© fra Necros The work of an occultist permeates their life and essence. Seeking the correct path is a constant process, and upholding the practice of upward striving requires commitment. We are striving towards understanding and an increasingly perfect humanity. In the Star of Azazel, the work requires purification and unification; one must unite the leftContinue reading “CYCLIC DEATH”

THE SEVERED HEAD OF THE MASTER
“Other Templars questioned after Jean de la Cassagne had seen, variously, an idol like a bearded head which was the figure of Baphomet (…) a black and white idol.”– Malcolm Barber: The Trial of the Templars, II “Item, that they said that that head could save them.”– The Articles of Accusation against Templars (anno 1308)Continue reading “THE SEVERED HEAD OF THE MASTER”
GRADES OF THE STAR OF AZAZEL
In this article, I try to give a condensed idea and tabulations of the different working grades in the three Star of Azazel lodges that offer such. Most of this will likely seem confusing unless one is very much into the brotherhood working already. These are by no means things a member must know. IContinue reading “GRADES OF THE STAR OF AZAZEL”
THE USE OF MAGICAL VOICE
In ancient Sanskrit texts, several possible forms of the use of Vâc, or magical sound, are mentioned. It is possible to reach this sacred speech in physically heard sound, in its subtler form of words articulated in a silent manner, or in the subtlest form, without articulation at all. The last one of these isContinue reading “THE USE OF MAGICAL VOICE”
SALOME 1°
The only lodge of the Star of Azazel to use the grades system so far has been Graal. In Graal, one goes through the grades, each consisting of eight pairs of practices. This year, we are presenting a grade working system of its own for lodge Salome. These grades are very different from Graal’s andContinue reading “SALOME 1°”
Hymn to the Master of Death
The Hymn to the Master of Death is a hymn we use on Saturday, the day belonging to Saturn, the lord of Time and Death – the great transformation. It invokes the spirits of Saturn (Agiel, Zazel), its angel (Zaphkiel), and its divine names (Shaddai). The “Dark Lord” thus besought is a form of Satan. Therefore, itContinue reading “Hymn to the Master of Death”
On Elemental Prayers
In How to Build a Rosary of Azazel, I gave an example of the possible arrangement of the prayer beads’ blessings in our rosary practice. Perhaps the most peculiar among them was the third decade: “Different kingdoms of nature, including the elements. (Human kingdom, Animal kingdom, Plant kingdom, Mineral kingdom, the kingdom of Culture, the naturalContinue reading “On Elemental Prayers”
ZODIAC OF SINS
The readers who are familiar with my books (for example, Fosforos or Argarizim) know that the Star of Azazel system uses the concept of SIN in a peculiar way. Instead of seeing the so-called deadly sins as something which should be avoided at all costs, the tantric approach of the brotherhood seeks to purify the sins and use their dynamicContinue reading “ZODIAC OF SINS”
A Luciferian Hymn to the Son of Dawn
The following hymn was given first in Fosforos book VI, Legifer & Clavis Magica. In the brotherhood celestial hymns practice, it is used as the Friday prayer. In it, we approach together the two aspects of Lucifer: bright and black, the power of manifestation and of uncreation, the male and the female, the virgin – whichContinue reading “A Luciferian Hymn to the Son of Dawn”
How to Build a Rosary of Azazel
An Example The Rosary of Azazel is one of the most used instruments in the brotherhood’s practices. The use of a segmented rosary for the Star of Azazel prayers has been discussed, e.g. in my Unseen Fire #1 article. Here I will give an example of how such a prayer can be acted out. While the lodgeContinue reading “How to Build a Rosary of Azazel”
