before we begin i would just like to say this post will contain my personal gnosis as well as SPG and such will be stated or will be marked with an "*" along with this, a lot of information was also pulled from different beliefs, grimoires, and other sources. Lucifer has many, ๐ข๐๐ฃ๐ฎ, different masks and beliefs tied to him. i will try my best to touch on all of them, but there could be minor ones that i don't mention. i made this post to honor my patron and to hopefully enlighten people of him.
โโโโโโโโโโ
first and foremost we must start with who Lucifer even is, which is a very complicated place to start. so let's first touch base on what his core values / core common traits are among every "mask / aspect" of him are, the criteria being; embodiment / personification of the morning star [ which is also known the planet venus, however is not to be confused with deities like lady aphrodite, lady venus, etc. ], a divinity of enlightenment and of knowledge. of course as time went on and more gnosis and documentations of him appeared, so did an added list of things Lucifer domains and who he exactly is, but the things i listed above are simply the bare bones and basis of who Lucifer is and what he stands for, every "mask" having its own branching differences. Lucifer has many, ๐ข๐๐ฃ๐ฎ, "masks" or aspects tied to him [ be that seen as separate entities or one entity and we will get to that in a moment ], be that his infernal / demonic aspect, fallen angel, draconian, atlantean god, angelic, greek god, roman god, or even egyptian god [ and there are more ] - almost every belief has a personification of the morning star and a deity whom brings enlightenment to humanity [ in some shape or form ] and that is who Lucifer is and what he represents.

Lucifer has many, many mythologies - so to keep this post as brief as i possibly can, i will be speaking on the most common mythologies vs all of them. [ we will however touch on as many of his aspects / masks that i can within the next segment ]. this section is dedicated to discussing origins and beliefs of Lucifer.

