The Anatomy Of Baphomet

Baphomet is one of the most complex and misunderstood figures in occult and esoteric history. Over centuries, it has evolved from a mysterious name whispered during the Crusades to a symbol deeply embedded in modern occultism, especially within Satanism, Thelema, and Left-Hand Path traditions.

History Of Baphomet

Origins in the Templar Trials (14th Century):

• The earliest known use of the name Baphomet was during the Inquisition of the Knights Templar in 1307.

• The Templars were accused of heresy and idolatry, including worship of an idol called "Baphomet". The exact nature of this idol remains unclear—some described it as a human head, a bearded man, or a demon.

• Most modern historians believe the name Baphomet may have been a corruption of Mahomet (an old form of Muhammad), reflecting the Crusaders' exposure to Islam.

19th Century Revival; Eliphas Lévi:

• In 1856, Éliphas Lévi, a French occultist, radically redefined Baphomet in his book Dogme et Rituel de la Haute Magie.

• Lévi depicted Baphomet as a winged hermaphroditic figure with the head of a goat, a torch between the horns, female breasts and androgynous features, one arm pointing up and one down, with the words Solve (dissolve) and Coagula (combine) on each forearm. This became the iconic image associated with Baphomet today and symbolized the unity of opposites: light and dark, male and female, human and beast, matter and spirit.

20th Century and Beyond (Satanism and the Occult):

• The Church of Satan, founded by Anton LaVey in 1966, adopted Baphomet as a symbol of Satanic philosophy—not as a literal being, but as a representation of rebellion, knowledge, and liberation from religious dogma.

• The Sigil of Baphomet—a goat’s head within an inverted pentagram surrounded by Hebrew letters spelling “Leviathan”—became the official insignia of the Church.

Symbolism Of Baphomet

Baphomet represents balance and integration of opposites. It is a philosophical and alchemical emblem rather than a deity to be worshipped.

Key Symbolic Elements:

• Goat Head- Instinct, primal nature, and untamed energy (possibly derived from the god Pan).

• Torch Between Horns- Divine illumination; the light of intellect and truth.

• Androgyny (Breasts and Caduceus Phallus)- Union of male and female, symbolizing wholeness.

• Wings and Hooves- Duality of spiritual ascent and earthly grounding.

• Arms Pointing Up and Down- The Hermetic axiom “As above, so below”, expressing the correspondence between planes.

• Solve et Coagula- Alchemical principle of breaking down and reforming—transformation and enlightenment.

Baphomet In Magick And Occult Practice

Baphomet is not commonly invoked as a deity but is used as a symbol of occult mastery, personal transformation, and spiritual rebellion.

In Thelema (Aleister Crowley’s System):

• Crowley saw Baphomet as a mystical androgen, a symbol of spiritual initiation and the reconciler of opposites.

• He took the name “Baphomet” as a magical name when he became head of the O.T.O. (Ordo Templi Orientis), aligning it with sexual magick and Gnostic symbolism.

In Satanism (LaVeyan, Theological, Etc.):

• Baphomet is used as a symbol of rational self-interest, rejection of traditional religious authority, and the embrace of carnal existence.

• The Sigil of Baphomet is used in rituals, meditations, and symbolic expressions of personal empowerment.

In Witchcraft and Modern Paganism:

Some non-theistic witches or Left-Hand Path practitioners view Baphomet as:

• An archetype of sacred balance

• A symbol of hidden knowledge

• A guardian of the threshold—facing and integrating one’s shadow

Magickal Uses Of Baphomet

Rituals and Practices:

• Invocation or Meditation- To balance opposing forces within oneself—gender, emotion and reason, higher and lower self.

• Shadow Work- Baphomet can be invoked as a symbol during introspective work, especially when dealing with repressed desires or fears.

• Alchemy and Transformation- In rituals seeking internal transformation, Baphomet represents the alchemical process of spiritual rebirth.

• Sigil Magick- The Sigil of Baphomet is used for protection, empowerment, and banishing fear or dogma.

Altars and Tools:

• Practitioners may use statues, medallions, or artwork of Baphomet to create a liminal sacred space, serve as a focal point for meditation, and represent the divine within and without—a mirror for the seeker.

The Nature Of Baphomet

Baphomet is not a devil, not a god, and not a literal being—it is a metaphysical symbol. Its purpose is to challenge, to enlighten, and to reveal the wholeness hidden in duality. Baphomet asks the seeker to transcend dogma, embrace the totality of existence, and find spiritual freedom through inner synthesis.

Tree of Void Emanation

The void of non-being emanates existence through a generative process and pattern which produces systems of increasing complexity and representative power. At the twelfth emanation we reach what is likely a limit of usefulness in balance with complexity.

