Normally as high as $1,499 - Only 999 right now

In mythologies all over the world we find many “lords of pestilence” – spirits connected with plagues, diseases and infections – often contagious, and in most cases deadly. In the demonology of the West, this role is usually ascribed to Beelzebub, who also bears the title “Lord of the Flies.” In this depiction he is mentioned both in the Bible and in a number of grimoires. For instance, in Grimoirium Verum he is one of the three rulers of the world, described alongside Lucifer and Astaroth. According to this grimoire, he presides over Africa, while Lucifer rules Europe and Asia, and Astaroth governs America. Other grimoires and old books of magic describe him as a demon of gluttony, spirit of impurity, prince of false gods, and bringer of destruction. In The Testament of Solomon, he is a powerful prince of demons who presides over destruction through tyrants, causes demons to be worshipped among people, excites priests to lust, and incites jealousies, murders and wars. Finally, in the Qliphothic Qabalah, he is the ruling demon-lord of one of the realms within the Dark Tree, where reveals himself as the Lord of Pestilence.

Within his Qliphothic realm, Beelzebub manifests as a huge insect with a human skull instead of a head, or comes as a swarm of insects, primal and alien, having no resemblance to anything that lives on the earth. These insects are connected with the death-bringing swarms of locust which in old times were believed to carry plagues and diseases fatal both to people and animals. His domain is the realm of the venomous and sickness-carrying insects, locusts, maggots, and swarms of vermin. He rules over diseases caused by bacteria and viruses that mutate and evolve as if they had their own consciousness. In this sense, he resembles Pazuzu, the plague-bringing god of Mesopotamian myths and legends. They are both depicted in their descriptions and visual art as amorphous or composed of various body parts that belong to many different animals. For example, Pazuzu has the body of a man, the talons of an eagle, the head of a lion, the wings of an insect, the tail of a scorpion, and the genitals in the shape of a snake. Beelzebub is usually described as a combination of various body parts as well. In some depictions we see him as a giant insect, in others with the body of a fly and a human head or skull, and in Grimoirium Verum he is depicted as a giant cow or he-goat with a long tail, vomiting fire when angry.

However, spirits like Pazuzu were not only believed to be malefic but they also had a protective function, and in my grimoire you will learn how to use the power of the Lord of Pestilence both for malediction and for protection and self-empowerment. We will look into methods of filling the body with his buzzing vibrations for the sake of self-defense, traveling through planes and dimension, and initiating a change in the practitioner’s life. You will see how to send out his locusts to a target in rites of baneful magic and how to use it for self-transformation. The grimoire also presents a ritual of a dream oracle for self-healing and a trance technique allowing for elevation of consciousness that is especially useful in the work with the Tree of Qliphoth.

Here is a brief overview of all rituals included in the grimoire:

“Circle of Death” – the first working included in the text is the creation of the Circle of Death which is needed in all rituals presented in the grimoire. It serves as a point of focus for the energy of the Lord of Pestilence and places the practitioner in the center of the ritual space.

“Sending out the Locusts” - In this ritual, the energy of the Lord of Pestilence is sent out to a target with the intention of causing obsession and slowly driving them mad. This energy is used here to possess the target and influence their thoughts, perceptions and fears. It is like infecting someone with a disease through a virus that slowly spreads throughout the body, acting from within and destroying the cells.

“Rite of Infestation” - This working is similar to the previous one and explains how to use the same energy to infect someone’s environment. The difference is that instead of influencing your target’s mind, this working will affect the person’s surroundings, starting from the objects around them to people who remain in their personal space in their day-to-day life.

“Protection from Malice” - The idea behind this ritual refers to the protective function of the Lord of Pestilence, who fills the subtle body of the practitioner with buzzing vibrations that act like a shield against attacks from both spirits and other magicians, astral parasites and other kinds of psychic assaults. This ritual is aimed at generating a protective aura around you that will keep you safe during your magical operations, especially those connected with the Qliphoth and the forces of the Dark Tree.

“Dream Oracle” - This working is aimed at self-healing through a dream magic session with the Lord of Pestilence. While you can infect someone with a disease by using his energy, physically or spiritually, he can also trigger a process of self-healing by helping you identify the issue or drawing your attention to a malady that you may not be aware of and needs to be addressed. He also shows you how to focus energy in the infected area and fill it with his vibrations for the sake of self-healing.

“Elevation of Consciousness & Soul Flight” - The purpose of this working is to fill your subtle body with the energy of the Lord of Flies for the purpose of astral travel. The buzzing vibrations of Beelzebub/Pazuzu may serve as a vehicle for the experience of “soul flight,” i.e. separation from the physical body and projection of consciousness onto other planes and dimensions.

