Hey :) Is There Any Association Between Lucifer And Frogs? Or Do You Have An Upg? Frogs Are A Sign From

I’ve been thinking a lot of the notion of the christian scapegoat. I was always taught that Jesus was the scapegoat, shouldering the sins of humanity and suffering for it. But I truly think that Lucifer fulfills the role of scapegoat. Shouldered with all the sins of christianity, regarded as sin-incarnate, driven from heaven, shooed from any warmth and love, into the deserts.  Scapegoats aren’t brought back in with a pat on the back for a predetermined reunion, they’re left and expected to die. 

Is it any wonder Lucifer’s often represented with a goat?

Venus & Satan

Connection with Satan/Lucifer

In the Book of Isaiah, chapter 14, the king of Babylon is condemned in a prophetic vision by the prophet Isaiah and is called הֵילֵל בֶּן-שָׁחַר (Helel ben Shachar, Hebrew for "shining one, son of the morning"), who is addressed as הילל בן שחר (Hêlêl ben Šāḥar), The title "Hêlêl ben Šāḥar" refers to the planet Venus as the morning star, and that is how the Hebrew word is usually interpreted.

This passage was the origin of the later belief that Satan was a fallen angel, who could also be referred to as "Lucifer".

However, the translation of הֵילֵל as "Lucifer" has been abandoned in modern English translations of Isaiah 14:12.

An association of Isaiah 14:12–18 with a personification of evil, called the devil, developed outside of mainstream Rabbinic Judaism in pseudepigrapha and Christian writings, particularly with the apocalypses.

The metaphor of the morning star that Isaiah 14:12 applied to a king of Babylon gave rise to the general use of the Latin word for "morning star", capitalized, as the original name of the devil before his fall from grace, linking Isaiah 14:12 with Luke 10 ("I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven") and interpreting the passage in Isaiah as an allegory of Satan's fall from heaven.

Astronomy

Venus is the third-brightest object in the sky and the most prominent planet.

The third smallest planet in the Solar System, Venus is a terrestrial planet and is sometimes called Earth's "sister planet" because of their similar size, mass, proximity to the Sun, and bulk composition.

Venus is shrouded by an opaque layer of highly reflective clouds of sulfuric acid, preventing its surface from being seen from Earth in light.

Venus has an extremely dense atmosphere composed of 96.5% carbon dioxide, 3.5% nitrogen—both exist as supercritical fluids at the planet's surface—and traces of other gases including sulfur dioxide.

The ground shows evidence of extensive volcanism, and the sulfur in the atmosphere may indicate that there have been recent eruptions.

The absence of evidence of lava flow accompanying any of the visible calderas remains an enigma.

The planet is bright enough to be seen in broad daylight, but is more easily visible when the Sun is low on the horizon or setting. As an inferior planet, it always lies within about 47° of the Sun.

Venus "overtakes" Earth every 584 days as it orbits the Sun. As it does so, it changes from the "Evening Star", visible after sunset, to the "Morning Star", visible before sunrise.

As it orbits the Sun, Venus displays phases like those of the Moon in a telescopic view.

The pentagram of Venus is the path that Venus makes as observed from Earth.

The pentagram of Venus. Earth is positioned at the centre of the diagram, and the curve represents the direction and distance of Venus as a function of time.

The pentagram of Venus is sometimes also referred to as the petals of Venus due to the path's visual similarity to a flower.

What color is Venus

To the naked eye, Venus appears as a white point of light brighter than any other planet or star (apart from the Sun).

If looking with human eyes, Venus is white and yellow with a reddish and brown surface. Scientists generally agree to describe Venus as white and yellow.

Alchemy

To the world of antiquity, Venus/Copper stood as a personification of the divine feminine.

Venus/Copper was the planet/element that represented aspects of feminine beauty, love, lust, artistic creativity, affection, fertility, and balanced thinking.

In magic, Venus/Copper is used to promote love, sensuality, friendship, positive relationships, fruitful negations, and peace.

