Fallen Angels: Watchers and the Witches Sabbat Read online

Page 18

The Invocation of Maliku’l-Quwat is a ritual which requires intense passion in reciting and calling Iblis. If you don’t invest total belief and a high level of energy, expect little results (as with all magical practices). Visualize the Djinn as if at that moment there is spiritual union between the Lord of Power and your entirety of self, including the Daemon. The ideal time for this ceremony is at 12 Noon as it is centered on the Adversarial Current as a solar mystery associated with creation, illumination and strength of mind and body. Part One invokes Iblis and the second part summons Qarinah (Lilith) who is by many traditions the Mother of Djinn, Demons and bride of Iblis. This is the ritualistic act of Infernal Union and the Alchemy of the Black and Red Serpents. This is commonly represented as the Caduceus as a symbol of healing, wisdom and fertility of mind and body.

  The naming of the scorching desert winds, simmum, is indicated to be that which Allah created the Djinn from, while Iblis was composed of smokeless fire. As-Saqar and Athara are two environments in the lowest levels of hell from an Islamic tradition preserved by the Eleventh-century historian Abdul Malik al-Tha’alibi in “Qisas al-Anbiya” (Stories of the Prophets). The spelling of ‘Azazil’ within this ceremony was based on the traditional spellings in Islamic texts and is presented in this section for authenticity.

  INVOCATION OF MALIKU’L-QUWAT THE DJINN OF FIRE Black Alchemical Summoning of Iblis and Qarinah

  Part I: Summoning of Iblis

  [Face the North, symbolic of 12 Noon] By the brilliance and knowledge passed down to mankind, I turn against the orderly motion of this world and by the Adversarial Rites I command my Will be done.

  I summon Maliku’l-Quwat, named Shaitan to the fearful clay and tyrannical powers of death in this world, Iblis, Lord of Power hear me! Whose Black Light shines brightly in the Darkness, behold Ta’us Malak, the Peacock Angel!

  I invoke you Iblis, whose angelic majesty named you the first Djinn who is of smokeless fire. Iblis, whose secrets in heaven were revealed by the ruling powers, in your eloquence was the bringer of knowledge to those called angels.

  I summon you Iblis and those Djinn, born from the simmum, brothers and sisters who have dominion over the earth, hear me!

  Iblis, whose fellow Djinn who upon the earth forged a hidden kingdom on an island, descended and took the mantles of power, becoming Malak and assuming the second Name, Azazil! Iblis rise within me!

  Azazil who understood that humanity was born of clay while you, Prince of this World, was of Holy Fire, was alone and first strong in mind to deny submission at Allah’s command: Iblis bows not before clay, Azazil brings knowledge and power to those seeking to ascend upon his forbidden path! Prideful father, Bringer of Inspiration and Knowledge in

  this world by both the path of Spirit and Flesh, Iblis look favorably upon my invocations! Before me, the Black Flame! The Lordly Gift of Divine Consciousness and the Infernal Key to Wisdom and Power, this Flame burns fiercely within me!

  I prostrate before no god nor man for like Iblis and Djinn, I am created in their image and beholding the Gift of Forbidden Knowledge. Let your Will be as Mine and one victory is for our Coven of Spirit!

  Iblis, who is the Prince of this World, flying upon the winds of this vast earth, taking many forms and masks, bestow your blessings and joy upon me!

  From your Throne and palace in As-Saqar, the lowest level of the gathering-place of spirits and sorcerers, let the pleasures and wisdom of Hell be granted to me.

  Iblis, ruler who holds power over the Seven Levels of Hell, resides in the As-Saqar, the place of burning, the furnace of your Infernal Fiery essence of majesty!

  Iblis, who dwells also in Athara, the place of damp and great cold, the very home and resting place of your hellish court: Grant me the spiritual and dreaming gateway to your wisdom and teachings!

  Once you were chained with your angels in this place of darkness, yet now you are free to go between this world and that, I invoke your power and spiritual guidance as a earthly

  Son (or Daughter), so blessed by the scorpion’s mark and serpent’s coils so taking form in my Spirit immolated with Black Flame!

