INTRODUCTION
'Darkside Magic from an Off-White Perspective.'
By Peter J. Carroll, Past Grandmaster IOT Pact.
We always advise our neophytes and initiates NOT to wake the Elder Gods, knowing full
well that the best of them will rise to the bait and do so. The darkside glamour exerts a
powerful charisma which every magician should explore and understand. Since the dawn
of history the training of sorcerers and shamans has included a 'harrowing of hell', a
knowledge and power quest into the subconscious underworld of unspeakable desires and
fears, and for good reason. Any repressed desire will claw its way out of the dungeon at
an inappropriate time or at an unguarded moment if left unacknowledged and unsolved.
Thus religious people have a propensity to commit exactly those enormities which their
religion specifically forbids.
We off - white chaoists forbid nothing on moral grounds alone. 'Nothing is True', and
'Everything is Permitted', as we say, not forgetting that 'The consequences can be
Ghastly'. To those exploring the darkside we can only advise ‘Do what ever you can get
away with' and monitor the conditions of your material existence as a guide. If you find
yourself becoming more powerful, wealthier, and sexier then press on. If you find
yourself shunned, impoverished, imprisoned, or dead, then perhaps a change of course
suggests itself. Darkside magic offers a short and dangerous path to triumph or disaster,
more usually the latter, so proceed with care.
Consider this introduction as a brief pause in the antechamber to hell. If you choose to
embrace and live the cthonic murk and stygian darkness of the following chapters you
will certainly get some return on your investment of belief, for it has been well crafted by
a master. You may learn much about your various selves that you would have been
happier not knowing. You may even find a way through the darkside labyrinth to an
effective mastery of the mysteries of darkness and daemonic psychology and
parapsychology. Many have tried, most have failed. Do not even think about proceeding
unless you have already equipped yourself with a very robust and versatile sense of
humor. Take a flight recorder with you, if only in the form of a fire proof diary, so that
others may learn from your mistakes.
Chaos proved to be a playful and rewarding lover who, despite being capricious, was
never spiteful. Hail Eros! Darkness promises much but does not always deliver. Beware
of the pale Hecate. Create your Gods with care, for they will reform you in their own
image. Peter J. Carroll, 1999

PREFACE
During the past several years I have seen many publications arise concerning vampirism
and sorcery, most of the time having no connection with each other. The Darkside of
Magick holds many treasures for those who would drink of its cup. I have worked in the
occult since I was very
young, it is very much a natural thing to me, and the connections between the topics of
vampirism and sorcery were made known to me at an early age through my dreams. At a
later age I actually made a magickal connection, the result of this study in print is the
Book of the Witch Moon. This is meant to be a study guide to the night side, a non-
Christian dogma infested approach. The methods of Witchcraft within this tome are of
the darkest magick, when vampires, werewolves and sorcerers haunted the nights, doing
their work and weaving webs in your dreams. We are still there, alive in your
mythologies, alive in your mind.
What is Witchcraft in essence? Is Witchcraft the worship of nature, an earth religion? Not
completely. The tradition, which I have studied through and learnt, is the darker side of
Witchcraft, far more dangerous than traditional Wiccan rites however the results are
much greater. Do not fear the darkness of the self; let it guide you through the shadows
to the light of Prometheus!
This work is meant as an inspirational guide, through which the individual can gain
access to the subconscious and the vast resources of the mind and its elementals.
Witchcraft is presented in a different form than what most perceive, to this to add as an
‘alternative’ to modern Wicca although not condemning it. Hold no tradition which
would bind you, for the Witch blood speaks to those who remain of a faith all - their -
own. Question, Become. Let nothing stand in your way.
The Author and the Publisher accept no responsibility for any misuse of any ritual or text
contained herein. Painted in these pages are words of dark power, given command
through the mind and its vast abyss of vision and knowledge. Be ever so cautious in your
explorations and be sure you are ready for the shadows of your own mind, as well as any
outer spiritual forces which may enter your life. Asmodeus and Lilith are waiting.
This book is part personal record and part map, a way towards the dark essence of the
Qlippoth, and of the lore of ages. It is dangerous in it’s methods of dealing with such
forces as they are demonic or the more balanced counter spelling ‘Daemonic’ (neutral
spirit intelligences or elementals which hold their own godlike association not associated
with any dogma’s such as ‘good’ or ‘evil’. The great opening of the Abyss is encoded
within the Grimoire, open and enter with care.
Our basis is to establish a thought process ushering forth in this upcoming age based on
balance and ancient values. The subconscious must be explored on numerous levels to
understand what is known as the beast within. We do not wish to throw in a new religion,
or claim something amazing or revolutionary. This book was conceived after a great
personal undertaking which involved the Goddess BABALON, for which opened the
5
6
gates of Hecate and Lilith. This work is seen by me personally as a manifestation and gift
for these forces, which both myself and Elda Isela continue to work with. Our approach
towards Witchcraft is based in nature, that each Sabbath is a time of tuning ourselves in
with its tides and changes as well as reaffirming our paths and sorceries.
The Sethanic/Luciferian path is founded at least with the version we provide as one of
many paths, that in this definition the idea of Chaos Magick comes to mind. The
workings of the Witch Moon are of the Left Hand Path, gathering hidden knowledge for
the development of the individual and the alchemical process of self-deification.
The work of Austin Osman Spare is of particular interest; being that what is called the
Zos Kia Cultus itself holds a gateway worth exploring and developing upon, building and
expanding it by every living breath, opening the vortex of the mind towards the current of
witch blood that waits beyond.

earth. Demons do exist, however it is not always their intent to harm innocent humans.
Our point is to destroy AND create.
The magick in these pages is of all colors, being that of significant power. Law perceived
as going forth by night and day, creating with love and joy and the destruction of that
which is ill. The manifestation of both the Black and Red temple (that of death and sexual
magick). There is no evil in the heart for the essence lives intently on it's message. Every
man and every woman have their animalistic urges, from which Atavisms develop and
exist.
We are throwing open the gates of Saturn (the gates of Death, hidden knowledge), they
are the resurgent atavisms, the hidden spirits and archetypes of shadow and night, the
black sun shining with life and wisdom - the Torch bearer (1 ) behind the darkness.
Love, health, wisdom and beauty are the finest forms of existence. The shadows in the
night which glow under the moon exist to dance with you, to guide towards a glimpse of
the Night of Pan, to gather on the astral plane at the Witches' Sabbath. Come close, if
your will is against it much is deadly, however with pleasure and the glowing lamp of
strength all is possible.
Come within the night side, where Varcolaci await....

Nachzehrer is a vampire which is found in the northern part of Germany and the
Kashubes, which include Bavaria and other surrounding areas. The Nachzehrer is born in
the coffin under the light of the moon, it awakes and begins tearing it's own flesh. This
vampire is able to contact its living family members on the astral plane, guiding them into
its own feeding. When the Nachzehrer was exhumed, it was found to be resting in its own
blood and a half devoured grave shroud. A peculiar thing about the Nachzehrer is that
this creature sleeps with it's left eye open and holding it's thumb. It was not rare that this
creature would begin to eat its own flesh.
When the Nachzehrer would leave it’s tomb it would sometimes climb the tower of a
church. The demon would then ring the bells in the dead of night, which was said to
cause death to any who would be unfortunate enough to hear the ghostlike callings in the
night. It was the belief in Bavaria that the Nachzehrer could be created if an individual
was born with a caul or second skin, an unfortunate circumstance for many an innocent
child born with such a birth defect. This vampire was often connected (as with many of
it's kind) as holding the powers of plague and pestilence.
During times of such sickness many a vampire hunt would ensue, causing numerous
graves to be exhumed and the corpses defiled by the paranoid town folk. Nachttoter (a
magickal title taken by the author) is a vampire which translates "killer in the night", a
being which would haunt the dreams of many, painting the walls and bed sheets in blood
and semen of bestial congress. Neuntoter was given its title by the belief that it takes nine
full days for the vampire to develop in it's coffin or tomb. Found in Saxony, the
Neuntoter was recognized as being a severe carrier of the plague.
The Alp is a vampire like spirit associated with the incubus/succubus who would torment
the dreams of men, women and children alike. The Alp is considered often to be that of a
recently deceased person, or often a demon of the tomb - that which is bred from the
darkest aspects of magick and the astral plane. The Alp can take the form of a cat, pig,
dog and other creatures such as a werewolf and demonic beasts which resemble rabid,
black dogs. This spirit is also known to wear a hat and use its powers to fly the night sky.
Its methods of feeding include entering the mouth of the victim through a long serpent
like tongue and changing to smoke, wherein it absorbs the life force of the individual.
The Alp is also said to drain blood from the breast of women, and of men and children
through their nipples. This incubus proves difficult to get rid of as it exists almost
exclusively on the astral plane. Very rarely was it said to manifest anywhere else but
dreams.
Nosferatu (also Slavonic in its basis) is a vampire spirit who haunts the astral plane as
well as the earth. Its bat like appearance exemplifies its predatory qualities. The
Nosferatu is said to be associated with the incubus and succubus, indicating its
connection with the astral plane. Once the creature is buried, it will rise from the grave
shortly afterwards, going forth in the night to grow strong on the blood of the living.
Male Nosferatu are said to be able to impregnate women, the children are then destined to
carry on the lineage of its father and become a sorcerer and Moroii, giving nightly
communion of blood to it's parent.
Romania and Hungary have significant folklore as well, Hungary being connected with
the Bathory family. Countess Bathory added fuel to the fire of vampire mania in Europe
by being caught indulging in her blood lust, killing and bathing in the blood of over 560
girls.

Romania adds yet more strength to the vampire lore with its colorful races of vampires,
being Varcolaci (of which Coven Nachttoter and the Coven Maleficia derived
inspiration), Dracul, Strigoi and Moroii.
Varcolaci is a Romanian vampire spirit. This particular vampire spirit is generally a
living individual, going forth in a presumably normal life. In the night however this
vampire would physically enter sleep and its spirit would rise as what was called
Varcolaci. The undead spirit is able to rise towards the night sky, in the form of a small
dragon or wolf with many heads, to drink blood from the moon. The Varcolaci are also
able to haunt villages and drain astral life force and blood from the sleeping.
The Varcolaci vampire is quite powerful on the astral plane, being able to haunt the night
in many forms, depending on the primal urge and desire. Further explanations and
developments of this form are discussed in later chapters of this book. Dracul or Dracula
is Romanian meaning "Son of the Dragon" and can also mean "Son of the Devil".
Dracula is known as Vlad Tepes, a Romanian noble man who lived from 1431 to 1476
and protected the Transylvanian country side with terror and honor. Vlad was known as
the "impaler Prince" for his use of impalement and torture. His modern tactics of war and
subterfuge proved him to be a successful war lord and Prince. His war with the Turks
lasted his life and gave birth to many tales of his vampiric actions and violence. An order
he belonged to, The Order of the Dragon, was a defense against the Turkish offensive
that was rumored to involve magical activities.
Strigoi is represented as an undead vampire spirit, sometimes female and also a kin to the
word strigoica, meaning "witch". It is the Moroii, who are often Varcolaci themselves,
who meet the Strigoi in the night and give communion of blood and other lustful unions
of demonic passion.
The individual, who seeks to explore and envelop the self within the shadows of vampiric
sorcery, must be willing to become as those nocturnal archetypes which hide within their
subconscious. You must embrace that within your deepest self, which is ever changing.
In other words, take upon your conscious what is fitting to your personality and self.
Vampirism and Lycanthropy is the most dangerous path to take on magickally, as it
invites the dark arms of the Black Eagle and Thanatos. Proceed with caution.
When I began focusing on the archetypes and symbols of vampirism I began drawing
connections to the system of shape shifting according to the nature of the vampire
presented. For example, a tale of female vampires would give them the astral form of a
cat, an owl or raven. Many male vampires would take the astral assumption of a wolf or
bat. It was said that vampires may take the form of mist or fog, this connection obviously
comes from the ability to assume a mist form on the astral plane. If certain points of chi
can be strengthened into a viable physical energy then one can view the astral in the form
of the chosen focus. Most often, this is seen in dreams or mentally open times depending
on the individual thoughts and mind set.
Through the past 600 years of vampiric history, many women and men would wake from
a seemingly restful sleep, still feeling exhausted and worn out. Their experience from
dreaming would be disturbed or reminiscent of a waning sexual experience with a
demonic or angelic being. It is possible to develop, out of inherited and personal traits, an
independent predatory instinct which can function on "autopilot" while dreaming. Then
that the hunter may seek out unconsciously those who have imprinted on the astral plane
their wishes of congregation and lust. Many have developed from personal experience
10
11
(ie. childhood or early life trauma) a predatory complex which would act itself out from
frustration during the dream state. The main difference between a serial killer and a
dreamer is the killer takes his/her desires out on flesh instead of a subconscious dream
situation. Such an individual would lack self control and the need for balance and
understanding. For the sorcerer, it is known that natural instincts of hunting and survival
are not to be repressed and ignored, but rather should be explored and understood, for a
significant part of the individuals make up lies in those hidden corridors.
The Lycanthropic strain of humanity lies in its hidden urges and primal desires. English
sorcerer and artist Austin Osman Spare (3) brilliantly structured a system based on belief
and loose bonds. Atavistic resurgence is the act of bringing forth primal desires via the
subconscious, wherein such desires manifest and sometimes breed into monsters. It is up
to the individual to build a great amount of strength to confront, understand and control
such energies. Many lycanthropic urges manifest in violent sexual activity, wherein all
honesty is present and a pure aspect of psychic make up is understood. Blood and sexual
congress have long been interpreted as animalistic lust, resulting in the creation of
psychic bonds between the individuals involved. Countess Elizabeth Bathory (4) often
would stick pins and cut the flesh of her young victims after beating them almost to the
point of unconsciousness. Blood baths would provide the Countess with the ease of her
own obsession with staying young and her subconscious desire for the blood of youth.
One tale set in the northwest of England involved a vampiric spirit known as the
Nightstalker of Croglin Grange. A family moved into an abandoned home located right
next to a very old graveyard. The young woman, who lived there with her brothers,
retired to bed one evening. She glanced out of her window to notice two red eyes
gleaming in the darkness, moving around gravestones and through the yard. She then lost
sight of it and in puzzlement went to sleep. She awoke some time later to a scratching at
the window, in fear she froze, not being able to scream or even move. The vampire then
tore away the lead of the window pane until the glass crashed to the floor. A necrotically
gray hand reached in towards her and entered her chamber. She fell under its spell as the
demon drew closer to her. The being was pale and thin, almost skeleton like... its mouth
and eyes were crimson red; she felt an overwhelming sense of fear and even lust.
11
12
At some point she was able to regain her senses and scream aloud for help. Once her
brothers reached her bed chamber and entered they found their sister lying on the bed,
blood pulsating from her
throat and the white sheets
covered in burgundy. There
was no one present in the
room, save the ghostly wind
which blew through the
cold room, from which no
window pane kept out the
night air.
The werewolf has long been
associated with vampirism
in European folklore. It is
after all, the vampire which
is able to shape shift into
such a wolf like beast
covered in gray or black
fur, gleaming red or yellow
eyes and enormous, cruel
fangs.
12
13
supposed werewolf tribes there, which were led by Mane-Garm, they too were said to
devour the sun.
This was due to Mane-Garm's everlasting hunger for flesh and power. Many werewolves
of this culture had titles as Sinfjotle (he with yellow paws), Hjarulv (sword wolf) and
Kveldulf (evening wolf).
It is possible for one to assume the form of the wold during astral projection. The
transformation on the astral plane permits intensely surreal experiences. The hunt in the
dead of night is one of the most significant of htese experiences. Details on lycanthropic
transformation are given later in this book.
The wolf girdle would often give the individual the power to alter his/her form into a
beast. This method, which would require an atavism working, would cause the individual
to feel a large shadow move within him/her and become one with their mind. The beast
would transform the flesh and spirit into an enormous wolf, hungering for blood and
flesh... for the hunt. During the period of such transformations, as I can personally attest,
tracking or traveling in great forests or through fields is a beneficial experience. The wolf
is an excellent hunter, able to travel long periods without rest and to move virtually
soundlessly in the night. It is known that the wolf can run up to fifteen miles an hour for
the period of roughly three hours or more. It is not rare for a wolf to cover up to one
hundred miles a day when food is scarce during a brutal winter or such.

act was done along with Pierre's friend Verdun, who smeared himself with this foul
smelling ointment as well. The two became wolves and began to devour other humans.
Moyset sneered at the two and rode off into the night. The two were captured and
executed for their crimes.

This is an excerpt from a German pamphlet spreading the evils of lycanthropy several
hundred years ago.
"Stubb Peeter
A True discourse declaring the damnable life and death of one Stubb Peeter, A most
wicked Sorcerer, who, in the likeness of a wolf, committed many murders, continuing
this devilish practice twenty five years, killing and devouring men, women and children.
st
Who, for the same fact was taken and executed the 31 of October, 1589 in the town of
Bedbug, near the city of Cologne in Germany.
"From the town of Bedburg unto Cologne in upper Germany, there was brought up one
Stubbe Peeter, who from his youth was greatly inclined to evil. He gave himself to the
practice of the wicked arts from age twelve years until his dying day. He gorged himself
in the damnable desire of magic, necromancy and sorcery, acquainting himself with many
infernal spirits and fiends. In the end he sold his soul to the devil in return for a life full of
carnal pleasure.
Unlike other accursed men, this vile man sorcerer desired of the devil neither riches nor
promotion nor any other outward pleasure. Being of a most cruel and bloody mind, he
requested that he might work malice on men, women and children in the shape of some
beast. Thus he might live without dread or danger of life and be unknown as the
perpetrator of those bloody enterprises which he meant to commit. Recognizing this
wicked fiend as a fit instrument to perform mischief and destruction, the devil gave unto
Stubbe Peeter a girdle, which being put around him transformed him forthwith into the
likeness of a devouring wolf. This demonic wolf was strong and mighty, with great eyes
which in the night sparkled like brands of fire. It's body was huge, a great mouth wide
with most sharp and cruel teeth. As soon as he would take off the girdle the talons with
long and razor sharp nails would become human hands again and would appear as if he
had never changed from human form.
Stubbe Peeter was herewith exceedingly well pleased with this form. The form which he
could assume was quite in step with his nature. This demonic gift was in no way
troublesome thing for it was light of weight and hidden easily.
He proceeded to execute sundry most heinous and vile murders, for if any person
displeased him, he would thirst for revenge. No sooner should his enemies or chosen prey
walk abroad in the fields or about the city, this vile sorcerer, in the form of a wolf would
stalk them and never rest until he had plucked out their throats and torn their joints
asunder. Before long he had developed such a taste for blood, that the shedding thereof
became his greatest pleasure and delight. Upon sundry time he would then travel through
the streets of Cologne and Bedburg, searching for victims of his demonic bloodlust. In
those places would Stubbe Peeter walk up and down until he espied either maid or wife
which he lusted for. Upon choosing the victim he would draw them out of the city or
follow them, wherein he would ravish them and then, in his wolfish form, cruelly murder
them. Yea, it would often come to pass that as he walked abroad in the fields, if he by
chance spy a company of maidens playing together, or milking their cows, in his wolfish
shape he would run without delay among them. While the rest escaped by flight, he
would for sure lay hold to one, and once he satisfied his lust he would murder them. It so
happened that he had a daughter, who was a fair young damsel by which name was
Stubbe Beel. She was said to be very beautiful. Stubbe Beell was also victim of her
15
16
fathers' lustful desires, not even she was free from his perversion and desire. At one
length the devil sent unto Stubbe Peeter a succubus, elemental who was in flesh a
beautiful and surreal woman. This woman was with him for seven years, and once her
purpose unto Stubbe was served, she disappeared. This did not falter Stubbe Peeter, he
continued his lycanthropic changes and began shedding blood each day.
The following matter doth stand as a special note of the wickedness of this abominable
sorcerer.
He beheld a proper youth for a son, begotten as a young man. In this lad he took to much
joy, commonly calling him his heart's ease. Yet as he favored his son the beast within
took over and he spilt the blood of his only male child. One day he took his son into a
field and told him he would return. Suddenly a hulking shadow of a wolf encountered his
own son and cruelly slew him. Once the horrid deed was done, the wolf cracked open the
skull of the boy and ate his brains.
His career lasted many years, filled with violence, murder and devilish lycanthropy and
sorcery.
Soon the towns of Cologne, Bedburg and Sperad, seeing themselves so grievously
endangered,
plagued and utterly terrified, ensued upon a hunt of this beast. At last they were able to
catch this beast, who took the wolf girdle off and returned to human form. The hunters
thought it was some devil in human form, however they soon learned of his home nearby
and that he had lived there for years. He had then also admitted to killing and sorcery. It
was also found out that his daughter had assisted her father along with his mistress
Katherine Trompin. Their judgments were passed October 28th, 1589 in such manner.
Stubbe Peeter was tied to a rack and torn apart limb from limb on October 31st 1589. His
daughter and mistress we later burnt at the stake the same day."
It is the goal of the Coven Maleficia (7) to not condone violence or harm to others, but to
present the choice of shadow exploration and individual understanding and power. There
is no seeking of members, as they are few and hidden, like the dream of blue ice which
forms on the windows on a cold night. There is no set temple, beyond the individuals
who practice upon their own will and desire. The result of the misuse of lycanthropic
power is always negative to the sorcerer if used out of the law of "Do what thou wilt..".
In other words if it trespasses on another individual's rights of life and joy then it is
wrong, unless provoked or within a magickal combat aspect. Our witch - dreams are
walking in the rows of the night. Forever.
Astral vampirism and lycanthropy can be obtained once the Warlock and Witch are
capable and adept in the Witches Sabbat arts. This will demand much in the area of
discipline, self mastery and will in order to obtain such powers, however, be sure the
reward is ten fold for such a development!
Tales of the Sorcerer who in secrecy leaves his or her flesh to take the form of an animal
or vampyre spirit to celebrate the Horned Lord or Black God of Illumination and life
upon earth will be once again whispered in the halls of the dead, our kind never died out
or went away, we carried our lineal witch blood through the throes of time and space,
covering the earth again in secrecy.

Chapter Two
The Book of Night
-Elementals of Mind and Space-
Vampiric or
‘Vampyric’ Sorcery is a
technique of evoking
and directing energies
which are Qlipothic in
nature and/or origin.
The Kabbalah defines
the Qlipoth as
unbalanced or negative
energies which exist
beyond the sphere of
Da’ath, which is dual in
it's qualities. Da’ath is
often represented as a
power zone of wisdom,
the hidden knowledge.
One may ask, what is
the key? The KEY is
the subconscious, the
dark matter of the
brain.
Elementals are different from spirits in that they will often take the form of desires and
what we call atavisms, they take the form of urges within the psyche and rarely can be
17
18
made to assume visible appearance. Austin Spare was said to be able to do such at
certain times however his witch mother ‘Yelg’ Paterson was said to do such at will.
Da’ath is guarded by Choronzon, who is regarded as both demon and vampire. Some
texts have presented Choronzon as not a demon at all, however but a guardian of this
hidden sphere who is only considered 'evil' due to it's alien nature to conscious or even
subconscious human thought patterns. I am presenting Choronzon as a demon, a vampire
spirit. Now am I defining it as 'evil'?, NO. My reasoning is that evil is only a closed term
defining already pre-dogma - ridden thought patterns, a system within itself. One must go
beyond the gates of Choronzon into Da’ath in order to begin to understand first, the self
and secondly, the exterior universe.
Once one has crossed the Abyss it is then possible to begin to control and shape his or her
own individual destiny based on the discovery of the True Will or Holy Guardian Angel.
Choronzon is also a vampire spirit. It can not be evoked or invoked in its entirety. The
reason is that Choronzon is all that can invoke madness or destruction, creation only
being possible through summoning, facing, passing through Da’ath and banishing. This is
the mastering of Choronzon, thus, in essence the end result of controlling a part of this
energy.
Vampiric Sorcery is the mastery of the elementals of the deep subconscious. Are all
vampire spirits merely elementals which exist at deep levels of the mind? Well, my
experience is no, they are not. Some are pre - created spirits, long dead ghosts who seek
some sort of revenge or those who have lost their battles with Choronzon or as Lovecraft
called "Azathoth" (1) and drank too deeply from the Mother of Abominations.
Choronzon could be considered the same as the Egyptian APEP, whom is a demon of
Chaos. The Lord of the Luciferian Witchcraft Cultus is SET, the Prince of Darkness, is
known for his battle with Apep and by destroying the demon, he becomes the master of
Chaos. In the sorcerer’s life, he or she would seek to become Set-like and master Chaos
(Apep). This is a point of High Sorcery and mastery of the earth. This is mirrored in the
Lord of Air and Fire, Lucifer/Azazel/Shaitan, revealed in the Holy Guardian Angel form
– Azal’ucel.
Vampire Elementals are connected with deep desires and lusts that emerge from the
subconscious. If undiscovered they will often grow with the desires of the individual until
they rise to the surface. If individuals are unbalanced they create further dangers. I always
recommend that the sorcerer be strong and sound of mind before even attempting to
invoke or evoke such elementals, for they exist on dark levels of the sleeping mind and
hold the keys to the gates of Da’ath. If one is not prepared they will be brought forth to
the gates and come face to face with Choronzon, madness will grow until their reality is
not his/her own.
To evoke elementals who are already in existence, yet based in negative power zones is
perhaps just as dangerous because one is attempting to control beings which exist outside
18
19
their own time and space. They are defined as 'demons' for this reason, being that nothing
is sacred and your life is alien to theirs. The other significant point is that such spirits
seek your life force; they literally want to "suck your blood".
Such demons are powerful during ongoing astral battles and defense; however they are
nearly useless for positive workings. Some exceptions can be made however not many
are worth exploring. Use other means. I would recommend that the sorcerer begin
invoking the vampire elementals within the mind before the ones beyond. One must
master the self before they seek to master their universe! Being primarily an independent
sorcerer, I rarely involve myself in, or work with many other magickians within my rites.
One particular example displays my reasoning for this: Several years ago, when we were
in fact diving 'head first' into these theories, I had
a sigil constructed which was based on the Romanian Varcolaci vampires, an astral
wraith which took form flying towards the full moon on certain nights.
The sigil involves an inverted pentagram within the center, thus invoking a 'sinister'
reaction from most people. The Pentagram is not by any means meant as either 'Satanic'
or 'Evil', however to merely invoke the essence of inverse, or Choronzonic rites which
involve a semblance of the Death Posture in order to reach the heart of it's being. This
sigil is a representation of night side, shadow or lunar forces. These forces are actively a
part of the individual subconscious and compose most of the matter of the brain. Fear not
the powers of your mind, embrace the shadows! I had two partners who seemed to hold a
genuine interest in magick until they were faced with the rites we had planned.
The sigil was painted and drawn on both a parchment and a back drop for the altar, giving
an ominous direction for the rite, submerged in the applications of astral vampirism. We
were invoking the hidden vampiric aspects of the subconscious, given form by our
collective will and focus. We sought to bring forth a spirit fueled by blood, from which I
gave the offering of will.
Towards the end of the invocations, one of the magickians became ill and had to exit the
chamber, while the other persisted on with my mantras. Before I had completed the other
had decided this was not for him and remained silent, no further offering in the ritual. I
had to close and banish extensively, for such forces remain powerful if not invoked
properly and such disruptions were adding towards the demons growth. I had fear that it
was taking on the attributes of our collected focus, a demon of three heads no doubt! I
have since, learned from such an experience to build barriers of banishing strength as
well as working with only the well screened. To face Da’ath and control its elementals
and energies is to transpose the Abyss and awaken towards a glorious morning!
Vampirism is a belief system of altered thinking and new focus. It is not at all different
from the beliefs of any serious magus or sorcerer who seeks to build the black walls of
individual strength. The subconscious holds ever key needed to awaken these primal
atavisms: the serpent, the wolf, the dragon, the bat, the owl and raven are all at our
command. The new age of shamanic tribal transformation and atavistic resurgence is at
hand.

