you do to others will also happen to you. So if you bind
6

another person with a love spell, you can be sure that youll find your own freedom
bound in some way, against your will.

The Qlippoth
I Have had many questions about the workings of the The Qlippoth. Let make a start with
an exoplanation about the dark site af the Three of Life.
The Qlippoth (QLYPWTh) is the darkside or inverse of the Sephiroth. The Sephiroth is
theancient Hebrew system of the Qabbala in relation to numbers, spheres and areas of
energy. The Qlippoth presented here is a map to the spheres and energies of demons and
shells of the dead. These shells may be embodied with life by the sorcerer who uses
his/her mind to fill them. The goal of the sorcerer is to findand empower these dark
spheres and tunnels within the brain, thus creating and opening them up to
initiate one into the Infernal or Satanic path.
In these emanations of the Tree of Daath, you will find knowledge of both good and evil
within, you will then become as a God.
The model of the Qlippoth in the context of this book is a living map of the subconscious
and the very power of the darkness of the mind. The Qlippoth is a place of shells, hence
the meaning of the word, relating to the chthonic depths of the earth and the spirit of man.
All that you do with Liber HVHI should be results oriented, that is, the obtainment and
retention of individual power and strength.
How do you measure power and strength in this context?
Individual power and strength begins with the mind. The mind has the power of
strengthening consciousness, all it has to do is accept it as a possibility and soon the
belief that it can occur. It does not matter if you actually believe in the spirit world or
not, to communicate and work with the spirit world or actual demons, you must first
accept the reality of such within the mind. The mind itself can be disciplined into
thinking in ways which shift the self towards the being of the defined character of the
Adversary. This topic is further explained throughout the book, read it and try basic
points you can measure results! Results can be found in the achievement of goals via
magick and real world applications, also in the exploration of the self and how it grows
from the initiation of becoming.
In Hebrew Cabalism, Samael and Lilith are represented as the Averse power of the
Qlippoth, being at the head of the ten spheres, that being Sita Ahra known as the Black
Head and also Lavan Haarami. This draws association to knowledge as well as being,
black the Arabic root word FHM which means also to perceive. According to
Cabalism, at the fall of the vandal angels, their powers were divided as an
inversion or mirror of the Sephiroth, or Tree of Life. The Seven Headed coiling dragon,
7

being a collective symbol of Samael or Satan fell to the infernal regions, the spirit of the
apocalypse.
Samael and his angels, before manifesting on earth fell into a black mirror called the
infernal regions, thus night or the shadow itself. While biblical and older lore places the
spirits of the fallen angels and other demons on earth and in hell, the Cabalists have
placed a structured system from which one may enter various spheres of influence of the
fallen ones, by their attributes alone.

Dangerous Qlippoth
The Qlippoth is considered dangerous and more often than not condemned and those who
work in itsshadow are doomed. While the Qlippoth itself is dangerous, it is a much
needed challenge with a great reward for the magician strong enough to master it. It must
be kept in mind that the Qlippothic demons are in theory fallen angels, those who
understand the nature of Light as Wisdom, know that the spirits fell
from heaven into the darkness itself; thus they have the mastery of both hell and heaven.
These places may be considered states of mind and exist foremost within the self of the
magician.
Like Typhon-Set the Magician is bound on his circumference as written by Aleister
Crowley. The circle is the extent of the body of the sorcerer, which is not to keep forces
out rather to illuminate and control the energy of the self within the circle. It is a man
made need to order and control energy, which is illuminated and cast as a shadow by the
magician or witch. The fallen universe is the hidden land which is gained entrance by
Arezura, in ancient Persian at the Mouth of the Gates of Hell. Ensure exercises are
practiced to gain the discipline and will needed to enter this dark place within the soul, let
the knowledge of the Luciferian Angel be known before one casts his or her own soul
into the daemonic influence of each sphere and realm.
S.L. MagGregor Mathers wrote a well rounded work called The Qlippoth for Golden
Dawn members around 1900. This work provides the basis for the below. In the circles of
Luciferian Witchcraft, there have been considerable additions by those practicing the
Great Work in the hells of the Qlippoth, thus change and progression occurs accordingly.
Steve Savedow wrote from Dion Fortunes Mystical Qabala that the singular word of
Qlipoth or Qlippoth is Qliphah, being a harlot. Here we can see that the demonic
feminine or Lilith-Az as being one half of the Adversary holds strong manifestations in
all magical work. To know thyself one must Know Lilith and Samael, they are the
components of becoming within the circle of the devil.
This work is not to be an exhaustive study of the Cabala/Qabala, yet it is to be a source
book of Infernal Book to work with Qlippothic forces to a meaningful, purpose filled

path. The following Four Worlds of the Cabala represent the Tree of Daath or the
Qlippoth, their overall attributions and combinations to manifest form and spirit.