Each emanation builds contains and is connected to the previous emanations. The term “sphere” is used as is common in platonic and qabalistic systems as an to reference the formative principles of each emanation. The term “path” describes the connections between the spheres.

Each sphere is counted in two ways, once by sequence starting from zero and again by prime number starting from one. Zero and one represent the identity functions of addition and multiplication. Each subsequent is then given its own sigil which is produced from merging the numeric sigils of its sequence and prime. The pronunciations of the spheres are similarly generated by combining the pronunciations of these numbers.

From this numeric skeleton the story of manifestation is developed upon it both as structured metaphor and ontological framework. Exploration of this framework reveals formulas and techniques for relating to and manipulating reality through the arts of magick.

Chaos 0⋮1 - nĕsh-hĭn - /nɛʃ.hɪn/

Existence emerges spontaneously and without reason from Void. Existence requires no reason. As the Void has no quality whatsoever it is in no way restricted making it the root generative force. This is the fundamental nature of existence. It is spontaneous and without purpose or design. All possibilities assert themselves into being at once, each becoming a “one”, a unity of existence unto itself while retaining nothing in itself.

Process 1⋮2 - hĕzh-ēsh - /hɛʒ.iʃ/

That which asserts itself into being does not exhaust possibility. Every aspect of being is incomplete, retaining its relation to void while constraining and permitting that which may follow. Each emmanation leaves space for the next emmanation so that the process may continue. All connection is made possible by what is left undetermined and reality is never fully manifest.

Pattern 2⋮3 - ēs-ŭzh - /is.ʌʒ/

As the process of manifestation proceeds the shape of the unmanifest spaces influences that which may follow. This causes patterns to arise that unify the discrete units of being. Though each is completely free and separate, they are also manifest as a unified pattern. It is precisely because of incompleteness that these units are able to also become a new unity.

Form 3⋮5 - ŭm-o͞os - /ʌm.us/

Within pattern there emerge forms defined by the pattern and yet independent within it. For example, 5 & 7 are a twin prime pair as they are both prime with a difference of 2. Other twin primes pairs include 11 & 13, 17 & 19, 29 & 31. All prime pairs greater than 3 & 5 have the property of having their sum being evenly divisible by 12. This form of a “prime pair” is well known in mathematics but primeness, divisibility, and addition were not in any way defined in order to produce this form. Number emanates the form of the prime pair. Likewise we may take nearly any game and learn its rules rather quickly, but to learn a strategy is an entirely different matter. Games like Chess or Go give rise to whole vocabularies for naming forms within them. Though the rules teach us how to play, one must become familiar with these forms to play well.

Change 4⋮7 - ăou-chăz - /aʊ̯.t͡ʃæz/

Manifestation may stop at Form to make a complete but static world. The universe of number is a perfect example of static manifestation. Alternately manifestation may remain forever in flux, manifesting and collapsing back into the unmanifest. This gives rise to time and change. Further manifestation takes on a destructive aspect as forms that were can now also cease to be. We move up a level in our analysis to describe types of change and change itself becomes a new type of form. The mathematically inclined may find it useful to meditate on the relationship of a mathematical function and its derivative.

Self 5⋮11 - o͞or-fĕm - /uɹ.fɛm/

In the flow of change through time forms emerge which influence change in order to sustain themselves. These forms are agents of change. Like the first cellular organisms self-organizing around volcanic vents on the ocean floor in the chemical soup of the earth’s ancient oceans. The basic aspect of these agents is homeostasis. These agents direct change to create a dynamic constant. As these agents guide change we may now call this activity Will. In the fullness of emanation we come to identify one of these agents with the self.

Sense 6⋮13 - jŏth-tŏi - /d͡ʒɑθ.tɔɪ/

Agents may be blind actors, no more than a self-catalyzing reaction, or the agent may develop the capability of sensing and reacting to its environment. Sense is the essential element of the encounter of that which is beyond the self. It is the beginning of external self-organization that leads to external manifestation. It is an echo of Process yielded through the incompleteness of the agent.

Thought 7⋮17 - chō-kou - /t͡ʃoʊ.kaʊ̯/

If what is sensed leaves its mark upon the agent then we find the seed for the emergence of representational systems. The agent can now experience itself in time, forming memories, and gains the ability to not just change behavior based on current circumstance but also based on past learning. These internal marks can then be sensed and manipulated and so give rise to symbol, language, and communication.

Desire 8⋮19 - ät-thĕl - /ɑt.θɛl/

Having formed memory the agent now is able to experience the external as something to be sought after or avoided. Want and fear and all the aspects of emotional attachment emerge. Desire attaches the agent to the external and so opens a channel for the external to truly manifest. It is attachment to the world that makes the world. We regard this as a positive development, an overcoming of the limited solipsistic self through desire.