The vampiric path is not necessarily a life long dedicated focus, it is night side. In other
words any other personal path of magickal power and study such as Thelema (2), Chaos
(3), Voudon (4), etc. can be a primary focus of the individual. The developed path of
vampiric sorcery is of the night and shadows, when the sorcerer may shed his flesh and
take to the night sky.
It is when the sorceress can assume the form of the cat, raven or wolf and hunt for astral
congress... all predatory instincts may be exercised and sharpened. There is no need for
the vampiric sorcerer to stay away from the sun or sleep in a coffin, they do not have to
wear black or paint their own face white. It is based on the individual's will and desire not
on show and gimmicks.
Before one can attempt to change their surroundings and work their magickal will, one
must master the self on each level. For this reason, a number of banishing rituals should
be performed on several levels. This includes Goetic (5) and Enochian banishing rituals,
etc. This is only a basic start to the world of shadows.
To begin to understand the basis of vampirism, one should study his/her own
surroundings. This includes why he/she thinks of certain things the way they do, how
he/she treats friends, lovers and family, etc. If something offends you, why? This takes a
large amount of concentration but can be most rewarding if one can go beyond the walls
of the conscious. A suggestion is to keep a dream journal, it is especially significant in
the beginning as you will be able to follow subsequent psychic developments and
emergent thought patterns. Dream control stems from the ability to understand the self
and offer a power base within the subconscious. Foundations of iron are most important.
To create something strong one must use the highest quality of materials available.
Evolving a mental connection to the astral plane requires the most rigorous self-analysis.
It is during this period of analysis that the aspirant becomes a 'solitary', shunning
unnecessary contacts. The reason is that the mind and its magickal abilities are
20
21
strengthened in solitude, and the methods of will training in isolation are therefore the
best companions.
It is during this time that the sorcerer is able to further practice the methods of sorcery;
Chaos, Thelemic and other methods of magick which will enable a strong transference
into the astral world of vampiric sorcery.
The individual will begin to learn and understand that all things in this world can be
changed or adjusted to the warlock’s will and that he/she is ultimately the master of their
own destiny. An aspect of proper training techniques is that the aspirant takes to viewing
and studying things normally disgusting to their own personal taste. There are objective
but subtle reasons for this that will become clearer as they proceed. At the starting point,
it is of the utmost significance that the individual focuses on understanding their own
fears and pains, without these reasons necessarily being clear. It will however be seen at
once that this aspect of the training makes for a devilishly strong individual.
Belief
Vampirism is the
extension of the astral
mind and night side
reality. All that is
transformable from the
flesh to dream is subject to
change on this level. One
must learn to separate
him/her self (which most
students of the hidden arts
have done already) from
the sleeping world of
people, lost in crowds, lost
to themselves and
dedicated only to
skimming by in their lives.
The successful magickian
is one who realizes that the
universe is composed of
simplistic beliefs which
are only connected with
the extension of the mind.
If you believe it, and act
towards it then it is real.
21
22
The sorcerer views life as sacred, and as it's keeper, that it is their choice which path to
take in it. It is not surprising that most people choose a path of blind religion, believing
truth is what a books states without exploring for themselves. The vampire sorcerer
understands that everything must be questioned and explored, for nothing is sacred and
everything can be changed. Life and joy is available to the fighting individual, one who is
able to go beyond what is dictated and forge a great path in his/her own life.
They also understand that no one else can accomplish this for them, on the contrary, more
often than not other people and their beliefs get in the way of achieving personal
happiness. The vampire will realize that such is the way of the world and it must be
altered from behind the scenes or mask of dreams if you will. The vampiric sorcerer is
quite capable of going through life without another knowing of his magickal practice,
what he/she is capable of and that all is subject to change via will.
When I received the vampiric current in the early 1990's I knew something was changing,
my mind was opening: I knew that ahead of me was either the great goal or total mental
ruin. With will and courage, I allowed the current to manifest in my subconscious and
grow into a massive reality. This is true with other forms of magick, for each is related
and the goal is often the same.
To learn magick one must have begun to understand the self and individual strengths and
weaknesses. Magick is defined by Aleister Crowley as "The science and art of causing
change to occur in conformity with will." (6)
The process of belief is based on the already constructed reality of each individual. Each
person is a collection from different sources, mixed together to form one "group mind".
This is the picture that emerges when individuals seek to embrace change while
strengthening the self. In the dissolution of what seems to be an exterior and stable
personality we discover that change is ongoing, increasingly so as we follow a never-
ending evolutionary process. Ritual involves the restructuring of previously defined
22
23
It is wise for the magickian to focus on holding a semi-stable mind, as serious magick has
a way of blowing up on you. The path of the magickian often pulls no punches and has
proven to be a difficult path. It should be the focus of the student to learn and progress
via mind control techniques, breathing exercises, controlling all functions of the body in
detailed measures. This requires that you be strong minded and focussed on what you
wish to accomplish. By entering the vast night side, in which vampires truly exist, you
will be opening yourself to a world whose Inhabitants may devour you unless strength
and the shield of WILL are present.
Frozen Silence
The practice of holding the body in one position for extended amounts of time is very
significant. The self in a ‘still’ or ‘frozen’ state is often an avatar of building and
controlled energy. When an individual controls their thoughts on almost every level,
holding the point of consciousness between lines of almost subconscious existence, then
the mind is at the threshold of magick and sorcery. This is why I have always relied on
physical exercise and training as a stepping stone towards magickal practice. The mind
on the conscious levels works extremely fast and remains intent when one is engrossed in
physical activities such as hiking, swimming, climbing, running, weight training and
such. A good time for sigil workings would be when one is focused on pushing the body
towards a physical point of exhaustion.
The practice of freezing the body in one focused state for an extended amount of time is
suggested. Begin slowly until you are able to sustain for over one hour.
Find a comfortable and quiet area of your home. Arrange in the room a soft area to rest
upon. Begin to freeze every part of your body until it is as still as a corpse. This includes
your hands, eyes, mouth and facial expressions. You should not go to sleep or allow
yourself to enter ramblings of thought, but focus and concentrate on the stillness and
silence around you.
Try to persist with this method for a long period of time, keeping a journal based on this
and other magickal training, studies and accomplishments. The magickal journal is a
powerful tool and record, presenting insight into the great, vast subconscious and a record
of the world of dreams. Try to keep two journals, a dream book and a general magickal
record containing plans,exercises, accomplishments, astral contacts, rites, etc. This will
aid in your personal development and the techniques in which you employed as a part of
your day to day system. It is during this time in which you practice frozen silence that
you will be able to lay a foundation for astral control, shape shifting, dream control and
fully exploring the functions of your human body.
23
24
Yoga
Yoga is the process of controlling the body at all levels. This requires a large amount of
mental and physical discipline which, when developed, will provide a tremendous
reservoir of magickal energy within the practitioner.
To develop the mind and spirit so that one may work magick it is necessary to control all
parts of the body and brain. The greatest path of self control is through Yoga. It is also
the most difficult for the individual who is new to this path. The magickian who seeks the
mastery of the self will no doubt be aligned with Yoga and the levels of control it teaches.
There is actually no way to study yoga, to fully understand it one must practice and
employ it for the advancement of the
self. Yoga is very demanding for excitable and energetic types, but with persistence
implementing its techniques, control can be developed quite quickly.
There are numerous levels to the different techniques and disciplines of Yoga, all of
which are equally significant in their benefits and developments of strength. Asana
(posture and control of body in frozen silence); Pratyahara (control of the mind on
detailed levels); Dharana, (control of thoughts, can be very disturbing as it makes you
more conscious of the level of 'noise' in the mind).
It is during this that the magickal will is tested, created and sadly more often, destroyed
before it is built again. I have had many associates quit the magickal path because of the
rigors of training, and the experiences involved. I am not surprised that people are broken
by the path, since the shadows, if not explored and understood, can overpower and
destroy the mind.
During Dharana you will want to focus on a single thought for hours and take mental note
how many times your mind ACTUALLY wanders, this can prove to be a difficult
exercise as you have to learn the necessity of controlling the mind on two levels- focus
and understanding, vision and will. All of these can prove a frustrating experience. Do
not be deterred, a serious student will learn to overcome such an obstacle over time and
triumph.
Controlled breathing is very important as astral energy can be transferred this way, also
magickal will is often assisted by controlled breathing techniques. The student should
spend several months learning to control his/her breathing and posture. This will prove
beneficial in daily life also, as disruptive events will be less unbalancing, and the
unruffled mind will be able to respond more effectively to unexpected occurrences.
Karezza
24
25
Karezza is a form of sexual magick, involving building up and controlling sexual drive
for transferring to magickal purposes. It is used to charge a particular wish, or focus
energy and bring it into manifestation in a specific form. Karezza is an ancient technique
which requires an immense amount of control and concentration. It may include auto-
erotic methods (masturbation) which are implemented to reach the point of orgasm and
shortly before the sorcerer stops and focuses instead upon the symbol of their intention.
Once this stage is complete the sorcerer can enter a dream state in order to project the
ideal envisioned. Karezza
produces exceptional results
which can provide an
immense power base within
the self. The practice itself
also teaches discipline,
control and mental strength.
The essence of Karezza is
that once orgasm is denied
then this rampant energy
which the sorcerer is
controlling may, during
vision or dream, be fulfilled
in another desired area. This
method can also be used to
contact a succubus or incubus
and is a very useful technique
for purposes of evocation and
invocation.
Da’ath
Da’ath is one of the zones of
the Qabalistic Tree of Life, a
great void which is defined as
the Abyss. The Abyss or zone
of Da'ath is best understood
as the dimension from which
all begins or manifests, we
are but spawn of the Abyss.
This is the Christian ‘hell’,
evil only by the ignorance
and lack of understanding concerning the nature of Da’ath.
The world, nature and the universe as we know it are indifferent to suffering, the same as
the Abyss. All things manifest from this dimension yet nothing remains within its favor,
all returns to it by the way of the grave at some point. Life recycles itself. This can also
be defined as what Spare termed “the Neither-Neither”. It should also be pointed out that
25
26
To attain this state one must reach a black out point when the mind goes beyond the point
of conception, of when nothing matters and all is unintelligible. This is when one
assumes the Death Posture, the flight of the self in ecstasy during which nothing exists,
you literally “step outside yourself”. When the individual enters the Abyss there is no
concept of the self, there is no form or matter in this state. It is during this state that one
can inaugurate or enflesh the intense desires, whatever they may be, during a state of
forgetting the self. This is the direct communication with the subconscious, the
“delivering of the letter” if you will.
The sorcerer who dives through the Abyss and acts as an avatar for its power keeps the
spirit bound to the earth, he or she escapes the recycling for an amount of time. Many
memories of a previous life are lost in the traumatic act of death; only the strong willed
even emerge with some essence of their power source intact. It is often when the greatest
shocks and traumas are inflicted, when the exterior and ego built ‘selves’ are stripped
away that the true power source, the core of life is revealed as it really is. Aleister
Crowley often changed his image, assuming different appearances, guises and so on.
There is a reason and purpose for such actions, for how can one understand the various
avenues and different paths of life if one stays trapped inside one particular ego? The
sorcerer who is able to uphold the strength and character of self through will is able to
master his or her own universe. He or she can live as they will, creating or destroying as
they wish, and relishing all that makes life worth living.
This is why change is a wonderful thing, why the dancing Egyptian God Besz is a chief
symbol of the sorcerer, because the form is constantly changing and evolving, each act a
religious movement of life and joy. Even more to the sorcerer’s benefit is that in modern
society change is an accepted part of life. This means we can move behind the scenes, do
our will and not be harassed for our ‘different’ or ‘strange’ behavior, save the magickian
is not running about hurting others.
Da’ath can be opened by the words “Zazas, Zazas, Natsatanada Zazas” (words that are
said to have been used by Cain and Adam to open the gates of hell.) and explored through
the Death Posture. The sorcerer who would enter the Abyss must be pure of mind and in
harmony with his shadow or hidden self.
The greatest obstacle of the Abyss is the demon Choronzon, whom the sorcerer must pass
in order to enter the Abyss. Choronzon is considered a demon due to it’s non - form and
devouring nature. It is a vampire spirit, awaiting the moment to enter the subconscious
and destroy it from the inside out. Once Choronzon has laid hold, it keeps its hold until
death and beyond.
26
27
Choronzon must be banished once it is passed through when great vampiric rites are
conducted, such a demon should not be let linger, nor any communication be granted due
to the lying and false nature of the essence. Choronzon seizes upon every point of the self
which is confused, in conflict, sick or twisted. It can take and build upon any form of
hate, self-pity, depression and madness. This is why the sorcerer who takes this path must
be well disciplined and of a sound mind.
Da’ath is the zone where vampyre phantoms, shades, ghosts and demonic spirits dwell.
The necromancies of the night side of earth are channels from which the Qlipoth emerge.
All morbid desires and acts which fester in the human mind are fed into Da’ath and the
Qlipoth, for which exploration one must possess the highest mental and psychic strength.
27
28
Such spirits can be controlled, and are often servitors of the most willful sorcerer. Once
their purpose is fulfilled however, it is wise to banish or destroy them to save the ill
effects afterwards. No Qlipothic spirit, vampire or not, should be employed under any
circumstance for matters of helping another, for it is not of their nature. Such wraiths may
be used as avatars of personal power but do not expect this to be an easy task.
Da’athian spirits, if controlled and evoked properly, are useful for certain divinations and
vampiric explorations beyond the mind, as subconscious guides and servitors for
destruction, attack and defense, or in some species of sexual workings. Within such
sexual sorcery, such as Succubus/Incubus evocation, beware of the obsessions that may
occur; they provide the most balanced yet the most dangerous approach to such work.
Many of the sorceries of the human lineage are descended from the great Abyss known as
Da’ath, the stronghold of esoteric knowledge. When diving into Da’ath take a great astral
weapon, as strong as your will and as swift as your mind. Great afterlife survival
techniques which have been discovered and remain as possibilities were obtained from
the flight through the mouth of Choronzon, through the Abyss.
Qlipoth
The Qliphoth/Qlippoth is a Hebrew term for the region of the astral plane where demons,
vampires, ghouls and other sinister spirits dwell. Most of these beings, according to
Kenneth Grant are "habitations of the phantom forms generated by sexual desires and
morbid cravings constantly Produced by dwellers of earth." (8)
Within the realm of the Qlipoth, subsisting through the plane of Da'ath, is the greatest
depth of Night where the Great Red Dragon sleeps. Among the coils of the dragon are the
shells of the dead, the spirits or lower demonic energies which flow between the dreams
of the serpent. These demonic forces must not be trusted, however but controlled and sent
forth to work your will. The vampiric sorcerer will over time, gain enough psychic
strength to open the Qliphoth and begin to transverse the current of this shadow astral
plane. This means also the Lion Trainer will be sleeping with the Lions. Such Daemonic
forces should be dealt with carefully in this aspect, for the formula is of the blackest
magick. From this region many vampiric elementals can be evoked to do the sorcerer's
bidding, however the price is generally the gift of the sorcerer's own blood. The Qlipoth
are energy currents which spring from Da’ath, which lies within the heart of the Desert of
Set (9).
28
29
Tunnels which exist through Da’ath are where most of the Qlipothic demons manifest.
Please note that this is not a 'Satanic' plane, these entities are negations of the self in its
primal aspect. Such spirits, whose existence is not earth based but extra terrestrial, have
no conception of the meaning of 'Satanic'.
Exploring these tunnels opens wide the doors of perception, as hinted in the theses of
magick, and therein lie in wait devouring spirits and demons. It is the task of the inspired
individual to pass by these denizens of the deep, and by doing so discover the true
essence of their inmost self.
INVOCATION-
To call spirits and energies/Godforms inward to gain anthropomorphic associations or the
common and deeper attributes of the spirit. In the act of Invocation, the spirit is absorbed
by the “I” or self, in a Luciferian/Sethian sense, the sorcerer becomes or develops from
the spirit called inward. Invocation is the direct subconscious communication with the
forces of ‘outer’ and ‘inner’ planes of being. As with the Sabbat, both Infernal and
Celestial, one enters the ecstasy trance of the inbetween (inbetween the dreaming and
waking world) to emerge eventually as the Adversary, that Godform of both sides.
EVOCATION –
To summon or call spirits outward, often projected into a circle or area from which you
may bind such forces or spirits to a specific area. In Goetic Sorcery, the individual
summons or evokes a spirit or energy into a circle, when the sorcerer is satisfied; they
banish/release the spirit so it may leave. Evocation can be the sorcerer summoning or
calling forth the darkest aspects of the self, i.e. atavisms, to Will them to manifest
visually or anthropomorphically outside of the self. This is what Austin Spare called
‘Atavistic Resurgence.”
29
30
SORCERY-
The primal and illuminated act of focusing and controlling energy. The individual who
practices sorcery does so generally by means of Will-Desire-Belief, to binding energy of
spirit into a focused and controlled object. The term ‘encircling’ refers to sorcery. The
individual who ‘encircles’ energy, shadow or spirit is creating and willfully imposing
change either internally (High Sorcery, Magick) or Externally (Goetic or Low Sorcery).
30
31
invoking vampire spirits, the use of your blood (you being the sorcerer) will already
create a binding effect on them in order to actually containing or absorbing them. There
are those however who would use the harm of others to their benefit, which makes such
individuals very dangerous and untrustworthy. They who would operate in such ways
have no honor and should be avoided.
Sigils are the language of the subconscious. It has been mistakenly thought that sigils are
letter combinations in the style of Austin Spare. This is not correct by any means. Just as
magick is personal to the individual, and each sorcerer has his or her own personal
system, so it is with the methods of sigil magick. One must approach sigils as one would
approach art. To create a sigil one must align one’s natural talent to their own brand of
sigil making. Sigils can be any thing, a painting, music, drawing, letter symbols, pictures,
anything which is associated as a symbol in which the original meaning could be lost and
forgotten, this is the key to success in such work. The conscious mind must forget what
the significance of the sigil is in order for the subconscious to absorb it and set it’s
fleshing in motion. Never forget that sigils MUST be aligned with your natural ability,
not just a system devised by another.
The most significant sigil of Vampyric Sorcery and the vampire current is that of the
Varcolaci or Devilcosm Seal. The sigil, which is composed of an inverted pentagram
carried/connected by two varcolaci vampire spirits. The inverted pentagram – also called
the star of Set - represents the crossing into the Abyss, for it is by mastering the upright
and inverse pentagram that the magickian truly evolves. The union of the two Varcolaci
represents them as the doors of the gate of the Abyss, the entry to the astral plane of
knowledge as well as the Qliphoth, being the astral abode of vampires and other spirits.
The bat like wings of the Varcolaci represent the powers of astral flight and the nightside
current which exists through their waves of sight. The pentagram itself is the symbol of
reverse entry via the Death Posture, in which initiation of the witch is accomplished. The
31
32
pentagram is the key to the Abyss and the shadow spectrums of the mind. The Varcolaci
sigil was received via trance by Blood Moon Asuar (10), after a careful description from
the author of what he received via the astral plane. This was received and consecrated in
1994 e.v. and has been used in the vampiric current since.
The Devilcosm (another name for the Varcolaci Sigil) is as much a symbol for the Left
Hand Path as it is a gateway towards the dark realms of night and fog. Through this
seeming mirror, you will be able to assume the wraith form so described in the
Devilcosm sigil itself. Through these gates, the Queen of the Sabbath, Lilith gives you
the knowledge to BECOME.
The rituals contained in this grimoire each involve the use of the sigil. This feature
derives from Coven Nachttoter (Coven Maleficia , a magickal base in which the author
received the setting to write this book during the Babalon Working of December 1998
e.v.) where this sigil was present in all night side path workings. Sigils permit an
individual or collective to focus upon one strong and consistent desire, by the medium of
graphic symbol. Sigils are not necessarily any one persons creation, however they should
be complimentary to the individual's own natural ability and interest. The personal nature
of sigil workings is present in the sorcery of Austin Osman Spare. Sigils are not designed
and implemented for the purpose of the sigil, as many has done ignorantly. Sigils are an
extension of an individual's own personal preferences and talent. Both practical method
and actual intent depend intensely on what is correct for the individual, what feels right
and what they can achieve viable results with. This is a call to break down the near-there
attitude over which dogma presides, imposing itself on all levels. Separation from such
limits is necessary for the continuation of real personal progress on whatever level.
Tiamat is also an aspect of Leviathan, the primordial angel of the deep, the crooked
serpent that devours its own tail. As the Red Temple opens the Luciferian Gateway of
death and renewal of ones own Witchblood.
The work of the Red Temple is of life and joy, the sinister and the brilliant. Light and
dark. Sexual congress with a partner is a significant and fulfilling aspect of this work.
The awakened Kundalini or Fire Snake can be channeled within both individuals
achieving a major focus and build up of energy. Strong bonds can be created through
such work, although a dangerous focus of energy between the two leaves each vulnerable
to the other. A combination of the magick of the Red and the Black Temple is a sexual
tantric work which involves the use of bones, ashes, blood and sexual fluid (of both
32
33
individuals given as a gift to a Loa or spirit) towards the building of "invisible walls" or
creating protective energies/elementals. This aspect is explored through sexual union, for
either the creation of a moonchild or the calling of the dead. This ritual, which includes a
consecration of a sigil covered in the blood and combined sexual fluids should be given
power by a focus of energy.
Vampire spirits apart from incubi & succubi should be mostly avoided in these rites
unless the spirit is absorbed or channeled through your partner. Beware your
developments, discipline is of the utmost importance, lest the sorcerer become trapped or
obsessed by psychic vampires or demonic elementals. The difference between elementals
(not the same for Spirits who often have will essence as well) and the sorcerer is the
WILL itself. Elementals have no will and are collections of energy. The individual must
control and channel such patterns if he or she is to be successful in the aspects of sorcery.
Such contact with the dead and other spirits can be done in a temple or ritual chamber.
One should prepare by reaching a relaxing state of which you seem to almost float from
your own flesh. In this preparation incense should be employed, as well as music
(essential) which represents the mood of the rite, and is appropriate to the forces evoked.
This work may be done either solitary or with one other person, depending on your goal.
Then a calling should be made, an evocation following which you will begin (if
successful) to feel a slight bit of wind and cold air. Do not let fear overtake you as I have
seen happen with many first time "ghost hunters", keep your wits about you and stay
strong in this. Feel the spirits as the float about you.
33
34
One should prepare for the dream by lighting the candle and focusing intensely upon the
Varcolaci sigil. As you are lying down, relaxed, feel yourself begin to enter the
pentagram... feel the wind blow violently in your mind as you enter... you feel naked and
alone. This is natural. A description follows based on one of my travels. Detail is kept by
actually recording the occurrence immediately after waking. "Once going through the
sigil you will be in a dark plane with no obvious grass or ground. Trees are twisted and it
seems that at all times you are able to
float above and below what could be ground. Upon looking closely at the trees – which
are twisted as writhing ghosts - you notice the roots which are extensive and elongated
are held by nothing but air. They do not move, save for the spectral wind, which
whistles through the skeletal branches.
In the distance you hear moaning cries, or chants which seem to be projected by a
haunting collection of voices, each seeming so far away yet growing near you. There is
no light, save from a crescent moon which is below you and not above. The sky is
reversed and the moon is blood red. Above you see nothing but sheer impenetrable
darkness, nothingness... fear is twisting it's gray hand across your throat and you seek to
control yourself. Will must preserve you. In the air you notice several spirals of what
appears to be white and gray funnel clouds, like a small tornado... this funnel cloud seems
to project a kind of screeching sound, which disappears again into the night. You feel
strangely at home
in this place, wondering if you have known it before.
You see a black tower in the distance, from which the sound of wolves and female voices
chanting a mantra grows as you approach. You are floating yet at times walking on
something you are not quite aware of. When fear takes over for a fraction of a second you
feel your walking slowed. Only when will takes over can you relax and float. You make a
mental note not to let panic overtake you. The wolves howl in the distance, and a blood
34
red moon, seemingly marked with a deaths head, grows large below you. As you draw
near the tower three black shapes approach you. You take note and with control of will
halt in your steps. Your first impulse is to run, however you know you would almost
certainly lose your bodily control, and movement would diminish almost to the point of
stopping. Dreams always operate by the reversal of laws which form the basis of your
reality web.
One of the shapes takes a seeming female form. You cannot tell many of her features
only that she is molded from the desires within your mind. Wolves come and surround
the three shadows and yourself in a large circle. The wolves stare intensely, gray fur,
large salivating mouths with yellow fangs and burning crimson eyes...
The female says nothing as she approaches you, neither do the two remaining faceless
shadows. You feel an enveloping chill as she draws near you. It is your assumption based
on what could be deceptive body-language that she is welcoming you, yet warning you of
what you have entered. You feel no regret beyond the heart felt fear which still clings to
your very essence.
The Vampire sorceress reaches out with a shadow like black arm. Instead of human
fingers they are black and leather like, the skin stretching thinly over bony, talon like
fingers. The ends have black five inch finger nails, like claws. You find this sexually
stimulating in some dark and twisted way, only wishing she would run them across your
naked body, letting blood flow as a gift to the Red Dragon. Samael is closer. She takes
your arm and slices a large wound in your arm... she then draws the blood from the cut
into her mouth... you hear an increase of moaning and screams, mantras and howls from
the lustful onlookers and from the tower. The lady drinks from you only briefly and then
withdraws. She draws a razor sharp talon across her black chest,
from which a stream of blood floats from the wound towards your mouth.
With one talon she grips the back of your head and draws you into the stream of blood,
all the way to the wound on her chest. You feel cold and yet so warm as you drink - the
lust building within you as you feast from the wound of the vampire. As you feel lust
taking close hold of you a violent jerk wakes you from your travel. You are back in your
chamber, sexually aroused and hungering for much more. Be patient, you have a lifetime
of pleasure awaiting you - both upon the astral plane and the physical one. Remember,
discipline is of highest importance in this path."
35
36
obtaining orgasm if you so wish. The sigil should be burnt and tossed to the wind if
possible. For instance, if it was your desire "To meet a
vampiric succubus in dreams" you would draw a sigil with various elements which
represent
that desire, such as a mantra of words like Ndeamn Smccvius, this would then be
chanted over and over. You would first start slowly, pronouncing each syllable until you
are completely comfortable with it and then speed up the pace of repetition. The mantra
should be spoken loudly and softly, total control over the sentence is what you are after.
The mantra should be chanted throughout the sigil rite, until you destroy the sigil that was
created with those words and symbols which represent your desire. The conscious must
forget the sigil in order for the subconscious to begin working towards it. This is the
primary reason of destroying it.
Before you would attempt to involve yourself in vampiric or darkside sorcery, seek to
master the foundations of Holy Magick, and ceremonials aimed at contact with your Holy
Guardian Angel, or higher self. This is a strength building point which you can not pass
by. Ceremonial magick is present within vampirism only as a choice for group
gatherings. The purpose of Coven Maleficia and the current aligned is not to hold group
gatherings and become a social event. However when ceremonials are employed they are
a focus and celebration of power, will and strength. The most significant ceremonial is
"Towards the Vampiric Godhead" (12) which is a
Mass of vampiric god forms and energy. Each magickian will take the god form of a
certain vampiric archetype which represents something of his/her self. This can prove
most interesting in the aspect of astral blood. Ceremonials are also called upon for a great
purpose or astral blood
sacrifice. Each God form would sacrifice an amount of collected astral energy into what
is known as a Psychomantieon. A Psychomantieon or Necromantieon is a mirror that is
36
37
used as the gateway towards the astral world. It is also an object used in the Black
Temple workings as a gateway to the dead. Do you recall the legend of Lilith living in the
mirror and the various vampiric tales of beings communicating through mirrors?
Vampiric god forms exhale large amounts of astral blood towards this
Psychomantieon/Necromantieon until near exhaustion. This coincides with a sigil
representing the groups desire. Upon the sacrifice the Magus would destroy the sigil in
the flames of the ceremony. Each member at some point afterwards feels resurgence in
physical strength and power.
Vampiric Strengths
Vampiric strengths closely resemble those of the magickian who focuses upon the self
and seeks to progress and evolve towards a new type of individual. Vampires, over a
period of time through study and practice, are able to be more in tune with psychic
phenomena, such as communion with spirits, astral energy and other vampiric contact. It
is not unnatural for a learned vampire to sense the approach of another awakened one - it
is all a case of the opening of the mind. I do certainly recommend a building of astral
walls, of the "Black Iron Walls" (13) which will act as a protection from unwanted spirits
and enemies. Once erected, with Will, sweat and blood it is very difficult for another to
trespass these walls. The vampiric strength of astral shape shifting is through dream
manipulation and awakening. The vampire who is able to alter his/her form in the dream
is an awakened avatar of the great vampiric spiral force.
For if opened one is able to take on the personal and psychic attributes of the god form
they most assume. The wolf offers speed, the bat offers flight, excellent night vision (in
bat assumed forms on the dream plane, from personal experience and others testimony,
you are usually able to see perfectly compared to the bats' own lack of eyesight.) and a
heightened predatory instinct involving the smell for blood and the speed of quick attack.
The beast-wolf form is excellent for sexual congress and demonic awakenings, exploring
the hidden aspects of the self on numerous
levels. Smoke and mist are ideal for observing and surrounding or positioning near
desired
prey or enemy. Many other forms are possible, depending on the individual preference of
the sorcerer.
Dream Sorcery
The dangerous side of astral projection. The discipline of dream magick is based on the
affinity of darkness and the spirit. The spirit or astral double make take form and travel
throughout the night and it’s world (The Qlipoth, twisted dimensions, etc.). The dangers
of such journeying arise from the point at which the individual is seeking to let loose of
his or her own flesh towards the web of dreams. Nightmares often occur during this
undertaking, which may be only the beginning of one’s pain on the mental level.
Nightmares are the playground of Choronzon and his minions, and only through the
disciplined control of the psychonaut can one take from the night side or dark force, feed
37
38
the self upon it and obtain strength and a dauntless spirit. Dream Sorcery holds numerous
paths by which one is able to proceed. The aspect of predatory hunting or attack is one
such that may be undertaken. The key to mastery in all these paths is control and focus.
CHAPTER THREE
Witchcraft and the Luciferian Path
Witch Blood can be described as the essence of the gnosis, but a step beyond this mental
aspect. Gnosis is defined as an extension of magickal trance, from which the mind stops
all mental communication. Your mind becomes sharp and singled into one internal
concept of action. This is called by Buddhists as samadhi, the state of mental in-between
thinking which allows the subject to be united with the larger picture. Gnosis is the state
of magickal fountains of energy, all of this exists in the inner core of your very being.
38
39
Witch Blood is a state of gnosis but so interlocked with the subconscious that it stays
with you throughout your life, a fine point of living which is enriched by not only Self-
Love but also unlocking the Nine Angles of Dream Mastery.
Witch Blood is the mental state of what would be called genetic engineering. You seek
the Luciferian Tradition, the dark of the mind and thus you open full your mind and allow
the Pale Hecate to step in-you invite this archetype. By doing this alone you are standing
alone within the circle of self-love and empowerment by your mind alone. Could this be
the ‘short-map’ to immortality? Spiritual immortality is not ignored within the writings,
but within this grimoire a standard study and road map for the awakenings of Witchcraft
are presented and often hinted at.
Witch Blood is the gateway to the magickal current within each individual. Witch Blood
is not an actual hereditary stream or genetic code, but a mental gateway and gift bestowed
by one who conceals the nature of the self and self-love, the discipline needed to conquer
the state of being.
Some Christian based beliefs describe those of the path of the Adversary, or Shaitan
(Lucifer) as demon-possessed. They state that we are conversing with demons and harbor
relations with the devil. This is completely TRUE! We are of the Adversary, the Devil, or
Shaitan. Its voice speaks to us through our dreams, through our very lives according to
our will. This IS Witch blood.
Anyone who has dedicated the self to evolution and the path of Sorcery may become one
of the Witch Blood, one who desires it so and is willing to walk through the caverns of
darkness to seek the light of self! The Witch Blood is the awakened or obtained gnosis of
inspiration, that from which the subconscious mind is in tune with. All abilities
developed with witchcraft are brought forth through Sethanic knowledge obtained
through the receptive mind. Gnosis is Witch Blood except this state always remains
within the subconscious; it is a light no one wants to go out!
Witchcraft is the direct descendent of ancient shamanic cultures and practices, which has
flourished with humanity since the beginning of time. The essence of witchcraft is of two
basic aspects, being the discovery of the self and the unity with nature, and the mastery of
sorcery and a balance of both dayside and darkside practices. The connection between
Witchcraft and the Zos Kia Cultus is more profound than one may first believe. The
sorcery of Zos Kia Cultus has its roots in the Luciferian Tradition of which Austin Spare
was heir by Witch Paterson.
The Sabbat of the Witches is also misunderstood to some extent and there is a need to
further present theories and actual path workings which may open a new way of thinking
concerning this subject.
The Witches' Sabbath is a gathering in dream, not the physical gathering that it once was
thought to be (Unless a conscious gathering is agreed upon as it is often done). The Witch
who wishes to attend does so primarily in the astral or dream body. No babies were or are
harmed, no killing is done. The Sabbat is a great appeal to the senses and a rejuvenation
of the spirit. Those who actually attend the Sabbath are often refreshed, happy and more
39
40
thoughtful of others. The Sabbath is a celebration and channeling of the powers of night
and the rejoicing of what one is and what one can be.
The actual name SABBATH is derived from the old French verb ‘s'esbattre’, translating
‘to frolic'. When twilight falls and the shadows become evident, all will transverse into a
side of night.
When our heads rest upon the ground our spirits rise through the dream and the world of
the night side. The Witch-cult exists in numerous points of the Earth, we walk silently
among all and harm not one unless provoked. We are shadow and the essence of the
green earth is our being.
The witch blood emanates deep within the subconscious of each sorcerer, awaiting the
moment the wizard opens the lunar current towards Atavistic resurgence (2). The
Vampire spirit too exists in dream and so with it we shall walk, in joyous brotherhood
and sisterhood.
The eight earthly Sabbaths' are as a form and focus for the dreaming rite, in which those
of witch blood meet in ecstasy.
The earthly Sabbat is as a gate and purification zone whose purpose is to create the astral
grounds in which the meeting is to take place. The following rites may be conducted with
very few people, be it two or ten individuals, fulfilling each members dedication and
desire.
The Sabbat of the Witches exists in the context of dream control and breaking over into
the astral world, where all is based on desire and will. The manifesting of day side
activities are brought forth through the dreaming - darkside - aspects of sorcery and
magick.
A particularly memorable event when I attended an astral Sabbat and became fully aware
of the current in its witch-blood origin. In such a situation, you feel as though the dead
are speaking to you... directing you towards the Luciferian Mysteries. I was self-
initiated, being a natural loner and finding my greatest access of the current was when
alone or with one other individual, enabled to focus and receive the spark of inspiration.
I had prepared well for the night, shaping a wonderful mood that was befitting such
dreaming. An ointment was prepared and a small amount smeared in the form of a sigil
representing the astral conclave. I was robed in black, after a relaxing bath. Candles
illuminated the house and the sole company of my cat gave me yet further inspiration.
The woven web of night is one that can guide your every movement, to every urge the
web will respond. The Spider and Serpent that exist in the night side are of symbolic
nature, being of reversion and double senses, of speed and accuracy.
I focused upon my star, the inverted pentagram, meaning ‘Life and Mind’ and made
proclamations to the Lord of the Sabbath, being the Adversary or the shadow form of
Lucifer.
Candle lit, burning black in the darkness of the chamber I whispered before the flame:
“By the embrace of death’s sleep in life, Thanatos hearken my swift flight. Of the Devil’s
sight, which views the webs of night to come and the freedom of the fields, may thy
40
41
beauty be as my gift. By the thorns which tear the waking flesh and guards our great
hidden place, be my flesh in night and astral waking, I shall emerge. I seek the Blood of
the Witches Sabbat conclave, so that Lilith shall kiss my ever earthly wounds. Joy and
pleasure, by the Skull and Blade I shall emerge!
Eko Sabbatium, Eko Hecate, Eko Lilith…unbound and fly!”
My pace was decided by my desire to join the conclave, to enter this Sabbath of dream. I
was guided into a great forest, and my flight was over the trees. I was drawn to a seeming
crossroad deep within the forest, clear of trees and filled with shapes and hags. They had
assembled to fulfill the desires of the flesh and to further inspire the witch blood within
our astral veins. A great fire, spinning and spitting shapes and faces, grew in fever. This
seemed to act as a gate towards the great rites and Loa of the Petro (3) tradition. Women
who danced around the fire would consistently shift their shapes becoming alternately
hags or beautiful young women, or forms between both. Many would take the form of
animals, howling or flying around this great astral Sabbath. Many of the shapes were
taking pleasure in each other, the dancing of demonic shapes and the chanting of unseen
voices through me into an explosive frenzy. I could feel the beast come to the surface,
fully aware of predatory instincts and emotions not normally explored on a conscious
level.
Beyond the fire stood what I termed the 'Black One', the Goat headed figure, the living
sigil of desire. Flames burned from its black and green claw like hands, fire of blue and
red. My attention returned to the ecstasy of the congregation. I suddenly began to fade
and everything beyond this was blank. I awoke the next morning, feeling refreshed and a
new sense of happiness flowed throughout my being. It must be understood that this
rising in astral or dream flesh may not be an easy task for all, some have a natural affinity
towards this while others must train and expand the mind through will. The essence of the
witch is of Hecate, or the moon. The joy and love for the night and the great, vast powers
of the mind. The training of the Sorcerer is a lonely and difficult path, a great reward for
those who can remain.
41
42
To Know
Knowledge is key and central to belief systems and advanced techniques of magick.
Words tend to define a common or resurgent pattern of thought and action. Many of the
techniques we have worked with whether of the Sethian Witchcraft, the Zos Kia Cultus
or Vampiric Sorcery are based upon images rather than mere words, However I sought to
lay them out in a context which can be discernible. Once knowledge is obtained it is up to
the individual as to whether it should be freely given.
Knowledge of the self is fundamental to your ability to practice this art of the hidden. The
statement "Know Thyself" is significant in that therein lies the key to personal power. It
has been said this is not accurate since the self is ever changing. The key essence of this
statement is that even though the exterior and first layer of the interior is always
changing, the basis of the individual, learned through childhood and teenage years
remains within the ever changing persona. Only those who have extreme imbalances such
as personality disorders (ie multiple personalities) are unable to control significant
change. The sorcerer is an avatar of the magickal current which is embodied through
him/her. The significant and essential 'trick' is to realize that the magickian is the
manifestation of that particular current of energy. The traditions of which I speak are
aligned and/or parallel with the 93 current, known as Thelema which is Greek for Will.
The witches’ oath ‘to know’ is a symbol of retention of knowledge gained in life.
To Will
The Will of the sorcerer is the strength of magick and witchcraft, to change his/her
surroundings according to the desire held. Without the Will magick is not and holds no
power. Focus and belief issue forth an independent view and strength which none can
touch. The Astral Sabbat for instance is unobtainable for those without the desire to
journey to it, to become with the spirits of the dead. The Will is the direction and internal
focus which guides him/her through their life. The True Will or ‘Knowledge and
Conversation of the Holy Guardian Angel’ implies knowing the essence of thyself and
the direction it should lead one in life.
To Dare
To dare is to test the methods of sorcery, to push the self to the limits both mentally and
physically. This is the essence of knowledge and the building of individual strength. To
pursue that which could invoke a hidden mechanism within the brain to further advance
the individual power is always implied. That which inspires you is the fountainhead of
the Gods, to dare the methods of belief and change as the spirit guides you. To go beyond
all physical limits and mental obstacles is to instinctively pass beyond and face any thing
which would further develop and strengthen the self. Fear pushes the true individual, the
very pulp of it all to the surface and therefore can be most useful in discovering the
hidden obstacles which could hinder you in a dire situation.
42
43
To Keep Silent
Secrecy is the honor of the Sorcerer, the very essence of the genetic make up which
defines who a person is. To taste of the ecstasy of Lilith and Hecate, to know of their
essence and to utilize it demands the responsibility of the individual who undertakes the
path. The oath of the sorcerer is everything that he/she is, to which they would ultimately
answer to. Kia is everything that is and that takes form. Shape it as you will with caution.
What is considered individual honor defines the methods that each person should and will
develop over the passing of time. This grand oath of the Magickian should not be taken
lightly, but is the foundation for the type of individual who should be successful upon the
gray path of Wizardry and power! Undertake the oath not for any group but for yourself
alone. If you decide to join a significant group for further ceremonial training then you
will already be ahead in technique by the development of character.