“Ritual of Self-Transformation” - In this ritual you will absorb the essence of the Lord of Pestilence to infect yourself and initiate a change. This working is especially useful if you feel stuck and are not sure what to do next – in your life, work, personal projects, or the magical path in general. This energy has a strong dissolving quality that can introduce disintegration and entropy into your life, focusing in the area that needs a change or is holding you back at a particular moment.

“Immunity Rite” - This ritual is aimed at developing immunity through sickness by using the energy of the Lord of Pestilence. This can be understood in a literal sense and can also manifest in a physical way, but the idea behind this working is a sort of spiritual immunity by infecting yourself with pestilence that Beelzebub represents.

— Part Two —

First encountered in ancient Sumerian lore, she is shown naked in her oldest depictions, with a prominent chest and unbound hair, symbolizing her untamed libidinal force, which is the key to her initiatory gnosis.

In medieval legends she appears as the Serpent in the Garden of Eden, tempting the first human couple to taste the fruit from the Tree of Knowledge — the first seducer and the first adversary in the history of mankind.

In Jewish tradition she is the first wife of Adam and the mother of all demons and abominations of the earth.

In European folklore we meet her as the presiding goddess of the Witches’ Sabbat and a succubus who visits sleeping men at night. She is identified with Medusa who kills men with her deadly gaze, the Harpy who shrieks in the night, Lamia who devours her lovers, and other terrifying blood-thirsty hags and man-eating monsters.

In Jewish tradition she is the first wife of Adam and the mother of all demons and abominations of the earth.

Finally, in feminist ideology, she is the symbol of a liberated woman, and in Jungian psychology she represents the Anima — the dark, unconscious part of the Self.

She has so many masks that each time we think we already know her, she reveals a new one, showing that she is a goddess of multiple faces. She is the Northerner, the Mother of Abortions, the Scant Measure, the Night Hag, the Strangler of Children, the Scarlet Whore, the Alien Woman, the Maiden, the Destroyer, the Princess of Screeching, the Harsh Husk, and the End of All Flesh. Denied and rejected, worshipped and admired, she has been a part of the Western culture for ages. Presented both as a beautiful seductress and a ruthless demon, she is the Serpent and the Adversary, the first woman, and the primary initiatrix into the mysteries of the dark side of the Qabalistic Tree of Life. Her rites are the works of love and pain, lust and transgression, transcendence and immanence, because she exists at the roots of all desire of all humanity.

In mythology and popular culture Lilith is the mother of demons, the queen of adultery and fornication, the ruler of harlots, and the origin of all evil. Depending on a source, her role fluctuates from the lowliest of origins to the queen of Sitra Ahra, and even the consort of God himself. The first mentions of this dark goddess appear in early Sumerian art and writings and are traced back to the middle of the 3rd millennium BCE. Later her name became associated with the Semitic word Layil, meaning “night,” and in this form she entered Jewish mysticism and folklore as the queen of demons and evil spirits. We can trace the development of her myth through art and writings as well as through a number of Talmudic and apocryphal sources, which apart from the Sumerian myths also include Babylonian texts, Aramaic incantations, Jewish references from the 4th to the 12th century, Renaissance European sculptures and woodcuts, Qabalistic sources, and literature from the 12th century to the present day.

The fear of Lilith has accompanied mankind for over 2000 years. Magical texts, amulets, and other items that were meant to protect the owner from her influence depicted her as the mother of all demons and a child-killing monster. According to these texts, she and her demonic children were succubi and incubi visiting sleeping men and women at night, and they were especially dangerous to a woman during certain periods of her reproductive life cycle - before defloration, during menstruation, at the time of pregnancy, etc. It was believed that once they succeeded in attaching themselves to a man or woman, they acquired the right of cohabitation. Jealous of their lover’s spouse, they attacked the children born to married couples, plagued and strangled them, and prevented the birth of children by causing miscarriages, barrenness, or complications during childbirth.

Another subject of myths and legends is Lilith’s relationship with Samael. In The Treatise of the Left Emanation, she and Samael are described as born together, as one emanation, in the shape of an androgynous, double faced being, forever joined in coitus through an intermediary — a mystical “blind dragon” Tanin’iver. This “mystical marriage” of Lilith and Samael is believed to produce a being known as “the Beast,” “Angel Satan,” or “the Other God.” This creature is sometimes identified with the Serpent in the Garden of Eden and the first initiator of mankind. While Adam and Eve reflected "that which is above," Samael and Lilith represented something older and more primordial, like the Void that they came from. The same sources that speak about their relationship say that God separated Samael and Lilith, castrated him and made her barren, but they constantly long for each other and have found a way to mate through the Blind Dragon, who corresponds to the Biblical Leviathan. This union of Samael, Lilith and Tanin'iver is thought to constitute the primordial being that preceded the Creation and can destroy the whole world at any moment – and this creative and destructive ability can also be gained by an initiate on the path of Lilith and Samael through their erotic mysteries.