Object 9⋮23 - ĕ-pĕp - /ɛ.pɛp/

Through desire the agent manifests the objectively real. The external is truly manifest beyond whatever sense, thoughts, or desires the agent may hold regarding it, so completing the self-overcoming of the agent. The objective binds the agent while also making possible the emergence of the next level of agency within objective reality. The agent has surrendered its naive omnipotence in its embrace of a new greater level of being in which it only has marginal and indirect power in exchange for a greater state of being.

Subject 10⋮29 - vŭ-sōb - /vʌ.soʊb/

The manifestation of objective reality allows the agent to itself become a manifest object. By surrendering itself into objectivity and becoming limited the agent is able to enter into a space where it can come into authentic contact with other agents manifest as other subjects. Each aspect of the agent obtains and is constrained by a physical correlation. For us humans, this is our brains. Every thought, sense element, and desire is within our brains and is lost to us with disruption of this fragile tissue.

Kia 11⋮31 - fĕ-shĕr - /fɛ.ʃɛɹ/

Kia is the void which remains within manifestation. In the twelfth tree all has manifested and yet Nothing remains. This Nothing is experienced as consciousness, free will, and ecstasy. More than that, Kia is the basis of having any experience whatsoever. All of the aspects of manifestation through the agent can carry on quite well without any conscious experience or free choice within it. In dreamless sleep and in normal waking when on auto-pilot Kia retreats. Kia manifests as the absurd, wonder, the presence of the undefined and unknown. Kia can arise in quiet contemplation, ecstatic overload, and in many ways that open the fundamental questions of being.

Just Add Chaos

Chaos magick is a contemporary magickal practice that embraces the unpredictable nature of the Universe and harnesses its energy for personal growth and transformation. By incorporating the element of chaos into your witchcraft, you can tap into a powerful, natural force that can both challenge and inspire you.

Chaos magick rejects rigid structures and encourages you to forge your own path. It involves working with uncertainty and the unpredictable, rather than seeking to control. Chaos can be a potent source of energy, both creative and destructive, harmful and healing. It is something moving and intelligent, an element of nature that can be tapped into.

Principles of Chaos

These are some of the principles and ideas commonly acknowledged in the practice of chaos magick.

• The Butterfly Effect

• Unpredictability/uncertainty

• Order/disorder

• Gnosis

• Mixing turbulence/nonlinear dynamics

• Feedback

• Fractals

• Strange attractors

• Complex/simple

• Self-similarity

• Spectrums/layers

• Synchronization

• Yin/Yang

• Randomness

Chaotic Practices

Incorporating chaos into your magick isn't hard, yet letting go of control can be. Try to remember that chaos is all around us, all the time. It affects our lives and the world around us. It is within you already and it is yours to utilize. Chaos magick itself embraces multiple practices and systems including, but not limited to:

• Sigils/symbols- Creating/using intentioned sigils for any purpose imaginable

• Numerology- Harnessing both the power and randomness of numbers

• Invocation- Summoning and empowering the spirits, deities, and energies around us

• Enchantment/spellcasting- Invigorating spells with the raw energy of chaos

• Servitor creation- Chaos births spirits of purpose and intent at the hand of skilled practitioners

• Trance/meditation/gazing- Letting the chaos of your mind fuel your own enlightenment

• Music/chants/incantations- Tuning into the frequency of chaos with words and melodies

Correspondences

Colors: Red and blue, rainbow

Herbs: Wormwood, henbane, mustard seed, pokeweed, mayflower, hemlock, mandrake, blue bell, lobelia, mistletoe, blueberry, poppy, apple, wolfsbane, chicory, angelica, boneset, mugwort, bittersweet, saffron

Crystals: Moldavite, labradorite, opal, pietersite, apophyllite, rainbow obsidian, bloodstone, malachite, phenacite, rainbow tourmaline, herkimer diamond, arfedsonite, garnet, corundum, agate, fire quartz

Animals: Wolves, butterflies, snakes, cats, crows, spiders, monkies, octopi, badgers, raccoons, foxes, opossums, rabbits, coyotes, ravens

Embracing Chaos

Many fear chaos due to their perceived lack of control involving it but it is simply another element of the universe. It exists regardless of how you feel about it. So why not invite it into your magickal practice? Why not embrace it fully as the natural occurrence it is and take advantage of it as we would a full moon or a lightning storm. The presence of chaos does not mean an absence of calm, as there is an eye to every storm. You are the eye and the storm, chaos is already within you. Let it free.