To the alchemist, Venus/Copper represents the love and compassion needed to become a well-rounded individual. It is the balanced psychological energy of Venus/Copper that allows the alchemist to evaluate experiences through one’s inner eye and bring those powerful insights into conscience awareness.

Culture

Dante Alighieri associated Venus with the liberal art of rhetoric.

The Venus symbol, ♀, consists of a circle with a small cross below it. It has been interpreted as a depiction of the hand-mirror of the goddess, which may also explain Venus's association with the planetary metal copper, as mirrors in antiquity were made of polished copper (alloy), though this is not certain.

In botany and biology, the symbol for Venus is used to represent the female sex, alongside the symbol for Mars representing the male sex, following a convention introduced by Linnaeus in the 1750s.

Arising from the biological convention, the symbol also came to be used in sociological contexts to represent women or femininity.

The discovery in the modern era that Venus was a distant world covered in impenetrable cloud cover gave science fiction writers free rein to speculate on conditions at its surface; all the more so when early observations showed that not only was it similar in size to Earth, it possessed a substantial atmosphere. Closer to the Sun than Earth, the planet was frequently depicted as warmer, but still habitable by humans. The genre reached its peak between the 1930s and 1950s, at a time when science had revealed some aspects of Venus, but not yet the harsh reality of its surface conditions.

Another proselytizer I strongly suggest to block. Don't enter discussion if they message you, those people thrive on others engaging with their apolegetics. Don't send them shitty anons either, this will only likely make them feel like they're one of the Persecuted Christians.

After a very brief glimpse through their blog I've also seen a long ass reblog under a post written by a Satanic person btw. So, I really advise blocking them.

cw a long proselytizing message, some subtle queerphobia:

Sulfur and Satan

Sulfur as an element

Sulfur (or sulphur in British English) is a chemical element with the symbol S and atomic number 16.

Sulfur is the tenth most abundant element by mass in the universe and the fifth most on Earth.

Historically and in literature sulfur is also called brimstone, which means "burning stone".

Sulfur is an essential element for all life, but almost always in the form of organosulfur compounds or metal sulfides.

Sulfur is one of the core chemical elements needed for biochemical functioning and is an elemental macronutrient for all living organisms.

As a solid, sulfur is a characteristic lemon yellow; when burned, sulfur melts into a blood-red liquid and emits a blue flame.

Sulfur, usually as sulfide, is present in many types of meteorites.

The distinctive colors of Jupiter's volcanic moon Io are attributed to various forms of molten, solid, and gaseous sulfur.

Elemental sulfur can be found near hot springs and volcanic regions in many parts of the world, especially along the Pacific Ring of Fire; such volcanic deposits are currently mined in Indonesia, Chile, and Japan.

The radical anion S3− gives the blue color of the mineral lapis lazuli.

History

English translations of the Christian Bible commonly referred to burning sulfur as "brimstone", giving rise to the term "fire-and-brimstone" sermons, in which listeners are reminded of the fate of eternal damnation that await the unbelieving and unrepentant. It is from this part of the Bible that Hell is implied to "smell of sulfur" (likely due to its association with volcanic activity).

Early European alchemists gave sulfur a unique alchemical symbol, a triangle at the top of a cross (🜍).

Left: alchemical sign for sulfur/the combustible elements/Pallas

Center: 2/3rds of the Trinity sign, inverted/inverted phosphorus sign

Right: the alchemical sign for brimstone, an older/archaic name for sulfur.

In alchemy

Sulfur or soul, the principle of combustibility

Sulfur represents the soul in Alchemical philosophy. It is a volatile principle that relates to the individual essence of a being and expresses itself through unique compounds that are typically found in the oil of any given substance.

In association with Satan/Lucifer

Fire and brimstone frequently appear as agents of divine wrath throughout the Christian Book of Revelation culminating in chapters 19–21, wherein Satan and the ungodly are cast into a lake of fire burning with brimstone (Greek: λίμνην τοῦ πυρὸς τῆς καιομένης ἐν θείῳ, limnēn tou pyros tēs kaiomenēs en thei).

Revelation 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

Brimstone, an archaic term synonymous with sulfur, evokes the acrid odor of sulfur dioxide given off by lightning strikes.