  Maliku’l-Quwat! Lord of Power! I invoke you, accept this offering of incense and respectful prayer to your majesty and my Apotheosis!

  Join within my Circle of Invocation, my Temple of MindBody-Spirit, the opposing and scaled path upon the jagged spine of the Dragon! Here the act of creation and disorderly motion brings in union Qarinah and Iblis begetting my awakening!

  Part II: Summoning of Qarinah

  [Face the South, symbolic of 12 Midnight] I summon forth the beautiful and illustrious Goddess who bestows passion, power, wisdom and death: Lilith I invoke you by your Sacred Name of Power!

  Qarinah, el-Shahhaqah, el-Khunfusah, el-Jiddah, Umm elSibyan, Lilith who is the Bride of Iblis-Azazil!

  Qarinah, feared by the servile sheep of clay who is tabi’ah and shaqiqah, rise in union with Iblis within my Circle that the Black Flame is made brighter within me! Grant me the wisdom and power of your Five Sons, born of Infernal Union long ago!

  O hear the names:

  Tir (Bird), bringer of disaster, injury and loss: send forth your powers against those who seek my injury! Al-A’war (The One-Eyed), who brings pleasures of the flesh and lustful desire!

  Sut, the serpent-like changing one, immortal called Liar which deceives our enemies and by Sophistry shapes this world, Hail!

  Dasim, who brings disunion and hostility, send this forth against those aligned against me!

  Zalambur, who poisons the dishonest and frauds of this world with devastation and failure, lend me your wisdom and guidance to succeed with integrity and honor! Hear me Qarinah, bride of Iblis and Mother of Djinn and Demons, bring in this Infernal Union and bestow unto me your passion and predatory instincts of both this world and that of Spirit!

  Hear me Iblis, Adversary and Light Bringer, Father of Djinn and Demons! Join in this Infernal Union and grant me the gift of knowledge and the path to Mastery in both this world

  and that of my Daemon called by the Egyptians, Qarinah! Within this Circle, I am Reborn as the Beast of Union between the Black and Red Serpents, that divine birth which is the offspring of the Heavens and Earth! Let my total will be done!

  Chapter 8: Rites of Oneiroi Luciferian Sabbatic Initiation

  Gates of the Dream

  The ancient Greek Oneiroi or Oneiros are bat-like dark winged spirits, literally daimons, being manifestations of dreams, which emerge from the caverns of Erebos. The land of eternal darkness, Erebos, is the dreaming realm of those Oneiroi who send pleasant dreams or the challenging, omenbringing nightmares known as ‘melas oneiros’ (Black Dreams). The gate of self-initiation is found herein, the spirit is loosened from the physical body and into the Devil’s Sabbat the primal ecstasies are experienced.

  The Witches Sabbat is the oneiric convocation of primal and dark desires; the meeting of the road of waking and dreaming with the darksome path of shadows and fantasy. Participating in the Astral Sabbat is a secret pathway in which none outside your fellow sorcerers are to be told. The Sabbat is between dreaming and waking, consciousness enraptured in vivid imagination and the fantastical cloak of night.

  THE STEPS OF THE SABBAT

  1. At 12 Midnight, either solitary or with Coven, enter ritual chamber or selected meeting place. If using ointment or chemical intoxicant, consume. Black candle upon altar near image of the Sabbatic Goat is lit.

  2. Homage to the Devil, Invocation of the Sabbatic of the Emperor of Night and Invocation of the Two Horned One. The Witch and Warlock will kiss the Baphomet statue on the forehead as a sign of self-affirmation of ones’ Daemon, then to light their Green candle from the Black Candle of the Goat. This is the Osculum Infame.

  3. Feast of the Sabbat, symbolic of earthly joy and pleasure. May be food or simply drinking from the Chalice. This is a libation offering to the powers inherent within the Witch or Warlock.

  4. Widdershins around the circle
, entering trance via drums or recorded music.

  5. If solitary, full trance and oneiric Transvection to the Sabbat by spirit-flight. The incantations of the Watchers and Sabbatic Goat of Mendes, named here as Baphomet is the very center of the Crossroads. Baphomet is not one to be bowed to: Luciferian teachings consider submission to another within our Black Art as the greatest blasphemy! More than any Deific Mask, Baphomet is closest to your Daemon and represents the center of the Circle of the Luciferian.