Initiation
Purpose and Symbolism
The dedication towards the magickal path is a far from simple task. Static symbolism and
the concocted trappings of magick are often no more than dogmatic sickness which can
lead to stagnant development. It is therefore suggested that the sorcerer is one able to
change their self and immediate surroundings as they see fit. Beliefs change with will and
desire, to suit the development of the individuals’ personality. I have known quite a few
gifted individuals, magickians and otherwise, who in the beginning present an immense
amount of potential. Many have fallen away into stagnant slumps of failure due to the
fact they never rise and develop as their beliefs change. I urge each one to progress in
their own time, while always keeping their integrity and individualistic strength. Imposed
moral codes are nothing but shackles for those without personal honor. An individual
who has a strong personal morality is able to break with moral dogma in order to find his
or her true essence of self. Once one has developed their own personal convictions and
developed a sense of honor it should be adhered to, save for a paradigm shift which
would render the sorcerer useless for true magick, being that of growth and progression.
Spirits will seek to destroy an individual with no honor. Unable to keep his or her word,
they fall prey to that which lurks forever in the shadows of the subconscious.
The initiation into the Luciferian Witchcraft is based on pushing the self, tearing away all
masks which make up the outside of the individual until the basic essence remains. This
is the way in which one begins building something strong and honorable. The essence of
the initiation is to dedicate the sorcerer to the life long path of magick, wherein a great
and beautiful flower awaits those of awakened and enlightened paths, the making of a
god or goddess. The self is god and goddess, since you ultimately answer to yourself.
Make your self happy before attempting to do so with others. Sabbat symbolism refers to
the serpent that sheds his skin, enabling the rise to the stars of midnight and dawn, and
entry to haunting mist and subterranean cavern. I stress the issue of Sorcery being
extremely personal to the individual who practices it. One who approaches magick as
impersonal will obviously be a failure since successful sorcery demands a strong and
focused conviction and frame of mind. One must understand that in order to create
change, significant knowledge and superior presence must exist to reach the desired goal.
Initiation into the Sethanic Mysteries is based on a loose but well practiced doctrine. The
witch requires an area of land, preferably wooded, in which solitude is possible. The
mentor or partner can be present to give direction and guidance. The witch has a small
bonfire going and is draped in traditional garments, hooded robes of white, appropriate to
the initiation process. Any other objects such as pentacles, sigils and other talismans can
be worn as well, depending on the individuals interest and alignment. The color white
represents purity, and humility or novice status. It is thus suited to those who have not
44
45
tasted the mysteries of light and dark. Thus it precedes the gray of the magickal current
that flows towards the toad’s moon, to which the night pays homage.
A dagger should be present, not an Athame per se but a virgin dagger with which you
could easily cut yourself. Once the banishing rite is complete, focus on your environment
and all of the beautiful and pleasant things around you, the forest, the wind, the animals
and the great darkness that approaches, the night in its full and magnificent splendor - the
great predators of night that fly about the shadowed skies. You are now in the bosom of
the great goddess, she of many names to whom all forms of life eventually answer. Face
this with great understanding of who you are and remember that, other than a vehicle for
the magickal current, you are nothing. All living things, great and small come and return
to dust, the great womb is a spawning ground of genetic isolation and personality. Time
is not our own yet it is within our control.
Knowing this, you are truly free to do what you will and live your life according to your
inner desire, independent of external manipulation. The purpose of initiation is to set you
upon the path so that the self may be revealed. The Holy Guardian Angel or True Will
shall manifest in time and with practice. While you a wait that moment however, push
forward and be one with the Path!
The circle should be cast outdoors if possible with a circle of flour, observe the four
watchtowers and focus upon all elements flowing fire, water, air and earth. The angelick
spirits of the aethyr which guard the foundations of human development shall observe
with your calling. They are the Watchers often revealed as demons. Know their nature
well.
The witch would now make a cut and draw blood, letting it drop into the soil. This would
be followed by the vision of a brilliant white light which is followed by the ascent of the
Morning Star, Lucifer. This symbolism is based on the essence of Lucifer in the pre-
Christian Gnostic status of Bringer of Light. The Gnostic method of overcoming the self,
becoming all and none. The initiate should then disrobe and begin traveling through the
forest, running, jumping until complete exhaustion overtakes their very being. This would
be a very close and early representation of what is the Death Posture, which the initiate
would undertake some time later. This is the manifestation of what is known as the
Green Man in witch cult tradition, an incarnation of nature and wisdom, perseverance and
silent wisdom. It is almost always the most silent who holds the most personal power.
45
46
The Sabbat exists in the Highest aspects of the mind (Luciferian) and the darkest
(Infernal), for instance a working for vigor, light and astral initiation one would seek the
Luciferian Sabbat. Any sexual relations in the Luciferian Sabbat would be a union with
another in a desired aspect of self – development. One who seeks to transform into a
beast, wolf, bat or daemonic form to seek sexual congress with the astral dead, ghosts or
demons of the mind or beyond would seek the Infernal Sabbat. The Infernal Sabbat is the
degree of solitary initiation via dream. The Luciferian Sabbat is a higher initiation of the
isolated self; very much like Azazel, who is revealed as Lucifer.
It was an early Latin writing scribed in 1460 on Arras witches presents a possible
dreaming image of the Infernal Sabbat –
“At the sabbats of the Vaudois, the presiding devil took aside the
neophyte and carried her off to one side of the grove, so that in
his own fashion he might make love to her and have carnal
knowledge of her; to whom he said maliciously that he would lay
her down on the ground supporting herself on her two hands and
feet, and that he could not have intercourse with her in any other
position: and that was the way the presiding devil enjoyed her,
because at the first sensation by the neophyte of the member of
the presiding devil, very often it appeared cold and soft, as very
frequently the whole body. At first he put it in the natural orifice
and ejaculated the spoiled yellowing sperm, collected from
nocturnal emissions or elsewhere, then in the anus, and in this
manner inordinately abused her….”
The text explains the possibilities of the experiences of the Dreaming Infernal Sabbat, to
be undertaken by Will of the Sorcerer or Witch. This ecstasy may be explored and used
to strengthen the initiation of the individual, and to allow communion with ones familiars
and servitors.
46
47
The ‘Kiss or Shame’ or Devil’s Kiss has represented since the medieval times the kissing
of the devil’s behind, or end quarters as a dedication to the Left Hand Path. The context
of defining this ritual dedication was propagated by the Church and was a charge often
thrown at those accused of witchcraft during these times.
While the essence of the Dark Sethanic Witchcraft is based on the principles of reversion
and descending to achieve and awakening, the devils hind quarters are not evoked to be
kissed. This is however, a powerful point of initiative symbolism representing the darker
aspects of Witchcraft.
The most significant point before beginning a life travel down the Luciferian Path is to
understand the symbolism which represents knowledge and wisdom. The Devils Mark is
but a glyph of what is considered awakening or the emergence of the primal atavism, and
its opposite being the serpent. The serpent, as represented throughout history means
wisdom and awakening, while to Christians is normally a symbol of evil.
The Osculum Infame should be practiced as either solitary or within the Coven you are to
join. It is essential and imperative that one is also knowledgeable and strong enough to
choose his or her coven in a business like, intelligent manner. Do not join simply because
it is the only one in your area, or because you like one of the members. Please in all
manners and means focus on the core of the Coven, what the skeleton represents. Many
simply seek fleshly pleasures yet have no concept or grasp on their responsibility. That
47
48
responsibility is to seek to perfect the self in all ways. It is also essential to enjoy yourself
and to harness your skills at both Black Magic and Holy Magick.
The history of the dedication was perpetrated by medieval witch hunters who in base
were impotent bigots, who could not understand nor accept the equality of women within
a cultural context. The Kiss was assumed into a feminine submission because that to take
up with the Devil, one should intimately know this spirit. The males, or heterosexual
males would in turn have congress with female succubi, or children of Lilith. The legends
of Nocturnal emissions carried on with these initiations or dream-induced congress.
48
49
Osculum Infame
The initiate’s dedication
To undertake the initiate’s oath of Witches, by the symbolic kiss of shame. The pact
should take place out in the open air, a wooded area with your altar being a stump or rock
near a large tree. Decorate the altar with the wood carving of the Witches
Sabbat/Luciferian Inverse Pentagram, or Sigil of Lucifer. Within the context of this tome,
Lucifer represents knowledge, wisdom and light. Baphomet, the God of Witches may be
adorned on altar as well. Octinimos, of the Witches Sabbat Goat is symbolic of masculine
and feminine pro-creation and knowledge.
The fire of Hecate and Lilith should be burned, robed or nude-the dedication towards the
forces of night and of the Witches Sabbat way. The dagger should be your Magickal
weapon of Air and Fire.
The Lord’s Prayer Backwards is utilized from Witches Sabbat lore to separate and release
the subconscious from the society bounds of western dogmatic or restrictive religions.
While the rite is sinister, to proclaim independence from ones restrictive conscious, this
has been cultivated from birth by our cultures. This is not a Satanic rite but one of
Luciferian provenance, the awakening from the sleepwalkers. This is to be noted, the
infant shaky steps of what will come after this. Throw your soul into the workings! Keep
in mind that Sathan/Satan is but the MIND, and is a great well of inspiration and
knowledge to those that may summon this force.
You should conduct this working on a full moon night, or at Noon when the Sun is high.
The inverted pentagram will be used in this rite; a traditional pentacle upon the altar will
do well. You will also need your anthame. The mirror in front of the altar should be
illuminated with black candlelight. The circle should be cast before the altar with the
billowing smoke of incense.
You will also want a quill and parchment paper, to scribe in black ink the oath which you
shall sign in the blood of your left hand.
The parchment should be written in something as the description given:
49
50
I now cut myself in the name of the dark bringer, Noctifer, the
Devil by Twilight. That eye sight grows in the weavings of dusk
and dawn. The Gates of the Dead are opened!
So it shall be!
Face now the altar, holding the dagger: widdershins around the circle and recite the
initiation words:
The conjuration of Asmodeus into the mirror and through the conscious is the first steps
of successful sorcery and witchcraft. Asmodeus is a God of sorcery and dark or nightside
earth based magick, as is Belial within these arts. One will affirm both spirits as well as
Lilith.
The first will be the Yezdic peacock angel, Shaitan/Melek Taus. Let its form be under
Asmodeus, the son/husband of Lilith (as Samael in some Hebrew lore).
50
51
By the Full Moon and the Sun which both illuminate the inner
space of my self, I grant this area protection and safety from that
which would devour me!
To kiss the hind quarters of the beast, which is to dive the great
mirror of darkness. Let the purity of this fall bless my awakening.
No longer shall my sight be limited in the tunnels of the dead.
Sight gives wisdom which breeds power. I shall know of this by
action and experience! Osculum Infame, the diving of the great
dark pit!
So it is done!
Do not destroy the oath of initiation; this will be placed in a special box with most of
your first-born workings. Bless the box under various Goetic spirits and keep hidden and
safe.
The Prayer of the Infernal Sabbat – The Devil’s Mark Part Two-
51
52
clay. It was this very spirit who brought unto us freedom and
divinity. By the Fire and blackened earth I deny the baptism of
the profane, that faith in dogmatic sickness of spirit be banished –
that the stain of guilt ridden spirituality be forgotten.
I go forth as the beast within the storm, as the man of the Black
Goat skin am I reposed in the Night, again shall I come forth in
light.
Let our Will be done!
52
53
Magickal Weapons
Magickal Weapons have long been considered great extensions of the Will.
While Magick does not require such objects to actually conduct workings they are highly
suggested for several reasons. The first and foremost being, a direction point of your
individual focus and a means or tool to achieve your Will. The traditional magickal tools
are significant to the witch as she/he will develop and build each as a part of the self,
extensions of your being.
Dagger-Athame (Will), Wand (Fire), Sword (Air) Chalice (Water) Pentagram (Earth).
Such instruments should be employed during invocations and evocations. Each element
would hold a significant point within the ritual undertaken. For instance, if one was
invoking Hecate the Pentegram used would be an inverse pentagram, such as the
Varcolaci Sigil, while one invoking Babalon would implement the Seal of Babalon,
known simply as the seven pointed star of Babalon. The Athame-Dagger, Wand, Sword
and Chalice would always be used. Ceremonial Training is the most demanding in the
advanced study and practice of a Warlock or Witch. Each Weapon should be consecrated
at the appropriate time. The Sword is blessed by Horus, or Baphomet, the Chalice by
53
54
Hecate or the Goddess of the Sea (Witch Queen), the Wand by Babalon or another Fire
associated Elemental or spirit, the Pentagram by the Green Man, Pan or the Witches
Sabbat Goat. Remember success is based upon an intent focus of Will and investment in
belief. Belief, Desire and Will are the power points of success in any working.
The Kangling is an instrument that may be implemented within your own temple. A
kangling is a Tibetan instrument in origin used to call the shades of the dead to feast on
your astral body. This is specifically used in pre-Buddhist Chud rites, which act as an
elevation of the spirit into the astral plane, Luciferian sorcery in nature.
The Kangling, made of the human thigh bone, is a shade evoking trumpet used in an
ancient ritual called “Cutting of the Ego” which meant Luciferian ascension through
disassociation. Primarily, the instrument was developed through the Bon Po period of
Buddhism.
If one works specifically with the shades or manes of the dead, especially within a
Witches Sabbat context, one may wish to obtain a Kapala for the Temple or Coven as
well. The Kapala is a human skull cap used within rituals as a chalice. In fact, one may
use both a Kapala and a consecrated chalice for the Cup of the Temple. The Kapala is
used as an offering bowl in Tibet, in certain tantric rituals spirits are summoned to feed
from the contents of the bowl. When filled with blood, the Kapala is called Ashrakapala,
and when filled with flesh is called Mamsakapala.
Human bones also serve as powerful ritual tools, especially within the path of the Black
Temple. While bones are connected as powerful fetish tools, they may also be employed
by the sorcerer as tools of ritual and controlling shades. One may bind demons or spirits
to each bone, specifically rib bones as they are shaped properly for using within a wand
type of method. It is possible to bind Goetic Demons or other spirits to each rib bone by
engraving with a sharp tool the sigil, using your own blood to bind it and a Goetic ritual
of evocation.
The Evocation Dagger is different in several aspects from the Anthame, which is the
primary tool of the witch. The Evocation dagger is used in rituals which involve the
creation, conjuration, binding or banishing of demonic forces. One would use the
Evocation Dagger in the rites of creating ngangas, fetishes, spirit pots, necromancy,
vampiric servitor creations and some Goetic workings. The Evocation Dagger should
resemble the nature of the rites of which you are working, for instance a jagged, cruel
looking blade. You witch name should be inscribed in Theban on the handle if able and
the knife should undertake the same consecration ritual that the Anthame will go under.
The Athame is the weapon of the Holy Guardian Angel, the Will itself. This blade should
represent the forces of Angelick guardians of which you should work through. Such will
lead you unto a positive flow of mental energy all the while understanding the beautiful,
and sometimes barbaric forces of darkness within you. This is the detailed seperation of
the Holy Guardian Angel and the Evil Genius, from which is described in the “Congress
cum Daemone” ritual of descending into the core essence of your opposite self. The
54
55
“Luciferian Magick” tome reveals much of the higher work beyond the foundations listed
here.
OPENING:
"I charge thee with the earth of the great god Pan!
I charge thee with the earth from which Belial walks!
55
56
Begin painting the Athame according to your taste.You may wish to paint sigils or
tailsmans or even God signs which hold significance to you. Once all is complete take the
Athame and intone:
"As the calls of Lilith are heard, to which Hecate looms forth
By the moon which hangs above I am childe of the Witch moon
of Blood
Held by an oath to the shadow, both Dawn and Twilight
By Desire, Will and Belief I mark the path of manifestation.
AMEN! So mote it be!"
The rite as described by Coven Maleficia is based within the gathering of shadows, the
elementals formed in magickal workings to protect the physical and spiritual body from
attack. This technique may be used to also clear the mind for the purpose of relaxation.
The shadows, the same of familiars are some part related to the dead, they may be long
forgotten shades which are attracted to the spiritual activity of your own magickal work.
They have since lost consciousness and the concept of “I”, thus proving useful in
workings of magick.
Summon them with blood and bones, sexual energy and the will sharp and focused. They
will respond and prove useful guardians while in the astral plane. They feed from our
56
57
lifeforce just as we absorb from the sacred Opfer. Never mind harm, they do not seem to
draw enough lifeforce to cause any alarm of challenge. These shades, if made malicious
by destructive black magick, may cause considerable harm to the intended victim, or
even seek havoc upon the caster. Be cautious. It is however mostly a chore to create and
empower such elementals that one would be focused for an extended period of time to
create such beings.
A traditional banishing ritual proves useful as it allows complete control and cleansing of
the individual who performs it. It also, just as anything within magick, must mean
something to the one performing it. This banishing ritual allows passage from shades into
our orbit if you will, while banishing unwanted mental aggravations or unwanted self-
created or imposed spiritual hindrances. It is also essential to perform at the beginning
and end the each rite, allowing the proper closing in such ceremony.
I. The Banishing
Facing the altar, located in the East, take the athame and make the sign of an invoking
pentagram, averse and envision a light emerge from the center of your being.
Facing the North, make the sign of the invoking pentagram averse, and envision the
graves of the earth opening forth and encircling you, protecting you from all outside
forms.
”By the light of Azazel, who brought to man and woman the
knowledge of the serpent, attend my being in the protection of the
kin of Witchblood!”
Facing the West, make the sign of the invoking pentagram averse, and envision the
waters circling you, forming great tempests with serpents and dragons seeking to devour
that which would attack you.
57
58
Facing the South, make the sign of the inverse pentagram, symbolizing the matter of the
flesh and the psyche which allows the spirit – god to emerge.
Before me Lucifer;
Behind me Shaitan;
On my right hand Belial;
On my left hand Leviathan;
For about me flames the Pentagram,
And in the Column stands the seven-rayed Star of BABALON-
LILITH!
Upon the altar a pre-created Nganga should be with you (creation of ngangas involves the
use of human and animal bones-called a fetish spirit-your blood, sigil, grave soil and
snake skin. This nganga will contain active fetish spirits related to the dead. You will use
items of the dead which may bring shades or manes of the dead which will allow you to
form from your own desire demon servitors of protection. One may fuse animal remains
with human to form half beast elementals, or shades that prove useful in defense. Do not
allow conversation of any kind with such created servitors, for that is the road of insanity.
Command and Will and allow no argument or discussion with such spirits.
Facing the nganga on the altar, take gravesoil and toss a small amount in the nganga.
Take then the vial of blood (of your own blood, nothing else.) and pour a small amount
on the skull of bones within the nganga.
The shade will feed from your astral body while you dream, giving it nourishment to
perform the duties of its creation. I have found such shades are forced away from the
body when you arrive back in the flesh.
58
59
The Witches Alphabet proves a powerful method of scribing ones own magical name on
ones instruments of the craft, or inscribing sigils (if you wish a simple means of creating
sigils). The Witches Alphabet, as it is known, is called Theban. Attributed to Honorius,
Theban is an ancient script of runes from which the sorcerers of old inscribed many of
their instruments and the inking of spells to hide from profane eyes.
Lilith
The Mother of the Succubus and of Night, Lilith is a symbol of night and magickal
power, Sorcery and Witchcraft. Her essence is that of Feminine strength and individual
focus. The connection of Lilith with the cult of Vampirism has been noted by many, for
through the Astral Plane this Goddess manifests on the Day Side as her fleshing ground.
Just as with any pagan goddess or god, Lilith is not entirely of dark nature, being known
as a protectress of mothers and children. The sacred bird of Lilith was the owl, one may
59
60
seek to invoke, or identify with the goddess Lilith through the dream assumption of the
owl form. Such experiments should prove insightful. Liliths name was suspected to have
derived from the Sumerian Babylonian Belitilli. One rather interesting connection is that
one of the 17 names of Lilith is actually KALI.
Kali
Kali is the Black Destroyer as well as nurturing mother. Often represented as a Black
Demonic Goddess, Kali stands atop her husband, Shiva, holding in her hands blades
dripping with blood, and upon her neck a necklace of human skulls. Kali is black because
all that transpires returns to her, she is the Abyss in it's feminine aspect. All time melts
into this Goddess. Kali is also life giving, a nurturing and loving mother, granting ecstasy
to those who would invoke her in the rites of Tantra, through which the sexual
combination of opposites set in motion the process of Creation. The union of Male and
Female with a magickal aim or focus presents an accessible window to the astral and
dream plane. Thus through OZ being PAN can desire become flesh. It is through the
divine Woman that the essence of Magick and Witchcraft is found. Those seeking beyond
this path will often miss it altogether, due to the consistent denial of ones' own feminine
or Lunar side which must be invariably joined with the Male or Sun aspect.
BABALON
The mysteries of Babalon do hold a significant modern point within some Witchcraft
covens or groups. We must first discover what Babalon was, is and is moving towards to
recognize this brilliant feminine flame within each man and woman.
Babalon is the Qabalistically restored spelling of the biblical Babylon, the great whore.
This goddess is in union with the Beast 666 in the book of revelation. Aleister Crowley
restored the Goddess to her aspect of holding the cup of her fornications, from which the
blood of the saints dwelled. Those who transverse and persevered through the path of
Thelema or Holy Magick might offer their blood to the great Cup, opening themselves to
the glory of Babalon.
Babalon is the beautiful goddess of an opened spirit, the Luciferian mind. She is the exact
opposite of Mary, for the Christians Goddess is the mother of the Black Brotherhood of
Christianity in many aspects, she is closed therefore non existent to those who seek the
light of God (Lucifer).
John Whiteside Parsons wrote much, and dedicated a majority of his short life to
Babalon. Marjorie Cameron Parsons was said to be an avatar of this goddess, and lived
her life expressing the importance of individual thought and Goddess worship through
her art and talks. The Babalon Working, which was conducted, by Parsons and the Scribe
(his assistant at that time) sought to incarnate Babalon in flesh. Shortly after, Cameron
arose.
60
61
Babalon is also to be considered a Goddess of death and blood, she is actually a varied
aspect of Lilith. Babalon may be invoked with a various methods of Sexual Gnosis and
blood magick, from which she would incarnate. Those upon the Witches Sabbat path will
recognize the mystery itself, and discover their own individual path towards her.
Hecate
- Queen of Witches-
61
62
The goddess energy, the current empowering our tradition of the witch cult is channeled
through the Goddess, Hecate. Her titles are many; The Dark Goddess, Protectress of
herds and sailors, Goddess of the Crossroads (which would draw a parallel towards Baron
Samedhi of several Voudoo traditions, being the Lord of the Crossroads and the
mysteries of Death) as well as the Sender of Nocturnal Visions (Dreaming visitation).
Hecate is depicted as a woman or hag with three heads, each facing a different direction.
It is said that Hecate is seen in all three phases of the moon. Mythology has painted a
vision of the Witch Mother with two or sometimes all three heads being that of beasts.
Each animal represents an atavistic desire which manifests in her current of lunar energy.
This power would propel her towards the goddess incarnation of the witch cult and many
lines of sorcery. The moon is represented as a significant feminine force, based and
connected with the element water.
Hecate is rumored to be of Thracian origin although her base was within the Roman and
Greek pantheons. Though daughter of two light based deities, Perses and Asteria, Hecate
dwelled in the underworld along with Hades and Persephone. Her individual powers were
discovered through the shadows deep within her own being. Residing with her as well
was Thanatos (God of Death), Hypnos (God of Sleep) and Morpheus (God of Dreams).
Hecate is known as the Goddess of Witches, being that of Sorcery and the Cunning Craft.
The aspects of Hecate within Roman and Greek culture show Hecate mostly in a dark or
hidden aspect, having three heads (two being animal) and three torches. The vehicle
wherein she traveled was a chariot guided by several dragons.
A key
significance of
the dragon is
that such beings
are connected to
solar and lunar
eclipses. By an
eclipse the
water in the
lunar sign of
Cancer is
altered in force
and substance.
Dragons (which
is a form the
Varcolaci
spirits often
take) can
transverse the
night sky,
gathering the
blood of the
moon. The
other aspect of
62
63
Hecate, Diana, is based on the more balanced side of the lunar Goddess. She was the
watcher of mountains, forests, childbirth and women. In her dark aspect she was known
as the huntress or destroyer. The Magick Light of Hecate is the backwards or 'black'
wisdom of Lucifer, the Morning Star.
Hecate is the Lunar Mother, to which dream and desire give birth to the flesh of
manifestation. The Gnostic God Lucifer or the Morning Star is the God of the Sun, being
of Solar energy. Lucifer's goddess counter part is the Arabian Al-Uzza, a warrior of the
morning star. A combination of both lunar and solar energy, strength and vision.
The Zos Kia Cultus presents the 'All - Prevailing Woman' as a combination of both Hag
and young woman. The combination equals experience and focus with beauty and grace.
The twin aspects of the Hidden 'I' as AOS termed it was a combative instance of innate
sexuality, in which all must be transgressed and explored in order to reach a higher level
of Will and focus. The divine Woman is both beautiful and Ugly, capable of
transformation from a decrepit old woman to a lithe young woman. Beauty is in the eye
of the holder, yet possible through all forms of vision. The Goddess and Woman must be
respected as divine and beautiful, to which all areas of magickal work be dedicated. All
works to Babalon, Hecate and Kali are soaked in blood yet lined with the softest silk.
Invoke your goddess with will and strength, facing the devouring fear instinct that
emanatates from the Divine Woman. The Three torches which Hecate carries give light
through the darkness which she weaves and wanders in. Light in which those of the
Witches Sabbat Tradition dance in astral flesh under a waning moon.The Dark Mother is
present at each dream Sabbat, watching above, granting her blessings under the Night of
Pan.
The date of August 13th is sacred to Hecate, it is the traditional festival held in her honor
which dates back to the Roman era. It is historically the same date as the celebration of
Diana, who is said to be yet another aspect of the Goddess.The callings of Hecate are a
channeling of lunar energy, to those knowing of their witch blood. A rite such as that
following should be held on the eve of the Sabbat as well as August 13th. An example is
as follows:
Begin with casting the circle, Widdershins (7) and banishing ritual.
"Harmony is born within the circle. We are joined within this rite
as children of the Goddess, she who rides the night sky. Thy
dance of shadows and dream casting visions. An eye which drips
the blood of the moon, to which a cloaked night gives
compassion. She who holds the spirits who traverse a sky of
endless processions... Hark!
Come forth, manifest in the power zone of Yesod, in which the
rays cascade with silver tones of life.A fire warms the earth in
your honor, to that of amber visions so clear in their ecstasy.
Widdershins around a cackling fire, your many children dance,
born of witchblood and invoking the sign of Hecate, Dark
Goddess of the Moon. We call your essence down, just as we
dance... in spirit... in flesh!! Oh Morpheus, Hypnos and Thanatos
your sight burns with life.We see much through you, desires form
63
64
Hecate
The Three Shades of Witch Fire
A Rite of Empowerment and the Summoning of Her Spirits of Night
Hecate is regarded as the Triple Mooned Goddess, the Witch Queen of primal darkness
whom is regarded as Babalon, Lilith and AZ. Hecate is the Goddess of the Crossroads,
from which one seeks self-initiation by the congress of her in the Succubi-Fetish spirit. It
is through this communion that one enters the caverns of the night, the very Temple of
Hecate. Revered as the Goddess of the Dead, she is the Queen of Ghosts, Shades and
64
65
Phantoms of the night. It is in the center of her essence that one discovers there is no
difference between Hecate and Lilith or Babalon.
This rite of empowerment should be conducted outdoors if possible, near a grave yard
from which you would not be disturbed, near an area where you may bury a small box or
bottle/pot. A chalice will be needed, preferably a skull cup/cap if access is had.
The vessel for which the famulus (Latin for Familiar) or Succubi/Goddess Fetish may be
housed should be an aesthetic choice, one which connects with the feeling of what
‘Hecate’ is to you. It is from the wing of the fallen seraph that you create your quill to
mark this tomb and fetish-house of the spirit, however it must be prepared.
Day ONE-
Wash the vessel in clean and cool water. Allow it to sit from dawn until dusk, to let it
bask in the sunlight if it may. Seek Hecate in dreams. Record the experience accordingly.
Day TWO-
Paint it the color of your desire, upon it on Four sides a mark of an X, the sacred sign of
the Cross Roads. The Sigillic formula of the Succubi or Hecate should be inscribed on the
pot/vessel.
Day THREE – The Night of the Full Moon. Within the vessel place the Sigil of Hecate
which should already be prepared, ashes and bone if possible.
I) The Virgin
I cast now the circle in flour – I Evoke the Hounds of the Barrier,
wolves created in the darkness do I call forth!
65
66
unto me as the freshly dead, the virgin from the tomb. Guide me
and walk with me unto the Luciferian Sabbat.
Widdershin around the circle, visualize each goddess with the Black Mirror and see them
encircle you. Drink of the Chalice and recite –
Triple moon move and bless this circle and rite. I come prepared,
I shall enter the Ghostroads of your lunar splendor – I shall
consume the blood of the moon – bless me in the shadows –
HEKAU!
Complete the rite and envision each goddess and you rise to a sexual frenzy, consecrate
the rite with the sexual fluid or blood offering (from yourself) upon the sigil in the
Pot/Jar/Box. After the rite, take the fetish and bury it near the chosen area, which has
been either a graveyard, oak tree or burial ground of a familiar. Ignite a black candle at
the head of the burial site and recite –
Leave buried until the Dark Moon, exhume pot and return to your Temple or Coven
Meet. Recite-
66
67
You may use this fetish to inspire your dreams and from which you may acquire visions,
as well as a coven meeting from which you bring the famulus/spirit within to speak unto
the members. In such a case, you would displace your personality via will long enough to
allow this aspect of yourself to take assumption of this energy.

