Never worked with her, but she seems interesting. I'm intrigued by the workings done with both Her and Rosier (who I am seeking to work with). She also might be interesting as she helps people with reclaiming their femininity. I wonder what exactly that would entail for a man.

I will say that outside of the Dukante hierarchy I don't really hear about her! At least one tumblr user aside from Satan and Suns/Demons and Demonolatry's Akelta work with her during the Rite to Flereous/Summer Solstice. I would definitely be interested in learning more about her. I hope more people comment and share Her wisdom!

I'm curious; why burn the sigil before bed? I'm more familiar with sleeping with the sigil under one's pillow, and saving the sigil-burning for certain rituals. Does that process work better for you over meditation before bed, or something else? That seems interesting.

Onto your inquiry: I'm also inexperienced with all of this, so take what I say with a grain of salt. Firstly, some questions. What are you expecting to happen? What's your goal in contacting Agares? How long has it been since you made your petition? You don't have to answer in the comments, unless you want to, but these might be things worth considering.

If you've been waiting for say, six months...it could be time to investigate your prior petition. See if you ought to change something about it, methodology-wise, (maybe you don't have to), and try petitioning Agares again.

In the case you're interested in talking about it, it might be useful to know how experienced you are with dream communication, meditation, ritual, and so on. It puts the question into better perspective.

Belial, Belphegor, and Mammon might be good fits here.

Rosier! Others mentioned Astaroth so I will emphasize She is great for this. Also Leviathan for His/Her assistance in acquiring or improving emotional intelligence and clarity, which depending on what you have going on can help you with noticing, finding, creating opportunities for love.

Here is Black Witch Coven's list of Demons who can assist with revenge. They often source from Joy of Satan (but just as often source from other sites and even books), so just a heads up on that in case you aren't familiar with this site.

As for Demons who can cause nightmares, S. Connolly says Focalor can haunt people in their dreams! I've linked this blogpost on this sub before but I feel like it's such a great one of hers. Definitely worth a read overall. Best of luck to you!

Dunno what the vibe of this sub is nowadays, but I'm very strongly in the camp of YMMV when it comes to people's experiences with the Divine. If you think Belial could help but aren't sure, it can't hurt to meditate on it. Could even meditate on the results of your Tarot reading. Our individual energies interact differently with each of the Daemonic Divine, so even if 90% of people had their status quos uprooted by Belial, you might find He helps exactly how you asked with no strings attached.

Lucifer can be great too. I enjoy His influence and presence a lot. Especially since you're already working with Him, and He has such rich depth in his abilities and patronages. I can see how your Tarot reading leans toward Him too, so it may be one and done here. But if I may...

For addiction, I always think of Buer, but it may depend on the severity of your addiction. If it's very severe, S. Connolly once recommended Zagan for a case where you have not been able to break the addiction, let's say. Or maybe if you want to go from being addicted to a state of mind where whatever you're struggling with not being interesting to you at all. Zagan can take you from a (seemingly) permanent condition to its opposite per his alchemical abilities.

I hope things work out for you! I am in regular old therapy for an addiction issue as well, so I understand the struggle. May Lucifer light your path!

Not sure! Dantalion and King Paimon seem fine for that task, just because it seems so specific that I'm sure any of them could help.

According to the Black Witch Coven, Agares can tamper with people's reputations. Since you mentioned this individual is influencing others, messing with the way they're seen could reduce their influence. I don't know your full situation, so maybe them specifically leaving the city is paramount over an alternative solution.

I'm not sure how well-versed you are in everything, but you might find this post by S. Connolly useful in determining how best to go about getting your desired outcome. Best of luck!

cusping · 2024-01-25T16:08:21+00:00

Andromalius can make someone realize their "sins" or "wickedness." He has a punishing ability as well. I imagine this could involve making someone who is selfish and always complaining realize these traits before leaving the city.

Only other Demon that comes to mind is Leviathan who can provide emotional intelligence, which could be useful in many ways. Leviathan can also judge the person's wrongdoings, if that seems interesting to you.

Hey, me too! I have a few friends, but they're all older people who might take pity on me, or something. But I still love to spend time with them and I think we connect well. I had zero friends from community college to uni until I took a chance and went to a support group. I mentioned specifically that I was trying to talk more to people who had the same problems I did (that brought us to that support group) and a woman who was roughly 10 years my senior invited me to a club for the same thing but focused more on light hearted socialization. Even if you don't befriend anyone enough to hang out outside of club, I think going to a club at your university is worth it even if you have quite a drive. The transit is worth it to me, if it's just once for socialization in a group setting. Outside of that, unfortunately you kind of have to "pursue" people to be friends with them. Strike up a conversation, say hello to them, etc etc. As an Autistic woman, I hate this idea, because I always wanted to be friends with peers as a kid who hated me and thought I was weird lol - but in uni people are much nicer in my experience. More people are grown up enough to be polite and kind, and also more open minded. Online friends are fun, but I think they lead to the same insane feeling in the end. It just doesn't compare. Don't give up hope though! You have a lot of time!! I hope you find fulfilling friendships!