The Fallen Serphim Balance and Focus

Olahm Ha-Qliphoth, this World of material and matter, wherein those of the Adversary
encircle and manifest the kingdom of hell they desire on earth.
One must understand the Qlippoth itself is not to be considered a competing initiatory
object which should be a counterpart to the Qabala. Rather so one may find the Qlippoth
holds both heaven and hell within itself, that the evil of the Qlippoth is not itself an
absolute. Samael is considered to be a Serphim, a heavenly or fire oriented spirit which
has isolate consciousness, holding it popularity in the Old Testament of the Bible.
The term Seraphim relates a spirit which holds a Babylonian foundation of the Assyrian
word Sharrapu, according to Friedrich Delitzsch related to the Canaan fire-god Nergal.
The flames representing the Seraphim and how they manifested Nergal in the Temple13.
Another theory suggested is that the Seraphim itself come from the term, Serpent,
referring to wisdom. See the Tiamat or Uraeus serpent in both
Babylonian and Egyptian lore. The serpent is wisdom, often forbidden wisdom but as
serpents were displayed as having wings in ancient times, this relates to their power over
the air as astral spirits.
As the Seraphim who can be considered fallen (i.e. ArchDaevas, demons) Samael
guides the serpents to bring forbidden wisdom to mankind, to illuminate the spirit as
Yahweh had ordered them not to. As with Cain, the first murderer and Satanist, to his
many children upon the earth this flame is still found in many. Often hidden, there is both
a heaven and hell within the mind and body of mankind. Do not merely enter the
Qlippoth to offset your initiatory focus with the Qabala, rather look deeper into the
Qlippothic gates to find the benefical from the harmful. Keep a perception of balance and
manifest your heaven and hell within.

Ritual Circles for Evocation and Invocation

Students in Magick often ask. Is it possible to work whith the Qlippot in magick rituals. In
this part of my blog I will explain about magical work and the working of the Qlippot.
Use concerning encircling energyThe two ceremonial tools of focusing upon in ritual are
the Two basic Triangles of Evocation, specifically the medieval Luciferian circle, used to
encircle energy and the Yatukih triangle, better known as the Ahrimanic Beast Circle,
used in daeva-yasna workings.
What does it mean to devour energy? Lets take into consideration that during ritual
practice the individual calls forth a spirit, this spirit may be nothing more than an atavistic
9

(subconscious oriented) form which has a deific mask (an anthropomorphic assumption).
The individual encircles the spirit within the triangle, which is designed as a nonChristian tool to not keep spirits locked in from causing harm, rather to keep it in so the
sorcerer may devour or consume the spirit. The symbols of each triangle/circle are
designed to announce the aim of the rite by specific direction and relation. They are left
hand path oriented, of the Ahrimanic or Luciferian alignment.
To consume the energy the ritual is performed, at the height the imagination has brought
forth the deific mask (spirit) and the sorcerer enters the triangle. Using the mediatation
and control techniques, the sorcerer visualizes the consuming of the spirits identification
into the self, thus closing the circle literally of predator verses prey. After the rite, during
sleeping hours and waking those traits and skills embodied in the spirit may be displayed
in some manner through the sorcerer. This is the primary essence of what vampirism or
Luciferian thought is focused upon.
If you are approaching from an anthropomorphic or a symbolic form, you will find a
possible application for success no matter which point of view you invest belief in.
The triangle itself represents three directions from which the spirits gather, two being the
Father of Serpents and the Whore, the Third is the Son who is the first murderer and
Satanist, whose sorcery first encircled the reality of the belief that God is inherent within.
The circle itself represents the circumference of the self, the possibility of becoming.
When you enter the circle, the Will of Mind devours the spirit to allow the spirit to
become part of you. You gain its insight and attributes as you see fit.

ABOVE: Luciferian Circle of Evocation. The ASHTH ZNVNIM (Lilith) and SMAL
(Samael) in union to
beget CHIOA (The Beast). Lucifer is created or awakened from the knowledge of both
10

darkness (SMAL)and Light/Fire (ASHTH ZNVNIM), Chioa is the power which awakens
from the union which is the
Luciferian Spirit. May be used in Qlippothic rituals evoking or invoking (calling from out
or calling from within respectively). Simple design which may be copied in flour or
traced in earth.

ABOVE: Ahrimanic Beast Circle. Ancient Persian Cruciform spelling Ahriman

encircling the desire
creating Druj or Daeva. Used in Yatudivah rituals or Yatuk-Dinoih. The name around the
circle is not to protect rather by the announcement of intention to empower with the spirit
of Ahriman. In some rites the Adept if ritual conducted somewhere other than home, may
use some amount of rotting meat (sacred of Druj Nasu) in bowls or cups at each corner of
triangle, the smell and symbolic reference of mastering horror itself is sufficient to ignite
the imagination.

THELI, THLI, THE DRAGON

In the Sepher Yetzirah, Samael or Satan is also called Theli, (Hebrew) meaning The
Dragon. This is the initiatory force of darkness, wherein the Fallen Angel, Ahriman, or
Satan enters the coils of Leviathan to empower and exist as an immortal spirit, although
as a Druj or Lie, changes continually which can be compared to the symbolism of the
motion of the serpent.
The mystery of Theli as the Dragon is found in taking away merely one Hebraic letter, Th
11

being Tau,
which adds to 400 which leaves LI which equals 40 being Mem, referring to Water. To
enter the Coils of Leviathan, the possibility of spiritual immortality and the mastery of
the flesh while living, calls to the distinction between mere ritualism and actual
Adepthood by entering the Waters of the Subconscious. Leviathan is an essential
aspect of initiation, until the Spirit enters the coils of Leviathan, then the Dragon awakens
completely. The Grimoire of Awakening is found in these very pages, the Qlippoth itself.

