Thread: The satanic bible

Where have Lavey got this information about the 4 princes of hell from?

Belial lord of earth
Lucifer lord of air
Satan lord of fire
Leviathan lord of water

?

Lucifer dwelt in Heaven and is connected to the roman god of air, intelligence, and enlightenment.

Satan is said to dwell in Hell. Hell is originally supposed to have been a fiery, evil place.

Belial's name means '' worthless'' but is also synomynous to '' without a master''. The idea is that by falling, he has become his own master. Not only is he master over himself, but over The Earth.

Leviathan's name literally means '' the one who dwells in the sea of humanity''.

Make sense?

Anton plagiarized RedBeard's book 'Might is Right'
But reference can be found in The Sacred Magic of Abremalin the Mage, where they are aligned with summer, spring, autumn, and winter.

These Four Crowned Princes of Hell are seen as aspects of what the Temple of Set consider to be the Archetypal Devil . . . Egyptian God Set.
Dr. Aquino, acting as High Priest of The Church of Satan wrote the Book 'The Diabolicon' which described each of these Princes and their history.

further research can be found in Dr. Aquino's eBook 'Church of Satan' . . . http://www.xeper.org/maquino/nm/COS.pdf

Wow thank you so much for the link i will be reading this for sure.

There are counted heaven legion angels and the hell's legions.
Satan is not a personal character, its coming from 'Sheytan/Şeytan' (Israeli and Arabic name) name which means 'Rebellion'...

The Lord of the Satans is the Lucifer. He is the head master of all Satans and Demons.
Lucifer's symbol is light and fire... He is face of Intelligence.

Belial... he was the first supporter of Lucifer when Lucifer rebelled against Heaven's Lords and Army.
Belial's symbol is sword. He is crowned by Lucifer as his loyal servant and 1st commander of Demonic & Humanic army.

Leviathan... he was the 2nd supporter of Lucifer when Lucifer rebelled against Heaven's Lords and Army.
Leviathan's symbol is ice and water. He is crowned by Lucifer as his loyal servant 2nd commander for telling rebellion to Humans.

So, there are not 4 Demons... There are 3 SATANS and Demons...

Lavey was very well read on the occult. He had seen the old grimores...like "Abramelin" and "The Lesser Key of Solomon". Lavey did not think much of ceremonial magicians though. He mocked how they hid inside circles of protection as being hypocritical.

Mr. Aquino was never the HP of the CoS. The HP of the CoS was, up until his death, Anton LaVey.

Also, please bear in mind that Mr. Aquino's book was written to bolster his status. Something worth keeping in mind.

As for Might Is Right, if anyone is interested in hearing what LaVey himself has to say about it, they should read the forward he wrote located here,

I assume Lavey got his information from Christian nonsense and "grimoires" based on Christian nonsense...like Abramelin's, or even Goetia. (Using names of God to control demons...is this really the extent of Satanic knowledge?). Consider Lavey's use of the name "Lucifer" as a symbol or personage of Satan.

The name "Lucifer" is found in Isaiah 14:12 ("How art thou fallen from Heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning!"). It is from this verse that "Lucifer" became a name for Satan. However... the book of Isaiah was written in Hebrew, before the Jews were under Roman rule or even exposed to Latin. The word Lucifer is a Latin word. So...how do you assume one Latin word got into an all Hebrew book of Isaiah...when the author didn't speak Latin? Well...maybe God put it there magically? Or maybe it was a mistranslation?

The term Lucifer was popularized in English from this King James translation. However, the name does not come from the Hebrew or even from the Greek translation (Septuagint), but from the fourth century AD Latin translation of this verse:

quomodo cecidisti de caelo lucifer qui mane oriebaris corruisti in terram qui vulnerabas gentes.

The use of the word "Lucifer" is the result from mistranslating a single verse in Isaiah. So "Lucifer", outside of this one mistranslation, was never used as a name or term for any angel, and certainly not for Satan.

The CoS pdf. just recently surfaced in its entirety, well past any 'bolstering' Dr. Aquino might 'need'. I found this text to be quite revealing and Dr. Aquino is certainly a valid authority on this subject

If I may add to your understanding of Lucifer.


Lucifer is a collective name for Spiritual Freedom, it is about Gnosis. It may be easier to think of this as a philosophy embracing the Luciferian Principle instead of a religion worshiping a Fallen Abrahamic Angel.
I will attempt to explain.

Non-Theistic Luciferians, as myself, are not concerned about Abrahamic symbolism, we follow the Jungian theory of archetypal images such as devils, gods, demons, angels etc., and that they can be used as symbols towards stirring the Psyche in order to assist the momentarily change in our objective universe. This is ritual as we all know it.

The term Lucifer in fourth century Latin was a name for Venus, the Morning Star. The Latin word Lucifer is composed of two words: lux and lucis, (meaning "light") and ferre, which means "to bear" or "to bring." So, the word Lucifer translates to "Bearer of Light".

The word Lucifer is found in the Christian bible (Isaiah 14:12)

How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning star! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

. . . and has been incorrectly understood to mean the Fallen Angel, when in fact it is referring to the King of Babylon

"I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star."

Lucifer is not an Adversary as the word Satan (Shaiten/ha-satan) describes. Lucifer is the 'Bringer of Light' in other words Lux Lucis / gnosis, truth and Divine knowledge. Luciferian Principles bring us the Truth and our Freedom of Will, shows us the way to either be One with God/Objective Universe or to be a god ourselves (apotheosis).

Luciferians do not worship Satan or Lucifer for that matter, we worship our Higher Self. The Adversary is a trans-cultural archetype which existed long before Christianity began in the form of Samael, Ahriman and the feminine aspect being Lilith.

Through the Luciferian principle, humanity first climbed down from the trees and it has represented the flow of progress ever since. But Lucifer may be more than a metaphor for rebellion, enlightenment and advancement - as the pure creative and motive light, Lucifer may actually be the key to life itself!

The DNA within the nuclei of all cells of living creatures contains biophotons or ultra-weak proton emissions - in other words, light! A dynamic web of light constantly released and absorbed by the DNA connects cells, tissues and organs and serve as the organism's main communication network.

Lucifer is on the move inside you and me, chattering between cell and cell, rousing the cohorts of the life-force, keeping us alive and wonderful. Every man and woman is a star - and we know we have our own inner light. - Lynn Picknett "Secret History of Lucifer"
