i still identify as a therian, but i dont know how relevant it is in my life anymore as i found solice in this community at a time where i was able to be more connected to my alterhumanity and spirituality

to clarify, i still identify as a therian and the animals i am (deer, horse, and feline clado) but it does not play as big of a role in my life as it used to

so i am going to change my blog to a focus on more of myself! i hope you guys will stick around with me, as i will post therian content but not as often and more about personal stuff

[disclaimer, I use He / They to refer to King Paimon]

Today I was going to meditate with Archangel Cassiel, but instead I was heavily pulled towards meditating with King Paimon. I think it went quite well, so I decided to share it here.

When I was first gathering all my stuff, I had this strange feeling I needed to give something. Now of course I would've given Him an offering of a libation, maybe some water or a tea. It instead ended up being some purfume, which I initially found odd; but it turned out that He quite liked it. It's a smell that reminded me of Him, and the bottle was purple, a colour which I associate with Them being royalty.

[insert me having to decipher my own writing]

Paimon is described as man with an effeminate face riding atop a camel! Also, why make him Stolas’ father?

Considering how Stolas is aged down for some reason, why not make Stolas a family name rather than one singular entity? “Paimon” could be one of the many Stolas’!

and i got to talking to Lucifer about it because I was chatting with someone who came from the Hazbin Hotel fandom (I’ve only ever seen the pilot). Lol

They were talking about giving Lucifer ducks and I was like ??? ducks? does Lucifer have a thing with ducks??? I had no idea???? Which grimoire does that come from ?

And then I go to try and research it and I’m like oh? lmfao okay. Not my Lucifer.

When I asked him, his attitude was very 🤷‍♂️

he said something along the lines of:

“whenever a person makes an attempt to contact a deity for the first time, always, their expectations and understandings are projected onto the spirit. This applies to you too. I appear to you in the way that makes the most sense to your brain and senses. But through this form, I still communicate the truth to you. I appear to you as an older man, older and wiser than you, because that’s how your brain rationalizes my ancient nature. My eyes are the color of the hottest shade of fire because that’s how your brain understands my energy. My hair is an inky black void or blonde strands of light. A morning or evening star. My voice is gentle, my hands are delicate because I embrace you tenderly. You think my light is beautiful, so I appear to you as a beautiful man. I appear to you as a planet because that’s how your brain rationalizes how much larger I am than you.

The funny thing about these people, usually children, is that there’s very little room for me to shine through because that “Lucifer” is a very large character. He’s zainy, he’s entertaining, of course. He’s a cartoon character. They aren’t interested in me or my gnosis, they’re interested in that character. Which is fine, it doesn’t bother me. I like when my name is used in art. Better to have my name said than forgotten. It happens often. Recently, they made a tv show under my name, so those people expected me to be British and cocky. They put Lord Paimon in a horror movie. He had edgy teens contacting him for months.

(he seemed to find that very funny)

Those who are genuinely willing and ready to walk the path will find us regardless of what face or appearance we use or how we are introduced. Most of these people are not occultists. They don’t wish to do the Great Work or know me as a God, so they don’t. In these cases, these people are irrelevant to me.”

so you’re okay with oblivious kids offering you ducks to invoke a cartoon character?

He found that funny too.

“Lucifer has been so many things in so many stories. Some of these portrayals are closer or further from the truth, but they are all caricatures. None of them are truly me. I may use a form that is familiar to someone who is contacting me for the first time. Maybe I’ll be the Lucifer from Hazbin Hotel to make them feel more comfortable. But when the practitioner wishes to know me, the “character” is shed in favour of a truer connection. When we first met I came to you as a light, as an enchanted garden, a serpent, a crow. You did not seek me as a character, you sought me as a concept, Enlightenment. I could take any form, either beautiful or terrible, and you would accept me. You would find value in it. I am not your favourite character, I am your favourite God. These so called “oblivious kids” aren’t offering me anything. They don’t know me, so their actions do not mean anything to me, neither positive or negative. I will always be happy to see people engaging with art, being inspired and understood by it. My name being used in media only presents more opportunities for more people to find me. If people feel drawn to that character, then that is good… that’s fine. But you know that I am so much more than just a character.”

you don’t find it disrespectful at all?

He laughed at that as well.

“I must be among the most disrespected spirits to have ever had his name known by man. I’ve had my name cursed and banished, I’ve been hated, cast away, bastardized and demonized. These people, just enjoying their characters and media, are the very least of my concerns.”

This server was dedicated to not only the demons that I worship/work with. But for all the Demonic Pantheon.

We also have other chats too. If you just want to chill and relax yourself!

I have made this server for months now. -Host

So, come on down, and stop on by.

To the infernal Empire.

There is much to in-store. Much Knowledge from that forbidden fruit. On that beautiful tree.

Enn:Linan tasa jedan Paimon

The Ninth Spirt in King is Paimon. He appears in the form of a man sitting upon a dromedary with a crown. He has a great voice, and roars at his first coming, and his speech the magician cannot well understand it unless he can compel him. He gives dignity, good Familiars, and such as can teach all arts. He teaches all arts and sciences and occult. He can be invoked to bind others. Seek Paimon to understand alchemy, or for creative pursuits or to design a plan of action. Paimon can also help in emotional understanding. He's good for meteorologists and geologists alike to aid in understanding arcane mysteries of the planet Earth. He commands under him 200 Legions of Spirits, and part of them are of the Order of Angels, and the other part of Potentates.

According to Runyon, it's possible King Paimon was derived from a middle eastern pagan goddess. "Paymon" is a tinkling sound as made by the sistrum of Isis. He is sometimes seen as a woman upon a camel.