Negative Entities, Baneful (Black) Magick, and Ascension

by Amethyst Black

From time to time, those within the magickal community, upon hearing people speak of LHP magick and demonolatry, and also Satanism and even Luciferianism, say things such as, “why would anyone purposely choose a negative entity to work with, when there are many positive ones?” Such a question is fueled by the same type of indoctrination that spurs a similar query–“why would you do black/baneful magick, when you know it will come back to you as karma, or at least return to you 3x the crap that you sent out?”

My response to the first question (“why would anyone purposely choose a negative entity to work with…?”) is as follows:

There is no such thing as a negative entity. We work with deities, angels and demons. Imagine them to be somewhat like electricity–positive current and negative. An effective electrician works with both; one that would choose to work with either positive or negative currents alone, would be considered useless and unwise–a putz, as it were.

More people need to understand that angels work alongside demons, they are comrades. As well, not all deities are fluffy; some are extremely dark–think Angra Mainyu, Sekhmet, Pan in some contexts, and so on. This is by design; entities reflect the mechanisms of our universe, and there is no good and bad, there are only mechanisms that fulfill necessary functions.

In society, we have long been groomed and managed like sheep. This began long ago, and mainstream faiths were carefully prepared to make sure we held certain beliefs, which many adopted. This made it easier to keep us toeing the line. When people adopt new beliefs, many do not let go of all of the ones that provide the basis for unfounded and irrational beliefs–beliefs that make us fear to act in our own best interests. When we work with deities and demons (daemons) both light and dark, we empower ourselves to grow, to access wisdom, to reach out and discover other planes of existence through their guidance, and to have them advise and empower us in life and in magick. 

We were taught that we have to be good, kind, compassionate, and even ‘all love and light.’ However, the groups that teach us this do not demonstrate that, and this paradox alone should tell us we’ve been misled. All love and light is a lie. One cannot be all love and light and be authentic within themselves. Just as you cannot have dark without light, you cannot have light without dark. When one shines a flashlight into a lighten room, nothing at all happens. Light and dark are simply manifestations of differing degrees of light. No-thing in this universe, is without relativity to dichotomy; ergo there is no such thing as a negative entity–they are the other half of an energy-type dichotomy, plain and simple. Hence one ideally needs to work with both light and dark energy beings to keep balance (as above, so below; as within, so without, etc).

I don’t believe in the same type of God that some others believe in. Oh, sure there is a higher consciousness, but I’d be reluctant to define the ineffable. Infinite wisdom, infinite intelligence, infinite creation, for starters… beyond that, there is no saying. But for the believers in God as an entity: Does anyone believe that there is such a thing as an all-good God? really? if so, go read the bible again. I am sooo not into the bible, but it does illustrate the arguments that those who believe in it, toss my way; strangely enough it also offers good counter in as many instances. Many demons were first mentioned in the bible. Imagine that–the bible bore us sh*tloads of demons; then those who profess from it, tell us not to commune with them. Hmmmph… Why? because demons provide us with EMPOWERMENT, that’s why.

The biblical God has a harsh, judgmental side, and that’s the office of Satan (for those who do not know, ‘office’ is the term used to refer to the job description of a demon or deity); hence Satan is half of the biblical God, even though the bible does not make this claim (it should be clear to anyone with a brain though). Speaking of ‘devils,’ those who have worked with Satan and Lucifer, know that they are not limited by common perceptions of them. They are each beautiful beings, when accepted as they truly are; however, now is not the time to delve far into discussing them.

It should be said though, that you could meet a guy whose job it is to electrocute prisoners. Meeting them in the local laundromat you’d probably never know they had it in them, because their executioner persona is not the entirety of who they are. I say this to assist those attempting to understand how this works, in opening their mind. I have never experienced the harsh side of either Satan or Lucifer directed towards me. However, I do not deny that those aspects of them are solid tools in magick, just as their benefic qualities are.

I get it–there is a point that makes the truth in this, hard to see. The idea of ascension… some will think–“are we not working to ascend, and to ascend, do we not need to become more loving, more peaceful, and so on? how does accepting darkness as a means of balance, fit in? how does working with dark entities fit in?" Well, from my own understanding, what we need to do above all, is be authentic; yet unfortunately we seem to have forgotten what authenticity is. There is a measure by which we can feel our way though… 

Ascension is an art; on one hand service to others is a part of that, on the other, service to self is also. The ratio of energies expended between the two via one’s actions, determines whether or not we ascend, the ratio must fall somewhat in favour of service to others. Service to others is not the only way to ascend though. One can also ascend in service to self, but it is a path of precision and one that is usually taught by a master, as otherwise it is difficult to ascend by.