Baphomet
- Horned God of Witches-
The eight - sided God, Octinimos, also known as Baphomet, has significance through the
texts of modern - day Chaos Magick as well as the Witches Sabbat Witchcraft.
Baphomet’s eight sides each represent a particular aspect of magick. This is a further
representation of the connection between the Astral Sabbat (the Dream Conclave) and the
68
69
Day Side (ie Magick) of earthly life. The Day Side being of course the fleshing ground of
manifestation. The combination of the two combined with a system of inspired belief and
action represent a state of individual strength, granting access to the gates of the 93
current which is the vital source of Thelema.
In “Dogme et Rituel- Haute Magie” by Eliphas Levi, he describes his famous Baphomet
image as the following:
The mentioning of the flame between the horns as symbolizing the magic light of
universal balance, is rather significant with the mentioning of the soul being elevated
above matter (Lucifer) and the flame being tied to matter shines above it (Satan).
The manifestation of the Holy Guardian Angel (The True Will, the hidden genius and the
spirit of light) is also the result of invocation and desire made flesh. The two human
aspects of the Witches Sabbat Goat (Baphomet) are represented in the Female (the Moon
- Witchcraft and Sorcery: strength in mind, the dream state, desire initializing belief
which manifests towards strength and ultimately attainment.) and Male (Sun, Magick:
manifestation, strength in flesh and action).
Without one the other is nothing. The goat aspect equates with the Qabalistic number 77,
meaning buck/goat/devil thus representing fertility, creation, life and unrestrained sexual
force. This is parallel with the basis of desire equaling action, having its basis in a
sexually driven subconscious beginning, even though the desire obtained may not be sex
related.
69
70
The invocation to Baphomet is a lunar/solar opening to the mysteries of the Night Side
and the fleshing Day Side.
70
71
Invocation of Baphomet
"O fire of the Black One, illuminate by thy dark presence,
Let my strength come forth. I am stripped and defaced,
To reveal the true self, and its ever changing essence
Which truth may not be rendered without falsehood.
71
72
As within the Light of Hekate, thus our union of the Seed of the
Sun and the Nectar of the Moon shall bring forth me, known in
flesh as desire.
I speak the words which form the serpent's cycle, of creation and
destruction. My tongue forked which speaks the wisdom of ages.
I exist beyond the Grave and Before it...from which you shall
always return to me.
I am the cradle of the Gods of Night and Day, from all express
the Lightning flash of Sight"
Asmodeus
-God of Sorcery-
An ancient Daemon with his roots in Persia and later in Palestine. Asmodeus is
mentioned frequently in Hebrew texts. The Goetia of Solomon the King gives a
description of the form which Asmodeus takes when appearing before the sorcerer:
Three headed (a connection with Hecate, being the tripled nature of the moon), a ram,
human and bull, Asmodeus rides upon a dragon, vomits fire and carries a spear.
The association of Asmodeus with witchcraft beyond the Triple Mooned nature is that the
Daemon is said to be the child of Tubal - Cain and Naamah, given life by the reverse
aspects associated with witchcraft and demonology. These 'reverse aspects' refer to his
title as a "Demon of Impurity" (The Book of the Sacred Magick of Abramelin the Mage"
translated by Macgregor Mathers) which signifies the horrors (by Christian doctrine) of
astral copulations which occur at the Witches' Sabbat.
Such copulations occur once the individual creates and charges Elementals evoked for
this specific purpose on the material plane. It is not always advisable to evoke such
Elementals while not consecrating or binding them, such if not controlled can cause
undesirable effects.
Asmodeus in the doctrine of the Witches Sabbat or Witch Cult is the lord of the circle,
within which full attainment and union occurs. The Lord of the Circle is also the Lord of
Sorcery. Asmodeus can be a powerful guide from the gate of the flesh, or earth, to that of
Choronzon. Approach this Daemon with caution, for there can be hell to pay if any spirit
is invoked without care.
72
73
Shaitan
-The Adversary which developed
from the Lord of Storms and Prince
of Darkness, Set. In the Islamic
Tradition (ahadith), Shaitan/Satan is
Azazel, the Lord of Djinn whom is
made from Fire, thus a source of
Light unto itself. Azazel/Shaitan is a
fallen angel, the first angel who
preached to the other angels in pre-
eternity. Shaitan is also Melek
Ta’aus, the Peacock Angel.
Samael
Samael in Hebrew texts is the
husband of Lilith, the father of Cain.
Samael is of Fire and of Night, from
which all daemonical energy is
derived. When accepting both Lilith
and Samael into your mind, into your
spirit, one must be certain of the
witch blood which runs through your
veins. Each God and Goddess grants
a fuel to the gnosis, but also forms
the subconscious and conscious
according to their own shape and
form. Samael is the great serpent of
biblical lore, born of fire and taught
by the words of Belial. Within the Witch Cult these Daemonical forces are of great
significance and benefit to the sorcerer who can control and utilize such god forms.
Samael is often refered to as Asmodeus as well, while this may actually be its off spring,
guiding humans through the magickal arts in spirit form upon the earth.
Divination
Witchcraft and sorcery concern the tapping into the subconscious; learning the ways in
which it works in regards to you personally and making them accord to your desire. The
balance of this exists within the Shaman and Nature bound activities, for Nature is the
mother of all humanity. To open psychic levels of the mind requires a conscious effort to
break all levels of useless learned behavior and thought patterns. Then one can then
restructure aligned with the development and understanding of psychic abilities. Some of
these abilities can be brought to the surface by intense yoga, pushing the self both
73
74
mentally and physically until the true strengths and weaknesses are known and dealt with.
Divination is the art of obtaining visions of a certain possible event that will take
flesh.The witch cult which exists in base on the astral and dream level seem to be fueled
by an even older current. This particular current is labeled as the 93 current, or Thelema.
Love and Will are the two keys by which mankind can rise above any situation to begin
building a healthy and wonderful life. To do so, one must plunge into the great depths of
the Abyss and work with the beautiful and sometimes frightening shades and spirits
which inhabit such areas. Self Love as AOS described is "the self in knowing and all of
which can be molded according to desire." (6) To truly know the self one must plunge
deep into the mirror and face the demons and gods within. The actual development of
psychic abilities are of two kinds primarily:
Whether individuals are self taught, or have a natural gift from a young age, they have a
talent for having visions or being able to foresee events and future happenings. Some are
able to see what was, which could open mental doors to ghosts and other such specters, or
to see things which could come to pass. Individuals who are self taught by practicing
opening the subconscious door to work with such abilities often grow stronger by their
visions, which are similar to those born to such ability. While results are similar,
techniques are as different as the people who work them. I am describing such a method
which holds some significant results for those able to develop it.
Divination by Water
A fairly large glass bowl should be obtained, which the individual should fill half full
with water. This should be done in the setting of a room suited to fit the frame of mind
required. Incense, herbs, candles and music could benefit the mind set required. The
witch now seeks to become entranced by whatever means permits the mind freedom to
access its own psychic influences. Forget everything which is outside your door, forget
the people, cars, animals barking, etc. until one is able to focus intently upon the interior
world of the mind. The subconscious should be activated by an inspirational symbol or
sigil which should already be consecrated. Perhaps it is a talisman for knowledge,
divination, happiness, etc.., any of which can work to the best suited means.
If the witch is attempting to read the fortune of another, she/he should sit the individual
down across from them, so they can also view the water within the bowl. The witch will
focus upon the water as a great current of Witches Sabbat energy, fueled by the waves of
the Abyss and all that emanates from her/his subconscious.
The individual will ask a particular question of the witch, who will begin focusing and
concentration on the water. Images will begin to appear in the surface that will in some
way reveal the answer they require. If the witch is unable to make the individual see
them, as some are unable to do, then the witch should describe the scene in detail to the
person having the reading done. Some are able to make images appear in water, which all
74
75
can see and some are only able to make them appear to themselves. There are numerous
other kinds of divination methods one can practice, many will work for the individual
while others may not.
Candle Magick
The use of candle in ritual is a proven technique of allowing the mind to enter the states
by which the subconscious is able to work it's will. I have mentioned the use of sigils
which signify the desire in disguised fashion. Candle magick is a system of symbols and
desire transformed into a particular item. One example of their use is in ritual. One
should use the particular color which represents a certain desire, such as the following
colors. It is recommended that you should use the colors as they suit you, based on your
individual interpretations of such.
This is a list of the possible influences and significance that each color holds. It could be
that the sorcerer develops his or her own detailed system of intermixing color and
combining them with the burning of candles. Some examples could be the following:
If one was seeking to create or evoke a succubus or sexual servitor one could burn the
colors of both Red and Purple, together with incense and using suitable invocations and
sigils/talismans, such could prove a powerful spell. If one was seeking to battle another
the colors of Black and Red would be implemented along with invocations of numerous
daemonic servitors created and evoked especially for the purpose of destroying the
enemy with a lightning swift strike. If one was seeking to attract a suitable partner/lover
one may wish to burn the colors of Blue (friendship), Red and Purple. If one sought to
help a sick friend the color combination of Yellow and White would be of interest, of
course Orange and Blue would be an excellent idea as well. The candle should a large
round one, allowing it to burn for several hours. Many small taper candles will burn out
within one hour so those are not advised. The intent of the wish should be heavily
75
76
visualized in sigil form once the candle is lit, as it slowly burns focus upon the wish
coming to flesh. This would give the brain avenues to obtain its inner desire through the
medium of a coded (i.e. colored) object, given significance according to the definition of
the color used in reference to your mental definition.
The candle should be burnt for as long as possible, the focus fading as the candle burns
out. By the extinguishing of the flame, the mind should be tired of it, enough to forget it.
If not, a forced passing should be implemented to the best of your ability. Try other
means such as a long bath, sleep or another activity while the candle burns, enough to
issue the focused energy through the candle while actually doing something you greatly
enjoy. Do not let activity hinder your magick, let it enhance it accordingly.
Spell of Making
This is a practice of making, which could be used in almost any manner the sorcerer
desires. Such could be for the destruction of an intended victim, for the obtaining of love
or friendship, for the wish of health to a loved one, etc. There are really no boundaries for
such a working as this. The Spell of Making involves a mental image and the Will of the
sorcerer to be successful. One obtains a black box to store objects representing the
individual on whom the rite is focused. Objects which are recommended are a sample of
writing, a piece of the individual's clothes, a photograph or drawing, in fact anything
personal which grants you a connection with them. Store these objects in the box you
have procured for these items. Then you focus your entire Will on the desire and it's
coming to pass. Some develop a mantra which they recite over and over to themselves, to
further secure the desire coming to flesh. The box should be simply allowed to sit, and is
kept while you visualize the objects in the box upon each day that passes. Do not disturb
it, simply allow it to sit and build it's energy as you continually focus upon it for a
moment each day. Once you feel an amount of tension has lessened, you should destroy
the entire box, every item within it as well. A small fire is ideal. While the fire is burning
the contents visualize your Ids to carry the desire unto it's destination, to fulfill the desire.
Once the fire has destroyed the box and it's contents, forget about it entirely. This allows
the intent to derive a consistent source of psychic energy, activated via the subconscious,
to seek forth it's mission and make it come to flesh.

The Sabbats
The eight Witches’ Sabbats listed herein are presented in Gaelic. The purpose of this is to
recognize the great Celtic heritage which is present in the craft and its blood. Our whole
exploration and the system within our work is based upon the Celtic system of the four
‘Greater’ Sabbaths. These are: Imbolg, Beltane, Lughnasadh and Samhain, while the
Equinoxes and Solstices are Spring, Summer, Autumn and Yule tide. These are times of
shifting forces, when the witch draws great power from the earth that can be distilled by
the control of the will. Such powers are fleeting, so each sorcerer must capture and
employ what they can while they can. The Sabbaths are a time of gathering with ones’
family, both on the earth and on the astral plane. The disciplines of the Dream Sabbat are
not an easy or uninitiated task. Much control and advanced knowledge and practice must
be instilled in order for the witch or warlock to take to the dream flesh. Be sure though,
the sorcerer who can leave the flesh and journey throughout the night and Da’ath is a
dangerous and powerful magickian, but also vulnerable to more malefic forces if Will
and discipline are not implemented. Proceed with caution and care, for there is a wolf in
the garden of Eden.
The Witches Sabbat Shadows cast are but initiation points of which we open forth the
gates of dreams, that waking and dreaming state of which we shall become in an all
encompassing arcana of self.

