Inside the Ritual Satanic Chamber the Initiate will find themselves requiring a number of items for Workings within the Satanic Black Arts . . . some of these will be utilized on most occasions during practice while others shall be used less often, maybe only being employed for one Rites regarding certain Ritual Implements.
Those that will be required on regularly are the Pentacle Of Satan (the very heart of Satanic Rituals within this Grimoire), the Ritual Chalice, Candle Holders, Candles (Black and Red), the traditional Black Hooded Ritual Robe, the Altar Cloth, a Candle Snuffer, Ritual Dagger (optional), a blank leaved book (for your hand written copy of the Grimoire), a Black Mirror and either an Oil or Incense Burner.
A variety of small cork stoppered bottles and bowls of either brass, metal or wood are also items that will be required on occasions.
A healthy stock of Crystals are always useful (especially Clear Quartz, Apache Tear, Black Tourmaline, Jet, Obsidian and/or Hematite for Satanic Practices.
The Ritual Satanist will usually have a Pendant (Baphomet, Inverted Cross, Goat’s Head or Inverted Pentagram) that they wear during Ritual as a personal and Consecrated symbol of power.
The Ritual Chamber itself should ideally be a room set up for this purpose alone, however in the busy and mundane world in which we live this is rarely practical, so a room may double up as Ritual Chamber and for a mundane purpose . . . what is important is to use the same room as it will become empowered in itself the more it is used.
The Ritual Robe and Altar Cloth should be Black, while some Satanic Groups do employ other coloured Robes (particularly to indicate ranks and Grades) the Black Ritual Robe is invariably Black in most Orders as is the Cloth although the Cloth may often be emblazoned with the Inverted Cross or Inverted Pentagram in White, Gold or Red.
The Pentacle Of Satan should be made of wood painted Black and upon this should an encircled Inverted Pentagram be painted in Red, this Ritual implement is the very core of the Workings within the Grimoire Malediction!
The Black Mirror is also of great importance with the Workings of Traditional Satanic Rites, it is used in Rituals of Evocation, Invocation, Conjuration, Seership, Necromancy and other more specific Infernal Operations . . . the Mirror may be one of Obsidian or can be an ordinary Mirror painted Black. Other Tools the Initiate may eventually acquire are those for use in Divination and Scrying such as the Crystal Ball, Tarot Cards, Runes, Crystal Pendulum or Ouija Board.
Other implements which shall be used throughout the Workings of Satanism especially in the darker Rites of the Black Arts, implements such as Mandragora Roots, Wooden Discs, Human and Animal Bones, Skulls and a variety of Mirrors of different sizes.
The Ritual Chalice is important to procure as it is used in Infernal Communion on a regular basis and in other Workings also.
The two lists below are separated into important requirements to obtain initially and those that shall be required at a later date should the Initiate decide to venture into the realm of practicing the Forbidden Arts of Satanism

*It has been a long held belief that Ritual Candles should not be blown out but extinguished through the use of a Candle Snuffer, I very much accept and uphold this tradition.