My response to the second query (“why would you do black magick, when you know it will come back to you as karma…?”):

I have a very short and sweet answer: If you intend to engage in magick with such self limiting beliefs as that, then go back to from whence you came. You cannot learn to do magick without limitations, if your thoughts get the better of you right at the get-go. Then, once you have established some proficiency in magick, ensure that if you catch yourself engaging in a self limiting belief pattern or adopting one that someone tries to pass off on you, that you nip it in the bud, period.

Combat Magick: The Art Of Mystical Warfare

Combat magick is the practice of using metaphysical and energetic techniques for defense, offense, and strategic advantage in spiritual or psychic conflicts. It blends elements of protection, attack, and counterattack, often drawing upon personal will, energy manipulation, and ritual magick to influence outcomes in battles—whether physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual.

Principles of Combat Magick

• Energetic Warfare – Combat magick works by manipulating energy to shield, attack, or neutralize threats. Practitioners learn to harness their own energy and direct external forces to achieve victory.

• Intent and Willpower – A strong will is essential in combat magick. The practitioner's intent determines whether their spells are defensive, retaliatory, or aggressive.

• Cleverness and Intellect - When it comes right down to it, your mind is the single best weapon in your arsenal. The practitioner should possess a some level of mental prowess before attempting combat magick.

• Ethical Considerations – While some use combat magick for self-defense, others employ it for baneful purposes. Some witches mayfollow guidelines such as the Threefold Law or personal codes of conduct that forbid the use of such workings.

Forms of Combat Magick

Defensive Magick (Shielding & Warding):

• Shielding: Creating energetic barriers around oneself or others to deflect attacks (psychic, emotional, spiritual).

• Warding: Placing protective symbols, sigils, or enchanted objects around spaces to prevent intrusion.

• Cleansing & Banishing: Removing negative influences through smoke cleansing, salt, sound, or sacred words.

Offensive Magick (Curses & Hexes):

• Curses & Hexes: Directing harmful energy toward an opponent to weaken, confuse, deter, or harm them.

• Energy Manipulation: Sending concentrated bursts of energy to disrupt an enemy’s balance.

• Elemental Combat: Calling upon fire, water, air, or earth to aid in magickal attacks.

Counterattacks & Reversal Magick:

• Mirror Spells (Return to Sender): Reflecting an attack back to it's source.

• Unbinding & Curse Breaking: Severing unwanted energetic ties or removing hostile spells.

• Reversal Magick: Redirecting negativity away from oneself and sending it elsewhere.

Tools & Techniques Used in Combat Magick

• Sigils & Symbols – Used for protection, strength, or attack. Examples include Algiz (protection), Mars glyphs (aggression).

• Herbs & Crystals – Protective plants like blackthorn, vervain, or dragon’s blood; stones like obsidian, hematite, or black tourmaline. Baneful components include herbs like datura, calamus, belladonna or Spanish moss and stones like opal, sardonyx, and garnet.

• Blood & Personal Energy – Some warriors of the craft may infuse spells with personal essence or their own blood to strengthen the magick.

• Chanting & Incantations – Words of power can amplify intent and activate spells more effectively.

• Astral Combat – Fighting in the spiritual realm through visualization, dream work, or projection. This can help you catch your target in a vulnerable position and quickly gain the upper hand.

Who Uses Combat Magick?

• Witches & Sorcerers – Those who practice both light and dark magick for protection or justice.

• Psychic Warriors & Energy Workers – Individuals who engage in spiritual defense against negative entities or forces.

• Shamans & Spirit Walkers – Practitioners who deal with hostile spirits or supernatural threats as well as those performing exorcisms.

• Chaos Magicians – Those who employ sigils, servitors, and energy constructs for their warfare.

Combat magick is not for the faint of heart—it requires discipline, mastery of energy work, and deep self-awareness. While it can be a powerful tool for protection and justice, it should always be wielded with wisdom and responsibility. Whether defending against psychic attacks or engaging in mystical battles, combat magick remains an essential part of the spiritual warrior’s arsenal.

Low Energy Devotional Activities and Ways to Connect with the Gods

Let's be honest, religion and consistent practice can be HARD, especially when you're chronically ill, disabled, mentally ill or neurodivergent. This is a list of lower energy practices you can do to connect with your Gods when you're having a rough day.

Pray. You don't have to say the prayer. You don't have to do the full cleansing and offering. Just think about the prayer. It could be as simple as "'Deity Name', thank you. I'm thinking of you and appreciate you."

Dedicate any self care you do to the Gods. You've got to take meds? awesome. it's now a devotional activity.

If you can, light a tea light candle. You can think about who you're dedicating it to as you're lighting it.

Tell them about your day. Have a simple conversation with them (again, this can be in your head if needed).

Offer some water! Water is a great offering if you don’t have the energy to cook, collect or buy something.

Incense is also a great offering because you can light it then forget about it and your house won’t burn down (if you follow regular safety measures). 

