Most people encounter Daemonolatry through intensity. There is fear, fascination, urgency, and a sense that something should be happening all the time. Signs are watched for while experiences are cataloged. Silence often feels like failure and progress is measured in moments rather than years. In many ways, starting out feels like a love affair. Everything […]

Embracing Change with the Death Daemonic: Finding Power in Transition
Last year, I was told a big change was coming. I panicked initially, but then realized I wanted the change. Nonetheless, I found myself in limbo, waiting. Unable to do anything or make a single move until circumstances outside my control told me where my life was heading. I grew complacent in that state of […]
Prayer & Meditation
This guest post written by HP, HLP, SP Mark I wanted to write about “some basics” this time. We, as a community, often times overlook or forget about the basics. We’re all guilty (admit it) of at one time or another thinking of jumping to advance rituals and/or workings without learning or strengthening the basics. […]
Fire Festival of Belial
The Daemonic Divine is within you and around you. May the Daemonic Divine bless and keep you all of your days. Naamah. The beauty of Winter Solstice and joys of Yule are almost upon us. Aside from Rite of Belial being a beacon of light in the darkness of earth’s slumber – it’s a time […]
Say Goodbye to 2016!
How would you describe 2016? It’s been so bad for some of my friends that they want to stay up until midnight tonight just to watch the old year die. I’m always up for a decent death bed vigil too, but I’m also a horror writer. I’m tempted to cut off its head and drive […]
The Myth of the Magickal Quick-Fix
I receive emails weekly where someone wants me to make them a pact, item, amulet, fetish, oil, incense, or other mixture that will magickally fix all their life’s ills. As if possessing the item alone, or having someone else do the work for them will allow them to sit back and collect their millions, their […]
The Importance of a Regular Practice
As an author and teacher, I am constantly getting emails filled with questions about Daemonolatry and magick. I don’t mind this because I have assistants who help me answer the vast volume of mail I receive. What’s interesting is a lot of the questions we get can be answered quite simply, “Establish a regular practice.” […]
The Sacred Word
I use a lot of profanity. A lot. I use fuck as a noun, a verb, a pronoun, an adverb and an adjective. I’m also fond of creative profanity like “cock blowing bitch fucker”, “twat-knocker”, and “cunt-cakes”. I also grew up in the family business (male dominated) where I was exposed to profanity daily from […]
Modification & Practice Series: Mini-Guides
These were my “public service” projects for 2013. I call them that because free copies of these mini-guides are available to anyone who wants them.They’re not lengthy tomes, but each one took time to produce. Hence The Modification & Practice Series is here! There are three books in this series. The first is Modified Daemonolatry: […]
Prayer
Prayers exist in many religions. Those of us raised in Christian households (or those of you who have heard “Enter Sandman” by Metallica) probably know the one that goes something to the effect of “Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the lord my soul to keep. If I should die before I […]
