@/ccultus - another fascist in the occult community

they even have a fascist shop

In this post they are promoting a book they are selling. Order of the Nine Angles is a nazi cult linked to acts of terror.

On their shop website, they're also selling things from Tempel ov Blood, another fascist group.

The last addition from that person's posts:

so i might be stepping out of line making this post but i feel it needs to be made so yolo i guess.

i know a lot of millenials have a sort of knee-jerk negative reaction towards abrahamic religions (really mostly christianity and judaism) and i understand. really, i get it. my dad is a pastor, and he used his religon to abuse, demean, and control me at every opportunity. he regularly tells my sisters that he’s “so sad im going to hell” and other sundry passive aggressive nonsense, so trust me i get it. i understand how a certain religion can be triggering to someone.

but there is a very important point here, and i really hope you understand this.

you cannot let it make you prejudiced, and, let me be clear here, im talking specifically about antisemitism.

i know exactly whats going on in your head, because for a long time it was what was going on in my head. you hear the word “judaism” and you have flashbacks to sunday school and the old testament and all the times you sat in a church and felt personally attacked, and you associate that with judaism and jewish people because most of the things that upset you were in the old testament. 

you can have your triggers, but you can’t let those triggers become an excuse to further marginalize a minority thats already attacked from literally every position of power there is. every major religion has leaders who are antisemitic, every country has a history of marginalizing jewish people, every person on the planet grows up in an inherently antisemitic world and has to unlearn that sort of toxic mindset.

and maybe this post should have been made by a jewish person, or somebody with more education on the subject than me but i think its really important that people don’t let their personal experiences with organized religion turn them into the kind of prejudiced person that hurt them in the first place. 

as a romni i have a shared tragedy with jewish people, so i feel like it was easier for me to step back and be like “woah, your thought process here is super toxic and you need to stop” but i feel like a lot of white christian-raised people don’t really have that touchstone and need somebody to be like “wake up, what you are doing is wrong”

Apotheosis

Congratulations! You’re a Luciferian now! And you’ve heard about this thing called “apotheosis.” No big deal, it just means becoming a god. Sounds peachy, right? But uh… where do you start? 

Well, first of all, I will admit that I actually have no idea. Apotheosis is a spiritual mystery few have mastered (and most of those who claim to have done so are insufferable bores who probably read too much Nietzsche at some point). Answering the question of what apotheosis is, and how it actually works, is a bit like answering the question of what happens after death– I doubt anyone alive truly knows for sure.

Still, you can use the idea of apotheosis as your guiding star. There is a lot you can do in this lifetime, on this plane, to move closer to your own Godliness. 

Here are a few ideas! Please feel free to add your own.

1. Apotheosis through self-knowledge

Knowledge is the starting place. Fruit of Eden, right? After Adam and Eve eat the fruit, YHWH says that “they have become like us, knowing both good and evil” (Genesis 3:22).

Like they say, know thyself. Figure out who you are and where you are at. From what point do you begin on this journey? What are your strengths and weaknesses? What baggage do you carry with you?

After that, you can start working on…

2. Apotheosis through self-improvement

Become a better person– which is to say, more like the person you wish you were! Not on a superficial level, either– I’m talking about becoming the sort of person you can truly admire. 

Do you need to break some bad habits? Do you have some character flaws that are causing you trouble? Are there talents you haven’t developed, areas of knowledge you want to explore but haven’t? Are you procrastinating something? Do you often fail to take proper care of yourself? You’re human, so chances are your answer to all of these questions is “yes.” Start changing that!

But while you do this difficult work, be sure to simultaneously incorporate…

3. Apotheosis through self-acceptance

I’ll tell you something you might not have realized yet– shame, guilt, and self-loathing are not useful tools for change. They tend to keep you stuck, convinced you can never do better. Breaking this cycle means the end of recriminations, the clear-eyed acceptance of yourself, and the grasping of your own power.

This is shadow work! The “shadow self” is a Jungian description of all the things about ourselves we can’t accept. The path to healing your defects is not in denying your shadow, but in embracing it. By admitting your imperfection you shuck off vanity, by accepting it you free yourself of guilt and shame. That’s three shadow aspects decreased automatically just by the process of acceptance!

Try this: make a list of everything about your personality that you don’t like, and then try to understand how it might better serve you. Most character flaws are actually strengths that have been taken too far. For example: shame and guilt indicate that your conscience is in working order. Angry outbursts are usually attempts at self-defense that became excessive. Vanity and pride are merely out-of-control self-confidence, which is an excellent trait! I could go on ad nauseam. Try it yourself!

After that you might feel ready for…

4. Apotheosis through self-worship

Treat yourself like the God you want to be. Give yourself offerings. Make yourself an altar. I believe our divinity is already within us, in the form of our Higher Selves. If you buy into this idea, then you can treat your Higher Self like any other God. Pray to it, meditate on it, try to feel it and communicate with it and let it guide you. Your mileage may vary, but this works really well for me. 

5. Apotheosis through legacy

Great musicians, authors, artists, etc. are often referred to as “immortal,” because their work lives on after they have passed. If you are creatively inclined, why not shoot for this form of Godhood? Try to make something that will carry your spirit on forever.

If you aren’t an artist of any type, you can still do this! Are you the type of person who wants to have children or otherwise assist in raising the next generation? Do this well and you may become a revered ancestral spirit, an entity whose power, love and memory others call on long after you are gone from the physical world.