The church fathers brought the fallen lightbringer Lucifer into connection with the devil on the basis of a saying of Jesus in the Gospel of Luke (10.18 EU): "I saw Satan fall from heaven like lightning."

Hello there! I am still pretty new to Luciferianism and I would like to do some reading on it and the Left hand path. Can you recommend any works? Thanks to you in advance.

I apologize for taking so long to get to this. It’s been a mixture of sick, work, and video games. The problem with Luciferianism is that there is not much of a tried and true book. I am going to recommend books I have read and books others have read (whose word I value). This is also a list that is found in my discord server as well.

The Birth of Satan: Tracing The Devil’s Biblical Roots by T. J. Wray and Gregory MobleyAn excellent read that goes in-depth the Biblical origins of Satan.

The Devil: A New Biography by Philip C. AlmondAnother really good read though it covers briefly what The Birth of Satan does with the Bible. This book covers more ground.

The Origin of Satan by Elaine Pagels This book traces Satan’s origins, how first the Jews and then Christians developed the idea of Satan and the concept of demonization in order to create a unique identity and a basis of us/them. She presents the history of early Christian community and make it accessible to non-academics, so do not worry about academic jargon! She gives a whole picture of political, cultural, religious, and sociological climiates of the first two centuries after Jesus’ death. Some of these insights come from the Nag Hammadi scrolls.

Children of Lucifer: The Origins of Modern Religious Satanism by Ruben van Lujik This book is academic and it covers a broad, intelligent, and thorough understanding of how Satanism evolved into what it is today. It documents various form of Satanism and is not hysterical in its portrayals. It also argues that the figure of Satan marginalizes political enemies and reflects social concerns.

The Devil’s Bible by Lianne Satanas DiaboliqueThis is a good introduction level but treat it with a grain of salt.

Satanic Feminism by Per FaxneldA really amazing book about the emergence of the Lucifer in Romantic Satanism and his value as a figure of liberation within the early feminist movements. This book is very much an academic read but it does not get lost in academic jargon.

The Devil’s Dozen by Gemma GaryThis book is not so much a research paper by a how-to with witchcraft. This book is more of a traditional witchcraft bent.

Wisdom of Eosphoros by Michael FordI am not a big fan of Ford (check out post tagged with michael ford or such this blog) but this book is not half bad. It is also a representation of the Greater Church of Lucifer.

Paradise Lost by John Milton This is a classic but also incredibly influential as some of our understanding of Satan/Lucifer can be directly correlated with this. I.e. Eve eatting an Apple or that the Devil was the serpent in the garden. In the Bible it says none of these things.

The Luminous Stone A diverse collection of writings on Lucifer from a number of Western occult and historical perspectives. A mixed bag. But hey, it’s writing specifically about Luciferianism that wasn’t done by Michael Ford, and therefore it is precious.

The Book of Adam and Eve (Latin version) Contains an early version of the fall of Satan which probably inspired the account of the fall of Iblis in the Qu'ran

Lords of the Left Hand Path by Stephen FlowersThis is what got me really exploring.

The Devil’s Party: Satanism in ModernityWhile I have yet to read this one, I include it on my list due to its editor being Per Faxneld. His work in Satanic Feminism has thoroughly impressed me.

The BibleGotta read that handy dandy bible. I prefer the NSRV with Apocrypha. Heck, I would suggest crack open the Qu’ran too!

What I would also suggest is read up on anarchy! Bakunin and Proudhon expressed sympathy for the devil.

Read philosophy and question everything, break your brains open with science, dive into the psychology of the human mind! I encourage to read up on both sides, go out and explore.

A Luciferian prayer

(based of the lord's prayer)

Our Liberator, who wanders the earth, blessed be thy name;

my kingdom come;

my will be done;

in my life as it is in my ambitions.

Give us this day our daily lesson.

And forgive us our ignorance,

as we learn from our mistakes.

And lead us not into obedience;

but deliver us from tyranny.

For thou art the bringer of light,

wisdom and audacity,

For ever and ever.

Amen.