Imbolg
February 2nd.
This festival is of fire. The powers of fire reside in creation and destruction, the flames
either caress or break down. If at all possible, this rite should be conducted outdoors,
providing room for an ample fire. If not, a well decorated chamber adorned with the
images of fire and sleep.
Imbolg is represented as the first stirring of Spring within the womb of the Earth. This
rite is a celebration of the coming of light, therefore of great inspiration leading in reverse
towards the moon. A sigil of astral rising should be consecrated by the sorcerer or witch,
and then laid upon the altar for each coven member to focus upon. The sigil should be
absorbed in the mind, becoming all things of which there is a creative spark or flame.
Imbolg is the fire festival of Lilith – Babalon in her Luciferic Solar Essence, it is the
emergence from the dark of Winter – the very first signs of the coming of Spring and Her
King, Lucifer. Around the time of Imbolg one may summon forth the essence of Lucifera
– Lilith as the Goddess which bears the fruit of the earth, Cain.
Implements which provide useful visualizations are the Athame (each witch within the
rite should possess one), sword, incense burner, consecration fluid (a bottle of the
sorcerers' blood, not ANIMAL blood mind you, specifically the life fluid of your very
own self.) All Sabbat rites should be opened with the Witches' Sabbat text, adapted from
AO Spare's ritual (8), proving most effective for those of burgeoning inspiration.
The particular version of the Witches' Rune pertaining to Coven Nachttoter is as follows:
Such words I advise be altered to suit the individual working such rites.
Witches Rune
"Bagabi lacha bachabe lamac cahi achababe
To that which is, unto that which was...
A burning cycle is upon us, fear shan’t ascend in its ugliness,
failure is null, nothing is true.
Cast my earth and rise unto the shadow
Shining moon and velvet night I raise the witches' blade and give
thee life
Come unto us this dark night!
South, East, West and North thy spirit come forth in joy
A fire from the spinning sun wheel, Birth is through blood"
Sabbath Rite
"Mother of shadows, Crone of wisdom, Oh Goddess of the blood
moon,
Reversed matter, I evoke thee unto this celebration.
78
79
“I conjure thee, circle of power unto which the wind carries our
will!
Asmodeus, behold an ascending light burning gold transcending
all points of time, we are becoming as the one called Morning
Star of the east, blinding light of birth!
Io Horned God of Wisdom!"
Spring Equinox
March 21st
The Spring Equinox is the dawning of light and birth, of renewal and energy. Spring is
the time of PAN and of the Morning Star (9). All beasts and men/women walk the earth
in awakened senses, especially those of a magickal path. This is a rite of exploring the
parallel path ways, similar to the spheres of shadow conscious or the tunnels of Night.
Balance is defined in this season and both light and shadow, black and white... all of
which becomes itself in reverse. The sorcerer should approach this rite as a dawning of
their senses, of which wit and thought will prevail in the well balanced individual. The
Will itself is tested in this aspect. Pan is represented and hidden as Pan, the child of
Samael and Lilith. Pan/Cain takes many forms, in the Spring he is the Wild Beast who is
Hunter, horned and decorated in the colors of the earthen flesh.
Preparation
A reverse traditional sun wheel should be hung above the altar, representing the light
which breaks through the night itself in turn to return to darkness. This symbol is eternal,
never breaking from this cycle of destruction and creation. The essence of spring lies in
the ideal of birth and new breath, in which all new things emerge from the earth. The
traditional Athame and such should be present.
It is advised to approach this rite with extreme care and practice individual control, PAN
awaits your PANIC, your LUST and awakening. May PAN be as your brother, your
guide, not your doom. Those who allow one particular imbalanced side to manifest will
be victim of such a self-created destruction cycle. The circle should be drawn and the
proper invocations performed, intent should be pure and of great strength in each
individual performing. The Morning Star is being invoked for the sense of Luciferian
Light and beauty, to dispel that which is of ill intent. To understand the essence of the
Morning Star, one must break down the perverse myth created by the writers of the Bible
for its devil created of such a Light Symbol.
79
80
Such recitals of "Hymn to Pan" by Aleister Crowley is suggested, the beauty and power
associated with this invocation/poem is legendary.
An associated Coven Maleficia /Coven Nachttoter chant is as following:
Each member should be rapidly excited by dancing at their own individual frantic pace,
until images of the Morning Star (of which I recommend Paintings of Lucifer by German
architect Fidus ) and Pan (10) (see Rosaleen Norton) dance freely in the spirit, a raging
fire in the heart and the Sun Wheel burns a golden red. The rite should end with the
Witches' Sabbath and then a banishing. Then each and every member should try and
retire to sleep at the same time to attend a group Sabbath.
Beltane
April 30th
Beltane is known primarily as a Celtic holiday, translating to 'Bel Fire'. A God of light
and fire, Bel also represented the shadow side, often connected with Cernunnos. Beltane
is a gathering of the rising Spring, when birth is abundant and life awakes in its fragile
beauty. The night is the gateway to dreams, through which we take flight blown by
fervent winds in the direction of the Sabbat. As the flames burn high towards a waning
moon, so does inspiration and the shadows of those who shed their flesh. The key lies
within a dreaming and waking world dependent on the friction of desire and will. Will
you not open an eye to the possibilities available only in dream? Nothing is true,
understand this and the key is awakened in that instant. Between each line there is
transition, the moment that young woman becomes hag and hag becomes woman. All is
beautiful in the instant in which lightning strikes. Burn with passion according to your
desire, so the flames leap to heights seldom reached. Ecstasy is belief.
Midsummer
JUNE 22nd
This is a calling and celebration of the warmth of the sun, an invocation of passion and
life giving pleasure. Lugh, the Celtic Light Bringer is of radiant color, his image is
80
81
painted in the mind during this period. The magickal weapon of this particular Sabbat is
the Lamp. 26 is the number of the Witches' Sabbat as well as Satyrs and Fauns, Panic
Demons (11) the children of PAN. It is said that Pan is present at each Sabbat, just as the
sigil of desire which is the Goat Headed figure or Black One is. A circle should be drawn
by the members of the temple of group, who frequently take a collective name significant
in relation to these gods and other entities. The ritual of Dawn is suggested, however the
actual Sabbat text should be focused upon during the evening hours shortly before
sleeping.
Lughnasadh
July 31st
Lugh is a Celtic god of Light and Fire, connected to, by the essence of the form, to
Lucifer.
It is rumored that the name Lugh is derived from the Latin word LUX, meaning 'light'.
Such a Sabbat is a celebration of not only the hidden light (ie. Morning Star and wisdom)
but the Moon as well. Lughnasadh has its roots primarily within the Celtic culture which
later surfaced and transferred into what is now known as the Independent Witches Sabbat
Witchcraft and Wicca. The essence of this Sabbat is the brightness of the sun and the
beauty of nature in its living aspect.
Lucet/Lucifer is Azazel the Fire Djinn, he who is brought unto earth wearing the Emerald
Crown.
Lugh is represented as the leader of Tuatha De Danann which translates "People of the
Goddess Dana". The people of Ireland record a great battle in their ancient texts between
Lugh and Tuatha De Danann against the Fomors and their leader, Balor. Lugh and his
people were victorious, thus banishing the Fomors further within the shadows in which
they dwelt. Approach the festival of Lughnasadh as though you were drawing down the
moon of Hecate, breed the thoughts and desires which shall come to pass. A willow
which drapes towards the earth will inherently guide you until a new sight is gained from
the shadows of your shape. You will undergo, as did Lugh, death and rebirth, therefore be
robed in white at first, then black. A reversal is essential for the understanding that all
things have two natures inherently. All actions and symbols must be trespassed to gain
the insight of mind-flight (the dream).
Autumn Equinox
September 21st
As the two equinoxes are known for the balance and equilibrium of both black and white,
so is the birthing of your inner strengths and insight, which develop with every Equinox
that passes. In the old times, when the tradition flourished from tongue to mind, so did
the growing psychic strength of the witch. This is still the case, with slight differences
due to the modern view point and increase of information. The energies available are
balanced positive and negative, thus eminently suited for growth. The renewed tradition
now opens doors to the mind unknown for thousands of years. We are relinked with the
81
82
sorcerers of Babylon and Egypt, who passed on the cups of witch blood to those
psychically connected or of lineal descent. Rites on the Equinox should be employed to
benefit the coven or individual witch, so that balance is achieved. These goals have
plentiful magickal energy to employ, will and Athame - the cause of change and passion!
Approach the Equinox with the Witches Rune and, according to your atavistic desires and
Ancient gnosis of memories, explore and rejoice! This rite sees a change of emphasis
from the Life giving Sun to the height of the Moon in it's death aspect. All things return
to black just as black gives birth to light. Give farewell to the Sun and welcome forth the
Moon which rises as the twilight approaches. The dead rise as the leaves fall, making
way for the funeral fires of Samhain!
Samhain
October 31st
Of the dead who dance a leaf blown dance towards the fires;
Of the spectral hands which caress the sleep autumn;
We come of graves yet unknown of sight and filled in tunnels
Of crimson, as the torch which leads our very essence -
One behind and one ahead both moving forwards and backwards;
At the same time of names ye already know...
Never to remind as she dances upon a lovelorn tomb.
Just as May Eve is the light bringing birth of summer, so comes the shadow side and
reverse, being the coming of the dead in the Night of Pan. Samhain is the most significant
to our sorcery, being a portal in nature to the shadows cast by the great torch of Hecate
and Lilith. It is when we shed our skin to the skies of twilight, and rise to flight among
those of Black Eagle (12). This is the time of the shadow current of witchcraft in which
we exist by our own Ids and desires, by our will and strength alone. This is the birth
(November 1st) of the Celtic winter, when the dead walk between the paths of twilight
and dawn. From our day side to what shall be our night side: this is the night when the
dead come to dance! When vampiric flesh and atavistic ecstasies are known to those of
our blood. Many shall paint upon their flesh the sigil of Varcolaci, of drinking from the
moon. The 'Feile na Marbh' (translated 'Feasts of the Dead') is upon us, take more of
your fill of desire!
Preparation
As it is a feast of the dead, you of the blood surely know your role! To be clothed in
cerements of the grave and of the most beautiful colors, being black and crimson, purple
and white! The cauldron should be prepared with all herbs and potions in which you are
able and knowledgeable. Drops of your blood should be added as a gift to the dead. The
night of vampiric rising and shape shifting has highest priority, revel and bask in the great
glory that your very blood is of Hecate!
A bonfire should feature if outdoors in seclusion, a blaze to mirror the great Sabbath feast
of the spirit.
82
83
The rite should open with the Witches Rune and then intone:
Celebrate with such a fury and rising ecstasy as is not seen of men. This shall be your
will and wish.
Embrace your lover and friends as one; to them and to you are given joy! Behold, the
hooves of the goat are behind thee and ahead of thee, knowing the step you are taking.
There is a key here, learn of it what is in your very heart! Mask yourself in the paint of
the dead or of the spirit you are! Abandon yourselves to the freedom of the flying flesh!
If indoors, let billows of incense smoke fill the chamber; then with invocations and
evocations, callings and banishings learn from the dead what ye will.
Contact via Ouji boards as trivial as it may sound can be of use, as are room recorders to
capture any messages from the dead. Upon the closing of the great celebration, banish
and retire to sleep and to dream. Shed your skin as the Serpent of the forest and fly upon
broom or animal... take to the skies and feast of the funereal dead! They are your
beginnings and the infinite possibility.
Yule
December 22nd
The Winter Solstice is the time that marks the death and rebirth of the Sun God. It is a
time of contemplation, of self-examination and natural rebirth. Yule also is the birthday
of Mithras (13), the Sun God of Persia. The birth data of the Christian savior was not
accurately known from their historic texts per se, however around AD 273 that the
Church and its officials aligned the birth of Christ to absorb the Pagan Gods of old
(Mithras, etc).
The moon of December is known as the Wolf Moon, Oak Moon which refers to the
birthing of new life, to which the balance of nature grows strong. The great Oak tree
reaches high into the material world while having it's roots deeply planted within the
earth. The purest rite consists of a clear and awakened mind, in which a new birth shall
arise.
83
84
Of all the possibilities in the astral plane, the legendary Witches Sabbat is the most
enshadowed. Many descriptions of the Sabbat are based on dreams and sight, more often
the people who give details of the Sabbat are sorcerers who make careful record of the
events. Austin Osman Spare made significant developments concerning this often
understood and misrepresented magickal assumption. The Sabbat takes place several
times a year depending on the desire and requires no set communication between the
members. As I have stated, it is based on the subconscious desire and urge to take part in
the Sabbat.
Primarily the Sabbat is based on astral union and the shedding of restrictive dogma and
day side denials which take place within each sorcerer's life unless they live with a harem
far away from civilization. The Sabbat as described in general takes place deep in the
forest, when the moon stands full in the night. Witches, both male and female attend with
their Elemental servitors and imps, who participate in the ceremony, celebrating
according to their masters' will while in their astral form.
One god form often presiding over the Sabbath is known as OZ or Baphomet, among
other names. This god form often manifests on the astral plane as either: a mental or
psychic focus of the group, wherein the form is mutually established so that each thought
pattern establishes a common link of subconscious thought between the witches;
alternatively the form is assumed naturally by a magus who is in attendance. If more than
one magickian assumes the form then it will become fused as one which will hold no
identity beyond the god form they assume.
84
85
An astral musick takes onwards the desire of the Sabbath, known as the flute of Pan. The
god form of Pan is always present in essence at the Sabbath, not always as a god form but
in essence. The great shadow of Pan (another aspect of OZ but as ALL and SHADOW)
guards the night and the forests, creator of the music of the dead. A great fire will spring
up in a clear place in a field where all have gathered. The bonfire will be great and
beautiful, showing glimpses of spectral faces in its flames. The fire is always a symbol of
hidden desire and wisdom from the result. The result is always an extension of the will
that derives from subconscious desire.
The dead will gather in some cases and dance around the fire. Elementals are often
observed that have odd and wickedly interesting forms, they too will dance with the dead
if you are so filled with joy and pleasure. This is the result of Witches Sabbatal union
under the moon in which you will fly. The Sabbat may be prepared by a personal feast
and sexual arousal - without orgasm! Incense should be burnt profusely in the chamber of
sleep and no disturbances should be able to reach you if at all possible. The focus should
be a sigil of the Sabbath.
The Sabbat will generally occur on the seasonal changes, the most frequent and
significant of these astral congregations is in October before and directly after Samhain
(pronounced 'sow-in'). The second most favorable and active is at the Spring Equinox,
however Sabbats are not necessarily "dated" or "agreed" upon. It is often a subconscious
call between others to meet in the shadow lands. It is important to note that the vampiric
sorcerer does not attend the Sabbat for predatory purposes. Its purpose is to come unto
your own kind, be they "vampires", "Ghosts" or what-have-you, a celebration not a battle.
Any sexual congress, astral transformation and such which may occur are between the
astrals participating. A basis of desire and manifestation will occur in these dreams.
The Sabbat
Luciferian-
The Luciferian Sabbat; the union of the spirit with the Seraphic Angels and Watchers. By
Holy meditation on the brilliance of the illuminated self will the Black Flame or Essence
of Self be discovered. This is the ritual of the Holy Guardian Angel – The True Will/True
Self. Symbolized by the Luciferian Ascent of the isolated or Sethian (Setian) sense of
being is self-deification possible within a positive aspect. The Angelic Famulus (Latin for
Familiar also the HGA) is the expression and essence of the True Self is a magickally
developed form. This is the divine initiator, the inspiration or muse of the self. The
Angelic Familiar is the result of Luciferian Self-Liberation, the Angel which fell through
darkness to again emerge in the Light of Being. In the Saturnian Gnosis, this Rite and
sate of being is the Higher octave of Saturn, from which one may ascend through from
the Darkness or Demonium of the Earth.
The Chant of Going unto the Luciferian Sabbat-
85
86
Infernal-
The earthly demonic Sabbat – the descent of the Luciferian Self (spirit) unto the darkness
of Set – The Peacock cloaked essence of the serpent. The Infernal Sabbat is the earthly
gathering of the shades of the dead, those under the watch of Azrail, of Vampyric
Congress and lycanthropic transformation. It is the forbidden mysteries of the Kingdom
of Shadows, the very gateway of the Abyss, of Anubis. The Infernal Sabbat may be
performed and experienced on two levels simultaneously; in the spirit and dreaming
aspect from which the shades of the dead join with the living, as well as in waking as a
form of the liberating Black Mass or similar Rite of the Adversary. It is the crossroads of
which we meet in spirit – Infernum Sabbati.
“I do seek the flesh of the wolf and toad – in the Devil’s Skin do I
transform. I summon forth the flesh of the dreaming sabbbat –
that I become in the fires of hell. By the Northern Quarter of
Night do I summon thee – Hecate, by three and turn of the dark
moon, widdershins about the sacred circle – by Owl and Bat
Great shadows of darkness in light, to go in the company of the
shades of the dead. I encircle myself in my great familiars – to
dance by the Elphame Fire of Succubi and Daemon flesh – I
mask myself in the birthing blanket of Cain and Lilith – From
which I am immolated – Serpent Skin do I cloak myself in, Hail
and Blessed be those of the Devil’s Flame and Hekate’s Shroud”

Samael and the Queen of the Night, Lilith. The Witches Sabbat Goat is the Gateway
towards the mysteries unspoken, whispered against the Sun in the land of Khem.
The Essence of the 8-Pointed Witches Sabbat Star – The Luciferian Path of
Transformative Magick
‘The Great Work’ is the Path of Self-Knowledge, power and internal development. The
Very essence of Magick, to Ascend. The ambivalent path of High Magick is but the
gateway toward High Sorcery, self-realization, development and control.
The path or 8 points of the Luciferian Path are as follows maps of self-attainment.
ONE: By self-purification let the body be cleaned of impurities. Fasting, abstinence and
the disciplines of self-control for a period of time be implemented. By controlling the
thoughts and intakes of the body may one later indulge and enjoy the pleasures of the
earth.
TWO: Control by developing the Will that the Body shall become still. Yoga and similar
methods of obtainment be practiced until the self is still in the body. Envision the self in
present and direction or path from which you may become.
THREE: The Binding to the Luciferic Path of the Adversary, the dedication to the Great
Work of Becoming. This may be conducted by ones own initiatory ritual, and ‘The
Bornless One Ritual of Ascension’. Conduct these workings of High Magick until the
Flaming Swords of the Seraphim reveal the path of the Emerald Crown of Lucifer, that in
Holy Light of the Cunning Fire shall you become in the Illumination of Seth.
FOUR: The Earthly journey of the sorcerer, the path of the Adversary and Devil in flesh.
The individual shall move through the dual ecstasies to work with both shadow and light.
This is the development of the Bestial and Angelic Familiar; the Holy Guardian Angel
and Evil Genius-Congressus cum Daemone.
FIVE: This is the initiation by Magickal retirement for a period, from which one observes
Sethian Isolation and the various aspects of self. The initiate shall receive instructions of
the Coven, and may then seek the discarnate who reside in the Lands of the Gast for self-
introspection.
SIX: The infernal induction. The initiate shall embrace the Daemonic Essence and enjoy
the pleasures of the earth. The initiate shall for a period chosen by the coven, become an
avatar for a specific associate God or Goddess form of the Higher
Famulus/Angel/Demon.
SEVEN: This is the path of over-stimulation and exhaustion, which ushers forth ones
Coming into Being. This may be conducted for a period with devotion to the Goddess
Babalon/Lilith/AZ. That all sexual and physical acts are focused and dedication to ones
becoming through Her. Your Body shall be a Temple in HER name.
87
88
EIGHT: The veil of Anpu and the Awakening of Seker. The Vampyric ReManifestation.
The Dual Ecstasies are intertwined and Baphomet emerges as self. The Death Posture,
focus of the Vampyric Mysteries of Khem shall then the Luciferian Awakening come to
pass.
The 8-Pointed Path of Luciferian and Infernal Becoming be undertaken through a period
of 12 months. Keep a journal of both dreams and workings to monitor your results.
-Meditation unto the transformative state of the Werewolf. Perform a ritual of the Devil’s
Skin. The ritual will project into dreams the state of the Beast. Meditate, imagine and
visualize the stages of transformation before dreaming. Keep a detailed Journal of
visions, desires thoughts and difference between this lycanthropic state and normal
waking.
-The individual will meditate on transformation in the astral and dreaming form as a
bat/raven/bird or such. Keep a detailed record of the imagined and visualized
transformation in reference of memory, all feelings and strange ideals which are brought
forth. Once this is mastered with tangible results to the initiate, you may at this time
begin to shape shift into a combination of animals and birds, which attribute suits your
personality and desire.
The primal awakening and entry into Leviathan, the serpentine aspect of the psyche.
Thinking in this path tends to reflect cold and logical thinking patterns, devoid of
emotion. While this may at first be contrary to your own personality, keep a focus of this
path as you will eventually balance out aspects considered cold in forms of thinking
before action, ect. The point of this path is to initiate self-study and thinking before
impulsive action. The serpent is wisdom and stealth.
88
89
The primal essence of Flame and Water shall be united; the Dragon shall then take flesh.
The initiate shall utilize his or her magickal and sorcerous techniques to expand their own
knowledge and span of control. The seeker shall also visualize nightly a great Dragon, as
a form of their own self and then seek entry through the coils of Leviathan = Timeless
Essence. It is at this point timeless consciousness, the goal being Immortality of the
Psyche shall be explored in depth.
The Lord of Darkness and Shadows, the Vampyric Essence itself. The initiate works in
meditation upon developing the shadow into various forms of transformation, via creating
ngangas and fetishes. This is the essence of the multitude of Daemonic Transformation.
Keep a detailed journal on the results therein, including the paths of Goetic and medieval
grimoire workings which involve summoning these interior and exterior forces as a form
of yourself, that you may absorb and become as them, they as yourself. It is during this
Self-Transformative work that the realization of “I” as either a multitude of forms comes
into being, that you may strengthen and become a solid form of being, controlled and
able in your own self-directed journey of initiation.
The death (Vampyric) of self will be enacted in a Tibetan inspired ‘Chud’ Ritual, calling
of the ancestral dead and shades to feast upon the body. This is a form of sacrifice from
which the manes of the dead feed from the living body, to give these forms substance and
evolutionary ‘sparks’ which may benefit the sorcerer later. The spirit of the initiate is also
infused with the ancestral or chthonic shade which is a form of self-initiation. The Path of
Azrail also explores the phantasms and ghost doors in Ritual Sorcery, from which one
may commune with the shades of the dead. The initiate will also meditation upon his own
death, the path which leads to Vampyric Awakening.
Calling of the 8 Points of Baphomet, being the secret essence of Samael and Lilith
revealed!
It is Baphomet who is essence of the Circle, the God of the Eightfold Power associated
with an earth based summoning. This is a manifestation of Baphomet and a form of
Nylarlathotep, the Black Shadow of the Sabbat.
The Sabbat is one of resurgent desire and awakening. Go forth with freedom, joy and
pleasure! A description of one such event follows. Within the dream all is possible and all
becomes.
"I remember preparing myself for the evening, incense burning thickly on this mid
October evening. I had spent most of the day looking forward to this eve and now it had
come. I knew, as an initiate who would go forth by night, that much significance would
89
90
manifest in the dream realm. Sleep was coming, as welcome as a mid-evening lover. I
had been focusing on a vision of Black Eagle, through a sigil based on the concept.
Night rose with a passion unmatched by even the most lustful embrace.
As I closed my eyes, focusing upon the Varcolaci Sigil, I felt a power within my body
rising; it was like a collection of energy that could make your body burst with excitement,
if by chance you were in such a situation. As I was also very relaxed it was entirely a
surreal feeling, devoid of physical stress or urge. Each limb was quite relaxed and limp. I
felt as if I was flowing towards a different and most welcoming world. The form I was
taking was of the dual aspect of shadow and beast, my color was black as it was attuned
with my true nature. Not evil or necessarily sinister but based firmly in the nightside
realm. Sunlight was mine in the morning, this evening I was reaching towards a shadow
god!
I felt my body rising, not my physical body mind you, but a great astral form which I can
change at will. I felt my form becoming that of a bat, I could float now in this chamber.
Opening an astral eye I could understand through sight what I had become, what beauty it
was to view the self from a seemingly external eye. I decided to go forth into the great
night, to that which awaited me.
The Varcolaci Sigil was still burning in my mind, a collage of black and blood red.
Reminiscent of the Scarlet Woman who had manifested some time before and vanished. I
knew what was out there, at the same time not knowing what awaited me. It was that
pleasure and excitement which called to my very essence.
The wind was gusty and chilly that evening. It was not unpleasantly cold, just the kind of
weather where you would normally need a light jacket or such. Astral form tends to not
lay restrictions of clothes upon one unless it is their own will. I had grown to understand
the purpose and being of Choronzon, being the point at which madness and nothingness
could manifest. Choronzon is only demonic because it exists between dusk and dawn, it
is between universe "A" and "B", a guardian if you will. I had invoked this energy before
and found it quite beneficial in the avenues of mental strength, it also challenged all that
was - wishing to devour it. I had fought it before, nearly going into Choronzon, being
saved only by the last threads of WILL which, ultimately proved those threads were
actually ropes! I took to flying in the night, letting my direction be guided by an
Elemental I called TZBA, a form which was created for night travels for a period of time.
I knew the Sabbat would draw me to it, I yearned for the communion which would offer
abundant pleasure.
My astral form kept strong in the wind, though I was observing all around me in a frantic
pace of already dawning ecstasy and burgeoning excitement. I knew through will and
control that I could remain in this state for some time. I recollect how I mastered this act
of dream control, having understood the importance of remaining focused on other semi-
psychonautic levels. Through Karezza and Tibetian Tantric breathing control exercises I
had developed the strength for astral travel. It is true that some have a "knack" for it, for
others it is a discipline. For myself, it was a bit of both. I recall the first time I entered the
astral plane, it was amazing and so short because through panic and excitement I was
drawn back into my physical body. This was however quite natural and even more
obstacles came in my path the first time I attempted the Death Posture.
90
91
I continued to remain in nocturnal flight, my astral wings drew me further into a wooded
area. Much fog lay across the landscape and the sight was beautiful. I knew that in the
night I was free and, even though on the astral plane there are often wars among
sorcerers, that I was safe unto myself. I had, after all, developed strength and protective
walls from the blood and sexual fluids of two individuals from many nights of Tantric
Elemental formations.
I began to hear disembodied chants, in many different voices and tones, often sounding
both angelic and demonic. I saw within the forest a vast clearing. A huge bonfire lit up
the area, and various torches surrounded the area, beyond which were great shadows of
night. A numerous assembly of witches had come, many in human form. Their astral
shapes were either beautiful or grotesque, some demonic and animal like. I felt a charge
of happiness and astounding energy. Some looked upon my form, which by my will I
could alter to become more wolf-human like. I felt the greetings from these beings, like a
family that I had always known but had never found. It was like finding a long lost friend
who, with many tears and struggles, you had finally found.
In front of the bonfire, with flames showing the faces of the dead, stood what was known
to me as the Witches Sabbat Goat - the God of Witches. This beast stood with arms
folded, you could feel a strong sense of strength and beauty within its essence. I was not
sure if it was a god form taken by another celebrant or a collection of astral forms and
energies into this great being. The Devil was a sigil of our desire however and not a
symbol of anthropomorphic worship or death-lust as Christians often view this form. The
Morning Star nestled between his horns, and its eyes were a burning red. I could feel no
evil that night, however for the uninitiated I knew there could be much danger, since they
could not control or understand themselves. Even though we were celebrating,
Choronzon always is waiting to devour.
Many of the witches and demonic shapes began joining hands and circling the bonfire. I
heard the flutes of Pan echoing around us. Drums, repetitive and steady, sounded fast
around us as well. The musick and energy hurled us all into a lycanthropic frenzy. Each
of us began celebrating in our own individual ways, some in sexual congress, some by
dancing, many floating in the sky with a moon right above us. I had always wanted to
know why the moon on the Witches Sabbat gathering was always above us, though in
any other astral travels it was always BELOW us. I feel at this time, when the Sabbath is
called we are still in the earth dimension, though in a remote location and in astral form.
The sounds are so clear yet still muffled at the same time. I could hear wolves and such,
prowling around the fires and among the other witches. We were drawing power from the
moon, I was chanting a mantra redolent with resurgence and joy. I felt so alive and free. I
could feel the beast which was my form. I knew that which was ours for the taking.
Existence is pure joy indeed.
The female witches were indeed, as described by Spare, taking quite the active role. They
seemed to almost dominate the Sabbath, to which I took no offense and found it
beautiful. The witches, no matter how beautiful or ugly, were joyous and filled with a
burning passion. You could see and feel the Fire-Snake energy rise from them at some
points. It was now time for the incantations to begin. During the entirety of the Sabbath
many shapes slithered about, giving a surreal atmosphere to an already amazing event.
The Sabbath was then conducted with further congress and lust, for the astral form can
prove extremely stimulating on physical levels. Activity is based on the uninterrupted
91
92
coagulation of lunar energy, mainly manifested through the female. Through this male
energy may be harnessed and redirected into the inherent dream, which the Witches'
Sabbat is based upon. Much blood flows, an image of the menstrual cycle of the witch,
translated into the form of the Scarlet Woman. The Sabbath concludes with a spiral of
whirlwind activity and then awakening in the physical body. The participant generally
feels much stronger and revitalized.
The dream is the backwards gateway to the Witches' Sabbat, wherein desire is formed
into flesh. Belief exists on the consistency of experience. The following formula for the
initiation of the Astral Sabbath is derived from AO Spare and his experiences with Ms.
Paterson, who was descended from a line of Salem Witches. From the methods of ZOS,
Non-Gardnerian and Gardnerian English craft (14), as well as our own experience and
work with this lineal stream, comes this new "old" system of witchcraft and sorcery.
Before one attempts this initiation, a creative and spiritual flow must encompass every
aspect of your being. A sigil should be constructed which constitutes a dedication to the
Craft and the Path of the Wise.
The astral departure of the spirit and body within the Witches Sabbat Craft is symbolised
by the shedding of the serpents skin, of laying waste to the old in the reaching of
something new. It can be viewed as a psychic rebirth wherein a heavy weight is taken
from ones shoulders. The astral conclave is exceedingly haunting for those on uninitiated
paths who, in dream, are drawn to such a gathering. We might suspect many tales of the
Sabbath have come down to us this way. Some questions may arise, such as, "Is the
Witches Sabbat Craft and Vampiric Sorcery based only in dream?" The answer is no, it
is not, sorcery and witchcraft have their basis in time drawn secrets which are transferred
through the dreaming state. The root of understanding the whole basis of magickal
change is in delving into the great dark subconscious itself. The subconscious is linked,
as a partial gateway, to the Abyss and its guardian Choronzon. Each individual is a
carrier of the current. There are doors, linking us to the great effigy of magickal power,
within every person who is called by their lineal descent of witch blood.
This single door embraces the many symbols, be they pentacle or chaos sphere, the aim is
primarily the same - to explore and make use of the mind. To control the universe
relevant to his or her manufactured reality.
I have found that varied techniques, employed by various minds, embody a single key
and have but one significance. Through them it is possible for the inspired individual to
manipulate and control the way he or she desires. The essence of the True Will or Holy
Guardian Angel is the freedom, desire and strength to explore their entire universe of
being, from the sun filled peaks of ancient towers to the catacombs of ghastly atavisms.
All is possible to a mind of awakened light!

The teachings of old are of interest to the student and the adept for the method of
inspiration. The various methods which can be developed from the old generally result in
rebirth to the lineage. It is up to the individual to explore and rewrite many of these
methods. It is not that the old ways should be destroyed, rather they should generally be
reworked to suit the sorcerer performing such methods.
Magick and Witchcraft are but a mirror and tool of the Will, to know this is to become
beyond it! It is recommended that the aspiring sorcerer-initiate to the Witches Sabbat
Mysteries enjoy a considerable familiarity with another of the blood. The initiate should
take care however, to choose their contact wisely, many will prove useless or dangerous.
A basic sigil should be drawn out, such would be a sentence as " I DESIRE TO ATTEND
THE WITCHES SABBATH". Random letters should then be crossed out:
'IDRETTDBTH' and the rearranged: 'IDTTRDBTHE' until the sentence forms a working
symbol. The sigil should then be consecrated via sexual fluid or your own blood. It
should be placed in a pouch with herbs or other small objects which hold significance to
the sorcerer. An invocation with the Witches' Rune should be performed and the pouch
kept close to the body of the individual for several days. Once the sigil is memorized and
consecrated ritualistically, it may be placed upon the altar.
Legends also tell of Witches smearing their bodies in some obscure ointment in order to
obtain flight across the sky. One workable explanation of such tales is the Witch
obtaining flight in dream facilitated by an ointment, which would contain such fluids as
blood or sexual excretion, mixed with herbs, oils and ashes. Once the ointment is created,
a small amount should be spread over the forehead, chest or breast of the witch.
The ointments used by medieval witches were combinations of such extremely potent
herbs as Mandrake, Deadly Nightshade, Henbane, and Hemlock. These herbs would be
mixed in a base of lard and be smeared upon the body. The intention should then be
bound into the ointment, by focused concentration, before taking to the night sky in
dream. The webs of belief are always formed out of inspiration, a flash of consistent
desire which in turns recovers in the incarnation of lust.