Resting. Your deities want you to be okay. Dedicating your rest to your deities is especially great if you feel guilty for allowing yourself time to heal.

Turn on a video of someone reading mythos! 

Put on a deity playlist. There are plenty of pre-made ones on Spotify. 

Veil or bind your hair! Whenever I’m low energy I’ll throw my hair in a ponytail and bind it that way. It doesn’t have to be extravagant. 

Make a Pinterest board for them!

Post on a digital altar! There are plenty of discord servers that have digital altars and temples. You could also make a devotional Tumblr blog. 

Change your phone lock/home screen to something that reminds you of your Deity.

I hope this is helpful to anyone who needs it! Take care of yourself first and foremost. If you don't think you can manage something on this list then thats perfectly fine too! you're not a bad person for not being able to do something spiritual or religious. Ultimately, these things are not a necessity. Don't stress :)

✨ The Clairs ✨

Main Types of Clairs

Clairvoyance

(Clear Seeing)

The ability to perceive visual information beyond the physical senses. This can include seeing images, colors, symbols, or even visions of future events.

Visualization Exercises

Sit quietly, close your eyes, and visualize objects, scenes, or colors in your mind’s eye. Practice daily with simple images and gradually move to more complex visuals to strengthen your “inner sight.” Meditation on the third eye (between the eyebrows) can also help.

Clairaudience

(Clear Hearing)

The ability to hear sounds or voices that aren’t audible to others, often experienced as inner guidance, hearing someone’s thoughts, or messages from spirits or guides.

Sound Awareness Meditation

Focus on ambient sounds around you, then shift to imagining sounds or inner voices in your mind. Practice discerning subtle sounds in your environment and try listening to soft, repetitive sounds like a ticking clock, letting them guide you inward to hear more subtle messages.

Clairsentience

(Clear Feeling)

A heightened sense of feeling, where someone can intuitively sense emotions, physical sensations, or energies of others or places. This includes physical sensations that convey information.

Body Scanning and Emotion Sensing

Practice a body scan by closing your eyes and paying attention to sensations in each body part. Then, imagine yourself in various environments and “tune in” to sense the emotions associated with each. Journaling afterward can help you interpret the emotions and sensations you pick up.

Claircognizance

(Clear Knowing)

A strong inner knowledge or “gut feeling” without any logical explanation. People with this gift receive sudden insights or knowledge about a person, place, or event.

Intuitive Journaling

Start with a question and free-write the answers that come to mind without filtering them. Over time, this practice can reveal patterns and strengthen your intuitive knowing. Meditation can also help you recognize the feeling of knowing distinct from thought.

Clairalience

(Clear Smelling)

The ability to smell scents that don’t have a physical source nearby, like smelling someone’s perfume after they've passed on or a certain aroma associated with a place or memory.

Scent Memory Practice

Smell different essential oils or spices, then close your eyes and try to recall the scent without it being present. Gradually, this can enhance your ability to “smell” or recall scents intuitively, which may help with connecting to people or memories associated with those smells.

Clairgustance

(Clear Tasting)

The ability to taste something without it being present, often linked to memories or associations that provide information about someone or something.

Taste Meditation

Focus on tasting different foods mindfully, paying attention to each layer of flavor. Then, try to “imagine” the taste of different foods without eating them, as this practice can enhance your ability to pick up tastes associated with people or memories.

Clairtangency

(Clear Touching or Psychometry)

The ability to receive information by touching an object, which can hold energy or memories of people or events connected to it.

Object Reading Practice

Hold an object that belongs to someone and tune into any feelings, images, or thoughts that arise. Let your impressions flow without judgment. Practicing with a variety of objects can help refine your ability to pick up on energies connected to them.

Other Types of Clairs

Clairempathy

(Clear Emotion)

Similar to clairsentience but focused on emotions. People with this ability feel the emotions of others deeply, often as if they were their own, and may intuitively understand others’ emotional states without verbal communication.

Emotion Meditation and Energy Shielding

Practice by focusing on your own emotions and then imagine how others may feel in certain situations. To avoid emotional overwhelm, also practice grounding and shielding by visualizing yourself surrounded by protective light.

Clairkinesthesia

(Clear Movement Awareness)

The ability to feel or sense physical movement that hasn’t occurred yet or even movement on an energetic level, such as shifts in someone’s energy field.

Body Awareness Exercises

Practice sensing subtle movements, such as the feeling of a breeze or the shift of your own muscles. You can also try gentle tai chi or qi gong movements to help you become more sensitive to the flow of energy and movement.

Clairinspiration/Claircreativity

(Clear Inspiration/Creativity)

The sense of receiving creative ideas, such as art, music, writing, or inventions, seemingly from beyond one's own conscious mind. Many artists, writers, and musicians describe a feeling of “receiving” their work from an outside source.