The Infernal Habitations the Realm of Leviathan

The Ten Heads of Leviathan compose the embodiment of the Beast of Revelation, found
in Christian
texts and represents an awakening of a being of power via the Qlippoth. Understand the
Qlippoth is
subjective and is made manifest by the imagination the very gateway to hell. The Adept
who utilizes theFour Hells as presented in Luciferian Witchcraft, the Four Hells
continued in this grimoire may then move towards the Tree of Daath or the Infernal
Qlippoth. The word shells represent blind or chaos energy which may be entered and
channeled through the Adept, thus bringing temporary order or willed direction towards
the subjective goal. It can be considered that the Qlippoth may hold separate existience
outside of the Adept, however recognizing such is a long and often painful path of
growth.
12

Many sense spirits, ghosts and other such entities which exist outside of our perceived
subjective reality. What one must be careful with is allowing one to grow blind from an
undisciplined path of chaos itself.Use chaos to manifest your temporary reality through
the attributes of each sphere and concepts via the Zodiac, focus the masks of deific power
to visualize your desire embodied, the response mentally will require the Willed
discipline (attained via Ahrimanic Yoga, practices found within this grimoire and
L.Witchcraft) to intuitively approach the reasonable method to achieve and manifest
those goals.
For instance, if an Adept had a desire to become through the Luciferian path, he would
first study the foundations from cultures often ignored by the general satanic
practitioners, to seek a source if you will. The attributes found in each cultural
manifestation of the Adversary would be compared to find a common perceived attitude
or approach. Once those are perceived by the initiate, he would know if those attributes
(core foundations such as creative defiance, Will to Power, forming Chaos into subjective
Order, controlling inner darkness to a challenging, creative way) were within his own
mental foundations in some basic form. He would then begin a ritualized practice in some
manner to begin evoking and invoking deific masks (i.e. God forms) which in turn
make clear his own strengths and more importantly weaknesses, then while utilizing a
disciplined regimine which reflects a process of challenge and hardship, will begin to
shape those basic self attributes which reflect the ideals of the Adversary. The initiate
would begin perhaps with Goetic workings, which he may hold a personal attraction to,
while later developing through Yatukih sorcery or the Path of Ahriman for a deeper
current of Adversarial power.
The initiate works in a dual sense, literally, to balance the darkness (chaos and possibility
from endless matter) and light (illuminated, temporary order), not begetting one for the
other. If one focuses on darkness in an unbalanced sense, the initiate will run danger of
inflating the ego (always resulting in weakness and placing the self in danger) or madness
(self delusions feed more self delusions resulting in confusion and ill-focused thoughts).
Focusing on Light merely reflects a weakness in the perception of change and utilizing
chaos to form your desire order. A Luciferian holds within always a Black Flame, or
inner light if they continue with the disciplined Will to balance the spiritual with material,
each manifests from the compliment and reaction of the other.
Upon utilizing these methods with defined spiritual and material goals the intiate will
become to manifest a perceived anthropomorphic form of the Adversary, thus a daeva
or demon. At this stage more spiritual tunings are possible depending on the
individual, but remains the test to continue balanced or become a shell itself by losing
direction and goal.

Infernal Habitations
The Infernal Habitations are in basic definition representations of human consciousness
and areas which the mind moves through during different periods of time. Essentially, the
13

Infernal Habitations mirror the creation myth of God forming the world in six days.
When chaos opened its salivating jaws, it spewed forth that which created the seven
infernal habitations.
The Infernal Habitations in a dreaming sense are the unconscious areas which are the
very conscious and subconscious mind; they are within the coils of the Crooked Serpent,
Leviathan, the fell angelick host who became the Great Dragon and the guiding force
between Samael and Lilith. Upon the path of the Witches Sabbat, the sorcerer goes forth
on his or her own road away from all others, upon the very spine of the serpent
overlooking the Infernal Habitations. Here the magician or witch may dive into the deep
waters of self-creation to emerge and go forth on the path again. The mysteries of the
Dragon are manifest in the fall. Samael descended with the Legion that went with him.
His form was a Seven Headed Dragon; upon its head were Ten Horns. This is a symbol
of the Ten Hells, as Hell is a word meaning secret place, or Helan15. If one takes the
Tree of Life as a model of Heaven or towards Heaven, then the Tree of Daath or the
Qlippoth is the model of Hell from which Samael and Lilith created. The Mouth of the
Dragon joined the Crooked Serpent, Leviathan to manifest in each of the Waters. The
Word of the Lie or Druj is symbolic of the serpent or dragon. The lie is the mask of the
Adversary, it is ever changing, thus nothing is true and everything is permitted. This is
the selfinvoked spell of self-creation and progression. The serpent or dragon (druj=worm)
also is symbolic of Leviathan, the encircling daemon of endless time. By the work of Az
(desire of continued existence) does
the magician begin the process of self transformation.
This model of Qlippoth was presented by S.L. MacGregor Mathers and provides a
powerful initiatory tool for those daring enough to drink of the Cup of venoms kiss, the
very nectar of Iblis.