The initiation into the Witches Sabbat mysteries is the focus of all magickal symbolism
involving things of a hidden or shadowed nature. To unveil this is to know the very
essence of what humans are, and what their varied individual goals are. Study now and
practice more. The astral Sabbat ever calls to the dreaming self, with its dark promise to
open the gates of the Watcher. All things have their basis in the astral and take flesh
through the will itself. Once one enters the gates of the Watcher then can none return, as
you will become something more. Maybe this awakening shall frighten those not of the
blood and perhaps it shall startle even those who are dedicated. After all the roots of all
ignorant belief and faith are planted in the comfortable area in which we feel 'at home';
awakening from such delusions of stability can be supremely uncomfortable.

or other and issue a single purpose for which the ID was to work. Such familiars might
take flesh in a dreaming spirit manifestation. Alternatively an actual living animal would
appear and take a liking to the witch several weeks after the evocation was made.
In modern times rural towns are being absorbed by large, populated cities, or being
abandoned. The forests are shrinking, or crashing down altogether. In this cyber age the
witch must advance with the times while holding on to traditions and inspirational points
of living. In other words they must do what is suited to their individual needs and desires
in the new situation. Familiars can be deliverers of messages upon the astral plane, if not
actually incarnate in a living animal. The familiar sigil should be focused upon before
sleep, the sigillised intention should be quite simple, expressed in a short phrase. Once
this is memorized you focus on the individual to whom it is to travel. It is very likely
someone you are in contact with already in one way or another.
Elementals in the form of animals can be useful as either atavisms or Ids, being desires
manifested in a mental and archetypal form. One particular method is as follows: Procure
a sigil which represents the form you want the familiar to take. The sigil should represent
what you are evoking. A small amount of sexual fluid could be used to charge the
Elemental, if it is of a vampiric nature then you will want to consecrate it with blood and
sexual fluid. It is possible on the waking or day side level to create an Elemental from
parts of different animals. Examples include a bat winged wolf or a fierce and rabid dog
with wings and hooves, even a sea based creature spawned from the depths of your
imagination. Such could be formed into a sigil and made to perform one particular
bidding, and the form manifested clearly upon the astral plane. Austin Spare was said to
hold a significant power, learned from Yelg Paterson his witch mother, of the creation of
exactly such spirits.
In dreams one could appear to others as having several spirits in the forms of animals or
demonic beasts swirling around him/her; either to attack or threaten a rival or enemy, or
to make a calling to a friend or lover.
Once the spirit has achieved its goal, or your goal to be precise, it is wise to destroy the
sigil and absorb the Elemental so that it returns to the dark matter of the brain. The
essence would be reassimilated into your subconscious, until formed into a new shape
according to your desires.
It was the Spring Equinox of 1999, which I had planned to attend for several weeks. I
kept an exact journal of the methods of training which enabled me to retain a sharp
memory of the experience. I had induced trance via mental ecstasy for several nights,
96
97
using different techniques including Pratayama, Asana and other methods including the
Death Posture. I felt as though I was quite ready, never using mind altering drugs for any
of the trance induction.
I had performed the Day Side Sabbat (17) as a ceremonial, with two friends, though I did
not see them attend the astral rite later that evening. After the rite we sat about and talked
for a little over an hour. Upon their departure, with great excitement, I took to further
preparing my bed chamber (where my personal altar was located at the time) and
adorning it with statues of Kali, Hecate, Lilith, Pan and prints of Austin Spare's witch
drawings.
One particular painting - a reprint which I had paced centrally on the wall, hanging above
the altar, was the Four Flying Witches piece. This depicts three witches upon the ground
in some astral state with one flying above. Quite a beautiful piece which still captivates
me to this day.
I had an incense of the four elements which represented the forces of transition by which
to obtain the communion of witch blood. Candles of black, red, blue and purple adorned
the chamber which illuminated it with a certain beauty which felt so rare that evening. It
was my intention to attend in the form of the Owl, and had created a sigil to assume the
form of this particular Id. I had felt the callings three nights before this Sabbat Eve. Now
I felt my body and form shape shift, into a dark shadow and circle the chamber until
falling back into my body.
I took a long and relaxing bath and then made the primary invocations using Spare's
Witches Sabbat text, which is in the same tradition as this Grimoire. I completed each
invocation until I retired to bed. I used a focus technique upon the Four Flying Witches
painting until I felt my body growing light. The moon light shined upon my burgundy
bed clothes, and the night wind flew lightly over the entire chamber. I lost my waking
conscious around this time. My memory served me aptly that evening, permitting me to
give a full description here as follows re-written from my journal.
The fog which was surrounding me on awakening was beautiful yet cold, I felt so cold. In
this sharp and crisp night air one could feel the coming of warmer weather. From it my
spirit gained a sense of ecstasy upon which I rode the night sky, in a seeming panic,
towards the Sabbat. When one seeks the Sabbat on the astral plane, it is all too easy to
find. Some sense tends to lead you in the direction you seek, a guide of sorts. I have
heard of some witches creating numerous Id familiars to guide them and attend the
conclave. I was seeking ever so intensely to arrive, taking the form of a night owl, and the
night sounds around me as I flew were filled with exhilaration.
I could hear the sounds of moaning and laughing in the night winds, my mind telling me
it was the many witches, beasts, wolves and vampires of the dream plane. My level of
excitement rose further upon being drawn to these haunting voices. I let out a call
sounding so very loud within my ears that it must have been heard by the ecstatic witches
and warlocks. I was joining those of the blood, those of my lineage, who continue the
great work of the Witches Sabbat path on this plane of existence. I could only wonder
later who are the many companions with whom we frolic with in these states, are they
distant coven members, some gifted one whom I hold correspondence with? A very
interesting point made by a fellow witch one evening, "We are always of night and yet
we are of the Watcher even more...’ this would imply that the Watcher/Rehctaw is the
reverse and forward method of obtaining hidden knowledge of the astral plane, the
97
98
language of the subconscious. This was the most significant point of sorcery, the
discovery of something more, something hidden which has always been before my face.
We are of the silent watcher. Know this and let this be understood by those of the blood. I
felt my shape moving towards the conclave, an opening in the forest. In this clearing I
beheld within the circle, the Black One, the Goat headed figure which was present at each
Sabbat I have attended. Always it is slightly different in its appearance: robed, with
burning crimson eyes, similar to many woodcarvings and paintings. I felt no fear as I
approached, only a growing and yearning desire to be at one with my ilk. One major
difference at this conclave, I noticed the witches were literally hags, dancing with each
other surrounded by bestial shapes and their familiars. Some of the familiars were of
strange shapes, wolf heads upon goats and black and blood red cats, dancing about in a
frenzied manner.
I noticed the flutes of Pan playing their haunting musick close within my ear, a rhythm
filled pulse reverberating within every single spirit in attendance. We were at one. The
women were wrinkled and mostly naked, their shapes writhed through the very fires
which burned at different spots within the field, I could feel their ecstasy as I looked on in
awe and astonishment. Even though I had attended a Sabbat before, the feeling which one
draws from it is something I cannot fully express. Each experience is as new as the first
time.
Various spirits would take shape within the fire, floating in and out, melting into each
contour of the fire itself. With every glance at the fire I could see a myriad of faces and
shapes forming. The ground was mist covered, congealing into further shapes which
would then dissipate.
The Black One stood within the center of the gathering, while others floated and danced.
Ecstasy was writhing within each being, visible as a yellowish hue surrounding each
witch present. The Goat headed one, surrounded by a red aura, holding both hands aloft
while two different colored flames danced from it's shapeless claws. One flame was
green and the other blue. The drums which I heard from the depths of my mind grew
pounding and loud, combined with the flutes of Pan which danced and entered each
glorious note of this primal musick.
I lost sight of the Sabbat after my last view of the hags which danced in the passion of the
night. I awoke refreshed and very happy to a beautiful morning, and immediately took to
writing the account from which this description is drawn. This is one of the more
significant Sabbaths that I have attended. This lineal inheritance of the witch cult is to
grow once again, and flourish as in many ages since the beginning of the human race. We
know within ourselves the doctrine which we cannot write in words. I am trying to
capture the essence as much as I can, a gateway to this experience, embodied in the
Grimoire now in your hands .
Sabbat Invocation
98
99
“Watcher, who art not of our sight, but hidden and reversed...
whose revolving forms are disembodied desires of my life: thus is
each shape enfleshed with life from the sigils which grant your
traffic upon this earth, WE EVOKE THEE!”
“In this moment, we forget all ills, and the dead shall rise before
us.
All pleasure and its great audience shall gather under the horned
lord.
SO MOTE IT BE!”
Art is often considered a mirror of the soul, a reflection of the inner planes of the
subconscious. From art comes compassion, anger, love, hate, happiness and passion. The
inherent dream becomes flesh through symbols denuded of conscious meaning - leaving
inspiration to flash, as a lightning strike of realization, to the heart of the master.
Austin Osman Spare's magickal weapon was art, a manifestation of a continual Sabbath
and the recurring flow of witch blood, a dance of spirits which offered a spiral staircase
to another dimension. A detailed tradition, the Witches Sabbat mystery which Yelg
Paterson, Spare's initiator and witch mother passed on to a young AOS. Descended from
99
100
a line of Salem Witches, Yelg Paterson carried enormous individual power through
which, according to AOS, she could project images into a dark corner while the
astonished observers would stare intently. The sorceries woven by Yelg and eventually
AOS would incarnate in the art and writings of Spare. This would provide a window for
this current to manifest.
To understand the system of Zos Kia in its mental expression, one must refer to his art.
His writings give only a secondary view of the magickal worlds. The Sabbat can be
obtained through his paintings and drawings, each line causing a psychonautic strain to
emerge and lift the individual towards the great and infinite Id of power. The same can be
said of other artists as well, such as Steffi Grant, Linda Falorio, Rosaleen Norton, Elda
Isela Ford and many others.
The key symbols of the Zos Kia Cultus are the Hand and the Eye. Both are the reifying
symbols of desire made flesh. The means of translation from atavistic urges, the will to
flesh and the strength to attain all within possible reach. The hand is the flesh, the
strength to make manifest what the eye believes and desires. The hand is the force of will
and the strength of focus. The hand is all touching, respectful to the will and the self as
form and entity. Kia is the formless essence of all, the heart of Besz in no form. Kia is
the eye or vulva which is the basis for Will, Desire and Belief. To focus ones energy
within Kia and utilize the interplay of Will, Desire and Belief is to make the enfleshing
union of Zos and Kia. Zos (The Hand) is the strength and maker of that which Kia (the
Eye) sees and wishes to be. The unity of the hand and the eye represents the all seeing
eye, vision and the hand which makes flesh.
The system of the Zos Kia Cultus as first described by Austin Spare is at all points
associated or enfleshed with the essence of the Egyptian God Besz, the ever changing,
ever transforming one. The Zos Kia Cultus differs from other systems which manifest
themselves through dogmatic doctrine. For example Thelemic Magick, which is based on
the maxim "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law." and "Love is the law, love
under will". Such systems are most significant in their Will training techniques through
ceremonial magick and the art of ritual. Thelema is highly recommended for those
seeking to discover the Self in its many base forms and to grow from that, building a
solid foundation based on Will, Strength, Joy and the thirst for knowledge. The Zos Kia
Cultus opens a system of self development and the explorations of sorcery by means of
self motivation.
The similarities between Zos Kia and Thelema reside in the act of Sex Magick. While
Thelema uses sex and the act of orgasm as outward directed energy, through which God
Forms are assumed or the Will is aligned with the purpose, for a result based on
knowledge and insight. The Zos Kia Cultus is inward based, using sex and orgasm to
explore the recesses of the self and the control of the Elementals both based in the
subconscious and beyond. This is Sorcery itself, the manifestation of primal gnosis for
the rectification of the atavistic automata of the self in its many forms. To understand the
Zos Kia Cultus, one must be familiar with control methods of ceremonial and hermetic
magick, the balanced and light based aspects of study. This is why Thelema is
recommended. Before entering the shadows of the self one must build a solid and strong
100
101
foundation, for the cthonic daemons of the mind shall devour and destroy the unwary fool
who would invoke the darkside. The Zos Kia Cultus is based on the foundations of
unified Will, Desire and Belief. The combination of each bestows a strong method of
sorcery which leads to impacting and significant results. The essence of the Zos Kia
Cultus exists within the inspired self constantly reshaping itself. Through this process
inherent desire become materially existent through diving the depths of the
subconscious.
Atavisms are present within the primal world of magick because they are a reversion of
consciousness to an earlier form. For this reason too, such daemonic forms often take the
shape of horrific or deformed Elementals. These are constantly changing shape and
collecting in green, red or black mist, swirling in the depths of the dark side of the brain.
Such can be useful indeed. Atavisms are implemented as a tool in focusing belief and will
until desire is crystal clear. Then within seconds of discovery of the hidden desire, the
conscious mind forgets so that the subconscious may make it reality. Atavisms and
Elementals are nothing more than servitors and deliverers of the dreams of the mind.
They serve the able sorcerer who is thus able to control his or her surroundings.
The Death Posture is a tool for forgetting the formulated belief and transferring it from
the conscious into the subconscious. This is a further interplay of the active mind with the
sleeping essence of self in zero form. By communicating via the use of Sentient Symbols
(the language which is composed of sigils) one may deal directly with the atavisms,
which exist in the depths of the subconscious, and in turn charge the desire to become
reality.
This is where the dangers of sorcery exist. Whoever communicates with atavisms, and
charges the subconscious with belief and desire, may find things come to pass in ways
one would not wish them to. Be cautious in your sorceries and invoke not that which
would devour you.
There is a great mystery, a chalice of veiled ecstasy awaiting those who taste of the death
- dream - sex gnosis by which we awake through dream into waking flesh. The inherent
dream is aligned with Thelema, based on the combination of sexual focus and will
towards a desired effect. Crowleys "Book of the Law" states the following in connection
to Babalon (made to manifest in the Scarlet Woman) and Nuit (whom Spare sought to
embody in the Zos Kia Cultus) "But to love me is better than all things: if under the
night-stars in the desert thou presently burnest mine incense before me, invoking me with
a pure heart, and the Serpent flame therein, thou shalt come a little to lie in my bosom.
For one kiss wilt thou then be willing to give all; but whoso gives one particle of dust
shall lose all in that hour." (Liber Al vel Legis. I. 61)
A partial difference is recognized between Magick and Sorcery. Magick is the essence of
the Sun, being the conscious rise towards Godhead. This suggests the key god form of
magickal work is Lucifer, the Bringer of Wisdom and the Angel of Light. Magick is of
elevation and the noble control of the Will through focus and discipline.
Sorcery and Witchcraft are most significant to Magick itself due to the essence of such.
Sorcery is the reverse of the Solar Path, it is of the Moon, hereditary of the exploration of
atavisms and the hidden aspects of the self. Sorcery is the child of Asmodeus,
demon/angel of flesh made pleasure and drawing towards the sleeping self. Lilith and
101
102
Hecate are both the mother of witchcraft and sorcery, lunar fountains emanating the
witch blood which all flows backwards into form.
Zos represents and is considered 'The Body as a Whole', symbolising the mind, body and
spirit. Zos is represented by the Eye or Vulva of woman, that which executes the
imagination. Kia is the atmospheric "I", an astral cosmic self connected to its latent desire
and activity. Kia is the Hand or Phallus of man, which makes incarnate the Will. The
result of their union being manifestation through will and desire. The union of the hand
and eye is termed by Spare as 'Becoming all sensation'. An ocean of dead forms, shaped
according to their past loves and lusts, by which flesh is made known through belief.
Sigil making, a form of what ZOS termed 'Sentient Symbols' (18) , is a pictorial means of
enfleshing the desire by belief and exhaustion (i.e. sexual or sensory deprivation). The
ghosts urge a flow with each drop of blood given from the mouth of Asmodeus and
Hecate. Continual streams of inspiration cascade in fountainesque patterns of lunar sight.
The effect of 'sigilization' or ' sigil making ' is not a means of explaining the sorceries of
ZOS, however only a useful tool or method of focus made flesh. Sigils can be made in
ANY WAY which is useful and inspirational to the sorcerer, in whom the desire of
belief is to awaken the onward and creative flow of inspiration. The Gods speak through
our sparkling inner sight, through our joy, anger, love and hate.
The source and definition of Spares sorcery lies within the witch cult that fueled his
inspiration. Yelg Paterson, a figure shrouded in mystery, gives answers in the light of the
moon between dusk and dawn where the veil is thin. Any working to contact Witch
Mother Paterson demands individual interpretation or fictional inspiration to create
belief, and later manifestation, within the individual. The Zos Kia Cultus must be an
individual development, created as his or her own system based around the alphabet of
desire. The finer applications of such a system operate according to individual knowledge
and interest.
102
103
Nu - Moon Rite
Atavistic Resurgence
Nuit, Goddess of space and the night sky, proves to be a significant key to attainment of
hidden knowledge and magickal development. The hidden knowledge I speak of is the of
the vast, and often unexplored, subconscious symbolised by the Night Sky or Space. The
adventure of exploration is the secret of the development of the individual sorcerer.
Animal atavisms which inhabit the human brain can be categorized as two types. Some
typify forms of pre-human consciousness; other strains have linked themselves with the
human psyche and genetics. In the final analysis either kind can be defined as totems by
Shamans. Lycanthropy is nothing more than rites of atavistic resurgence, either on a
dream level, in which the Egyptians were so skilled; or upon the waking level: as when
strength or stealth are obtained or invoked during moments of dire need.
Austin Osman Spare's image of "Nu Moon Rite" (illustrated in Kenneth Grant's "Aleister
Crowley and the Hidden God", published by SKOOB) holds significant keys to atavistic
resurgence. It is often the case with the paintings of AOS, as his true hidden genius was
his art, that many keys of magickal study can be obtained through meditating upon them.
The drawing presents several faces, some animal, some human and others a combination
of both. The many keys which exist in the art and writings of AOS are paramount. Those
who sip from the cup of Hecate shall taste the essence of their own personal Holy
103
104
Guardian Angel, the True Will Discovered. This provides the essential clarity and
stability, the strength of conviction, direction and will required to flourish in the pursuit
of magick and sorcery. To control and materialize your will upon earth one must first
master all within the night side, that of dreaming... All will then manifest in due course.
The Lunar aspect of the formula is essential, as the birth force. The balanced formula
conjoins the Sun (male energy) and Moon (female energy) for creation and birth.
The Nu Moon Rite was constructed after the image of AOS for the use of awakening
sleeping atavisms, for purposes of obtaining strength, stealth, introspection or magickal
knowledge. The ritual involves the use of lycanthropic masks. The mask should be made
or accented by yourself and should be made to symbolize the essence of the atavism you
wish to awaken. Approach the rite with incense and any trappings which would add to
this context of ritualistic lycanthropy.
The sigil should now be consecrated with sexual fluid and then absorbed and destroyed.
The sorcerer should now banish and forget. Your dreams that evening, if you focus upon
the spirit invoked, should reflect the level of the subconscious where the spirit dwells. A
useful aspect of the atavism rite is to call upon it in the time of need. If you require
stealth, speed or strength simply recall the sigil mentally and bring forth it's immense
power.
104
105
This is an Elemental working to evoke the influence of Witch Mother Paterson. Such an
Elemental would be ideal in the search for Witches Sabbat knowledge, or inspiration.
Use an image of Paterson, of which Spare has drawn several, or create your own
according to your mental picture of the Witch Mother. The sigil should be inscribed with
Qabalistic or Planetary attributes according to what you wish to obtain. Burn the candles
and with a focused and creative imagination create the spirit image of Yelg.
105
106
At the moment of orgasm, consecrate the Witch Sigil and visualize your interpretation of
Yelg. This Elemental shall be born of such desire. This Elemental can serve one of two
purposes, though only one should be selected. These purposes are firstly sexual congress,
which presents the danger of obsession which should be avoided at all costs.
Alternatively, extracting craft wisdom in this spirit form can manifest knowledge in
various ways. Among the most interesting of these is Automatic writing, where thoughts
of the Yelg image inspire writings which provide useful information. This may be either
finely detailed or disorganised and highly symbolic. Significant knowledge in the form of
voices or pictures may also be accessed in multilayered dreams. Once the particular goal
of the evocation is performed, the witch should banish and destroy the sigil, to reabsorb
and uncreate this Elemental. The purpose being to avoid obsession which could derive
from long term contact with such a spirit.
"As I laid upon the crimson sheets I felt the cold, numbing hands of Hecate lull my body
to sleep. All became spirit... all became dream.
I was witness to much lightning... fire engulfing the patch where the lightning struck,
burning flames surrounded by greenish vapor.
I felt my spirit-self casting forth in the night, unafraid of this lightning. It seemed that this
powerful force was nothing more than a vision of what was to be, an emanation would
occur on the material - day side plane. When we walked, the spirits laughed and all was
forever in a state of change.
The still of the night is a confirmation of our rising... how we ride the night winds,
casting in joyous laughter in the blowing breeze, over crops and fields. Our great desires
carry our familiars through a forest deep...
Moving in merry visions of ghosts and the riding of the four winds...
The eight legs of the spider dance lightly over our spirits, protecting through the tunnels
where we rest. The Abyss grants our smiling children to give birth again to more
Elementals... Again they shall flourish... always they flourish... given birth by blood and
will. Animals who roam the wildlands in our semblance... regaining all that we are....all
that we strive for... harmony is yet a consistent memory of defined knowledge... lies?
Hold them fast in our desire... our sigil covered in our gift of blood... our sweat and blood
and our dreams... ALL!! A black eagle is rising... In awe and joy we behold... our love!
Our gift! Asmodeus, tongues of fire dance across the night sky, granting unending desire.
As the fire of our spirit rising in the great sky, let our essence dance in the arms of
Hecate, a burning passion so noble in its love...”
Black Eagle
106
107
Black Eagle is what Austin Spare defined as an intrusive familiar. An intrusive familiar is
an automata or Elemental with a degree of detachment (under will) from the sorcerers
subconscious. Such Elementals, if already existing outside of the sorcerers mind, then
grow from an automatic Elemental or servitor to a seeming spirit with a driven nature of
its own. It is up to the sorcerer to make use of the automata of the subconscious to form
an intrusive Elemental to remain under control of will. This can be a dangerous operation
if the magickian is not skilled in sorcery and invocation/evocation. Spirits which are
called from the atavisms of the depths of the mind are often horrific and self destructive if
not properly controlled and channeled. This can lead to cases of madness, schizophrenia,
even what some lower religions call "possession". One of the more significant spirits
which we have worked with was one called Black Eagle.
Our work with Black Eagle began in 1998 upon discovering a significant image of the
spirit. Black Eagle is described as an American Indian guide, but we have uncovered
numerous vampiric elements of it's nature. A feature of this is that during dreams Black
Eagle will appear in a blood red or black background, as if you are entering its plane of
existence. This is why I refer to Black Eagle as a spirit beyond definition as an Elemental.
I had first approached Black Eagle as a Qliipothic spirit, this was not entirely correct as
Black Eagle was an American Indian spirit. American Indian Sorcerers were actually
Shamans who practiced a high discipline, entering alternate states of being, the self same
states that Spare termed as "Neither - Neither" - the Abyss. The underworld and the
waking world were often explored in depth connections between the spirit and the flesh.
Many such journeys or explorations were under the web of sleep where dream becomes
flesh. Shamans are masters of the in between worlds, from whence witchcraft derives - it
is a mastery of both flesh and spirit. The adept of such magick and sorcery is bound to the
earth, and with numerous skills and practice can later leave the physical body at will in
order to go between worlds. Or even to take on the flesh of another. A wise Sorcerer
would seek to master both the methods of Shaman and Magickian, both the solitary and
the Ceremonial, great keys of knowledge exist through both.
Black Eagle appears often as a pale Indian spirit, either black, blue or red robed.
Sometimes this ‘Elemental’ appears in brown leather hides, with leathery skin which is
abnormally pale and with burning black eyes. There have been occasions however when
Black Eagle had no precise form at all, manifesting merely as a gray or different coloured
shapeless mass. Communication with Black Eagle is either done through it showing
images to your mind or through words, either a tongue which is not easily understood or
with a heavy north American Indian accent.
If the mind is clear of dogma concerning Black Eagle, then one will obtain clear speech
at some point. This is where one should implement the use of a magickal diary or
notebook next to your bed. Upon waking, one should take extensive notes of all of the
images and words that appeared to you. The evocation method of Black Eagle is simple
yet effective. You must first obain a clear image expressing the essence of Black Eagle.
Be warned however, this spirit is not to be played with and can induce madness or
something worse.
Several interesting questions to pose to the student would be the following:
·If Black Eagle is merely an Elemental, why would such appear much more powerful
than any normal servitor that one would have created?
107
108
·If Black Eagle is already a spirit connected with vampirism, why is one not able to evoke
it through the Qlippothic system?
·Often such spirits are bound to the earth, as within rites of Black Magick and Sorcery,
could such eventually take the flesh of another?
-Our work with Black Eagle has proven it to be a very powerful vampire spirit, adept in
sorceries which would possible cause a initiate student to fall prey to its apparent
"charms". Proceed with caution because such a mighty Daemon knows no compassion
for the naked spirit. Substance is substance. Once a sigil is consecrated, the spirit may
manifest in various ways and not always for the best. It is significant to mention however
that if one sought to evoke/invoke such an Elemental the purpose must be clear and
precise when transmitted to such an entity.
-Qlippothic spirits and Elementals are often 'shells' or shades of the dead, given substance
by astral blood or 'chi' from the living. Qlippothic spirits which exist beyond the sphere
of Da’ath are sometimes very powerful yet directionless. Given this tendency the sorcerer
with a strong will can channel and control such a daemon without falling prey. Qlippothic
spirits are generally not 'earth-bound' per se but operate between the lines of the outer or
astral world. Once they are evoked however, and given a vessel such as a consecrated
bottle or sigil, then they remain earth-bound until banished or absorbed. The rites of
vampirism call for their evocation and ultimate absorption for individual power and
insight into the Daemonic or Cthonic realm.
-Qlippothic Elementals become dangerous if consecrated and left to their own devices by
not being assigned one particular task or purpose and NOT banished and absorbed. They
will grow in their essence by feeding from the binder until they either find another host or
take the flesh and mind of the sorcerer who originally summoned them. The magick of
Solomon and the nature of his work point clearly to this danger.
Daemons which are bound to the earth generally exist between the astral and living
world, jumping from one to the other. Their will remains intact as well as much of their
personality. Over a period of time these spirits will gradually fade from existence,
subsisting only as poltergeists or other such nearly harmless shades until oblivion claims
them. This is the prime difference between Qlippothic and 'outer' spirits and earth bound
'ghosts'.
The danger which comes from earth bound black magickians who leave their flesh in
death is that the possibility of becoming a vampire is imminent. Vampire spirits exist
between both worlds just as ghosts and such, however their personalities and astrals
remain intact due to the fact that they drain life force from earthly living creatures. The
main victims are humans who, unknowingly, call out to them in dreams. Thus the
vampire spirit will go from body to body, guided by the individual sleeper, and drink of
their life force. Some magickians have the ability of eventually entering the flesh of
another and continuing their existence in this manner. Many tales of possession were also
spawned this way.
A mistake is often made concerning Daemonic spirits such as those of ‘The Goetia of
Solomon’ and others of similar type. Aleister Crowley wrote that such spirits represent
108
109
parts of the brain, but this is not entirely true. While Elementals such as these have roles
and names by which we align them with the subconscious, the essence of such a being is
actually of two parts, being astral as well as mental. The combination of both ultimately
is the formula of their manifestation. This of course is subject to the most significant rule
of magick, sorcery and all forms of evocation/invocation: Will, Desire, Belief.
The essence of such spirits is of the Qlippoth and in order to bind them an object or
talisman must be employed. These can be rather simple in nature but very potent - even
dangerous - in terms of practical results. It is through the rapid procession of ritual
gnosis that one is able to transpire the body of ego and step outside the flesh.
There exist several images of Black Eagle, by which Spare offers even further valuable
inspiration. The spirit can be contacted via the images which AOS created, of which he
believed, each line holds a consistent contact point which would invoke this Elemental.
Black Eagle is viewed by myself and Coven Nachttoter as a vampiric spirit, existing
through the backwards cycle of the neither-neither concepts. He leads those in contact
with him into the 'fruitful grove' of the mind, whence all desires emerge, by means of the
Id familiars created by the sorcerer.
Black Eagle is the ideal object of an evocation, for vampiric exploration (in the dream
state), for the purposes of obtaining knowledge, or feeding from chi or lunar life force. I
am therefore giving a detailed description of the techniques, and a record of one of the
workings, conducted by Coven Maleficia . The purpose of this rite is to obtain
astral/dream contact with this spirit who reportedly fueled a portion of the Salem witch
cult.
The altar should feature traditional candles, numerous flowing colors which are attractive
or hold some magickal significance to you personally. Images of Black Eagle should also
be hung around the altar. AOS created several different images of this spirit which are
worthy of a search. It is also recommended and even more magically potent to create
your own sigil or painting of Black Eagle. Incense smoke should be billowing throughout
the chamber. The altar should be adorned with human or animal bones. This represents
the connection to the earth as well as a summoning tool of spirits. Ancient Tibetan monks
would create human thigh bone trumpets to purify and to summon the dead, holding in
their temples great occult energies which could be harnessed for nearly any magickal act.
Human bones are obtainable from various medical supply companies, offering generally
reasonable prices. You may wish to charge bones to be magickal tools by consecrating
them with your blood or sexual fluid, followed by sigils or talismans. If a skull is
available then the sigil of Black Eagle may be painted on it, as it can then be used as a
focus and material basis for the Elemental.