Sigil:

Unfortunately, this is a thing that cannot be escaped in most pagan communities. There are terrible people in every pagan space; white supremacists have heinously appropriated Norse paganism and their symbols, Greek deities have been used as mascots for misogynists, etc. etc. The thing about hateful people is that they're not very smart. Prejudice is a signifier of low intelligence, whether that be emotional or cognitive. They're not smart or creative enough to come up with their own symbols, so they appropriate the art of others.

This happens all the time in every crevice of our culture beyond spitituality. Conservatives, white supremacists and Nazis have always tried to infiltrate punk spaces, for example, because they enjoy the sound of the music but disregard the message. They're doing the exact same thing with Luciferianism. Lucifer is Liberation. To someone who does not understand what liberation is (because they do not accurately understand what oppression is), Lucifer is just an edgy bad boy who hates God. The "non-conformity" of true Luciferianism isn't inherently contrarian, nor is it actively pursued. My goal isn't to be different from the mainstream; I am different. My goal is to seek freedom from mental bondage. It's fun to cosplay as a Luciferian because the aesthetic is cool, but it is nothing more than an aesthetic for these people.

The "do as thou wilt" philosophy enables people to believe that hate is intrinsic and justified under the pursuit of free will, without understanding that racism and supremacy in themselves are conditioned forms of thought that only benefit the elite. People love to use gods and demons alike as justification for their deplorable behavior or beliefs. It usually comes from a fundamental misunderstanding of what these deities actually represent.

Western demonolatry and Luciferianism in general have always had a problematic history. It doesn't help that many of the most famous figures in these spaces are problematic people. The waters get all the more muddied when Satanism is considered. I have never personally identified with the idea of Anton LaVey's Satanism, the idea of Lucifer as a symbol of defiance against religion; in fact, I see my Luciferianism as a religion itself. I don't think pure instinct and desire should warp your perception of morality, and I am very theistic. My brand of Luciferianism is very different from what would be considered traditional. There's no rule book for Luciferianism. Your beliefs and path are your own, unlike any that anyone else has; calling yourself a Luciferian or a Lucifer devotee does not mean you believe the doctrine of other so-called Luciferians. It means you follow Lucifer.

This ritual calls upon three spirits- Paimon, Bune, and Astaroth- to bless the practitioner with a spiritual familiar. This familiar will assist in spiritual development, magickal workings, and guidance.

Needed:

• Three candles- Gold (Paimon, green (Bune), and blue (Astaroth)

• A chalice of wine, honey, or cinnamon infused water

• Incense- Frankincense (Paimon), Sandalwood (Bune), and Myrrh (Astaroth)

• A sigil or representation for each spirit

• Parchment and pen

• An offering dish with cake or sweets for Paimon, coins or oranges for Bune, and tobacco or coffee for Astaroth

Instructions:

Preparation- Burn a cleansing herb to purify the ritual area. Place Paimon's sigil in the front/center, Bune's to the left, and Astaroth's to the right. Arrange the candles in a triangle with the chalice in the center. Meditate for a few minutes to attune yourself to their energies.

Invocation- Light the incense and then the candles, calling a spirit with each one. First light Paimon's gold candle and say,

"Mighty King Paimon, ruler of wisdom and arcane arts, I call upon thee.

Come forth and grace me with your presence.

Grant me the knowledge to understand the unseen,

And bless this work with your royal command.

Hail, King Paimon!"

Visualize his presence, often accompanied by a regal aura, intricate golden crown, and spirits around him. Next, light Bune's green candle and say,

"Duchess Bune, noble lady of prosperity and spirit,

I call upon you with reverence and devotion.

Bestow upon me the gift of harmony and connection,

And breathe life into this sacred endeavor.

Hail, Duchess Bune!"

Feel her energy, warm and nurturing, yet powerful like the cycles of nature. Finally, light the blue candle for Astaroth and say,

"Duchess Astaroth, keeper of secrets,

Lady of the Depths,

I invoke thee with honor and truth.

Reveal to me the pathways of hidden wisdom.

And lend your guidance in this sacred act.

Hail, Duchess Astaroth!"

Envision Astaroth's presence, often appearing as a comforting and wise mentor with deep knowledge.

Petition- Take your parchment and write down the following:

"By the will of Paimon, Bune, and Astaroth,

I seek a spiritual companion, a familiar of power and wisdom.

One who will walk beside me, guide my path, and aid my magick.

May it be aligned with my spirit and purpose.

Let this be done in accordance with divine balance. "

Hold the parchment over the chalice and speak aloud your personal request for a familiar. When finished, fold up the paper and drop it into the chalice. Visualize energy flowing from the three spirits into the chalice, empowering your request. Dip your finger into the chalice and anoint your Third Eye, heart, and hands symbolizing sight, will, and action. Say,

"Spirits of wisdom, wealth, and knowledge,

I seal this request with faith and devotion.

If it is your will, may my familiar come to me,

In dreams, in visions, or in time unknown.

So it is spoken, so it shall be."

Let the candles burn down or snuff them out with respect. Leave offerings overnight as a sign of gratitude.

After the Ritual:

Be open to signs of your familiar approaching. These can be unusual dreams or visions, a persistent animal or entity in your meditations, the sensation of an unseen presence near you, or intuitive thoughts/messages that feel 'not your own'. Once you make contact with your familiar, meditate on its name. You can offer it energy, food, or dedicate time to commune with it. You can strengthen the bond through meditation, divination, channeling, and dreamwork.
