In the Demons section of the JoS website, it mentions that Asmodeus' mother was human and his father is a God. Personally, I've never doubted this to be possible, but I'm curious... Does this still happen? How would we know? What would it look like?

Thank you very much

I am busy with a spiritual square with the intention of healing a debilitated house/planet/sign. I'm 2 weeks in and I'm beginning to feel the effects. The vibrations and affirmation goes well enough, and in a lot of ways I feel healthier, but I'm starting to feel a kind of fatigue in the...

The myth surrounding Cu Chulainn and The Morrigan is similar to that of Odysseus and Athena in Greek lore too. Unknowingly, Cu Chulainn defamed the godess (I forgot how), which causes her to seek revenge against him. Before his last battle, she appears to him as an old woman cleaning the...

There's more to the myth too. Cu Chulainn was supposedly the reincarnation of the Celtic deity Lugh, a sun god brandishing a spear and known to be a master of many crafts, which, and correct me if I'm wrong, we now know to be Azazel. I'm uncertain of how this features within this information, or...

As a fellow South African, I understand what you mean all too well.

Did you use the dream to describe what the guy looked like to the authorities? Or did you use that knowledge to handle things on your own?

In the first dream, I can't remember all the details for context, but, at some point in the dream, 2 serpents appeared. Nothing else seemed to matter at that point in the dream except them. They were entwined, one anaconda green, the other the colour of an albino Burmese python. They had no...

As a Satanist, I believe it's important to remain aware, to keep your eyes and ears on the pulse of the world so that we can act accordingly. A philosopher I read avidly has written a lot on social politics, and has brought light to some troubling issues we as a community should be careful of...

Everything posted here has been most enlightening. Thank you for clarifying, good people!

Essentially, at the risk of a reduction ad absurdum, what I'm gathering is that this is something akin to risk management? Trust and forgive so long as it doesn't pose a threat to you?

I believe I encountered Astaroth this afternoon... I was in the throes of a severe panic attack, one of many over the last few days, when the vision of a woman appeared to me, bathed in white light and a massive wingspan. Two serpents were coiled up and around either leg. Her presence was so...

Thank you, HP. This has been most educational and enlightening. It paralleled a lot of what I instinctively believed, but I just needed confirmation on it.

I'm looking for a bit of clarity... I've recently been compelled to write about everything I've done in life, from my accomplishments to my shortcomings. In the process, I'm reviewing what I've done, what others have done to me, looking at the people that have come and gone along the way, and I...

It took me a very long time to learn social etiquette. I was an ass years ago, but you'll hear from my current colleagues and peers that I have an almost unnatural talent with people skills. Although I get angry at people for their slights against me, I don't lash out in anger anymore. Instead...