depending on the branch of christianity, church, person etc. you ask - his story will vary, but this seems to be the general and basic story of Lucifer and his fall :
Lucifer was the most beautiful angel and was cast out of heaven due to his pride and loathing of humanity; as he wanted to be God and worshipped by humans thus becoming God's equal. he then goes by many names within the Bible : Satan, Beelzebub, Mephistopheles, Lord of Lies, Prince of Darkness, the Serpent, and the Red Dragon, just to name a few. after the great war among the angels loyal to God and Lucifer and his angels, he is then cast out and while on earth turns into a serpent and tempts Eve and her husband to eat the fruit of knowledge of good and evil, which then causes humanity to fall away from God and create sin, destruction, discord, and turmoil.
then getting his "revenge" on both humanity and on God by destroying the very thing God loved so much [ humans ]. in Revelation 12:9 we see Satan [ or Lucifer as their names were interchangeable in Christian belief ] take form of a dragon / serpent to devour and destroy the earth and to deceive people with lies with his angels by his side :
โ ๐๐๐ ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฉ ๐๐ง๐๐๐ค๐ฃ ๐ฌ๐๐จ ๐๐ช๐ง๐ก๐๐ ๐๐ค๐ฌ๐ฃ--๐ฉ๐๐๐ฉ ๐๐ฃ๐๐๐๐ฃ๐ฉ ๐จ๐๐ง๐ฅ๐๐ฃ๐ฉ ๐๐๐ก๐ก๐๐ ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐๐๐ซ๐๐ก, ๐ค๐ง ๐๐๐ฉ๐๐ฃ, ๐ฌ๐๐ค ๐ก๐๐๐๐จ ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐ฌ๐๐ค๐ก๐ ๐ฌ๐ค๐ง๐ก๐ ๐๐จ๐ฉ๐ง๐๐ฎ. ๐๐ ๐ฌ๐๐จ ๐๐ช๐ง๐ก๐๐ ๐ฉ๐ค ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐๐๐ง๐ฉ๐, ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐๐๐จ ๐๐ฃ๐๐๐ก๐จ ๐ฌ๐๐ฉ๐ ๐๐๐ข. โ
what is interesting about Lucifers overall story in Christianity is that he takes many forms, and not only that, he and other demons [ in NIV ] are described as angels still despite them being fallen. this could be argued in a multitude of ways but i believe it does show that despite being separate from God, that he and the other demons are still Divine. now notice how the verse says "...called the devil, or Satan" and not the name Lucifer; it can be argued whether Lucifer is or isn't a demon all day and all night, as the only real valuable mention of the name Lucifer and bases of the belief of "he was a beautiful angel who fell and is now Satan" is from the verse in Isaiah 14:12 :
โ ๐๐ค๐ฌ ๐๐ง๐ฉ ๐ฉ๐๐ค๐ช ๐๐๐ก๐ก๐๐ฃ ๐๐ง๐ค๐ข ๐๐๐๐ซ๐๐ฃ, ๐ ๐๐ช๐๐๐๐๐ง, ๐จ๐ค๐ฃ ๐ค๐ ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐ข๐ค๐ง๐ฃ๐๐ฃ๐! ๐๐ค๐ฌ ๐๐ง๐ฉ ๐ฉ๐๐ค๐ช ๐๐ช๐ฉ ๐๐ค๐ฌ๐ฃ ๐ฉ๐ค ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐๐ง๐ค๐ช๐ฃ๐, ๐ฌ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐จ๐ฉ ๐ฌ๐๐๐ ๐๐ฃ ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐ฃ๐๐ฉ๐๐ค๐ฃ๐จ. โ
could it be discussing Lucifer as a fallen angel and then turned to Satan or as the bible knows him, the devil? possibly, but it could also be referring to [ which is my personal belief ] the morning star and only the morning star as it was more so a poem or song talking about the fall of the current King of Babylon [ King Nebuchadnezzar ].
๊ฐ ๐๐๐ข๐ค๐ฃ๐ค๐ก๐๐ฉ๐ง๐ฎ
within demonolatry Lucifer takes many different ranks, beliefs, etc. tied to him. in different grimoires and hierarchies from the medieval period [ which was strongly Christian thus had abrahamic ties to it and from that verse i listed above is why i believe his name is even mentioned as a demon ] he has mostly the title / rank of King or Prince. within the Ars Goetia Lucifer is the overarching and true leader / King but is never listed only mentioned when speaking of other demons. within the Dukantรฉ hierarchy Lucifer has the title Emperor and is the elemental demon of air.
you get my point, he has many many titles - all of them pointing to esteem power, authority and of royalty. Lucifer, in his infernal light, is a demon of immense power and authority and is seen as the Emperor [ or Lord / Prince ] of Air, Enlightenment, Pride, Transformation, the Forgotten and the Lost. Lucifer is mostly shown via royalty, almost all of his titles showing that he is royal. he ranks high in Hell and high in the Council of the Infernal, he is very well versed, logical, skeptical, and full of knowledge and enlightenment.
where he resides in Hell can also be argued and vary within each hierarchy and such so it's up to you to determine your beliefs; within the Goetia Lucifer reigns over all of Hell. within the Dukantรฉ we see he rules over the Element Air. and looking Satan and Sons believe that he resides in multiple planes of the Outer Spiritual World. to me, and in my personal hierarchy i have created, he rules over the Ether [ Air ] plane of Hell. but, where he truly rules over could be argued depending on belief.
iโve had it asked often on which title Lucifer's โtrueโ title is, and quite frankly, thereโs no โoneโ answer. all of these titles show certain sides of him - not particularly masks [ weโll get to those later ] - but they show his attributes and can tell about his character and personality if you understand what each means.
so letโs start with Emperor; being Emperor is the highest rank one could earn, demons who hold this title have characteristics of: honor, dignity, leadership, foresight, wisdom, and knowledge in the arts of war, sciences, and the fine arts. he is royalty and this is also shown via his title โKingโ which - in the Goetic Hierarchy is the highest rank a demon can receive, despite Lucifer not being written about in the Lesser Keys of Solomon, he is still mentioned. Lord is a title that all demons have and is the appropriate title to use if you do not know the demons correct ranking, Lord / Lady is to be used in place of that. Dark Lord is more descriptive of Lucifer, it touches more on his acceptance, transformation and development through the darkness that he fell to. Prince refers more so to the belief of the Seven Princes of Hell; Luciferโs deadly sin being the Prince of Pride, and Pride being Lucifer's Achilles heel and pitfall out of Heaven.

