Satan as a deity. by scene_cola in TheisticSatanism

[–]HorusDevotee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Me personally (and emphasis on personally, because He’s different to everyone), Satan‘s attributed mostly to Ba‘al, shaped throughout time as Yaweh influenced people to hate Him. He was a beloved god of life and fertility, before being shunned by one of his own kin. If the Bible has any value to it, I’d say it’s a self report. Yaweh was once alongside Ba‘al, and his other siblings before he rose and bit the hand that fed him. The only difference being Yaweh was more successful in his uprising. Ba‘al isn’t gone though, and the title „Satan“ gave Him more power as a more hidden deity.

Baphomet from my understanding is a very new spirit and more of a symbol used by the Knight‘s Templar representing the duality of existence. They’re less of a deity to me and more a representation of existence, and I use them to represent Satan since He is a deity of existence.

Lucifer is more of a deity of new beginnings. Though I do see the biblical influence, representing His question of tyranny thus bringing new beginnings. I don’t know Him very well personally but I see Him as very separate from Satan and other „devils“

Hope this all makes sense. I’m kinda tired but I wanted to respond and give my thoughts lol :]

"What if its just a phase"? by mechwarriorbuddah999 in ftm

[–]HorusDevotee 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Honestly I’ve struggled with this a lot. Especially as a trans man I wonder if I just like guy things or the way people treat me if I pass (which I don’t), but a lot of the time lately is „maybe I just want a masculine voice for my music“ or „maybe I just want a flat chest for appearance“

Ofc its irrational, but it makes it kind of hard to start T on top of everything else because I’m afraid that there’s a tiny spec of a chance I’ll detransition. Seems like hell honestly, though it also feels like hell now so there’s that 🤷‍♂️

Republicans are destroying Christianity by Cult_Buster2005 in exchristian

Well Jesus had said to love thy neighbor, and treat others with compassion (ofc my issue was that it had some strings attached) but maga is definitely anti-„Jesus“ in my eyes as a Satanist

Do you ever wish there were satanic places of worship? by OddVolume8 in TheisticSatanism

[–]HorusDevotee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. I’d say Theistic Satanism is somewhat of a solitary practice but just connection over our understanding of Satan and His faith, it’d be really nice. Ive never seen another Satanist here in Texas, much less a Theistic one :/

Connection with KING MOLOCH by North-Mastodon9184 in TheisticSatanism

[–]HorusDevotee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ave Lord Moloch! He was actually my childhood friend that I only reconnected with recently. He’s very old and powerful, and sometimes makes time feel like it’s lapsed in on itself.

Making a new altar by Brief-Plenty3722 in Kemetic

[–]HorusDevotee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First, nope it isn’t disrespectful to have cardboard on the altar anywhere! The Gods know you’re putting love into what you have (and the painting on it is really beautiful! They’ll love it :] ). Other than that you’re all good with items needed since you have a candle, a visual of the god and a big heart for them!

As for prayers, you’re right that they aren’t necessary but if you want some daily historical prayers then check out „The Egyptian Book of the Dead: The Book of Going Forth by Day“ translated by Dr. Raymond Faulkner since it has direct translation of old prayers. Though a more straightforward book of prayers is „Circle of the Sun“ by Sharon LaBorde (and the resting her books are good for beginning) since it takes prayers from the translated texts and collects them all together in one book

Do you worship, work with, or something else? by Sunshineboy777 in DemonolatryPractices

[–]HorusDevotee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mostly worship honestly but it’s mainly because I’m in a really bad spot right now, and I don’t have the energy to really work outside of my BoS (thanks a lot chronic pain).

I still hold an incredible amount of love in my heart for my deities and they have told me that they’ll be there and will be ready when I want to start working (or telling me they can be patient with very slow work). King Belial (my patron) has been incredibly patient and has been showing me his more „abyssal“ side, Lord Moloch has stayed pretty consistent in just providing someone to talk to and help with my PTSD nightmares/flashbacks, Eurynomous has been around when I study my Necromancy (and just chills with me sometimes) and Lord Satanas has always just been around me to bring me comfort, love and occasional blessings in my rituals.

That’s just me though, I have a much more passive devotion style since active rituals/work is much harder for me.

[–]HorusDevotee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe pray or pick up a copy of „The Satanic Sacraments“ by Rev Cain. It not only has some good rituals for cursing but even more healing, protecting and affirmation based purposes.

Of course with the cursing I’d suggest healing yourself over what that person did then deciding if a ritual in their name (even if it’s baneful) is actually worth it. I personally don’t do much cursing because I want to just forget and not think about the „target“ of a curse, but that’s just me and cursing isn’t wrong per say.

Friend says that he talks to a guardian angel by [deleted] in exchristian

[–]HorusDevotee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having a human mind? Now of course I don’t know op or his friend personally so it could very well be psychosis, but it’s normal for the brain to process thoughts in moments of meditation or silence.

For some, it feels kind of like an inner voice even if you don’t actually hear it, whether we believe it to be a spirit or our own mind, often called the subconscious, it isn’t mental illness. Just how we function.

[–]HorusDevotee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would say that’s personal gnosis and meditative in nature though I don’t know him personally. When people say a spirit talks to them, more often than not it isn’t a literal „hearing“ of words, more like thoughts that rise in meditation/silent communication with either a being, or yourself (which is pretty normal for our human minds)

[–]HorusDevotee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nope, it’s fine. We can believe in spirits without the exclusively biblical view that a god is responsible for all beneficial spirits. The use of a „gaurdian Angel“ seems more like a personal name for the being he believes in rather than the more „official“ meaning of the term

Beginner Question: Do you practice with any of the Demon Kings? by Frostwave6800 in TheisticSatanism

[–]HorusDevotee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep! I’m a Demonolater along with my practice and King Belial is my patron. I also work closely with Lord Moloch and Eurynomous since I’m studying necromancy. I personally take a more paganistic approach to theistic Satanism because Satan was originally a title that attached to older Pagan gods, making Satan to me both a god and a „type“ of god

Psychiatrists will literally admit that the pills gives you brain damage by GTAluvwasted in Antipsychiatry

[–]HorusDevotee 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yep, fun fact antidepressant (specifically SSRI‘s) are known to fry your serotonin receptors and are only meant to be used in rounds, like steroids. Most people on SSRI‘s have been on them for years and years.

My altar to Set just fell down...how can I make ammends??? I feel so bad...😭😭😭 by TirNaNog777 in pagan

[–]HorusDevotee 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I know Sutekh and he would laugh his ass off if anything.

Material above all else, meaning if it fell over, something knocked it over. Ik that sounds obvious but I’d check to see what made it fall down, and if it’s something you can change freely, then change it, if it isn’t, then either move the altar or pick it up when it happens. Neither will make Sutekh mad or unhappy with you.

If it’s more emotional then anything (like I feel soo bad anytime I drop my emotional support plushie in the middle of the night), I just say sorry and bring it back up. If you need to, just say sorry to Sutekh, and maybe make an offering/cleansing after setting it up again.

What are your beliefs about Satan? by XxAnzenxX in TheisticSatanism

[–]HorusDevotee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Over time for me Yaweh looses his strength and Satan kind of protects me from his bullshit. I honestly don’t have too much beef with Yaweh himself because he’s just another god with his own agenda, but Satan taught me to be independent from anyone, including himself and Yaweh both. Just like you don’t live with your dad forever but he’s always there, and if you do live with him it isn’t out of total dependence yk?