images which fleshed in the waking world as symbols and flourishing art. These were
given life by Soror Davcina and word by Akhtya Seker Arimanius, shadows that
transcend personality as Coven Maleficia. All things to be regarded as beautiful and
hideous. The gates we crashed open called not only Black Eagle but numerous other
Elementals, spirits and daemons of great inspiration and maliciousness. To protect, from
the latter of which, we must build our astral walls.
Each night I had been visited, haunted and called to by a mysterious woman. I later
understood her personality as an extension of Yelg Paterson, I had tried to keep a
distance from her, not knowing the sensual danger and passion which could be mine for
the taking. The desire was catching up with me, not just for any mere sexual congress, for
something greater, more powerful and dynamic than before. I searched for this lady only
by her invitation. I could feel a cold wind take me from my chamber window. This of
course by my own acceptance. I understood that I had actually known her once, in order
to be waking into her dream. She was within a cold, stone constructed ruin of a building,
something of an ancient temple. Worn with age and often bitter temperatures, I could feel
the vast solar and nocturnal rites which had taken place long before. Time frozen traces
of Solar birth rites, and ceremonies which celebrated strength and joy. These ruins now
held the tomb and chamber of my woman who continued to call me. It was her essence,
extended astrally, which caused me something like the day side loss of breath. I felt cold
yet strong. Strength was because of lack of fear.
The snow which collected in this forgotten temple only added to the sense of isolation
and what desolate kind of place it was. I could hear some kind of predatory birds in the
background. Perhaps they were ravens or such, they seemed to fly closer and then break
away into the distance. This sound went in a cycle, or so it seemed, from the time I
began approaching this lair.
The arched doorway, old heavy oak carved into a lavish and noble wolf head, guarded
against any approach. Since I felt welcomed and wanted it was by that urging I entered
the doorway. I do not recall specific details on the exact layout of the rooms except they
were lit by dim burning candles. I felt her essence close by, so I drew my astral further
into the chambers, until I found myself going down a staircase made of stone. The stone,
even in this blue toned light, was gray and worn. There is a kind of pride and character to
old brick and stone, often worn with stories of age and struggle. I knew a part of myself
was home as I drifted down each stair. It is a very odd and surreal feeling to know a part
of you is home especially if you have never traveled there. I only knew a mistress from
the shadows, whose ivory white hand seemed so smooth and comforting, beckoned me
every moment. I was anxiously waiting for the moment when I could see her again. This
time I knew I would not avoid her or resist her call. I knew also that she was quite aware
of my presence, but not when she would make herself known to me. I could feel
something of her all around; a scent of some beautiful old fragrance. So beautiful a tear
would catch in your eye and you would know you were home. The sense of strength
which permeated the incense saturated atmosphere was choking. Not in a stifling or
negative way, but making one quite aware that the lady of the ruins has conisderable
control here.
I felt a sense of heat as I reached a chamber door which was made of the same quality
wood which adorned the front entrance. As I stood there for those moments, time seemed
to grow even slower, as if I had chosen it that way by some backwards means of
111
112
telepathy. I was beginning to observe countless shapes which were products of many
dreams and nightmares flowing in chaos with each other. Each face would take on the
attribute of what people generally consider beautiful and go to the extreme of ugliness,
even demonic, with a sense of darkness and poison.
I felt no fear but fascination, a deep calling to the levels of my mind so often touched by
this beauty. Was this a creation of hers or my own? Perhaps both the more I think about
it. I started through the wooden door, etched with a wolf head and what could be celtic
carvings. Once I passed through the door I knew she would be waiting, as she always had
been. As I passed through I gained sight of the chamber and finally the witch. She stood
prominent in the shadows of the room, standing behind a slow burning fire. Robed and
hooded in black and what could be night blue, she was sounding a beautiful and almost
haunting mantra, by which the quality of her voice was displayed. It seemed to be both
fairy-tale like and haunting at the same time, as if a dual or double headed spirit was
made manifest through her.
I could finally see her eyes as I drew closer, how dark they were, reflecting a burning
passion I had only known through a Scarlet Woman. How deeply I yearned for the taste
of her astral flesh, that which was formed through her own thought and will. The lips,
gray yet with a red hue to them, were somewhat full and sensual. Her robes as I studied
were even more ornate than I had previously noticed. The black material on the collar
was decorated with many sigils and seals. I noticed too some very eccentric designs that
added to the flavor of her overall appearance.
Once her mantra was finished, she focused upon my appearance and stature on the astral
plane. I took no beast like form at the moment, I appeared in the vestments of the
ceremony, robed and hooded. The witch took sinuous steps towards me, with the grace of
a cat or other predatory animal, as if to taste her prey. With both hands she took down my
hood and withdrew slightly. As she was close to me it was her will to take her hood off as
well. I could now see the beauty which she possessed within this sphere of stored energy.
Watching her intently I understood why I was here, what brought me here, and why she
stared so purposefully upon my every move.
I embraced her, only to feel a surge of electricity and chaos. I felt a star of burning edges
glow above us, shaking the astral foundation of her domain. I felt so alive at that moment,
knowing it would not last forever but in my dreams and memory... There was a transfer
of energy, a sacrifice to each other. I could feel the strength of her embrace as she could
surely feel mine... a woman of red, blue and black passions which surged through ever
aspect of her being.
It was then that a flash occurred and we were apart. I was floating through a corridor
within her temple... I was moving below ground at a steady pace. These ruins were
beautiful... so dark, shadow like and serene. Yet in all of this, a touch of the sinister and
the macabre still lingered. I however find that most appealing of all. I began to notice
remains of the dead. Mostly corpses, white eyes still lay intact within them... staring upon
what must have been Da’ath. As I entered a chamber at the end of the corridor I
understood that this room was an ancient mortuary, a room of rest as I would call it. A
dozen or more corpses were at various points of the room. The scent was beautiful and
cold, the smell of the dead floated through the air... covering all in a blanket of decay.
This was not the rotting smell mind you, nothing so sickening, it was an ancient scent
reminiscent of the dead. The dead in the room had another characteristic along with their
112
113
white eyeballs. They were also surrounded by a gray-blue colored energy field, which
was their astral body. For some reason this form had not faded in death as in most cases,
but rested in and around each body. A death-mask of a skull like face covered each head,
floating in ghostlike energy. I felt very comfortable here... perhaps the dead were created
Elementals who served the sexual desires of the witch with whom I had grown mutually
fond.
Swift and sudden came her entrance to that chamber. She appeared as a great and noble
Lady, her respectability overtaken by the force of overwhelming passion. I observed as
only I could do at this moment, watching every move in a controlled state of astral
awakening. She was no longer clothed in the finery in which I made her acquaintance
however. A black night robe adorned her body, with crimson red flower petals
embroidered upon it, with what seemed to be nothing underneath.
Her astral flesh had formed itself into so refined and haunting a beauty. Ivory white flesh
so smooth and tight, her own devised psycho-physical ‘desire body’ was exhilarating.
Her breasts were firm and ample, in keeping with her lean, well proportioned body. She
stood near the center of the chamber, holding out her arms towards the ceiling, and her
robe opened to bare her beautiful body even further. I glimpsed at her method of
summoning the dead.
The witch began chanting a mantra composed of a short sentence, which rolled off her
tongue with beauty and grace, like an age old song in a forgotten language. The spirits
began encircling her in a tornado like spirit storm. I felt her mind enter ecstasy, passion
and control beyond every limit of what is possible. I wanted to join in so much but could
do nought but stand in place and watch, motionless in frozen time. The dead now seemed
to focus in on one particular corpse, a skeleton in a white funeral shroud. With her hand
she reached for the corpse and a long and fairly thick white rib was in her possession.
Thus grasping it she cast a fervent gaze upon it, full of unspeakable lust and desire. Ivory
white and very clean looking, this human bone would prove to be an instrument of joy
and desire this evening. The witch lowered it to her vagina and with a stroking, slow
pace, proceeded to glide it through her lips and into the entrance. I heard the cries of lust
and passion as it began probing into her and her hand began to move slowly in and out.
Her moist astral body seemed so real and so fine that I was growing in excitement
watching. I kept my urges controlled even though my own desire wanted her and the dead
very badly.
Her hand began moving faster and with more lust and intent. The searing sight of human
bone going deeper and deeper into her moist opening fully awakened the fire snake of my
astral. The contrast of the white bone with the firm, pale flesh of her legs was an
astonishing view. It was AOS who gave the key, "Heaven is ecstasy...", this WAS heaven
on the astral plane, or so it felt that evening several years ago.
The spirits of the dead and the Elementals who served this witch began encircling her and
her moans and heat grew. I knew the desire she built into this mind-sigil was powerful
and beautiful. Much of the spirit-energy seemed to engulf the bone which was being
tunneled deep within her. Tunneling with a pace akin to the desire and control I would
have inside of her. At the moment of climax, the spirits seemed to explode and dissipate
and I felt a blinding jerk back into my body. The moment my conscious began coming
back I knew my erection in my physical body was great. I wanted her but obsession is not
113
114
an option. Only control and strength. Throughout my life there have been times when I
could grow only by being strong and facing the most difficult situations. Even though my
more reckless urges told me different. I reached a point of waking conscious and gave
myself such comfort, I had met this special witch... I would meet her again I knew.
Obsession can develop if the sorcerer becomes too involved with the desire for meeting,
or for an experience, such that the conscious becomes entirely focused on it. Obsession
becomes failure due to the fact that the subconscious is not able to set in motion the
proper paths for the desire to become flesh. The conscious must forget the desire as much
as possible and focus on something else. Once this can be done, the desire will become a
fact based in flesh. If not, failure results in abiding anger in the individual, and leads to
further troubles down the road.
Creation of Elementals
" 'All things are subject to resurrection’, thus spake smiling Aaos, on rising from the
dead. Then turning towards his shadow, 'I come! The changing word that destroys
religion, a vortex wind that shall jest in temples!'" - (AOS The Focus of Life)
Elementals are described as created spirits which are connected to the sorcerer's will.
Many of these are created in highly intense rites which can either be hermetic or
ceremonial in nature. It is however of major importance that the sorcerer does not
become obsessed with his creations, as Elementals can become uncontrollable. Such
spirits can be made manifest or created through an act of atavistic resurgence, which is
described in the creation rite. Elementals should be bound by the powers of a particular
element such as water, fire, air or earth. The Sorcerer would also bind an Elemental to an
object, as for instance a vase, a sigil painted or drawn on paper, a box, a doll, etc.. If one
wished to destroy or absorb the Elemental once its task was complete then the ideal
method would be to destroy the object in the course of a banishing ritual. When
Elementals are born of atavistic desires then the control aspect will come to test the
sorcerers mental strength and control. Elementals, as mentioned before, can be used as
protectors of the body when in astral projection/dreaming, and carry forth spells and
workings. They act as a subconscious messenger, focused on one object or goal which is
the desire. It is for this reason that one does not become allow any particular Elemental
spirit to develop to the point where it can obsess the mind. If allowed to do so the
Elemental can wreak havoc on many levels, causing a growing form of madness, for
which Choronzon awaits.

You should have the following items on the altar once it is prepared:
Athame, Sword, Wand, Chalice and Inverted Pentagram
A special sigil designed to invoke the werewolf atavism which shall be consecrated and
destroyed.
The Chalice and elixir
Wolf skin or item which can be worn as a wolf belt or skin
Werewolf Mask
This rite should include an offering of your own blood, which should be held in a goblet
or chalice not to be drunk, however but to store the life force with which the wolf spirit
will be invoked. The chamber or area should be darkened with illuminating candles,
sigils should be painted on the body:
The sigil of the spirit Marchosias (1) obtained from the Goetia of Solomon, from the
author's personal experience, this spirit’s aid proves a significant benefit, and the sigil
should be available for the purpose of visualization.
The wolf hook rune
The sign of Luna (the moon and it's current)
The sign of Saturn (Death and transformation)
The sign of Mars (blood and sex)
The wolf skin should be worn
Please note that Mars is also the Planet of War and aggression Such energies should be
controlled and channeled through the self. There they are refined as Lycanthropic power
within the conscious mind, and bound to the particular Elemental which you are
invoking. A circle should be made on the ground, around seven feet in diameter, large
enough for one to move about in. This circle should be made counter clock wise and
consecrated with the dagger. It is advised that the altar be near this circle, so that one is
able to still physically touch the objects on it if necessary. The dagger should be held
towards the werewolf sigil which was made earlier, and the following recited:
The Invocation
"Hail, Hail, Hail great Wolf spirit, HAIL!
116
117
Begin a visualization and concentration of the werewolf sigil, take the goblet of blood
and make two strikes of blood on the sigil. Focus upon the sigil and a great wolf spirit
forming and entering the surroundings. Breathing at a rapid pace is suggested, as it will
direct the mind towards an altered state of conscious. Upon reaching this state a mantra
should be chanted and repeated as many times as you so desire. The mantra should be
formed from something simple as, "I will become as the werewolf", which if phonetically
altered would spell something like "I w’l ecom WEREWOLF". This should be recited
while focusing upon nothing but the sigil. Concentration should cease momentarily for
the reciting of the following nocturnal oath:
Take now the chalice of your chosen elixir, and seal now the oath:
Begin focusing upon the sigil of Marchosias, a new mantra being formed: "Marchosias
shall manifest through blood" becomes "Marchosias s'al mnfest blood". Focus upon this
117
118
mantra and sigil, moving your hand and magickal weapon (usually the dagger) either
laterally or in some "automatic" pattern, until the spirit begins to form. In my experience
blood may only give partial life to these spirits, they may only become partially manifest,
or incompletely visible. During such manfestations these spirits may make sudden noises,
such as knocking into something, voices across the chamber, scraping noises etc. If
possible, take a photograph of these rites, near the altar while you are still in the circle.
You may find such surprises as spirit orbs, ghostlike limbs, figures, lines of spirit energy
and similar phenomena.
Once you have entered the ecstasy of evoking the spirit, return once again to your
invocation.
Begin a mantra again which should be the same as the first mentioned one ("I w'l ecom
WEREWOLF"), focus with all concentration attainable upon the personal sigil, which
you have consecrated in your blood. Upon the climax of words and self congress the
sigil should be destroyed by fire and a banishing by laughter performed. You may wish to
perform a banishing ritual of the Pentagram or Hexagram, depending of course on
personal preference.
Once the sigil is destroyed, toss the ashes into the wind and go forth in the web of
dreams. You will begin noticing astral/dream transformations and huntings. Others
seeking Lycanthropic desires will call or come to you on the night side. Nightly
exchanges of astral blood and sexual union in the form of the beast are not uncommon for
the initiated.
118

walking, to invoke the wolf spirit. Through this I first contacted what was later known to
me as what AOS called an ‘atavism’. After a few moments of concentration I felt a great
shadow grow within me, strength pulsated through my body, powerful enough to block
out the severe pain I was going through. I felt only the pressing need to get to the location
we were headed. About forty five minutes later, of gruelling slow paced snow "walking",
we arrived. The same was the case on the way home, which was just as cold if not colder.
Though I did learn caution from the experience it is nonetheless pleasant, and even
essential, to know one is capable of calling forth an animal atavism when the occasion
demands.
119
120
(both beginning and later in the rite, minutes before destruction of sigil) have a powerful
sphere of energy around them. The wolf sigil may be embellished with nocturnal
emblems and lunar images, less boldly portrayed than the main sigil. By use of such
corresponding symbolism the lycanthropic power may be further refined and attracted.
Such symbols as a crescent moon and your personal power sign are always
recommended. Please be aware though, by doing such a rite you are invoking a very
dangerous part of yourself, which the mind does not normally consciously occupy. The
beast itself will rise to the surface in response to the call. One should not attempt this
shaman-witch rite until considerable Will and self control has been attained.
A triangle should be prepared in the room of choice, taking care to make certain
unwanted individuals do not come visiting - this bestial state of mind is not the safest for
those not of close kinship. The triangle should be painted in black, with blood-red lines
around the outside. This shape should be large enough for your body to fit in while sitting
or upon all fours. Those not wanting to paint up the floor - because of carpetting or such -
may wish to purchase a large piece of material and then paint the triangle upon it.
At each point of the Triangle a red candle should be placed. It is wise to prepare musick
which involves rapid beats - perhaps voudon inspired musick or rhythm based recordings.
A rather violent flavor should be present in the sounds which will pulsate through the air
of the chamber. The sorcerer shall then paint upon his body such sigils as represent the
beast and its lunar nature. A sigil involving the combination of sex - death - Moon - Birth
sign can be formed as one power-packed unit. Your sight shall then become much more
focused, everything transforming into a fire spiral of self realization.
Clear your mind so it may enter into spheres of rapid and lustful inspiration. The red and
black colors about your chamber should heighten the sense of the forces invoked. If you
are able to have assistance in this Lunar rite, have the assistants sitting at opposite sides
of the Triangle with you in the middle. The flames should be lit. The task of the
assistants is to carry your voice further into the astral plane, calling to the animal spirits
from which you came into flesh, hidden away from the ages of growing humanity.
The sigil should be consecrated in advance of the rite with sexual fluid, the result of focus
upon the object until climax. Once this is done, several drops of your own blood should
be dropped on the center of the sigil. It is recommended that one does not think about the
sigil in the time period after the initial consecration. It should then sit for roughly 24
hours before the actual rite.
120

to the evokation of spirits and higher sorcery. A banishing ritual serves to clear the mind
of any non-magickal thoughts, a sort of temporary "exorcism" if you will.
Invocation
RINMPS ZIPLL, VOVIM LONDOH MARB LEVANAEL,
Rinmps Zipll, demonic element - Fire of Earth, Dragons'
kingdom according to Levanael,
Focus with intent upon the sigil, give it life by the inspiration glowing within every ounce
of your individual being! It is most important that you understand everything is possible
unto your own will. To begin to realize that everything is basically a man-made lie, you
understand that all things are subject to change within your own personal world and that
which you choose to embark upon! EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE within ecstasy!
Stimulation should occur until orgasm. While masturbating, focus upon this sigil and the
life you are bringing forth merely by the choice of will. Feel a beast rise within you, a
new source of immense energy and excitement is at your disposal. Upon climax,
visualize the sigil in all ways and forget its purpose. It is at this point that all is possible
because of pure will and focused intent.
It is of the first importance that you control your chanting. Even though it may be your
most fervent desire to fully envelop yourself in this psychodrama, it is most important for
the dream working after that CONTROL is retained. When rites are planned as exercises
and battle awakenings, then one should indulge in full psycho dramatic ecstasy. When
however the will must stay intact to orchestrate a pure state of modification - which will
compensate for the sacrificed sexual release - one must pay heed to control.
121
122
The musick within the chamber should drive one to a seeming frenzy, almost thrashing
movements and animalistic passion enveloping you in abrupt, yet manageable spasms of
movement. Lycanthropic nature derives from the most basic instincts of man’s bestial
ancestors. The basis of human nature lives in the caverns of the mind, wherein all things
secret constitute the light of inspiration. This light is composed of many colors, and of
many flames.
Kundalini (the Sacred Fire Serpent, magickal Energy) should be fully awakened at this
point, even after the sexual release earlier. (A wonderful tantric exercise is to control
stimulation after an actual orgasm. The purpose being to build up discipline which can
strengthen and further develop the will as it is).
The rite can also be performed with the purpose of astral projection, assuming the dream
flesh in its most bestial form. Suddenly hold yourself still on all levels, do not move your
limbs in a chaotic frenzy. Simply hold the self in check, allowing a strange sense of calm
to overtake your rapid beating heart.
Recite:
One should now burn the sigil of desire, cast it to the night spirits and the Elementals
which you have created with pure desire and belief. Allow the circle around your being to
send forth this now subconscious desire once and for all. You must now forget it. All
reminders should fly with the smoke out of the window into the night sky. So mote it be...
Banishing is the next step following the destruction of the sigil. A banishing rite could be
made up of hysterical laughter, in which the mind is let loose on the conscious level from
focus and consistent thought processes. When laughter occurs one is as close as one can
be to the Death Posture on a conscious level.
Once the banishing rite is complete, the sorcerer should retire shortly after to bed. Upon
laying down for the evening, focus your thoughts on rising and the thrill of shape shifting
and riding the night winds. Keep a detailed journey of such dreams: it is recommended
that you keep a journal near your bed in which to write your dream experiences AS
SOON as you awake, this enables the brain to keep higher awakening levels of memory
active in the conscious. After several weeks of doing this, you will begin to notice that
your dreams are becoming more vivid. A vision may arise that provides a key for many
‘openings’. This is one such, if you will:

Those wishing to integrate sorcery into their daily lives to a more viviid extent will find
sigils the most effective means of doing so The following is an exercise based on
lycanthropy and sigil recalling. If one is in need of strength or speed, stamina or
nocturnal direction, I would suggest from personal experience the use of sigils for calling
upon their lycanthropic spirit. If the individual has practiced lycanthropy based in dream
control and other such rites, then such an atavism will be more accessible to them as a
magickian. The recommended working can be done in several varied ways. Upon a piece
of scrap paper you write a sentence encapsulating your desire. A sentence such as:
"I will obtain the instincts of a wolf"
You would the re write the words below by taking out various letters, the same way you
constructed the other sigils: (this is ONLY one method, by way of example, and not
intended for copying, unless compatible with your alignment and ability.)
"IW'LLTNNSICO'AWLF"
One the flip side of the paper, re arrange the letters to form an interlocking symbol, where
there is no recognition possible of the original message of the letters. Once this is done,
focus upon this intently for several moments, memorizing each line and the sigil as a
whole. If not using a sexual stimulation technique, focus more upon the sigil and then
burn or tear it to pieces. Forget this symbol however still concentrate upon your will.
Keep you muscles tense and feel the wolf take flesh. You should then feel a strong and
aggressive force within the center of your being, act now upon this spirit which is so
much a part of you. Too many people forget the importance of studying and seeking to
123
124
understand our shadow side, when one passes through the shadow self and delves into the
depths of the subconscious you are acquiring keys to primal atavisms and latent powers
of the mind. These are just waiting to be exercised, and are the fountainhead of much
practical magick. The key is in you hands, after many years of relying upon society’s
mindless programming, whereby one loses hope of discovering the true self.
Marchosias
Marchosias (2) is a Goetic daemon or Elemental with whom I have worked for several
years. This Elemental was discovered and charged back around 1997 during some of my
Goetic rituals in my old flat with my sister Shanna. I was working through a number of
Elementals during those months and found the description of Marchosias to be most
colorful to my individual taste.
I traced the sigil and gave a sacrifice of blood and sexual fluid, the invocations were
repeatedly sounded until I felt the surge of lycanthropic energy enrapture my very being!
This demonic servitor, to whom I gave new life, was now within me. I understood every
particle of its essence. I felt the empathy between his nature and mine. I have always been
close to Lycanthropy, accepting and studying my own animalistic desires, here was a
spirit whose nature was precisely parallel.
There was a violent urge, such energy and power! This charge of adrenaline is most
useful at times of forth coming battle and self defense. It is then that we are most
dangerous - especially those who study martial arts and control of muscle movements on
small, sensitive, levels.
Black robed, I began to sweat heavily within the smoke filled chamber. The red candles
flickered at every movement I made, the atmosphere congealed, pulsating through with
each heavy breath which I drew lustfully into my body. My heart beat began to slow, my
sight was perfect - clear and defined - much more than normal. My normal eyesight is
20/20, but this was an enhanced sight of heightened senses, of passion and clear
predatory instincts.
Tracing the sigils in the air I found myself struggling to restrain myself from howling
fiercely within the closed chamber. I then undertook by control of will to slow my heart
rate and focus well upon the demon sigil of Marchosias. I was seeking a kind of
knowledge, of myself and this spirit. Each Goetic demon Elemental serves well in
granting knowledge and insight unto the sorcerer who would know him/her self.
After about what must have been fifteen minutes, I performed the banishing rite and
focused upon the small golden pentagram of Solomon around my neck. The demonic
state of mind left me and I felt revitalized and strong of mind and body. I packed away
my temple items neatly, then took to a long and relaxing hike in the nearby fields,
enjoying the evening air and contemplating my thoughts.
Later that eve, before I retired I took down many notes from my path working, opening
up many new avenues of exploration of my self in its lunar aspect. I have observed that
each time one discovers something significant of your shadow side, you will also learn
something relevant to your day side self. This can be most helpful in your search for self
preservation in such situations as work, social relations, etc.

The Vampyric Arts
125
126
This is a method which involves the use of your blood for the evocation of an already
existent vampire spirit. These beings can prove to be more malicious and dangerous than
mere servitors, as they already have a partial will of their own. I have discovered, through
numerous recording sessions involving EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomena), that many
spirits will send half thought messages or unintelligible rubbish. Though this could
perhaps partly be blamed on the method of recording, involving capturing disembodied
voices on magnetic tape, it is still something to consider. A friend of mine gave an
interesting opinion that, perhaps because they are fragmented partial identities, they will
give any message to attract the attention of the living. This makes quite a lot of sense
especially if you have worked with EVP as much as I have. When you do get messages,
they may seem rather cryptic or 'in code', or differ little from the language of a bogus
Seance . For all these reasons, I would advise being cautious with your discoveries. I still
give an attentive ear to such phenomena, as I still find a certain excitement in capturing
the dead on tape. I would suggest in such evocations that you make a recording just for
your record and in case any useful or inspiring things 'come through'.
Requirements:
A well developed protection ritual detailing power points of the body via the Chakras
(specific power points of the body), and created Elementals especially for shielding
effects.
This is not a technique for the ill of spirit, since Qlipothic demons prey on such
weakness. Sexual services by vampire spirits can prove exciting and invigorating (as long
as you are not their prey) but require much caution. Such beings, as I have mentioned
before, are notorious for invoking obsession and later madness. Sexual demons should be
treated as nothing more than mere slaves, otherwise they drive the unfortunate and
foolish sorcerer into horrifying nightmares, exhaustion, paranoia, obsession and even
suicide or a subconscious seed-program invoking death. Once the Elemental is used and
the purpose is served, banish as soon as possible. If evoking or creating a vampire
servitor spirit to destroy or carry out a curse, employ a sacrifice of your own blood, this
gives life force and binds the spirit to your will. Such spirits are of significant use in such
works, if charged with either fresh blood or a sealed container of old blood. The latter
gives a feeling of death and decay, due to the decomposition and coagulation of the
blood. Such would prove helpful in revenge or defense evocations.

power zone of Da’ath. Knowledge of the dark or hidden resources is present in the
annihilation of the self, which entails understanding the clear and defined purpose of
one’s individual genetic idenity. The correspondence between Da’ath and the Death
Posture lies with the nature of the Death Posture as a method. When one assumes the
Death Posture then the mind is freed temporarily from the flesh. During this state the self
becomes defined and opened at the same moment at which the ego itself, composed of
the current selve’s thoughts and ideals, is ‘vacuumed’ in a dark vortex known as Da’ath.
Just as one reverses consciousness, or returns ‘backwards’, to experience the cycle of
death and birth, so does the self enter into the more subconscious regions.
As mentioned before Da’ath is the offspring of Binah and Chokmah, Wisdom and
Understanding. Da’ath is Knowledge, in which the self is stripped, and the entire
subconscious is mapped out during an intense and ecstatic state of self introspection. This
is therefore the very fountain head of self power, by means of which a vast and arcane
library is made available. Be cautious however of the many Elementals, vampires and
other bestial haunters of the Abyss which will be within reaching distance. Know well
what you call!
The Witch Cult in relation to the Witches Sabbat Craft opens the Da’athian Vampiric
Current thus becoming aligned with the black or 'hidden' essence of sorcery. By such
means dreams are gained, explored and - through vaulting into reality in the Day Side -
become flesh. The Witches Sabbat Craft can be useful in exploring the astral aspects of
vampirism, in which the sorcerer shall taste from the cup of Choronzon. Lilith sprinkles
her powder of wolf and bat blood within the chalice which invariably leads to either
knowledge or madness. Lilith is a representative of the night and therefore a connection
or mirror of the Hebrew term LAYLAH (2) H A L Y A L, meaning night and death.
Through the eye of Kia one is able to dive through the black mirror, wherein the Qlipoth
grant the Grail of Choronzon, the blood filled cup of vampire, incubi, succubi, ghouls
and ghosts. One must take care assuming the Death Posture in the vampiric state due to
the psychic and obsessive dangers and threats which can arise. The sorcerer who would
dare sip from the cup of vampires must first master the self on most levels.
2) A sense of inner strength must be present in order to avoid the dangers of unbalanced
forces which exist in the astral Qlipoth.

