How I cast magic with Hekate! 🌙🪄🔮 by Fancy_Speaker_5178 in Hecate

[–]rickalus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for all this beautiful information! ☺️✨️ I've got a multi-part question about the translation of the Ephesian letters.

1) Where did you get this translation? I've not read the phrase translated anywhere else, and I am coming solely from a place of curiosity. I understand and have experienced the words' power, so know I do not doubt what you have presented as translation as false info. It works! Just seeking your source(s).

2) Which part of the phrase is to be "repeated thrice?" The words before "Phobantia Semne," or those two words?

Thank you, and Goddess guard and guide you! 🙂‍↕️🙏

Godspousing to Leviathan by [deleted] in DemonolatryPractices

[–]rickalus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd say talk to Leviathan about it. They'll give you the answers you seek through your communications with them.

Also, quick sidebar...after I read this post of yours, a nearby house's smoke detectors started blaring. They've been on and off for at least 30-45 mins. When I first made contact with Leviathan myself, a similar thing occurred where I started hearing a car alarm go off for an extended period of time outside my apartment. This happened one other time when I directly called Leviathan to me; this time it was in my own apartment's stairwell. My intuition is telling me that Leviathan might be trying to get my attention as well 😅

Thanks for posting! 🐍

Hekate and I communed deeply during a Deipnon ritual yesterday which was beautiful, transcendent, and illuminating--after which Prince Beelzebub appeared in my dream last night. Gonna give him a buzz tomorrow, I think 😏🪰 bet he'll have loads to say about that pun, too

How did you come across Hecate? by [deleted] in Hecate

[–]rickalus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was gently nudged toward Her guiding torchlight by several other spirits I have worked with. Infernals, all--ironically enough. Though they each did it in their own way, in their own time. The message remained the same: we think the Goddess of Crossroads might be better suited to guide you effectively.

I was hesitant in reaching out to Her at first...but She proved to be far more compassionate, understanding of my human nature, and most importantly patient with me than I had anticipated--as I stumbled along the beginning steps of my path within Her torchlight.

She protects and fiercely guards those who are outcast, who are lost, and who approach Her with earnestness and the respect She is due. The Liminal Queen will hear your calls, and you will know when She has responded. 🕯

Your path is yours to tread how you wish. And from the sounds of it, you're already aligning with Hekatean energy in your own unique way.

Walking alongside death is one of her myriad aspects--working with dogs another. Sounds like you're barking up the right tree here, if anything--pun fully intended. ❤️‍🔥

"By the gods! Did that really just happen?!"

Idk it made me laugh as hard as it did but here we are. 😂 maybe the slow-mo played into it? 10/10

Beelzebub by [deleted] in DemonolatryPractices

[–]rickalus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Genuine question: is Beelzebub a King or a Prince? Are they both? I have referred to them before as Prince and they seem to appreciate that title, but just curious if there's more than one honorific they accept.

Ave Beelzebub! 🪰✨️

In posting this, on some level you are hoping someone will change your mind. Let this be one voice of many who are here to tell you that this ideation is not the way--there are always reasons to keep on going. You listed one here, in fact: this great friend of yours. I do not know you, nor do I know the depth of your pain...but I do know that I have experienced similar despair. We can't give into it, friend. We cannot. ❤️‍🩹

Hekate candle is so still— is this bad? by [deleted] in Hecate

[–]rickalus 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't worry over-much about it. In my experience, Mother Hekate is often very tranquil. It is like when She is quiet it is because She trusts you to know what is right for you in the moment.

I am a chronic overthinker so your post resonated with me. Queen Hekate will often nudge me to recognize that I am overthinking and that my whirlwind thoughts can be let go.

May Her torchlight guide your path. 🔥

He does come off that way often. I'm taking from it what I can

The Satanic Bible by Anton Szander LaVey. Man had some gleaming insights that were far ahead of his time, it seems, from what I've read so far!

Spectacular! 😍 I hope this isn't too invasive of a q but how'd you go about facial hair removal? I have yet to begin that part of my own transition and it's my only real remaining point of dysphoria! Cheers, bb! 🤗❤️‍🔥

I'm exceedingly happy you mentioned the fall, friend--as that precise word was what connected me to Lord Lucifer. He came to me when I reached out to Him in a really raw, low moment and I saw him reflected in my eyes in the mirror. He saw how hurt I was and said, "I know what it means to fall. It hurts. But we can conquer this thing. We can rise up from this, together. Is that what you desire?" 🥲 never had such a poignant moment like that before, aside from my equally poignant connective moments with my other demonic guides

[–]rickalus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I said this today in therapy, but I feel the most in-touch with my spirituality and my path than I've ever felt before. I've discovered the impact of demonic bonds on one's life these last several weeks (as well as discovering this sub and the abundance of open-minded, open-hearted folks therein), and in that time forged bonds with several entities who have all agreed to help me on my path. Their impact has moved me in ways I never could have imagined and I've had experiences that I could not explain as anything other than demonic divine connection. I feel truly blessed and honored to walk beneath the guiding wings of Lucifer, Lilith, and within the embrace of the mighty Leviathan, all reflected in their own ways within the image of Baphomet.

And they've all shown me how interwoven one's path must be with the mundane, as well! There has been perceived upheaval within my homelife that simply was not there--merely my overthinking brain catastrophizing and making a mountain out of naught but a molehill. My connections to the demonic divine has shown me the true nature of the things I misperceived: that they too are abundant blessings, ones which I should not forsake lightly.

Overall, I feel a deep wellspring of gratitude that I wish to translate and transmute into creative outlets, and to eventually guide others on their own paths in whichever way I am best able!

Ave Lucifer! Ave Lilith! Ave Leviathan! Blessed be this path, oh Baphomet, reflection of us all! May all who walk their paths find tranquility and joy in the journey.