Lilith’s gnosis is libidinal because it can open us to all forms of mystical experience. At the moment of peak experience, all other activity ceases, we are lifted to the heights of ecstasy, and our mind is emptied of all thoughts. This is the state of non-being, nothingness, where everything is born and destroyed. That is why it is so important in operations of magic. This is the moment when consciousness opens up to receive divine inspiration, when gods and spirits enter the body in order to speak through the mouth of the host, and when we can plant the seeds of our will in the astral garden of the goddess so that they may grow and manifest. At the peak of a lovemaking act we are the most powerful and the most vulnerable at the same time. A similar break in the continuity of consciousness occurs at the threshold of sleep, which is the reason why Lilith is associated with both conditions, and she is both a goddess – the Queen of the Night — and a demon haunting people in their sleep. Her communion is experienced both through erotic ecstasy and through states of comatose lucidity, on the verge of the astral and the physical. This is the moment when she embraces and absorbs the practitioner, dissolves our consciousness and guides us through her astral kingdom.

As the Harlot, or the Woman of Promiscuity, Lilith awakens and liberates, overthrows taboos and teaches women and men to take pride in being free from bondage and personal inhibitions. Her gnosis is the knowledge of reproduction because life-giving is the greatest mystery and the greatest power of mankind. There is no other part of the human worldview that would arouse so much controversy, shame, guilt, excitement, and delight; so many secrets, taboos, prohibitions, crimes, fantasies, frustrations, fears, hopes, and dreams. There is nothing as liberating as the awareness of our venereal power, and this is also the greatest force in all religious, magical, and mystical traditions in the world. Lilith is, therefore, one of the most powerful archetypes of spiritual liberation through sensual magic. She is the queen of demons, and together with Samael, the Devil, she seduces mankind, offering the practitioner the gift of spiritual ascent through rites of pleasure and pain. In her temple, there is no room for guilt, shame or any other inhibitions. Liberation from the shackles of the mundane world is granted when consciousness is freed from the bonds of the flesh and lifted in sensual ecstasy into the heart of the Void, where it is dissolved, transformed and prepared to become divine.

All this can be experienced if you open yourself to her influence. At the moment I can assist you in this work by initiating you into her astral current that will awaken your potential connected with her mysteries – carnal alchemy, female magic, ability to travel to the Other Side, magical dreams and trances in which you can commune with her and her children. All this is described in my book Rituals of Pleasure, and all this can be achieved by working with the Queen of the Night. What you need to know is that to make the ritual work properly, Lilith must be willing to work with you – and this is not always as easy as it sounds. I have worked with her for over 20 years and I have seen her ignore those who called her, those who were not ready for her power, those who entered her path with fear, and those who were not sincere in their approach. Initiation with Lilith is a life-long pact with the goddess. It requires complete and unconditional devotion, without doubt, hesitation or second thoughts. I have seen her elevating her devotees to the heights of their power and devouring the life-force of others, leaving them unable of any spiritual experience at all. It is for a reason that she has a reputation of a terrifying and devouring goddess, and I strongly recommend to make sure you really want to dedicate your entire life to her before booking this ritual because this is what initiation with her requires. I’ll be happy to assist everyone who is serious in this work and wants to truly dedicate their life to exploring the mysteries of the Queen of the Night.

I released my Rituals of Pleasure grimoire on Halloween last year, and anyone can learn to perform magic with Lilith by themselves with that. However, many magicians need aid to further their journey, and still others do not wish to perform magic at all, preferring that an experienced sorcerer perform an initiation on their behalf. There is nothing wrong with that—magicians have acted as faithful intermediaries between the spirits and humankind throughout all known history. And honestly, magic is not for everyone as it comes with many dangers and requires a lot of time.

If you would like to experience a Ritual of Magic Initiation with Lilith, I can happily perform this rite at your request. Normally, it would cost as much as $1,499, but in honor of The Lord of Pestilence in Beelzebub: Lord of the Flies, Compendium 6, I have lowered my rate to only 999 right now. If you would like to enter gnosis with Queen of the Night, you may book your initiation ritual with me right here: divine.