The Seven Earths of the Qlippoth

The Seven Earths are manifestations of the fallen angels and their astral dwellings. These
are equally oflater created demons and devs. They are:
1. Aretz Crumbling and desolate earth.
2. Adamah Red colored mold.
3. Gia Undulating ground.
4. Neshiah Pasture and meadow.
5. Tziah the desert lands.
6. Areqa Earth.
7. Thebel or Cheled Earth and water, mixed.
There are Four Worlds of the Tree itself, being:
1. The Water of Tears, representing the pain and shock of falling from the empyrean
abode to the darkness or infernal regions. This is also a world of shadows forming into
desire. This is when all is stripped away and illusion is no more. The initiate discovers
14

this early on during his/her initiatory focus. This is the first stage of transformation
spiritually and becoming like Lucifer, in the methodology of thought and action.
Atziluth Inverse Kether, Chokmah, Binah: the 10 spheres
of HVHI, the unspoken name of Samael. Nobility of the Spirit, the Mind, Akoman.
Know the hunger of becoming, of devouring. This is an alchemical process which allows
the intiate to develop and manifest the Beast within while refining and strengthening
consciousness and self-Divinity.
2. The Waters of Creation, being the inverse creation or shadow becoming away from
the light. Keep in mind this is similar to the lore of Samael as the Watcher planting the
seed of the forbidden tree in the darkness; The Waters of Creation beget the children of
Cain.
Briah Inverse Chesed, Geburah, Tiphereth: 10 spheres of the body of the Black
Adept, the Ten are the body and spirit, mastery therein. Creation as a result of spirit,
thought.
3. The Water of the Ocean is both angelic and demonic spirits, the water from which
the dragon comes forth, the adversary or dual headed opposer, but also the union brought
between the Adversary by Leviathan.
Yetzirah Inverse Netzach, Hod, Yesod: 10 hells in 7 places.
The Daemonic Feminine, Lilith-Jeh-Az, the feminine which allows
creation to take form. The seven rays of the stooping dragon joined
with the Whore to create in flesh. The Water of the Ocean is the formless
chaos void of which Az/Lilith empower their children to name and
manifest their world around them.
4. The False Sea being the astral plane, this is the desecrated darkness of water which
the Beast arises from, the dreaming plane. When one performs an act of witchcraft or
sorcery, sending it forth in the False Sea, their Will is made flesh by their manifestation
on earth as a Beast from the Sea. This is the astral plane of where one seeks the Averse
Sephiroth of devourment, as a Son of Ahriman or Tiamat.
Assiah Inverse Malkuth: matter, action, manifestation.
Possibility willed and made flesh, the material world itself.

Path-working Exercise: Moving through the Four Seas

In a cold and barely lit chamber, sit in the position of legs folded and posture upright,
close your eyes and begin a process of controlled breathing. Allow your spirit to begin
moving, floating as if you have no physical body. You are shadow, a ravaging and
hungering geist which moves from the flesh you see the realm of the astral clearly,
differently from the waking flesh bound state.
Enter first The Water of Tears, imagining your own spirit falling from the highest
15

empyrean realms, enshrouded in flame and shadow as Lucifer fell, to the depths of
darkness. Here all in your life is revealed as it really is, be it positive or negative. Allow
yourself to be honest, noting your weaknesses and strengths. What you wish to improve
upon.
Move now through The Water of Creation, here mindless and chaotic serpents move
through the waters
without true form or direction, mindless. You can take and devour those shadows which
you can then
emanate from your flesh as darkness, allowing a specific strength to balance out to
further improve in term of character trait, desire, etc.
Move now through The Water of the Ocean where you come face to face with the
daemonic form of
the Beast, the seven headed dragon with the 10 crowns of the Adversary. With the
command of Will
summon and encircle this beast within you; make it a part of your mind, your flesh and
your very spirit! The Water of the Ocean is where you shall make the world change
according to your desire by the words you speak, actions you take and how well you can
form meaningful, disciplined thoughts into manifestation of Goals and achievements.
Allow your mind to think in terms of your existience from the Adversarial aspects of the
Samael and Lilith, they are given form in your own being.
Move now through The False Sea, this is the astral or dream plane. Here you can
shapeshift and take any form you feel a connection with. You may use the false sea to
drink from the spirit of others, to devour and bring yourself closer to being as God itself.
Use The False Sea to manifest that which you so desire.
The Qlippoth, the infernal spiritual realm has four cherubs who stand above the
inverse Sephiroth, being Rahab, Samael, Machaloth and Lilith.