Open-Ended Creative Meditation

Sit quietly with an open mind, asking for inspiration or guidance on a question. Remain in a relaxed, open state, and note any ideas that “pop up.” Regular meditation or creative flow exercises, such as drawing without a plan, can encourage inspiration.

Clairpresence

(Clear Presence Awareness)

The ability to sense the presence of a spirit, entity, or energy without necessarily seeing or hearing it. People often describe this as the feeling of “not being alone” or of a particular being nearby.

Awareness Meditation for Presence Sensing

Practice meditating in silence, attuning to the feeling of your environment. Occasionally pause to sense if there is a “shift” in the atmosphere, such as a feeling of warmth or cold. This helps you discern subtle presences.

Claircosmology

(Clear Universal Knowledge)

This refers to a sense of connection with universal or cosmic knowledge, as if receiving insights about humanity, existence, or spiritual truths. It’s often described as a sudden deep understanding of complex, spiritual, or existential concepts.

Contemplative Meditation

Spend time in contemplation of big questions about life, the universe, or spiritual concepts. Keep an open mind and let insights come naturally. Journaling after meditation can help you capture sudden insights or “downloads” related to universal knowledge.

The Many Epithets of Hekate

An epithet is an honorary and praiseful descriptive title used as part of a name. For example, Alexander The Great. In polytheistic religions, specifically that of Greece and Rome, an epithet was not only a praiseful description, but also a focus on a specific aspect of that divinity and their powers that you are petitioning for purposes related to that aspect. The following is a list I compiled of Hekate’s many historical epithets. These epithets come from the Greek Magical Papyri, The Chaldean Oracles, Greek poetry, hymns & myths and ancient inscriptions. A few of the epithets have unknown meaning. Other epithets are unverified but speculated to belong to Hekate. Either way - the epithets are definitely fitting for Her and I don’t think She’d reject them.

You will find as you go through the list of epithets of this ancient and vast goddess that many of the epithets are contradictory to others. Being a goddess with such an ancient history with many evolutions and having domain over so many realms, it’s only natural that for example, the Greek Magical Papyri epithets which tend to be darker are going to vary greatly from that of the Chaldean Oracles which view Her as a universal power and axis mundi and anima mundi.

This list would not be possible without the work of Sara Neheti Croft, author and artist of Knowing Hekate: A Spiritual Coloring Experience, particularly her posts here. Also the work of Leonardo at Voces Magicae, particularly his post here. I’m extremely thankful for their research, work and devotion. They did most of the actual research and compilation, I’ve just merged them into a master-list for easy reference.

Some interesting thoughts relating to Lord Lucifer and the element of Phosphorus. 

The chemical properties of phosphorus reflect the divine nature of Lord Phosphorus, the Light Bringer, in lots of really cool ways. Phosphorus exists in multiple allotropes, including white, red, black, and violet. Each allotrope has distinct properties that I think perfectly symbolize the various aspects of Lord Phosphorus' divine nature.

White phosphorus' particular ability to ignite spontaneously in air, producing a bright light, can be seen as a manifestation of its divine spark, symbolizing the illumination and enlightenment that Lord Phosphorus brings. The various allotropes of phosphorus, each with its unique properties, can be seen as symbolizing different aspects of Lord Phosphorus' divine nature. White phosphorus, for instance, is extremely reactive and can ignite spontaneously in air, producing a bright, violent and popping/spitting fire. This fire is extremely difficult to extinguish and will reignite if all traces of white phosphorus have not been entirely removed. This property can be seen as a manifestation of Lord Phosphorus' supreme determination in the relentless pursuit of illumination and understanding. Once the spark of knowledge has been ignited, it cannot be easily extinguished, and it will continue to burn brightly, guiding individuals on their path towards enlightenment. Unless contained under water, white phosphorus will eventually ignite- in contact with air, another base principle of Lucifer, it will spontaneously ignite. Lord Phosphorus will inevitably inspire conflict and change, sometimes explosive and destructive change, but necessary and inevitable change. 

Red phosphorus, on the other hand, is more stable and less reactive than its white counterpart. However, it can still be ignited and will burn with a fierce intensity, reflecting Phosphorus’ enduring and unyielding nature, as well as his ability to ignite the spark of knowledge and understanding within people. Red phosphorus' stability also represents the grounding and centering aspects of Lord Phosphorus' energy.

Black phosphorus is a relatively rare and recently discovered allotrope. This allotrope can be seen as symbolizing Lord Phosphorus' mysterious and elusive nature, as well as his ability to reveal hidden truths and secrets as the keeper of the forbidden gnosis. Black phosphorus' layered structure also represents the complex and multifaceted aspects of Lord Phosphorus' divine nature.