Lucifer as a greek god takes on the name of Phosphorus, a minor greek deity whom is the son of Eos [ titaness of the dawn ] and Astraios [ god of the stars, astrology, & planets ]. Phosphorus and his brother Hesperus [ god of the evening star, who can also be compared to Lucifuge Rofocale within a demonic view ] are personifications of the come and go of the light.
because of this it can be argued that either of the brothers could be aspects of Lucifer due to Lucifer being a bringer of light and because Lucifer accepts and transforms via darkness. Phosphorus is seen as the dawn and torch bearer who brings light, which is very similar to what Lucifer believes and upholds as he brings light and knowledge to his followers and they become skeptical and amazing at critical thinking.
another god who could also be tied to Lucifer is Prometheus, the supreme trickster and god of fire, crafts, and medicine. Prometheus is the greek deity who gave humanity light, which could be seen as literal fire [ like in the story and also parallels the story of the serpent in the Garden of Eden ] but also knowledge to then create that fire. Prometheus also got in trouble with Zeus for giving humanity fire [ his punishment was to be bound with chains and Zeus sent an eagle to eat Prometheus' immortal liver every day, which then grew back every night ].

finding information on his Stregheria's cult connections was extremely difficult in english text, so if anything is incorrect, please dm or leave a comment! i'd love to learn more and to correct anything that is wrong!
in the cult of Stregheria, Lucifer was known as a star god and was known as Dianus or Lucifer, he was the Lord of Light and of the Morning. Dianus Lucifer was the brother, son and consort of the goddess Diana [ roman goddess of the hunt ]; however in some mythos he is the son of Aurora and Cephalus. another note is that the latin name Lucifer was also used as a title among Roman / Gaul texts [ i.e. Lucifera Diana ]. Lucifer was also known as Dis [ Kern ] and had aspects of death and the afterlife tied to him. as Lupercus too in that he was tied with the "Son of Promises" and a bearer of hope and light. all of these aspects tying into Dianus Lucifer being a god of light, the morning star, death, and a bearer of hope and wisdom.it has three aspects that are important to note [ in reference to Dianus Lucifer ] :
the cuckhold; lord of the wild, the forest, god of fertility, sensuality and of death. the hooded; lord of cattle, plants and king of harvest and flora. and lastly the elder; lord of wisdom and guardian of shrines. because Dianus Lucifer is tied to these he also [ via the cult of Stregheria's belief ] had connections and ties to the greek god Pan.

Lucifers draconic mask is one that both he and Sameal share, Nightside, is the dragon whom empowers the individual who is seeking the draconian path. he [ Nightside ] is the keeper of the dragon flame which is what helps transform one into a better self. he helps those along the path alongside Lilith. this version of Lucifer is found in the Qliphoth [ tree of death, as opposed to the tree of life ] but is not the only dragon mask we see. as stated as before, in Revelation we see him in his dragon / serpent form. which causes me to believe that he, alongside Emperor Satan, are an ancient primordial being. he is the one who gave knowledge and enlightenment to humanity and iniates the path of true transformation via either the Qliphoth path or the Draconian Tradition.

Lucifer is referred as the horned god and the patron of witchcraft in Atlantean practice and the path. he is one who guards the gates to the void, the one whom taught the people of Atlantis magick, which gave them no limits and caused them to destroy themselves. he guided them to their unlocked potential, what they did after was up to them [ thus their own destruction fell ]. he, Hekate, Belial and Sepheranz are the "four pillars" and core to the Atlantean path and belief.