  The origins of our modern cultus has medieval origins with the profaned tales and fears of the uninitiated masses of the church. Look to the forbidden knowledge which is hidden within the appearance of horror and perversity. The Devil is but a Deific Mask which arises from deep within our primal instincts, guided by the Torch of Black Flame as our Mark of Initiation. Between fantasy and myth of the ancient times exists the transmission of those Daemonic Warlocks and Witches who crystalized in union the Daemon and Conscious personality beyond the Veil of the Dead.

  The Sabbat is first chanted in fleshly rites in the hours of night, yet the Witch or Warlock must leave the physical body and enter the Otherworld between the living and dead. The Sabbat is joined in between the normal states of waking, dreaming and sleeping. The oneiric ecstasy of spirit-flight brings us on demonic steeds and theriomorphic shapes to the Cainite Circle of those bearing the Black Flame and of Witch Blood.

  The medieval lore of the witch cult is like the Sabbat itself, between the realms of the living, the dead and the astral plane. Within the Crossroads, the very center of the Circle is the Convocations of the Luciferian Art. The very gate of initiatory power is opened by the shadowy path to the Sabbat where satyr, devil, goddess and spirit are joined in the living physical Temple of Mind, Body and Spirit. The Warlock and Witch who bear the Luciferian Light are alone upon the Cainite Path yet are united with the spiritual teachings by the Watchers.

  The Sabbatic Rites are performed in the flesh; uniting fantasy, imagination and knowledge of the symbols they represent. Self-initiation by the ancient Art of the Nephilim thrusts the Witch or Warlock to forbidden power and knowledge. The lore of Enoch describes the Nephilim, being of both the Heavens and the Earth possessed power to go forth from their bodies as ‘Evil’ Spirits. The term ‘Evil’ is used to describe the conquering, rebellious spirits of the Nephilim in Enoch. For the Luciferian, the word evil describing a spirit simply means that we reject the slave-mentality and religions of restriction.

  The Luciferian Sabbat is completed in this cycle of the ceremonies of both flesh and spirit, by oneiric Convocations drinks in spirit from the fountain of initiatory power.

  The Invocation of Baphomet of Mendes requires the complete investment of belief in every word uttered: visualize within your mind each name and description according to your instinct, lock the rational and physical world out and once you enter your circle or space of your Daemon (symbolized as the Circle or a visualized circumference around your body) allow indulgence in your personal mythology. Throw yourself via imagination and believe that your thoughts, words and ritualistic actions are acts of creation and destruction: the fervor and unity of Will, Desire and Belief.

  Energize and electrify your ceremony, the ritual area itself should be engulfed and charged with your ecstatic invocations and energy. Recite this invocation once or as many times required to inspire gnosis before proceeding with the oneiric rite of the Sabbat.

  SABBAT OF THE EMPEROR OF NIGHT Invocation of Baphomet of Mendes

  0. Opening the Mysteries of the Sabbatic Goat

  I light the Black Flame and stand before the Two-Horned God, the Devil’s Mask worn as a reflection by the Daemon: No god nor spirit determines my destiny or path!

  The Daemon in the Deific Mask of Baphomet is the mystery of Apotheosis, the Key to Ecstasy and the Power of the Left

  Hand Path! Behold! I am before the altar and affirm that Baphomet is the Devil’s Flesh known as Cain, First of Witch Blood, born of Samael and Lilith, taught by Azazel and who is the symbolic first predator of his lesser brother of clay. I drink in honor to the myth and lore of Cain as Baphomet, the TwoHorned Beast who in isolation, forged his own path and teachings handed down by the Watchers. I invoke Baphomet!