Violet phosphorus is a rare and short-lived allotrope that emits a faint violet glow. This allotrope can be seen as symbolizing Lord Phosphorus' connection to the spiritual realm and the mysteries of the universe. 

Phosphorus' ability to be reignited spontaneously, even after being extinguished, can also be seen as a symbol of Lord Phosphorus' power to revive and renew; the cyclical nature of life and the eternal return, where the spark of life and knowledge is constantly being reignited and renewed. Phosphorus is essential for life, playing a crucial role in the formation of DNA, ATP, and phospholipids. Phosphorus can be toxic depending on its form and the level of exposure. White phosphorus, in particular, is highly toxic and can cause severe burns and damage to tissues. When white phosphorus comes into contact with skin, it can cause burns, blisters, and scars. Inhaling white phosphorus fumes causes damage to the lungs (it is unfortunately very frequently used during acts of war. White phosphorus was used in Gaza against Palestinian civilians).

Red phosphorus, on the other hand, is less toxic than white phosphorus but can still cause irritation and burns if ingested or if it comes into contact with skin. Phosphorus is an essential element for life, and our bodies need it to function properly. Some meteorites contain phosphorus-rich minerals, which are thought to have played a role in the origins of life on Earth. This connection to the cosmos and the origins of life reinforces phosphorus' symbolism as a spark of divine creation. However, excessive exposure to phosphorus can be detrimental to our health. In terms of Lord Phosphorus, the toxicity of phosphorus can be seen as a symbol of the dangers of unchecked power and the importance of balance and moderation. Just as excessive exposure to phosphorus can be hazardous, an overemphasis on the qualities represented by Lord Phosphorus, such as illumination and transformation, can lead to imbalance and harm.

The fact that phosphorus can glow in the dark, a property known as phosphorescence, can be seen as a symbol of Lord Phosphorus' ability to illuminate the darkness and bring light to those who seek it. This glowing property can also be seen as a representation of the divine spark within, which continues to shine even in the darkest of times. Phosphorus’ light is unlike any natural light, and yet he glows. 

Certain organisms, like fireflies and glowworms, use phosphorus-containing compounds to produce light. Minerals, like zinc sulfide and calcium phosphate, exhibit phosphorescence, emitting light after being excited by radiation. This property reflects phosphorus' ability to absorb and release energy, symbolizing its role in spiritual growth and illumination. The alchemical marriage of masculine and feminine principles, represented by the union of sulfur and mercury, is said to give birth to the philosophical child, often symbolized by phosphorus. This child represents the illuminated, awakened state of consciousness.

Today I wanted to give you a message Lucifer gave to me today.

It does not matter if you think I do not care about the topic you are explaining to me. It does not matter if you think I am bored by you. It does not matter if you think I don't care about anything you say, even if you talk nonsense, or Christianity, or a crush you had for a week, or what you had for lunch, or this new philosophical reflection that has been troubling your mind for months.

None of that matters, because it is not true. I want to hear your words, I want to hear your thoughts and questions. You are very dear to me, and I care for whatever troubles you, even if you think it is very stupid. It is not, I am sure.

Reach out to me when you are scared, when you are happy, when you are bored, when you are sad, when you feel too much, too little, or nothing at all. I want to hear you.

It does not matter if I care about the topic. If you care about it, I care because you do. If it makes you think, I care. If it makes you feel, I care. If you need to talk, then I need to talk, too.

Talk, my dear, because I will hear you.

That's it. Had a talk with him today and I felt this could be important for someone out there.

How can I find a mambo to be initiated by?

Hi there,

It’s not quite as simple or straightforward as finding a person to initiate you, if that is determined as necessary (and, frankly, if you are just searching for someone to kanzo you, you will absolutely find someone who is willing to take a lot of money from you for incomplete ceremonies and poor work).

Instead, it is finding the person. Committing to initiation, if that is what the lwa want from you, is a process of committing to building relationships with a specific community, a specific teacher, a specific group of spirits, AND committing to long-term, lifetime apprenticeship to your teacher. You want the right person who has the right connection to the spirits and the right knowledge to touch your head and to build relationships with.

How to get to that person? Start with prayer, and ask your ancestors and your guardian angel to guide your feet and bring you to the right houngan or manbo, if that is the path that they and God intend you to take. You can talk to priests who maintain a public presence and see if there are ceremonies you can attend, which is an excellent way to begin to learn about the religion. You can seek out solid books on the religion…the religion is not learned from a book, but some books are good context and history resources.

But mostly, pray. Listen for the voice of your guardian angel in the small things and in the quiet places, and do your best to follow that advice.

I hope this is helpful…please let me know if you have more questions.