But while the excess of Mercy is not an evil tendency, but rather conveys a certain idea
of weakness and want of force, too great an excess of severity calls forth the executioner
of judgment, the evil and oppressive force, which is symbolized by Leviathan. Wherefore
it is said, "Behind the shoulders of the bride the serpent rears his head:" of the bride, but
not of the mother, for she is the supernal H, and bruises his head. "But his head is broken
by the waters of the great sea." The sea is Binah, the supernal H, the mother. The serpent
is the centripetal force, ever seeking to penetrate into Paradise (the Sephiroth), and to
tempt the supernal Eve (the bride), so that in her turn she may tempt the supernal Adam
(Microprosopus).
Kabbalah Unveiled by S.L. Mathers
From a different perspective, Paradise can be seen as unawakened, ignorant bliss. There
is no challenge, no adversarial movement against another. The supernal Eve has been
awakened by Lilith and Samael to then seek to lead Adam to the path, by eating the fruit
Leviathan is able to pierce into the Sephiroth to illuminate the Averse Sephiroth or
Qlippoth of the Black Adepts.
Samael and Lilith are the eternal couple, their force together is what embodies the form
of the Adversary and the result is the image of Baphomet, the head of wisdom or Cain in
the circle of the wise. An interesting note concerning Samael is the Three Satanic Forces
behind him. The Three Veils are primal descriptions of darkness and the abyss. They may
be used in workings which require intense introspection concerning the nature of the
Adept. If using the Tree of Daath or the Qlippoth as a means of selftransformation, these
veils are the uppermost one ascended after transforming in Kether Inverse, thus
awakening within the Luciferian Trinity or HVHI. This is a title of the
17

Opposer/Adversary and represents understanding, wisdom and self-focused power. HVHI

is the reversed name of the Hebraic/Christian God, thus the Adversary is man or woman
ascended by the fall.

The Three Veils

0 Tohu, formless and desolation.
Qematiel, a black headed dragon-serpent who unites under him the force of Kether of the
Averse Sephiroth. Kether is the Sphere of Satan or Moloch and is thus a power source
behind Metatron or the powerful angel, it is a direct ascension through descending which
leads to the Gnosis of the Adversary. The Adept understands here there is nothing but the
essence of the sorcerer, that all he/she needs is their own mind and body, that strength is
always found within.
00 Bohu, void and emptiness
Belial who is described by Cabalists as a black and bloated dragon-man. He denies god
and unites the averse force of Chokmah. Belial in the physical world is a form or idea
behind the Antichrist, the Lord of the Earth, while in the astral plane the second angel
said to be created next to Lucifer, or Samael. In this void, the primal darkness of
nothingness, the Adept becomes like Belial in that there is no God but the
self; you are alone, there is no comfort of some God watching over you, no mediating
savior to offer your life to, just your mind and spirit. Belial survived the beginnings in
darkness by understanding the inner fire of spirit, how to fan that flame and make your
own self-created light.
000 - Chasek, darkness, primal void that from which the Prince of Darkness and
life emerged from. That from which Samael sought to move away from.
Gothiel is a black insect-man who is said to unite the force of the averse Binah.

Qabalism in the Luciferian Witchcraft Gnosis as a developing tradition holds some

significance in the tools offered by the Qlippoth in assisting towards the Great Work, as
much importance and significance is given to the darkside which allows the magician to
come forth as a manifestation of Lucifer into the Light.

the Qlippoth and the twelve Princes

In the Qlippoth there are twelve Princes and demonic rulers to each month of the year and
astrological signs. The witch who seeks to use them within an initiatory focus may do so
within the connection of the lunar month attributes (sign, moon tides, etc) with the
18

features of the Luciferian Patron Daemon of that

In the Qlippoth there are twelve Princes and demonic rulers to each month of the year and
astrological signs. The witch who seeks to use them within an initiatory focus may do so
within the connection of the lunar month attributes (sign, moon tides, etc) with the
features of the Luciferian Patron Daemon of that particular month. There is within the
center over the Twelve Luciferian Princes four patron demons which are crowned by the
Type of the Adversary Samael Asmodai.
When seeking to explore the patron spirits of the months, visualize a sphere with the
color associated, you may create a sigil which holds attributes of the deific forms of the
month. Enter slowly the sphere you visualize. In the primal darkness of Chasek the Adept
by Will-Desire-Belief creates his/her own world through ensorcelling desire and by
overcoming the obstacles creates the belief to manifest that desire in the material world.
One should ponder on the process and connection of spirit mind body and the
interplay of Magick and Sorcery to achieve it.

Capricorn (Dec.22 Jan. 19) Active Earth

Dagdagiron Manifests in the form of devouring fish, color Red. Represents
leadership, strength, ambition and materialism. Use this sphere to align thought with the
attributes of Dagdagiron. Holds attributes to Belial and Savar.