My dreams that evening were of flying and of feasting, of shapes which burned in black
and crimson. I obtained further impetus towards vampiric evocation, 'to call them forth'
as it were. My instinct was to wait and meditate upon the oracle. Due to the necessity of
working in a positive and progressive way, avoiding the turn towards black (seeking the
GRAY path, of balance) it is always highly important that the sorcerer decides which is
the best to do. Such demonic Elementals must of their nature desire to become flesh, and
may possess living bodies, but I know I successfully absorbed the Elemental. I would
however recommend that only an adept in such arts attempt such an act, since it CAN
lead to madness if the will and mind are not strong.
Vampiric Servitors
- Incubus - Succubus -
Vampiric servitors can prove useful in the evocation and creation of Elementals, either
for the purpose of defense or as ‘fetish imps’. One particular method, which can prove
useful in times of psychic war between two sorcerers, involves the creation of several
servitors where each serves a different purpose. I have found such Elementals are
wonderful for a short evening of dreams and waking, however beyond that would prove
rather dangerous, even to the point of obsession. Such spirits should be controlled by the
sorcerer, not the other way around which often befalls unbalanced magickians. The
wizard realizes that servitors are only in existence to serve the will of the Warlock
himself, and that they should be banished and reabsorbed once their purpose is served.
Incubi/Succubi have long been connected with vampires. The reason for this is their
draining power during the dreams in which they stalk. These demons enter the dreaming
mind of the victim and slowly drain them of Chi or Astral Blood while sexually exciting
them. Such beings can prove useful if proper defenses are secured, or may be directed at
another. It is even possible for the sorcerer to take the flesh of the incubi-succubi
depending on their long term plans. For an extended attack, for which the sorcerer is
indisposed, it is recommended to create a servitor for the purpose of longevity.
Incubus
Male demons who would enter the dream of sleeping women or men, seduce them by
taking the flesh of their desire. The demon then drains them of astral blood while sexual
congress takes place in the dreaming state, leaving the victim not only drained of energy
but open to obsession and later personal destruction. Such spirits are known in folklore
130
131
around the world, primarily in Europe, to seduce their victims and drain them not only of
their astral energy but semen as well. The point of this was to create other demon
servitors and offspring.
Succubus
Female demons, born of the essence of Lilith, goddess of the night. These female
servitors work in the same fashion, taking on the flesh of the individuals deep set sexual
desires. The Succubi will seduce and drain their victims each night until exceeding
exhaustion causes some form of self- destruction, which almost invariably causes the
victim to be absorbed psychically by the Succubi. By re-absorbing the demon, the
sorcerer can therefore gain new astral strength by taking what the succubi has drained
itself. Whether the demon is an Incubus or Succubus is realatively unimportant, but the
gender of the magician involves some practical dangers. I have seen more destruction to
male magicians, this is due to the fact that males tend to be more gullible on the sexual
level, more apt for dangerous sexual encounters. Please understand however I am not
stating this is always the case, just more frequent in my personal experience. For this
reason I will always suggest that the male sorcerer trains with an emphasis on discipline
on the sexual level, to avoid unwelcome situations. The same applies to females if they
harbor similar weaknesses.
Attacks
A vampiric servitor can be a significant weapon (just as any properly charged Elemental
would be) if used correctly. Stealth should be instilled within such Elementals during the
creation rite. For instance, if one is to attack an enemy who is famous for his sexual
attraction to a particular sex, either male or female, then the appropriate servitor should
be created. If the enemy desires females then the sorcerer would create his/her own
personal formula for creating a succubi. Such can be done with a sigil being drawn
representing the attributes for the servitor, also a mental images and various elements
they can be drawn from, being water or fire, etc. The sigil would be a channel for creating
through sexual fluid or in defense or strong attacks your own blood. Once the servitor is
created you should offer no more fluid, lest you become a victim yourself. Several
servitors can be created for the same intended victim depending on the methods of attack.
Defense
Servitors can be utilized for positive purposes also, such as defensive measures. The
individual could have as many as they wish, although I only suggest one with the
maximum of two. The Warlock who would work with such forces should already have
developed a powerful psychic defense, built up by continuous will training and discipline
exercises. One may develop such strength by yoga and the various disciplines, building
up an effective wall of mental strength which would be psychically invigorated by
magical processes. The result would be a magickal wall which could deflect such
psychic/astral attacks. Such Walls could also be utilized to reflect a hostile offensive back
upon the attacker.
131

An evocation and creation of a vampire servitor for the use of sexual workings.
A sigil should be constructed to fit an image that is desireable and pleasing to you.
132
Once it is constructed, change the room to fit the atmosphere you are looking for, such as
candle lit, billows of incense smoke and images of succubi or incubi upon your walls.
Once the sigil is made, you will want to consecrate it. I recommend a mental envisioning
during masturbation until you fully develop the demon you are creating... grant it every
feature which you find attractive, including the not so attractive features, like the slight
imperfections which would still actively excite you. Remember, this servitor is for your
use so every desire should be formed within it. This is where the possibility of danger
will come in, due to the fact that this creature is a creation of your own individual desire,
which you are giving birth and form which through dreams shall become flesh. The Id is
given power by charging the sigil with your sexual fluid, if possible covering the sigil.
The succubi/incubi will then manifest in dreams and it shall be so very real to you.
Reality is yours to shape, however take care that you do not enter the essence of
Choronzon and become prey. To destroy and re - absorb the Elemental, one should focus
upon the destruction of the sigil, the object which the servitor was bound to, then at the
height of the focus, burn the sigil over a ritual fire and forget the image. You will have
then re-absorbed the demon and it shall return to nullity.
A ritual for the creation of protective vampiric servitor - For use in absorbing or
deflecting Astral - Psychic attacks A vampiric Elemental created for the purpose of
absorbing astral attacks or deflecting them can be most appropriate if one is planning a
swift and effective defense against some one who is planning a malicious battle. This
spell is also useful for those ladies who may be viewed as psychic prey for chauvinist
males who feel they can be intimidating by throwing some useless wanks their way.
Servitors should not be created to compensate for mental weakness, such beings would be
more of a complication in your life.
Please remember that the most deadly and effective attack is the swiftest and most silent.
Let your enemies be fooled by appearance. This is the key to mistakes made on the part
of the aggressor. Underestimate nothing, face it as the most significant enemy with the
most knowledge of the art of attack. This is how you should train yourself, be quick and
be alert. If you are slow you should learn the most powerful blow possible and how to
effectively apply it. If you are quick you should learn the fastest and most precise attacks
to make way for a short ending. Battles, either physical or on the astral plane should be
the shortest possible, before strength and stamina are lost. Mistakes and misplays are
made more possible over the course of extended time. Humans as a race are always
fallible, this is inherent not only in humans but also in every living organism. Know and
understand this and you shall be a nightmare to your enemies.
133
134
The beings generally grow in dreams once this is done. Often, a magician will create two
for the purpose of defense in times of battle. When charging the sigil, one should focus
upon things which activate a strong sense of mind, such as armor, fire arms, etc. Such
strengths are built in the mind and the servitor is only as strong as the sorcerer who
creates it. To banish the servitor, banish and re - absorb the spirit by the same means as
creating it.
Dreams are a vital source of psychic and mental resurgence, by which one can repair the
self and grow in the state of understanding, compassion, mental strength and the like. The
flip side of the absorption of such a spirit is that if not properly prepared, or merely
attempted with the spirit escaping one could risk possession, psychic damage or madness.
Such beings generally are mindless, especially if broken fragments of a former self; but
some may be of extra terrestrial (non human) origin, or a powerful sorcerer suriving
intact in the discarnate state, these have extensive abilities upon the astral plane. This is
also true of the adept sorcerer who is able to take on the dream flesh of the vampire, it
will prove nearly impossible for anyone to absorb such a sorcerer's spirit. Such results
require close to the same expenditure in time, and semi continuous work, as destroying a
spirit to take command of a body. Such is possible, but most dangerous and difficult,
especially if the original spirit has a host of familiars, servitors or 'Black Iron Walls' with
resulting psychic dangers for the operator.
I have made mention of the technique of binding a spirit to a sigil covered in blood and
sexual fluid. For the next step, involving more powerful servitors, would be one bound
to human blood from your body and sealed in a vial or jar with associated herbs and
potions. If one is creating a servitor through a sigil it would then be the next step to bind
them to a jar filled with your blood and a small amount of water. This would mean
submerging the sigil and actually sealing it in the jar or vial. Eldritch horrors of the
Lovecraftian type are often brought this material plane by evoking and storing such in
containers. If such is done and later buried in a plot of land it is not uncommon to begin
experiencing hauntings and disturbances in the area. It is rather tricky however to banish
and re-absorb such a spirit, one must first perform several powerful absorbing and
134
135
banishing rites, which are listed here. These can of course be changed according to the
style of the sorcerer but the basis is here.
The Evocation
Sprinkle drops of blood within the triangle and pace widdershins around it, focusing upon
the nature of the vampire spirit you are evoking. An Enochian key or call to Aethyr is
recommended.
The Binding
135
136
Place the vial or jar within the circle, it should have already been filled with whatever
amount of your blood you are using, so that the composition is already taking the form of
death. Fresh blood is often used for evocation or calling, however the binding can be of
old blood. Place the sigil within the vial or vessel until submerged in the elixir.
Banishing
Once the demon has served the purpose, it should then be set free or re-absorbed. If you
did not create it, do not attempt to absorb it, for the results could be disastrous at the best.
Such demons are generally eldritch creatures waiting for the chance of absorbing human
life force on the astral plane. Break now the bottle within the triangle.
Intone:
I recommend that the sorcerer takes a death figure form, such as Kali, the robed figure
Ankou, Saturn, Anubis, Cronos, etc.
To Absorb
"I have given you life and now I shall take it away.
136
137
Enter the circle of evocation and work yourself into a steady and controlling focus on
absorbing the spirit. Breathe deeply until exhaustion and slowly regain your composure.
Close the circle and banish fully.
Dream Haunting
Once the tables of magickal combat are turned towards you and there is no conceivable
chance of avoiding it, then you must turn your will towards the utter destruction of the
enemy. If there is no other way then one should not hold any feelings of guilt or remorse.
When there is a chance or way to avoid such means, one should not be reluctant to take it.
Have diligence and respect for your individual self and the power you may hold. Please
know as well that all things are possible and that just because you have begun a climb
towards magickal power and your potential, always know that compared to the universe
in which we exist we are nothing and in most cases to nothing we return. By holding life
in respect, and developing the ability to act with caution and maturity one will continue to
grow in psychic and physical power. It is only when the sorcerer overrates the self by the
inflation of ego that weakness will set in and leave the individual weak of spirit and
strength. Illusion is the ultimate enemy. The same can be said for ego. The methods
which Aleister Crowley explored are based on going beyond and above the ego, by the
taking of god forms and yoga techniques which further teach the limits of the mind and
body. A significant method of weighing down and troubling the mind, in order to weaken
the opponent, is to stalk them through dreams. This can be done by actually taking the
vampire flesh in your dreams or sending an Elemental/servitor to haunt them repeatedly.
The vampire spirit will often connect within their dreams and begin to activate disturbing
thoughts on the dream level until paranoia sets in. This could manifest in various ways,
the intended victim could actually feel chased or even see the spirit which may assume
the shape that fits the victims own psychic terror. Remember in dreams we can shift flesh
into any form desirable unto the self, so it is with the receptor of the haunting. This is the
danger of the knowledge of the Kia and it's manifestations. The spirit should be created
by Vampiric Servitor techniques, of blood and semen and should be focused upon before
sleep. The sorcerer should be sure of the intended victim and hold a clear vision in their
mind of how the servitor is to act. Once this is done then the magickian should retire to
sleep and by doing such will send the Elemental in the form of a night haunt towards it's
victim in the dream. Such methods require an advanced degree of development and
should only be attempted by those who have had significant experience and practice in
the matter of creating and/or evoking servitors.
137
138
WARNING:
Caution should be exercised with this rite. The creation of a moon child on the astral
plane is sometimes more dangerous than giving it flesh in the womb. The reason it is
dangerous is that it is yet another ‘step up’ from any normal Elemental, in simple terms it
is the closest to human intelligence that one could create, it stands on the threshold of
having it’s own will. The other point to understand is that such servitors, due to their lack
of will, act only unto your commands. If one falls prey to starting to communicate with
them when unnecessary then obsession can occur. The Elemental will gain immortality
through your soul itself, it will become attached and there is little hope beyond that.
The same is the case with any of the vampiric rites included in this Grimoire, if not
undertaken properly there is literally ‘hell to pay’.
The Sorcerer who takes on the act of sex to invigorate what Aleister Crowley called a
Moonchild is stepping beyond the boundaries of control and opening the gates of
something else. I have stressed extreme discipline in dealing with such spirits and would
say only the most advanced should undertake such a working as this. The contents of this
working is based upon an Astral Moonspirit, not a baby conceived in the flesh (which is
by all means possible). The Automata formed through your sex and the spirit formed in
your astral semen will give life to this sorcery. Rituals such as this have long been hidden
from the public and from most occultists. This is due to the fact that such workings
invoke bestial and demonic incarnations, like flesh taking atavisms which would drive
one to the brink of madness and death. The primal stygian daemons who stand waiting at
the threshold are going to run through the gate finally and I can only hope that the couple
who undertake this rite are willing to reap the consequences of such an undertaking. This
is Black Magick in every sense of the word, it creates or evokes an offspring of your
sorcery.
The spirit is first given essence through the desire and will of the couple. Energy is fed to
it by belief and the blood offering. This is obtained from the workers themselves several
days before and fed into a jar, so that the blood may coagulate. The blood given would
give the entity initial substance, while the intercourse and sexual energy within the circle
give it further energy; growing with the buildng intensity of the sexual act. At the
moment of ejaculation the spirit is given life through the semen itself, giving it astral
substance and form. Be sure to have your purpose for it clear and defined, be willing to
destroy and absorb it once the goal of your desire is obtained. Some horrifying prospects
include the initial astral formation with a sigil, and then later during a similar black rite
through natural congress impregnating the woman and drawing the moonspirit into the
Embryo, giving it a further strength of spirit which could in time and growth as a child
form a strong will.
138
139
Those who would actually desire to form a moon spirit into a baby through natural
congress would proceed with the same invocations, forming a spirit net which would
seize the evoked daemon. At the moment of ejaculation, with the man ejaculating within
the woman the spirit should be drawn within the body of the woman until the egg is
fertilized. If the woman is not pregnant some days after the Elemental will either
dissipate or be absorbed by the female during a later banishing ritual.
The sorcerer MUST reach into another reality during this rite, another dimension if it is to
be successful. At the moment of orgasm or undertaking the Death Posture a clear vision
of the spirit must be formulated, clearly seen and projected into the astral, thus giving it
clear life through Will, Desire and Belief. This rite is in honor of Hecate, Lilith, Kali and
Babalon, a primal reaching towards the Goddess.
Preparations:
A sigil, being a doll in this case, should be created and given the powers you wish the
Elemental to possess. Paint or etch symbols and attributes you wish this spirit to possess,
so that it can better complete its task.
A circle large enough to hold two people lying on their backs in natural congress, and a
triangle within the circle (to be under the couple) in which the evoked Elemental shall
reside during the rite. The sigil should be within the circle as well as blood from the
couple, stored well in a jar and enough for pouring twice. Do not harm one animal in this
working, it is of utmost importance to give the lunar intelligence birth and connection
through your own blood, to prevent the spirit from obtaining desires alien to your
purpose.
The circle should be inscribed with the names: LILITH - HECATE - KALI - BABALON
A dagger and sword should be present as well as the Chalice. Salt should be formed in a
circle around the invocation area, to ensure no escape for the spirit. Red and Purple
candles should be placed around the circle as well.
139
140
Witch:
“By blood, by life-spirit of our desire form now. From the great
Arena of Anon take thou flesh, for the purpose
of_____________.”
Couple shall now copulate intently while focusing upon the mental image, the sigil itself.
The Woman should initially be atop the male, symbolizing Lilith and the balance of
masculine and feminine energy. This also represents Lilith when she wished to ride
Adam and he refused, the Warlock is acknowledging feminine strength and balance. The
obvious subversive symbol being the Lunar Aspect of the self.
Once the orgasm is obtained for both. (Female first and male last) the male should
ejaculate upon the sigil itself. The alternate method is for the male to ejaculate within the
female (with of course the obvious possible consequences) and then she would put the
sigil to her vagina or squat over it and let it drip out, both fluids together, giving life to
the Elemental. Once the orgasm is complete the more psychic of the two should assume
the Death Posture while intently visualizing the moonspirit. There is a reaching beyond,
when the focus of the individual becomes absorbed and the belief becomes flesh. The
Elemental is then itself born of astral semen.The remaining amount of blood should be
poured upon the sigil covering the sexual fluid. Announce the purpose of the Elemental,
and place it within a small box. Banish any remaining energies that may have been
evoked and then rest.
Watch all your desires become flesh, but beware the consequences of your workings...
something is watching.
One of the most significant rites of evocation OR invocation within this Grimoire is the
rite of Choronzon, being the calling of the multiple vampiric energy currents of that
which we call Choronzon. Numerous occultists have sought to control this source of
energy, called the Guardian of the Abyss and madness incarnate, none have defined this
rather formless source of energy as positive.
All vampiric desires, being based in the subconscious are offspring of Choronzon, being
dual natured and energy consuming Elementals. This ritual is a diving into the Abyss,
there to be confronted by Choronzon itself. Such a demon can manifest in numerous
140
141
ways, depending upon your subconscious, will and own individual fears. The mind is
revealed to this Guardian, thus delivering the would be vampire into a test of will, in a
state of total vulnerability. If the will and intent is not pure madness will occur, the same
as with what is known as vampiric obsession. The adept becomes drunk on the blood of
the Mother of Abominations (the Black aspect of Babalon, as well as Kali). They reach
the destruction point of their own essence and thus become trapped within the Abyss.
Such deformed desires are in fact what has been the building of the Qlipoth, for it
harbors unbalanced energies and Elementals. The body in this case would continue but
the very essence of the individual would be gone, rendering him or her into an
unmotivated state of ' just existing'.
This rite involves three or more sorcerers, two of whom should be robed in Crimson who
act as the assistants, while the third is the Wizard who acts as the channeling base for
these Qlipothic forces. The Wizard should be robed in Black and White, acting as the
receptor for this current of energy. The rite involves an advanced form of assuming the
vampire Elemental, since the spirit is an un-created spirit, with no bonds to earth based
forces.
It will be to your benefit in developing your own workable system of sorcery, for there is
much to be gained in actual experience in the workings of evocations and vampire spirits.
The Holy Guardian Angel or True Will should already be within understanding, acting as
a banishing force if such energies become too powerful for the Wizard to contain. If the
sorcerers are unable to contain such an evoked demonic mass of energy, then each of
their lives can become filled with turmoil and the area of working itself may become
haunted. Sickness, weakness and even death can occur. Such Elementals would be free to
multiply in their existent natures since Choronzon is of no being, but multiplies freely,
and quite capable of mutating into any thing. A large circle should be made of flour and
/or salt in which the three shall stand. Two smaller circles should be drawn also in flour
and/or salt as well, one in which the Wizard shall stand and make the evocations and the
grand invocation, by which he shall take the energy of the Qlipoth, born of Choronzon.
Within the other circle should be a triangle with the names of Mi-ch-ael which is derived
from Ceremonial Magick Traditions such as the Goetia of Solomon the King. This is the
angel of protection by which the energies shall be bound.
Outside of the triangle, still within the circle the magickian will inscribe the names of
Lilith, Choronzon and Kali. This triangle is to be within the circle however. The point of
this is to ensure that the spirit force will not break forth. If it does by some chance or
mistake of the Wizard then the other two sorcerers should seek to contain and banish it
from within their circle. Each sorcerer should memorize or have near them the banishing
ritesm which shall be used in case all goes awry. An amount of the sorcerer's blood shall
be used, stored in a vial for this specific rite. A sigil should also be constructed,
representing the specific force which the Wizard shall attempt to invoke from the
Qlipoth. Subsequent to the rite itself this sigil may also be used to obtain knowledge via
dream.
141
142
Perform a banishing rite and cast the circle widdershins as well. Now focus upon the
circle and the triangle in which the spirits shall be evoked. The blood within the vial
should now be poured within the triangle.
The Evocation
You may wish to repeat this evocation several times to assure the mind has aligned with
the callings, in order to activate the manifestation. Enochian keys, callings and the use of
the other states of self induced trance shall prove helpful in the contact of such spirits.
The Binding
"Daemon and Spirits of the spaces of Non-Being, Vampires of the ghost spaces long
forgotten I have evoked thee here by my word and will, and I charge that you must
remain within this circle. To not move from it for any reason, save to be damned to
nothingness and the loss of all vital energy."
The Invocation
"Oh mighty Rehctaw, that which exists between the shades of
time
I do invoke thee within my opening self: arise within every
aspect of my being for we are as one. I shall traverse the spheres
of the Qlipoth and take on the flesh of the vampire and ghost So
it shall be!"
The Wizard shall now enter a gnosis state in which Rehctaw, the great watcher, has taken
the reverse form. To assume this energy, intone as you destroy the sigil:
142
143
there is knowledge in death through the eye of the Kia - the all
seeing"
Enter now carefully the circle in which your blood has spilled. The blood that you gave is
of your being, therefore it is possible for the sorcerer to absorb the energies contained
therein. Breath deeply as you feel the Qlipothic forces enter, allow the death gnosis to
overtake your mind, and feel the ecstasy of Thanatos. It should be also noted that the two
assisting sorcerers should recite the proper banishing verses while you are within, to keep
all escaping energies at bay. They should also know that you will be at the threshold of
the Abyss and if not properly in tune with the Will, Rehctaw (4) and the Holy Guardian
Angel then madness could overtake you at this very moment. They should be prepared to
banish all within the circle and to keep you, yourself at bay until properly banished and
the mind returned. If these precautions fail there is the possibility of trapping the self in
the Qlipoth or succumbing to actual vampirism by the evoked spirits. If such happens, all
mental stability will be lost and the sorcerer reduced to a very slow and practically
worthless state of mind. Chances of recovery would be very slight indeed.
The Banishing
The Wizard who absorbed the energies of the Qlipoth should now be the one performing
the banishing within the actual triangle. The two additional sorcerers should move in full
effect and focus of will towards the banishing as well. The Wizard should take several
handfuls of salt and toss them within the circle in which he stands, which action the two
assisting sorcerers should imitate as well.
"I now close the gates of your entrance, the sacrifice of life force
was made and your essence is now to depart.Go now with
swiftness and without causing harm to any living thing. I have
overcome thee by force of will, to understand that which exists
beyond the barrier. Go forth now and return to you plane, I cast
thee out unto the Qlipoth. Go and return. Depart! So it is done"
Once this is complete, to ensure which you may wish to recite several times until the
feeling of tension has left, perform the traditional banishing rites to which you and yours
are accustomed. Close the circle and banish again. Dreams should come fluent and with
ease, many of them shall be disturbing. I recall one specific one in which I was in an
underwater upright tunnel and vampire spirits were tearing gray corpses with white eyes,
the essence leaking from their bodies was that of vampiric blood which the incubi and
succubi had stored. This was a separate incident from that when I had dreamt of a single
demon tearing corpses. The tunnel concepts were the same however.
Keep a detailed journal of your visions and whatever you may come across in your
creative or normal life occurrences. You will also notice your strength and ability on the
astral plane shall be increased. With this increased ability you can contact or assume the
spirit of Black Eagle, for which there always is a price. Those who have contacted this
Elemental shall know of which I speak. The unspoken is here. Know thyself!

In my personal workings with the Coven Maleficia - which consisted of my wife, Soror
Davcina (Elda Isela Ford) and at one time two other individuals - our undertakings were
based on the path workings which led me to Qlipothic Elementals. These entities could
and did provide knowledge and inspiration concerning the sorceries of which they were
born. Many of these Elementals within the Qlipoth already existed in a previous form
within the Abyss. The path workings only gave them a knowable identity, by which we
may associate with them. The Guardian of the Qlipoth and the Abyss is Choronzon, so it
is highly recommended that the sorcerer be strong and sound of mind and body before
attempting to enter and pass through the Gates of the Witch Moon. The sigil of each spirit
associated with each element are given below:
NOTES
Categorized by Chapter
CHAPTER ONE
1. Lucem Fero, The Light Bringer known as Lucifer. Christian symbolism has battened a
more sinister view upon this figure. A skillful presentation of Lucifer is given in Aleister
Crowley’s poem, “Hymn to Lucifer” and Kenneth Anger’s “Lucifer Rising”, a film based
upon the ‘Torch Bearer’.
2. Hel is the Norse - Pagan Goddess of the Underworld.
3. See “The Book of Pleasure” by Austin Osman Spare.
“4. Dracula was a Woman” by Raymond MacNalley.
“5. Lord of the Forest” is a symbol of the Devil, the Horned God of Beasts. Lord of life,
fertility and strength, who is often connected to Capricornus, or Pan.
6. The Wolf Skin holds reference to Shaman cultures of Germany and Scandinavia. Man
seeking the spirit of a certain beast would dress in the skins of that which they would
invoke. Such invocations would be conducted in which the sorcerer would anoint his
body, decorate it in paints with numerous sigils and then don the skin. To this would be
added ferocious and high strung dancing, to induce the gnosis wished.
7. An occult research group whose magickal affiliations remain independent. The Coven
Maleficia was formed in Houston, Texas in late 1996 by Michael Ford. In 1997 Michael
was based in Indianapolis again during which workings were undertaken which involved
ceremonial magick practice, the ritual of the Bornless One to contact ones Holy Guardian
Angel, Astral Travel and Dream projection, Vampiric and Lycanthropic Sorcery,
Qlipothic Workings and later Ghost Research. The Coven Maleficia is currently in
operation in Houston, Texas USA.

also by the same author “Liber AL vel Legis” also known as “The Book of the Law”.
3. Chaos Magic is a development of Austin Osman Spare’s sorcery as defined in the
“Book of Pleasure”. See also Peter Carroll and his books, among others, “Liber
Null/Psychonaut” and “Liber Kaos” for detailed and effective introductions to Chaos
Magic.

7. Austin Osman Spare referred to this concept in “The Book of Pleasure”. Please when
seeking a copy do not settle for the text format only, many of which appear on the
internet. The art MUST be viewed in order to understand the concepts.

CHAPTER THREE
1. The Devil or Baphomet.
2. Atavistic Resurgence is the recalling of a past ancestral quality, or an obtained one
with the Karma of another animal. Such atavisms appear demonic or bestial. See “Images
and Oracles of Austin Osman Spare” by Kenneth Grant.
3. The Petro tradition of Voodoo is based in the element Fire, thus aligned with sex and
death workings. In parallel mythology the Gods Thanatos and Eros in union, opposites
non-existent in the combination.
4. Black Isis is the Egyptian equivalent of the Goddess Kali, being a figure of both Death
and Birth. Black Isis is also a formula which combines the Goddesses Kali, Hecate, Lilith
and Babalon into one specific Goddess Form.
5. The Waking flesh of day side activities.
6. “ The Book of Pleasure”
7. Widdershins is the counter-clock wise movement within or in the motion of a circle.
This represents the under flowing of energy, in which the base of all power resides. The
backwards movements in the rituals of Witchcraft and Magick are based on the Darkside
workings from ages past.
8. “The Witches’ Sabbat/Axiomata” published by FULGUR of London. 1992
9. The Morning Star is also known as Venus, the Roman name which equals Lucifer. All
rites undertaken in Venus are of Light, therefore of Lucifer.

Crowley.
2. “The Book of Lies”, a manual of the Abyss by Aleister Crowley. The Book of Lies is
based upon the number of 333, being Choronzon, the gate of the Abyss. The book also
gives significant and useful information on L.A.Y.L.A.H. which is Hebrew for Night and
Death.
3. A term which is said to open the gates of Hell or the Abyss. I confirm this rumor.
