1000 Picspams Challenge | #183 Archetype Inspirations | Urban Witches

Patroness of: Beauty, Sex Workers, Business, Families (of the Womb and the Covenant), Female Bonds of Friendship, Devotion, Guidance, Secrets, Change – She is the Innkeeper, Queen and Lady of the Brothel: Mother to the Orphaned, Protector of the Innocent, Keeper of Secrets – It is she who knows All Secrets, she is the Ever-Vigilant, and will stop at nothing to protect those in her care: as such, she is strongly Maternal – but, so, too is she a woman of Great Beauty – she is a Creature of the Night, she is the Street-Walker, the Goods Peddler, and the Barkeep. Patroness of Cosmetics, Wares and Elixirs. (for the more spiritual side of Rahab, see Rahab: The Qedesha)

Call upon her for works of: Beauty, Love, Business and Financial Success, Change/Adaptability, and Protection – particularly in guarding Secrets, self and home. While she, too, Knows All (much like The Witch of Endor) her secrets cannot be bought – only earned, and even then, only to an extent. Her business relies on her ability to Observe and remain Silent – as such, she might also take the roll of therapist: all you need to do is ask.

Symbols: The Red Cord & Copper Coins

For the Story of Rahab, see: The Bible Gateway (for a less than unbiased interpretation)

“Prayer”:

“Lady of Ill-Repute,

Harlot of the Street –

Rahab, bound –

In scarlet garment;

Bedecked in jewels

Of lechery –

Your Crown is polished –

Unbound by –

The Offense of any man,

For business –

Is business;

Red Lady –

Gnash a golden tooth –

And check the worth

Of any coin –

Or Soul –

Who clambers

To your House

Upon the Gates

Of Jericho;

Know my worth –

For I know yours:

Lady of Changing Tides,

Keeper of the Whispers;

For I am a –

Window;

Let down your

Vermillion rope,

Ra-Hab –

And I will scale

These crumbling –

Walls;

A coin of copper,

For your troubles;

And I’ll bestow you

A secret, too –

One you know

To be true –

For it is one

We both know.”

  Ritual:

The Coin of Favor

To garner the favor of Rahab, enter an establishment in which she would reign: bar, hotel, bordello, even a gas station – simply a place in which a wayward traveler might get some peace. Buy something, anything will do, but pay in cash. From the change you’ll inevitably receive, locate a copper (toned) coin, such as a penny. Light (1) red candle, and hold the penny in your left hand – then read the above prayer, tacking on:

“I ask of you –

Lady Rahab,

To lend me thus:

Your favor,

Protect me in my –

Travels;

Lead me hence –

Through Darkness;

And bestow on me:

Your radiance –

Beauty –

And Charm;”

LittleDoomWitch has an archive of their personal experiences with Demons, as well as facts pulled from the Lesser Keys like names, sigils, and all that.

Hermetics has the Greater and Lesser Keys as PDFs (”Solomonic Grimoires”)

This person works with demons, and also has an informational blog about 101 stuff like how to work with them safely and such.

Also check out our Demonolatry tag.  The first two results there have more or less similar information for beginning.

Hope that helps.

Below is listed the Grand Demonic Hierarchy of Hell utilized within the Workings of the Grimoire Malediction … the Infernal Hierarchy governing alongside Satan the Legions of Infernal Spirits that reside in the dark realms of shadow and are made up of the Lesser Demons, the categories of which are also listed below. The Demons that populate Hell are indeed Legion and many of the lesser Demons along with Incubi and Succubi are sent to Earth to carry out the Possession of the pious or aid Initiates of the Black Arts in Satan’s Great Work … such Possessions have been documented throughout history. Later in the Grimoire descriptions, Evocation, Invocations and areas of power shall be given on each of the Demons listed here, this in the Text The Demons And Their Sacred Keys. The Hierarchy given here is the one I work with now at all times although I have worked with others over the years, there will be Demons within this list unknown to some and others will note that some Demonic Names that they are familiar with are missing. The Demonic Hierarchy is three tiered … the first Tier being The Grand Echelon Of Hell (the Ruling Sphere), the second Tier The Grand Council Of Hell (second in power only to the Demons in The Grand Ruling Echelon) and the third Tier is The Grand Ambassadors Of Hell (These Demons work between the Realms of Earth and Hell uniting the Work of the Demons and the Satanic Initiates). Beyond these three tiers there are other Infernal Spirits ~ Lesser Demons, Demonic Servitors,  Incubi, Succubi, Lilin, Familiars and Wraiths (these Wraiths are Spirits that at one time were Egregores, Psychogones, residual forms of the dead etc but have survived to be empowered in Hell). THE GRAND RULING ECHELON OF HELL Satan ~ King Of Hell Lilith ~ Queen Of Hell     Beelzeboul ~ Commander Of The Infernal Legion Abaddon ~ Prince Of The Desolate Pit Asmodeus ~ Master Of The Carnal House Naamah ~ Mistress Of The Carnal House Lucifuge Rofocale ~ Grand Master Of Hell Agaliarept ~ The Grand Gatekeeper Of Hell Ashtarot ~ Grand Demon Of Alliances THE GRAND COUNCIL OF HELL     Arioch Alastor Adramalech Unsere Sargatanas Belphegor Balthazar Asafoetida Mephisto THE GRAND AMBASSADORS OF HELL Rimmon     Leonard     Satanachia               Verrier     Mulciber     Verrine     Ukobach       Nybass     Picollus     Rahovart     Ribesal     Xaphan     Verdelet     Pythius     Arphaxat      Merihim     Shabiri     Succorbemoth     Delepitorae     Proculo     Rosier     Cambion     Carnivean     Ancitif     Sonnellion     Oeillet     Mastema     Pruflas   Bechard Agrat Frimost Mersilde Guland Huictiigara   Surgat Khil marcus©copyright2018