19

In the darkness of my mind I create all foundations of thought becoming action. I invoke
the ancient spirits in the darkest waters, arising from the roaring oceans illuminated by
the Black Flame can I see my potential as it was. When one becomes a
vessel for the void, then the mind made afire by the gifts of the fallen makes one the
center of the Religion of Zohak. I walk unto the shore, with the lusts of this world at my
command, Dagdagiron may serve my Will accordingly.
Aquarius (Jan. 20 Feb.17) Fixed Air
Behemiron It is said the arms were derived from Behemoth, considered beasts in the
form of Hippopotamus Elephants with their skin spread flat like a cockroach. Colorblack-brown.
The fallen Lucifugum angels transformed by blackened fire formless when in motion,
they reside around the practitioner of the Luciferian Rites, the Adept may devour aspects
of their shadow to grow in astral or spiritual strength. The Luciferian stays grounded in
the here and now, the physical plane, while balancing a spiritual focus which strengthens
earthly results. Here is the Mind of Akoman awakened in the Adept the use of reason
itself.
The fall brings an awakening. No mindless bliss, intense burning and then calm. In
spirit by the dream I may go forth, drinking and devouring Anghuya, drawing it within
the circle of being. The Behemiron are not bound by conventional flesh, they exist in the
caverns of darkness, going forth in the night by the winds of the astral plan. Do not allow
yourself to be absorbed by the impotent slaves of the all absorbing light, cast your mind
away from this sickness of spirit.
Pisces (Feb. 18 Mar. 19) Mutable Water
Neshimiron Hideous demon women, skeleton like, united with the bodies of serpents.
Color watery blue
Inward emotion, introspection and the understanding of emotions exploring emotions
and learning to control them. Nocturnal desires, the daughters of Lilith born in her caves
in Hell, wherein she creates and consumes life. Explore your sexual desires, elements
which pique your interest, seek to understand why. Use your hearing to observe the
behaviors of others, learn to listen. Watch their motions, their tone of voice how do
they sound, what are they really trying to say? When evoking or entering the sphere of
Neshimiron, focus on the color of the demonesses, seek the element of water which may
be formed. Recall the essence of Az, flowing blood.
Entering the caves, entering the cold, flowing water. The blue illuminated by the light of
torches quickly turns black with blue illuminations underneath. No need to breathe, no
need to panic. Going deeper the Neshimiron come forth they move as if they are not in
20

water, so natural, quick and flowing. They speak words of desire to you, yet they are
demonic in form. They know your deep desires, they whisper to you. Listen well to what
they tell you. Do not ignore their words, they can be a mediator for your darkest points of
the mind.
Aries (Mar. 20 April 19) Active Fire
Bairiron Dragon-Lion beast derived from Samael, color black.
The Bairiron are fire demons who were given form by Samael, the Prince of the Fallen
Angels. They arelike the Djinn, just as Samael is both darkness (air dark matter) and
Fire (air allows fire to be, to spread)these demons are active, violent in motion and very
courageous. The Bairiron are guides of manifestation, of what you can achieve if you
only try.
In the circle of fire in the depths of a spring night evoke the Bairiron, these demons
composed of fire shall further inspire what you wish to achieve. They will stir the Black
Flame within, it echos to their call. The knowledge you have gained will feed these flames
further. You may create what you wish in the world of flesh by action in motion. Let stasis
not overcompensate for your lack of Will to achieve. Simply act with thought and expect
results. In this forge of flames does Cain transform the blood of his victim into the blade
of war, that he can go forth with his children and manifest the Will of Samael, his
father.
Taurus (April 20 May 20) Fixed Earth
Adimiron Lion-Lizards color - yellow and gray.
Awakening in the darkness of the earth, worms around my face as I gasp for breath I
can feel something within growing stronger. I seek to awaken in this flesh and claw my
way to the surface. I seek to take smell the night air, to imagine the thrilland emotion of
the hunt. This world can be ours, those who drink of the ecstasies of darkness.
Gemini (May 21 June 20) Mutable Air
Tzelladimion Savage and triangular headed dog like beasts, color bronze and
crimson.
The Luciferian spirit lives in all cultures, the name and face may change but our spirit
remains always. Legion is only the beginning. The dark air, that born from northern
winds is that element of which we ride, our steed and messenger. All curses,
blessings and devouring servitors go forth in this way. To humanity do the fallen ones
ride in the form of wraiths, night hunger and the thirst for human blood and spirit. Our
element may be formed according to Will. In the dream should you understand that all
can be created or equally destroyed. All is subject to change, applying the foundation of
the Art of Chioa, to make the
physical world you desire flesh.
21

Cancer (June 21 July 22) Active Water

Schechiriron reptile, insect and shellfish, demon faced. Color black.
We transform by the deepest desires of the spirit, that which sleeping below. In
continual motion do we arise, yet transform again. Our hunger is eternal, as is the fire
within each. We are the serpents which arise in your flesh.
Leo (July 23 Aug 22) Fixed Fire
Shelhabiron Merciless and vicious wolves and jackals, see connections with Yatuk
Dinoih and such spirits of Ahriman. Color, fiery yellow.
The spirit of the dev-wolf is but our shadow form, offered to us from Ahriman, our
father and mind bringer. Within all isthe beast, to awaken it and control it is a path to
self-deification. All wolves answer the call of Ahriman, to master theinstinct and focus
ones desires leads to strength and the spirit eternal.
Virgo (Aug. 23 Sept. 22) Mutable Earth
Tzephariron partially living yet decaying corpses, undead and shades in flesh. Druj
Nasu in YatukDinoih. color, earth.
Physical death is a reality of the flesh, yet death is just one stage. Druj Nasu grows
strong in the body of the living, is made a
compliment to those initiated upon the path of the Adversary, when one enters the
darkened path does Druj Nasu make hertemple in the spirit and flesh. Her sadness is
physical death, wherein the spirit moves beyond the veil but stronger with herblessing.
Druj Nasu begets the devouring maggots through her form of the Fly. Respect the cycle
of death and rebirth, for in Predatory Spiritual ecstasy in Druj Nasu found.
Libra (Sept. 23 October 22) Active Air
Obiriron Gray bloated goblins, color clouds.
The fallen do not stay that way; they emerge and move about this very world, invisible
to the unawakened eye. Be as one of the fallen, a spirit will then join in your flesh to
make you stronger. Your spirit by the dream must be as a cloud, ever moving, seeking
and devouring. Do not fail to experience that which may open your mind. See the
direction of your design by focus and will, stray not from the path ever sought by the
adverse.