the term "mask" is commonly used when it comes to working, worshipping, or other of Lucifer. but what does it mean? in reference to Lucifer a "mask" is another divinity, aspect or "personality" that is tied to his divine energy that is / makes Lucifer. he has many of these masks and as stated in the who he is section, at his core he is the god of the morning star, knowledge and enlightenment.
so who are all of Lucifer's masks? well to compile a short list; Attar [ canaanite ], Helel [ babylonian ], Prometheus [ greek ], Phosphorus [ greek ], Dianus Lucifer [ roman ], Set [ egyptian ], Enki [ sumerian ]. these are only some who tie into being potential / are masks of Lucifer, however it's argued of their similarities and differences. there's many i didn't even touch on in this list such as the witches gospel version of Lucifer, the dark initiator, demonic, angelic, fallen angel, the trickster, etc.
my personal views on masks or aspects when it comes to Lucifer [ especially regarding other deities ] is that they are separate entities entirely, however that will vary if you are hard or soft polytheist. Lucifer to me โ Prometheus, Set, etc. he is his own entity and divinity [ to my belief, a left hand path deity of self godhood and enlightenment, which is why i also somewhat associate him with the demonic ]. but i also know people view divine energy as simply different interpretations which i also understand their view point and is completely valid, to quote dev, an occult friend of mine, on his thoughts regarding masks;
โ ๐ข๐๐จ๐ ๐จ ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐๐จ๐๐๐๐ก๐ก๐ฎ ๐๐ฃ ๐๐จ๐ฅ๐๐๐ฉ ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐ฅ๐๐ง๐จ๐ค๐ฃ๐๐๐๐๐๐ฉ๐๐ค๐ฃ ๐ค๐ ๐ค๐ฃ๐ ๐๐ค๐ข๐ข๐ค๐ฃ ๐๐ฃ๐๐ง๐๐ฎ. ๐ก๐ช๐๐๐๐๐ง, ๐ค๐ง ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐ข๐ค๐ง๐ฃ๐๐ฃ๐๐จ๐ฉ๐๐ง ๐๐จ ๐ซ๐๐ฃ๐ช๐จ, ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐ฅ๐ก๐๐ฃ๐๐ฉ. ๐๐ซ๐๐ง๐ฎ ๐๐ช๐ก๐ฉ๐ช๐ง๐ ๐๐๐จ ๐๐ฃ๐๐ค๐ช๐ฃ๐ฉ๐๐ง๐๐ ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐ฅ๐๐ง๐จ๐ค๐ฃ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ซ๐๐ฃ๐ช๐จ ๐๐จ ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ง๐๐ฃ๐ฉ ๐๐ฃ๐ฉ๐๐ฉ๐ฎ, ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐ฉ๐๐๐ฎ ๐๐๐ซ๐ ๐๐ญ๐ฅ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฃ๐๐๐ ๐ซ๐๐ฃ๐ช๐จ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ง๐๐ฃ๐ฉ๐ก๐ฎ. ๐๐ฉ๐จ ๐ก๐๐ ๐ ๐ช๐ฅ๐ ๐๐๐จ๐๐๐๐ก๐ก๐ฎ. ๐๐ซ๐๐ง๐ฎ ๐ข๐๐จ๐ ๐๐จ ๐ช๐ฅ๐ ๐ค๐ ๐ ๐๐ช๐ก๐ฉ๐ช๐ง๐ / ๐ง๐๐ก๐๐๐๐ค๐ฃ ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐ฉ๐๐๐ฉ ๐ช๐ฅ๐ ๐๐ค๐ข๐๐จ ๐๐ง๐ค๐ข ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐ข๐ค๐ง๐ฃ๐๐ฃ๐๐จ๐ฉ๐๐ง ๐๐ก๐๐๐จ ๐ซ๐๐ฃ๐ช๐จ ๐๐ฃ ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐๐๐ฎ. โ
so it simply depends, i believe that they are separate [ as i believe the same regarding conpantheon, "recycling energy" yet separate - because i would argue that say, Dallyio, god of the dawn and morning star โ Lucifer ].