I like teaching people how to welcome new entities into their life. How to work with demons with respect, and to learn things during the process that can enrich your life.

This isn’t one of those articles. Because the thing is, you can’t have a happy, enriching life with anyone while you’ve got a bad influence still hanging around, sucking the joy out of everything and possibly endangering you. So before the fun, awesome parts of working with demons, sometimes you have to get some other stuff out of the way. Call it banishing, call it exorcism, call it purification - this article series is about getting abusive demons (and other spirit entities) out of your space and out of your life. It also covers your options for rehabilitating the relationship into something healthier, if you’re experiencing warning signs in your relationship but think it can be salvaged. This first article will give an overview of your options and some things to think about, drill on basic safety measures you can implement now, and further articles will go into more detail on specific situations and solutions.

“Your veins are the most beautiful shade of blue. I like all of them, even the ones I can’t see.”

“You are small and delicate, like a tiny rodent with no fur.”

“I love the globular shape of your skull.”

Part 2

•Mastema- He is best known as the God of human/demon offspring. He is also known as a diety of disaster, who’s name translates to hostility. He is a Chief of Demons engendered by the Watchers and equated with Belial and his works.

•Mulciber- Rank: Count, Commander of the City Guard of Pandemonium. He is the head Demon of architecture. He built and designed both Pandemonium (the Capital of Hell) and Satan’s Grand Palace. He can bestow great skill in architecture, design, and logic. Mulciber is very industrious and highly intelligent, for he is Beelzebub’s second in command. He is also said to be an expert of strategy and warfare.

•Nergal- Rank: Chief of secret police. He works as an honorary spy in the service of Beelzebub. He is also said to stand at the head of the pantheon assigned to govern the souls of the dead that reside in Hell. He is also regarded as a solar deity, representing the summer solstice and the late-day sun, and is called “the King of Sunset”. Nergal is a God of war and fire, equated by the Greeks to Ares and the planet Mars. He is regarded as a “Lord of Great Dwelling” and said to be one of the Seven Sons of Satan. His wife is Erishkegal.

•Scirlin- Rank: Messenger of Hell. He can be of assistance in summoning other demons, and/or assist in passing messages from the summoner to any Demon. He is friendly and a good facilitator, and and ally and confident of Surgat.

•Surgat- He is a strong Gatekeeper of Hell. He is known to be aggressive and will test a summoner of their spiritual fortitude. He is known as “One Who Opens All Locks”. Escape from him is nearly impossible. An enemy of Surgat is relentlessly pursued no matter how much effort they put into hiding and escaping.

•Sekhet- She is a Demoness of power; her name translates to “the Powerful One”. Sekhet is an honored Goddess of strength, victory, war and battle. Her gentler side reveals a Goddess of healing and fertility. She is represented by lions. She was also known as “She Who Mauls the Enemy”.

•Seshat- She is the counterpart of Thoth, and like him, is a scribe of the Gods. She accompanies and assists him on many projects. She is a Goddess of intellect, literature and libraries, mathematics, astronomy, astrology, architecture, and surveying. She is known as the “Mistress of the House of Books” in which scrolls of the most important knowledge are assembled and spells are preserved. She is said to be the keeper of Hell’s libraries and important books and recordings.

•Thoth- Rank: Recorder of script and legal documents in the Grand Office of Hell. Thoth is equated with Hermes and Mercury. He is a very important and high ranking God of Hell, and regarded as one of the Seven Sons of Satan. He is said to be one of the most brilliant and intellectual of Demons, and is very friendly and charismatic. He is said to be the busiest of all Demons, therefore it is difficult for him to answer to a summoning. Seshat may often fill in for him. He is a God of magick, healing, wisdom, thought, reason and logic, scribes and writing, and secrets. His wife is Ma'at. Thoth is also a God of the moon and the ruler of the third eye.