22

Scorpio (Oct. 23 Nov. 21) Fixed Water

Necheshethiron Devilish human headed insects, color, copper.
Do not rest so long that you may forget your strength and determination. Rest long
enough to move again upon the path of storms. In the flame of the Adversary can you
become a source itself. In the depths of Leviathans lair can silence bring restbit, then the
hunger to emerge again.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22 Dec. 21) Mutable Fire
Nachashiron Dog headed serpents, colors of serpents.
The flame of inspiration, of movement and manifestation by a voice of compelling order,
is the spirit of adversarialmanifestation. Let your voice be as the serpent, guiding,
intelligent and fresh air to those who are chained by stasis. Let the fire
spread to all who would fan its flames. Let the serpent slither into the souls of those who
would receive it. Let your voice command the order of your desires.

The circle of the Twelve

The circle of the Twelve surround the southeast northeast northwest southwest
angles who preside the forms of Lilith and other Averse demonic forms.
The South West Angle is described as a winged horse and winged lion drawing a chariot
for the youngest Lilith, the bride of Asmodeus. She is considered a dark skinned woman
from the waste up, Arabic/Middle Eastern in features, below having the parts of a beast
or being composed of fire below the waste. She draws men and women into the darkness
of Hell, she is the eternal Az or Jeh, the Whore initiator in her youthful aspect. She brings
inspiration and lust, just as her mate Asmodeus or Aeshma, but also the capacity for war
or violence, aggression and that associated with that fire of self.
Signs of the Zodiac Covering Libra, Scorpio and Sagittarius.
The South East Angle is the Evil Adam (or is this perhaps Cain, the illuminated) who is
described as being Goat-headed and skeletal in form. With him is the thousand Hydra
headed serpent and the elder Lilith, the bride of Samael, whose form is every changing
and mutating. This is Az Jeh in her ancient crone aspect, but also the shape shifting
menstruating initiator of the path of the witch and Luciferian.
Signs of the Zodiac Covering Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces.
The North East Angle is Aggereth, a daughter of Machaloth, considered a demonic
witch whose hair is made of serpents, who sits upon a throne within a chariot drawn by
an Ass and Ox. Aggereth is the dreaming/nightmare hag whom offers copulation with the
participants of the infernal Sabbat, and by joining in flesh and spirit with the Hag Witch,
23

she gives the venom of the Sabbat, the shape shifting balm which is the imagination itself
she clearly invokes Atavisms
Signs of the Zodiac Covering Aries, Taurus and Gemini.
The North West Angle is described as a scorpion which stands upright and composed of
putrefying water, gigantic in size. With this demon comes the unnameable one,
Abaddon, his image is black, huge and covered in whirling wheels and blades, within his
hand a wheel which has a multitude of cat-like demons upon it. Behind Abaddon is
Maamah or Naamah, a crouching demon like woman, who is of Az Jeh the Mother of
Harlots, she has an animals body and eats the earth while crawling.
Signs of the Zodiac Covering Cancer, Leo and Virgo.
Within the center is the Adversary form of Samael Asmodeus. The Cabalists compose
Samael as being the Devil of the Tarot, and Asmodeus as a bestial man in a crouching
position. The Rosh Satanim or Head of Devils whose elixir is Sain ha-mawet, the
poison begetting life in both darkness and light. The Angel of Death who is Samael is
indeed Ahriman or Satan, the Adversary along with his Bride, Lilith or Az. Asmodeus is
a Son of Samael/Ahriman whose consort is a younger daughter of Lilith.
Aeshma/Asmodeus is a powerful spirit who manifests in matter through the individual
whose path is of the fallen ones.

