What you see here may differ from other presentations of the Qliphoth, and in many of them you will not find the hidden Sephira Daath/The Abyss, but in my personal experience it is the most important initiatory test in the whole ritual system because it unites the entire tree, both in its bright and dark aspects. This makes the path presented in my books unique and different from other approaches.

What also makes it stand out among other approaches is the fact that over the years this ritual system has been successfully tested and verified by many magicians - my friends, ritual partners, and students in the Temple of Ascending Flame. This makes the path much more than a mere expression of personal gnosis, a tendency that has become popular among occult authors in the recent years.

Why do I present this ritual system in parts instead of describing it in one book? Many practitioners work with the Qliphoth for a while, merely touching the surface of this enormous knowledge and power but thinking they have fully grasped its essence. Usually, this is because the gnosis of the Dark Tree is so vast that we mistakenly take a glimpse of this power for its totality. Nothing could be more wrong than that.

The potential of the Dark Tree is unlimited, and each time we come back to this work, we discover more, learn more, and gain more power through this process. Each new encounter with the Qliphoth and their forces affects us in new ways, changing us, and bringing us closer to Godhood. For this reason, my intention is to keep this fascinating work active all the time, with each book taking you deeper into these realms, and each time allowing you to experience new aspects of this spiritual journey. I'll also keep revealing more about my upcoming book, Qliphothic Invocations and Evocations, on a regular basis, hoping that you will find this journey as fascinating as it has always been for me.

Embark on a magical journey with Lilith, Samael, and the Demonic Kings & Queens. In Book 1, you'll discover why I devoted my life to Qliphothic Magic, and why I find it more inspiring and empowering than any other path.

True story... our first printer deemed this grimoire “too immoral and controversial” and terminated their agreement at the last minute. I am not joking; they saw my illustration of Baphomet and cancelled.

This is not your grandmother’s Wicca nor witchcraft for children. The naïve innocence of their white magic does not appear in the pages of this taboo grimoire, which would certainly horrify them. Its intoxicating sorcery ushers you into the most forbidden realms of the Tree of Death where the Demonic Kings and Queens live, and injects their energies into your life.

And of course, I welcome you to participate in the release of Qliphothic Invocations & Evocations at the stroke of midnight on Halloween!

Darkest Blessings,