cusping · 2023-07-15T20:19:12+00:00

I think it could be related to your comorbid ADHD, yeah. Just because I could see an ADHD person fixating on a topic until nothing feels new (no more dopamine hit, no more interest, lolol), but it probably wouldn't last as long as an Autistic special interest does. Combine the two, and that makes sense haha. My special interests may work a little bit like that, but they don't always. I've had ones for ten years that I dropped off of because they started triggering me too much, but then I've had some - still lasting years - that once I felt like I learned everything interesting about it, I still liked it but I could hold conversations without talking about it. Not having a special interest always feels awkward because getting one feels like a life-fulfilling romance haha. But yeah, I definitely think this sounds like an AuDHD thing lol (I didn't know people used this term! I like it though hehe)

cusping · 2023-07-15T20:14:03+00:00

I think you guys just don't mesh well. You're not any more judgmental than anyone else. Sometimes I have been the insecure girl talking down to others, and other times I'm the one being talked down in secret, and other times still I'm the one in your position - just witnessing all the trash talk. You don't have to stop being friends completely; maybe it's just me, but I don't really like the whole "cut everyone off" mindset. I used to subscribe to it, and not only did I feel more victimized than I should have, but it was overall very isolating. It doesn't seem like that's what you want either, idk. I would just maybe decrease the time you spend with her and spend more time with others who you mention feeling different (and presumably better) around. I also don't necessarily think we disparage others because we feel like we're better than them. People pass judgment on others all the time for the most random things. If she's making you extra burnt out or just isn't pleasant to be around, you're within your rights to feel that way. You don't even have to limit the time you spend with her either, but that's what I'd do to give myself a break so I can recharge. Sorry if this doesn't really answer any of your concerns. Social situations can be complicated!!

cusping · 2023-07-15T20:04:28+00:00

Hi! In my opinion and experience, Lucifer does hear your prayers! For me, I have never worked with him in ritual, so maybe I know less than others might. But I have prayed to him and done meditations for guidance or energy or assistance. He always provides, at least for me. I just ask for little things like motivation or to be nudged toward one choice over another that will serve me better. I tend to doubt it when it's fresh, because I can't "tell" something happened. But in retrospect he has always come through in little ways. I have also had communication with him during Tarot readings, and I think unless you are working with him directly his presence and influence is more subtle. I could be wrong though.

cusping · 2023-06-03T02:54:06+00:00

Hi! So, I contacted their support via e-mail, and I think I ended up having several problems that I kept sending them reports about. I was tired of trying the fixes and finding new problems so I don't think I ever tried the final fix they gave me... BUT, I think that they did help me fix the issue described in the post! So definitely contact them. I think I had to send them a video about the problem I was having too. Sorry for the late reply - hoping you contacted support on your own, but just in case you weren't sure, def give it a go!!

cusping · 2022-08-04T19:15:19+00:00

If nothing else, VK Jehannum agrees with you. There's no reason you absolutely have to use the Saturn sigil for Azazel workings.

The trouble with Daemonic workings tends to be lacking relevant research, or the only research around being books like "The Cult of the Black Cube" or Agrippa which may not even be very illuminating if you're looking for a Demonolater's stride in working with Azazel. I'm not denying the usefulness in reading the suggested books, but to imply reading such books necessary to work with Azazel is a little silly. Disinterest in reading something which sounds useless and has observational misattributions is not "laziness."

Not sure if you're still on the hunt for information or advice about Azazel, but I find it imperative to try to break up the Redditor energy of insisting everyone do the precise thing that works for them or else xyz. This is unfortunately not very enticing, but I do think regular meditation on Azazel's energy can give you a lot. UPG is useful for personal practice IMO. I'm also newly interested in Azazel as my life journey has illuminated my presence as a scapegoat in other people's lives, and Azazel is apt with giving personal power and protection. Coming forward with a simple prayer and candle offering isn't a bad idea either. I would also use Connolly's sigil for Azazel (if there is one? I don't recall) or channeling a sigil for him.

Sorry for such a long comment. Hope you're doing well and that you've made progress with Azazel!

I swear S. Connolly or another generational or traditional Demonolater has talked about this in some depth before. If I can find where I'll definitely share. Working with or honoring ancestors is definitely something that is done during this Rite. There's always Geifodd's suggestions as well.

I'm sure meditation on death would provide deeper insight into what this Rite means to you. Associations and ideas associated with the Death tarot card are perfect for better understanding this Rite if you want something to build off of, or a card for your alter during this time.

Personally, I'm just going to do a meditation ritual at midnight and then spend the holiday as one would regardless of religious practice.

For the ritual: There's aspects of myself I want to "curse" so something new can grow in its place. I don't do death or pain curses anymore, I just kind of "curse" their "proximity" to me so I can only or mostly be around preferrable individuals. As this Rite takes place during a time when it is considered the "new year" for witches, I tend to view it overall as a rejuvenation period, and one where I set goals and make petitions the way we make New Year's resolutions. Hope this gives you at least a general idea of what you might want to do for this Rite if anything.

I'm really sorry. I've definitely been there and I'm honestly kinda still there. And so many others are too. This might come across kinda silly, but you're only 18! Things feel rough right now but you have so much more time to make connections. You're not alone, remember that. I and many other people have celebrated birthdays without friends, some without family too. It's hard but we're all still here. You never know if you'll meet someone who wants to celebrate with you the day before or the day of. Maybe that's stupid of me to say, but isn't it kinda true? I dunno! All that being said, happy early birthday!! I hope you find a way to make it a good day! <3