The Adverse Powers at the Feet of the Cherub

These Ten Hells in Seven Places are areas of specific mind-power, where the magician
may enter and command a form of order from the chaos of the subconscious, thus the
universe. In this, the witch or magician should approach the Ten Hells in seven places as
being a gateway to the 7 heads of the Infernal Dragon, a form of the Beast or Samael. Just
as in the Yatuk Dinoih, Arezura is the opening to the mouth of Hell, the Hell of Hells
leads one into the depths of Qlippothic and Averse Power. Once the Adept has gained an
understanding of the concepts of these controlled or ensorcelled areas of Chaos and
Darkness, can then the magician Will the energy within each in conjunction with Spell
Workings and Meditative commands, astral travel and dream control. Here is a prime
example of the Magician as being
like Set, who then masters the Serpent (Qlippoth). In mastering the Qlippoth, the
Magician (a
manifestation of Set) holds then the power of the Qlippoth (the Serpent).
The Ten Hells (Horns) in Seven (Heads) Places

24

1 3. Shahul/Sheol Triple Hell

1st Satan and Moloch. The work of Luciferian Witchcraft presents the alternative as
being the THREE being Samael-Lilith-Cain the Yatuk Dinoih correspondence being
Ahriman-Az-Zohak (Azi Dahaka). This unity begets the HVHI The Devil or
Unnamable One.
2nd Beelzebub being the Lord of Flies and Lord of Chaos. Yatuk Dinoih attribution
being Druj Nasu and Savar/Saurva.
3rd Lucifuge Rofocale - Yatuk Dinoih Attribute being Andar.
The depths of the earth, called the grave hell of Supernals, Triple Hell. This is also
symbolic of Azi Dahaka or Zohak, a Son of Ahriman/Satan, who was kissed on the
shoulders and two venomous black serpents emerged. See Luciferian Witchcraft. Here
is the place of which infernal darkness is first formed into positive light by the magician
and his or her Will, a step with achieving communion with the Luciferian Angel. The
Opposing Shadow forms of the First Hell as equally Satan and Moloch. Here the twin
serpents of Zohak may find representation on earth, as Ahriman was displaying this
misunderstood level of attainment to his Son. Satan and Moloch are not the actual
foundation of the Adversary or Luciferian Trinity, rather they are manifestations
from and states FROM these forms. The Patron Daemon of this second hell is Beelzebub,
25

who is commonly known as the Lord of Chaos and Lord of Flies. In the Yatuk Dinoih
system, Beelzebub would be considered the same as the demon of decay and corruption,
but also
spiritual initiation being Nasu, the Druj as well as Savar, considered the same as Belial
the fell angel. The Third hell is presided over by Lucifuge Rofocale, who is considered
by the Grimoire tradition as being the prime minister of the infernal regions. Lucifuge
would be considered the same as Andar in the Yatuk Dinoih, one of the Seven
Archdemons of Ahriman.
4. Abaddon Yatuk Dinoih: Zairich
Perdition, the in-between hell of when the magician is become Daemon like and still
based within the physical world, not yet in sensed communion with Samael-Lilith by
moving towards the transformation.) Abaddon is ruled over by Astaroth, a Goetic Demon
ruler and fallen angel. Abaddon may thus be considered a state of movement, often
destruction cycling creation. Astaroth would be considered the same as the Persian
Zairich, whose poisons are actually nectars of initiation.
5. Tythihoz/Titahion Asmodeus Yatuk Dinoih: Aeshma
The Clay of Death is Asmodeus who is the mate of the Younger Lilith. Asmodeus is the
Demon of the
Wounding Spear, who is by Persian reference Aeshma, a demon or dev of violence and
motion. Called also shma, Eshm or Hesham, Asmodeus represents desire and the
motion of which it may become flesh.
6. Barashechath/Barshasketh Belphagor- Yatuk Dinoih: Naikiyas
The Pit of Destruction is ruled over by Belphagor, who is called the Demon of Opening.
This dev in Persian form would be Naikiyas or Naonhaithya, a druj or daeva of self
advancement and initiation.
7. Tzelmoth/Tzalemoth Bael -Yatuk Dinoih: Paitisha/Taprev
The Shadow of Death, the Patron demon of this sphere is Bael, a Witch Father whose
form is of Three Heads, a man, a cat and a toad. In the Yatuk Dinoih, Bael would be
close to Taprev/Taurvi, a Demon of Herbalism and witchcraft. Alternatively Bael may be
a manifestation of the dev Paitisha, who has no form (Bael is invisibility) and thus
represents the spirit of Yatuk Dinoih, or witchcraft.
8. Shaarimrath/Shaarimoth Adramalech - Yatuk Dinoih: Akoman
The Gates of Death, being transformation. The Demon Ruler of this sphere is
Adramalech, who is a King of Fire. This relates to Akoman, the Evil Mind, the spirit of
self-deification and antinomian thought, an Archdemon of Ahriman who has no form.
This dev is of Black Flame, or Blackened Fire, represents the gift of perception.
26

9 10. Giyehanim Lilith and Nahema- Yatuk Dinoih: Az/Jeh

Being Hell. This Hell is presided over by Two Demon Queens or Witch Queens, Lilith
and Nahema.
Nahema is considered an Angel of Prostitution like Lilith and is sometimes called the
mother of Asmodeus with Samael. Nahema is sometimes called the Demoness of
Impurity. In Persian sorcery Lilith and Nahema are forms of Az Jeh, the Mother of
Demons.
An alternate Tree of Death is given as the following also. This may be interesting for the
practitioner to choose which model they wish to work with, as each hold a considerable
amount for introspection and Knowing Thyself.

27
