Very well researched post. The point is as with everything in Spiritual Satanism and outside of it, through hard work we can overcome any obstacles. Through death we can be reborn again. Thank you, brother.

Without wishing to diminish your work in principle, because it is largely accurate, I would like to make a few corrections or comments here.
The Greeks, or rather the Gnostics, knew three essential states or stages of human development as described by Irenaeus of Lyon in his writing Contra Haereses I in chapter 7.
1. the hylic, i.e. ὑλικοί, the "material" or sarcic, from σάρξ sarx, "flesh, body"). This was the name given to the person who was completely enslaved to matter and earthly existence and thus lived in eternal ignorance. He could not be redeemed. However, I do not know a Gilik. I only know an andrapoda derived from Andrapodon ᾰ̓νδρᾰ́ποδον. Among the Greeks, he was a prisoner of war who mainly carried out unskilled work in which he could be chained.
2. the psychic, i.e. ψυχικὀς, the "psychic". This was the name given to the person who was not directly capable of knowledge, i.e. gnosis, of the "unknown God", but who could gradually ascend to it by listening to Gnostic teachings.
and
3. the pneumatic, from πνευμα, pneuma, i.e. breath, wind or breath. This was the name given to a person who was directly enlightened by the divine spirit or who worked from the divine spirit, i.e. who was spiritual in the sense of being able to truly recognize the divine. He could be redeemed and became partaker of the pleroma.
In a Nag Hammadi scripture, three Adam figures are distinguished analogously: the pneumatic, the psychic and the earthly Adam. Although they came into being one after the other, they are united in the one and only first man.
In essence, you have correctly reproduced the Osiris myth. However, there were several versions of this myth, depending on the Egyptian cult center in which it was told. As for Seth, he was older than Osiris and in ancient times the one true god, who was later equated with the "evil Satan". However, Seth was originally of a good-natured character and was degraded by the priestly castes to a god of foreigners and an enemy of Osiris. That is why he was called the "red one" and in the papyrus Jumilac he is crucified or bound at the Furka and is pierced by many knives. The Egyptians hated red as a color.

The papyrus Salt 825 shows a similar constellation, only without the pole or furka, of which the following image gives an overall depiction with the "House of Life".

And finally Seth bound at the Furka

The pharmacist, biologist and writer Ernst Krause, pseudonym Carus Sterne, writes in the magazine "Prometheus" about the above picture: "... in one of the rooms of the southern terrace of the temple of Denderah, the donkey god bound to a pole appears pierced by the spears of Horus".1

Let us take a look at Mephitic theology. Horus himself is often regarded as the resurrected Osiris.
The image you have reproduced represents the "green Osiris", who is also understood as the god of fertility. Osiris as the god of the underworld, on the other hand, was always depicted as the "Black God". The Egyptians loved the color black. It is also attributed to Saturn. Who is described in Babylonian writings as papsukkal "the black one" and who, as the god Ninib, possessed the cross as a symbol in cuneiform script.
"When the initiate into the Eleusinian mysteries had victoriously passed all the tests, had looked at and touched the sacred things, and was considered strong enough to learn the last and most terrible of all mysteries, a veiled priest approached him and whispered the enigmatic word in his ear as he passed: "Osiris is a black god".
(Eliphas Lévi, History of Magic. Translated from the French by Fritz Werle, Econ Ullstein List Verlag GmbH & Co. KG, Munich 2001, p. 30)
Let me put it this way: it is about what the Eleusinian mysteries as well as the Osiris myths conveyed and what the highly consecrated Goethe expresses in his poem "Selige Sehnsucht" as the "Stirb und Werde". The human being who strives for knowledge, for gnosis, must first descend into the "underworld", where the source of true knowledge is hidden, just as the gods did in the past. He must connect with the chthonic, subterranean forces in order to be able to participate in gnosis, in "Man, know thyself". He must come to terms with his own subconscious in magical practice.
He must be devoured by the serpent, the Kundalini, the Leviathan, the Phoenician
Nun. The Yehuborim transformed it into Jonah, who is devoured by the fish. Only through mystical death is he then reborn as a recognizer, in the Eleusinian sense as a myste, a silencer and epopte, a seer.
If I have understood you correctly, Isis with her wings is supposed to represent the bird. In ancient Egypt, the bird was Ba, the soul, which was given to humans through the breath. At its death, the Ba bird emerges from the body and goes to the underworld. In ancient Egypt, however, the bird was mainly depicted in the form of benu.
According to Egyptologist A. Wiedemann, the Egyptians particularly called the god of the morning star with the hierograms
benu, Bennu1, which means "to shine".
1 A. Wiedemann, Die Phönix-Sage im alten Aegypten; in: Zeitschrift für Ägyptische Sprache und Alterthumskunde, Sechszehnter Jahrgang. Third and fourth issue, 1878, p. 95
According to religious doctrine, the Benu, Bennu, the "Osiris of Heliopolis", is related to the resurrection. For, "the name of the phoenix in Egypt is Bennu".1
1 E. A. Wallis Budge, The Gods of the Egyptians, Vol. II, Dover Publications, Inc, New York 1969, S. 96
It is the symbol of the transformations of the soul. In the Egyptian "Book of the Dead" chapter 17, Papyrus Hunefer 1, it is written of him (see picture below): "I am the Bennu bird that is in Annu, and I am the keeper of the book of the things that are and the things that will be". 2
But Annu is Osiris.

who handles the mummy of the deceased scribe Ani. To his right is the bird Bennu, the original phoenix. He is followed by Ba, part of the human soul with a human face and the body of an owl; from the Papyrus of Ani, an unusually complete version of the Egyptian Book of the Dead, 1350 BCE1

Isis with the wings can also be seen as the original form of Saturn in its polar configuration before the cataclysmic event.
The image of Seth and Horus, which is generally regarded as a union of kingdoms by Egyptologists, shows very nicely that Seth and Horus are not opponents, but the two pillars that open up the Shushuma path, the middle path, the "golden mean" between Ida and Pingala, between Boas and Jachin, i.e. the path of the Kundalini serpent, in the "whirling", one could also say in the whirling of all the chakras.
In fact, the battle between Seth and Osiris is seen by many as a battle between chaos and order. However, one must understand that chaos is the original state, the "everything" or the "nothing", which was also described as "Nun", "primordial waters" by the ancient Egyptians, from which the god created himself, e.g. through masturbation. Be it Ptah, be it Atum or Amun Ra, the "hidden sun" etc. The ancient Egyptians therefore worshipped Maat, the goddess with the feather, because she reminded them that the Egyptian had to fight every day for the balance between chaos and order.