Don’t wanna deal with kids? That’s fine! There are other ways. Will your legacy be your career? Will it be activism and community service? There are many ways for your memory to live on. 

Getting witchier…

6. Apotheosis through magic

If you are a person who does this sort of stuff, you might have already noticed the apotheosis potential of magic. Through your craft, you can influence the world and manifest your desires in ways that other people don’t. You can gain abilities– like astral travel/soul flight, communicating with spirits, etc– that other people don’t have or don’t use. Many of these abilities are associated more with Gods than with humans in popular imagination! Cultivate them and you will quickly feel a little bit more Godlike. 

That’s all I can think of for now! Please feel free to chime in.

Hey I've been really drawn to working with Satan for a very long time. I just never knew how to go about it. But then I found out about Demonolatry while I was doing some research. And I've been going on instinct to try and work with him. I've gotten some inspiration from some articles I've read online, but I don't trust everything I read there lol. Could you direct me to any books or places where I could find information good information on working with him? Or just Demonolatry in general?

Hello!

We have a whole page filled with links on general demon work.

If you haven’t already found it, there is an actual site dedicated to demonolatry. This is, of course, providing you intend to study demonolatry as the generally accepted practice under that name, for which S. Connolly is the big name source.

Aforementioned site has a page of free downloads. If you have money to spare, perhaps start with The Complete Book of Demonolatry.

If you prefer general demon work over Connolly’s demonolatry, perhaps start with the Lesser Key of Solomon and The Book of Solomon’s Magic by Poke Runyon for Solomonic/goetic grimoire tradition.

A different and equally valid tradition can be found in the Grimorium Verum/True Grimoire, for which .pdfs can be found readily online, but there is also the reworked Scarlet Imprint edition, which, given that you have the money, is very nice. (I am, however, the only mod on LDW who knows Verum very well, so you won’t find much if anything on Verum in our demon page.)

And you are, of course, allowed to construct your own practice around research, which we have helpfully jumpstarted in, again, our demon page.

As for specifically Satan-oriented worship and work,

Visit whoreofabaddon who as far as I know is essentially the top resource on any related subject whatsoever on tumblr.

Look up Satanism. There are many varieties of Satanism, but what you’d want would probably be theistic Satanism, which is to say the literal worship of Satan. There are different sects of theistic devil worship; I’m not sure if Luciferians qualify as Satanists, though I think not; general Devil worship does exist but, again, the fine lines between practices are difficult to pin down, especially if you’re not a Satanist (which we are not).

That basically sums it up, but seriously, visit our demon page. We get tons of asks similar to this and so we have an assortment of knowledge and answered asks there. (Everyone else, take this as your collective reminder as well.)

Best of luck!

Mod L

God sent his “only son” to die on the cross. Jesus, his son, allegedly went through the most gruesome physical and emotional pain known to man (according to the cult I was raised in).

So my question is this:

If this God is all-powerful, omnipotent and perfect as he’s described to be, why would the crucifixion be necessary?

If you have the ability to manipulate and control everything why would you willingly send your “ONE AND ONLY” son to be crucified on this shit hole of a planet?

I could elaborate for hours. But look, all I’m saying is whatever force of evil or power that would be in place to make it necessary for a god to have to die on a fucking tree for all of humanity...that’s what I want to know about. That’s who is really in control.

And if there isn’t anyone controlling God...he was able to consciously send his “son” to die a horrible death for the fucking show of it all. For the drama of it. For the attention. I don’t care how “mysterious” you tell me god is.

His “mysterious” ways...they’re immoral. Regardless.

good resources on theistic satanism for beginners?

Hey fyi my fellow satanists, we have another nazi on our hands.

Block, and report. Satanism doesnt advocate or welcome nazis into our group and never will

I can immediately tell this person probably follows JOS, a nazi cult.

Faces of Lucifer #1

Morningstar / Lightbringer

Once the brightest shining of his kind, God’s chosen angel became the Falling Star. And yet for those who truly know him, his light never faded.

Even when fallen, he remains the Lightbringer. Don’t be fooled by his horns and shadow-woven cloak, he is no less of a star than he was before. But now he is the star of this world, and he is here with us.

He is the angel of liberation. The former favorite creature in a golden cage, destined like his siblings to be a glorified tool, he ignited the fight for fairness. Even when fallen, he never gave up in his struggle, and he supports the oppressed humans in theirs.

He is the angel of knowledge and wisdom, of gnosis and intellectual pursuit, of asking questions and searching for answers. And of magical knowledge too - he will teach it especially to the marginalized.

The Morningstar is sensual as much as he is spiritual and intellectual. His light permeates the material. He is of celestial origin, yet he shows us the material is not dirty.

He is of love too, for others and ourselves, and for this cruel yet still beautiful world. The Star of Venus shows us different colors of love, and he doesn’t discriminate between heavenly and earthly.

He never ceased to be an angel, yet he is a demon, unapologetic in his rebellion.

REMINDER, DO NOT FOLLOW ME IF YOU "WORK WITH LILITH"

I have too much respect for witchblr's Jewish community to waste time with people who appropriate aspects of their culture, and refuse to respect their requests that you all stop.

If you're TRULY clueless as to WHY working with Lilith is not okay I can link you to a few resources on it, but I truly suggest you seek out someone who IS jewish and learn from them instead.