  By Azazel-Lucifer-Baphomet, manifest of the Elder Gods; Thou ancient and terrible god of night, encircled in darkness yet bringing light,

  By Banebdjedet, Ba of the Lord of Djedet, Ram-headed god of Mendes;

  Ancient Ba of Osiris, whose fertility in the threshold awakens gods and goddesses,

  Ram of Mendes, whose forms are many and of amethystluminosity, Goat-headed god;

  By the forceful occasion, when carnal pleasure and the sorcerer shall leave all flesh,

  In the veil of balance between darkness and light; Hail thou, Banebdjedet, whose image is the Four Bas of ReAtum, God of Mendes I call!

  I. The Charge: Manifestation of the Goat of Mendes

  By Baphomet, the star of the blazing pentagram upon thy forehead Let thy knowledge be revealed:

  Ascendant as mastery of the torch of inner light, Descending as carnal power over the primal instinct and

  fleshly desire!

  Whose arms bear the names of both Azazel and Shemyaza, One hand upward to the White Moon, of self-love and

  manifest joy;

  One hand downward to the Black Moon, the willed strength of justice in this world,

  Let my desires reflect my manifest word! Behold, the Horns of Wisdom, Power and Mastery as the divine incarnate, hail!

  Between the Horns of Wisdom, the Torch of Luciferian Light: intelligence and wisdom! The Torch of Intelligence and Self-Deification is the Magical Light of Equilibrium;

  Let my Spirit be of control over matter, To indulge with discipline and control;

  Behold, the Inverted Pentagram!

  The symbol of wisdom and infernal power, thou herald of Baphomet! The caduceus, invigorated with the serpents bringing knowledge, fertility and darkness;

  Caduceus, eternal symbol of life and immortal spirit, Scale-covered revealing the wisdom of the waters, thou circle above the air;

  Feathered wings manifesting the authority and power of the sky and solar might,

  Goat-hoofed, mighty Daimon who is Baphomet, exalting balance in this world I invoke!

  Ancient sphinx of medieval terrors, open to me the infernal sanctuary and throne of the heavens;

  As Lucifer was cast from his throne so he shall rise in your mighty image!

  II. Attainment of the Blazing Pentagram

  As the Lightning Bolt from the Empyrean heights so fallen to earth as the Adversary: Kokabiel, Asael, Ziq’el, Baraq’el! Hail Watchers bearing Flames of Knowledge and Luminance!

  In the Union of Empyrean and Infernal do I become Daemon in Black Alchemical Earth. My shadow is substance for the blazing torch and the Black Flame as the Blazing Pentagram;

  I invoke thee, Baphomet! As I am before thy image so shall your chalice be offered to me! By the Mask which reveals Cain,

  O Two-Horned Dragon who rides the fiery winds and darksome nights of old hear me!

  Let me drink of the infernal and empyrean ecstasies and achieve the infernal union!

  Let the false Judeo-Christian morality be cast down and trampled under cloven hoof!

  The Blazing Pentagram illuminated within, may I continually ascend and descend with power! Hail Baphomet! Hail Azazel!

  III. The Two Horns of Knowledge and Power

  I am the very Temple and Throne of Mind, Body, Spirit: Daemon immolated in Divine Blackened Fire bearing the wisdom and power of the Empyrean and Infernal!

  As Above, So Below!

  Open the Mysteries of the Devil’s Sabbat! Fill me with the blazing light of Lucifer, Morning and

  Evening Star!

  So it shall be done! [Focus on burning incense, black and white candles on each side of Baphomet as you visualize the illuminating light of consciousness open within you. Contemplate this light and the knowledge that you alone are responsib
le for your entirety of life; the wisdom of Baphomet begins with this realization.]

  THE INVOCATION OF THE TWO HORNED ONE The Arch-Daemon born of Infernal Union

  I invoke you Deofol, I summon you Diuval, AZAZEL! Ancient Horned God who stands against all barriers! Hail to Dhul-Qarnayn, who bestowed with violence and

  nobility the joys of culture and progression! Upon the Crooked Spine of Leviathan walk the Path of Darkness, to discover the Torch of Iblis illuminate from within.

  Scorching Noon-tide Sun.

  The Stav are my Horns of Authority and Wisdom, my Right-hand holds still. Cernunnos given strength!

  The Caduceus is my Wand guiding the Healing Serpents upward from Earth. By Ningishzida and Hermes Chthonis be in power!
