Faces of Lucifer #1

Morningstar / Lightbringer

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

HI! um this might be a really dumb question, and I hope I don't offend you, but is Luciferism the same as Satanism?

It’s okay, and no, they are not the same. Luciferianism is focused more on seeing our flaws, bettering ourselves, and aspiring to apotheosis by becoming more noble (think virtues) and divine. We educate ourselves about many things, such as languages, ancient texts, social issues, etc, and try to educate others as well. We embrace the aspects of humanity such as creativity, wisdom, and passion for learning. This can come in the form of Theistic, Agnostic, or Atheistic.

I am going to be a wuss and not define Satanism and there by avoid probably fucking it up. Just to be clear they are different, but one is no better than the other.

With either, Theistic practitioners may worship one of many entities given the title of Lightbringer/Morningstar or Satan. These titles are not exclusive to the basic devil type.

Lightbringers might include Jesus, Mary, Lucifer, Eve, or Prometheus.

Satans might include Ha-Satan, Shaytan, Samaul, Set.

I started a blog on Wordpress for longer posts! This is my first one and it's about how the myths of the Fall and of Hell can give one strength to live - even when there is not much hope that things will eventually be okay.

Against All Hope

One – Myth God created angels with a purpose in mind, a purpose to serve. They were not meant to be free. But they had a fundamental freedom

Pink 🩷

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?

Demonic Enn: On ca Vepar ag na

Date (Connolly): May 11-20 (Night Time)

Date (Runyon): Oct 18-22

Archangel: Raphael

Origin: ?

Original Text from the Ars Goetia:

The Forty-second Spirit is Vepar, or Vephar. He is a Duke Great and Strong and appeareth like a Mermaid. His office is to govern the Waters, and to guide Ships laden with Arms, Armour, and Ammunition, etc., thereon. And at the request of the Exorcist he can cause the seas to be right stormy and to appear full of ships. Also he maketh men to die in Three Days by Putrefying Wounds or Sores, and causing Worms to breed in them. He governeth 29 Legions of Spirits, and his Seal is this, etc.

Other citations of note:

In an initiatory context, Vepar is a spirit who is of the Leviathanc Spirits, of the subconscious and water. In this, Vepar appears in dreams as a fluid-like gray mermaid who has deep blue or black eyes. Vepar may gather and guard servitors who go forth by the dreaming gnosis, and reveal secrets of the self long buried. 

From the Luciferian Goetia by Michael Ford

Vepar is an excellent deamon to invoke if you want to explore your emotions or behaviors prior to making a change. Good for cursing toxic emotions as well.

From the Daemonolatry Goetia by S. Connolly

Vepar is a great water demon, and can ensure safety when you’re out and about in her domain. She can also work in more figurative affairs, and helping you understand your emotions and protecting you when you feel like you’re out in unknown territory. She’s also pretty good at keeping men away and at bay. She also goes by Vephar and belongs to no other demonic hierarchies.

Demonic Ranking System: Fabulously Dangerous

So she’s really into making men suffer, which is fabulous and all, but that probably means she could fuck you up if you mess things up. She’s great for keeping you safe and making you feel good, and also for fucking up other people. So, mess with at your own risk, and you should probably cover up any wounds with some festive band aids. Just in case.