the mother of Phosphorus via greek mythology [ Eos being the titaness of the dawn ].
the father of Phosphorus via greek mythology [ Astraios being the god of the stars, astrology, & planets ].
is said to be Hesperos' [ Phosphorus or Lucifer in greek mythology ] son and is the brother of Ceyx. Daedalion is seen as a great and mighty warrior in greek mythos.
the brother of Daedalion and son of Phosphorus [ or Lucifer ], Ceyx and his wife Alcyone are most well known for their mythos and love life and controversy with Zeus [ king of the gods and god of the sky ]. Ceyx was the King of Trachis in Central Greece, and his and his wife's story is linked down in resources of you'd like to read more on both of them.
Diana is the Roman goddess of the hunt and is often identified with Lady Artemis and Lady Hekate. Diana is seen as the Queen of Witches [ using the Gospel of Witches, not roman mythology ] she spilt herself and her counter part thus being Lucifer [ who in many accounts has been said to be the patron of witches ]. she is the darkness and Lucifer is the light, together they make perfect balance and harmony. Lucifer is seen as the solar masculine while Diana is seen as the primordial dark feminine.
the daughter of Diana and Lucifer, the mistress who went out into earth to teach the lower and suffering class witchcraft to fight against the Roman Catholic Church and other upper class. Aradia is mentioned in the Gospel of Witches and is seen as a balance between her mother and father [ light and darkness ].
Lucifuge Rofocale is said to be Lucifer's brother, the quote opposite of Lucifer. as Lucifuge Rofocale embraces the darkness and runs from the light leaving an unbalance that still seems to work. he is a high demon in the Infernal Council who is strict, formal, and pushes his followers and those he works with to their absolute furthest. it's also said that Lucifuge Rofocale later transforms into Lucifer in the Ars Goetia; this, of course, is debatable and varies from belief.
of course, God, will be on this list as that is Lucifers father in the Christian view, God created Lucifer. it is said in some beliefs that God favored Lucifer for his beauty and talents of the arts [ as in some beliefs Lucifer was head of the worship to God via the arts, which is why he is a patron of the arts ].
Empress Eisheth Zenunim . . .
from my gnosis and workings with both Lucifer and Eisheth Zenunim, both are spoused to one another and balance each other beautifully [ both being associated with solar and star energies ].
Queen Lilith has been said to be the wife of many demons, Lucifer being one of them. it would be foolish to say that she is only Lucifers wife, as she is listed as also Asmodeus, Satan and Sameals wife.
it is theorized that Queen Lilith and Emperor Lucifer had Queen Naamah as their daughter. as some gnosis and theory speculates this because of the idea of Lucifer and Lilith reigning Hell alone. other theories say that Lilith and Naamah are sisters. so it is solely up to personal gnosis and theory.

so how does one go about worshipping or working with Lucifer? well that answer depends on what aspect you end up resonating with. so i'll touch on how to go about each [ the core ones; demonic, greek, and angelic. it's extremely important to research for yourself as certain religions and pantheons have certain traditions ].
๊ฐ ๐๐๐ข๐ค๐ฃ๐ค๐ก๐๐ฉ๐ง๐ฎ
to connect with Lucifer to work with him you can use his enn, guided meditations, divination, invoking or evoking. working with him [ as far as what he can aid in ] can entail of helping you with pride or ego, confidence, shadow work, any of the arts, baneful magick, warding, air elemental magick, transformation, developing clairs, and understanding yourself and your morals. [ his enn is further down with correspondences ].
as a demonolator, the term worship has a different meaning. worship consists of revering demons and treating them with respect and honor, but also treating yourself that way. as the point is self godhood and transformation to its fullest, demonolators walk alongside demons, not behind them or lower themself under the demon.
approaching Prometheus or Phosphorus with upmost respect; divination, dreams, meditating and giving an offering is the best approach. Prometheus can help with the arts, intelligence, cunningness, science, architecture, and fire magick. while Phosphorus can help with enlightenment, knowledge, star magick, the arts, and retaining information.
traditionally Phosphorus wasnt worshipped anywhere that i could find, Prometheus was though. Prometheus was worshipped in Kerameikos [ in Athens ] by mainly artists and masons / potters due to fire being needed for pottery. worshipping him can consist of giving ox meat [ if available to you ], olive oil, setting up a shrine space, pottery, mason working, prayers, songs, etc.
๊ฐ ๐๐ฃ๐๐๐ก๐๐
working with Lucifer the angel [ fallen ], you can use his sigil, meditation, divination, dreams, etc. Lucifer in his angelic light can help with accepting and overcoming your trials, overcoming ego, healing your inner child, warding, and the arts.

Lucifer can reach out to you via dreams, meditation, or he can give signs via animals such as spiders, ravens, and snakes. however, when it comes to determining signs it can be very difficult. signs are personally and that is why intuition and divination to confirm things, is extremely important. it is also important to note that Lucifer does not have to reach out for you to work with him, as you can reach out yourself. a good rule of thumb to follow when it comes to signs is ;
did it happen more than three times consecutively? what is my intuition telling me? is the animal common in my area? etc. etc. When all else fails too, use your divination tools, divination does not have to be fancy and can be rather simple such as charm or item tossing, dice, pendulum, etc.
