By Miguel Conner – In the article, Luciferianism, I explained how Lucifer began as a haughty earthly king in Judaism, evolved into the prince and
principle of evil in Christianity, and finally became an archetype for inner transformation in modern mysticism. Lucifer is a powerful symbol for the interplay of darkness and light within the soul. In a Jungian sense, Lucifer is our Shadow Self: the voice in our unconscious calling us to acknowledge the dark lagoons of our greatest fears, but in the end delivering oceans of enlightenment for those who take the odyssey of self-knowledge.
But both the modern and traditional incarnations of Lucifer likely had their genesis in the heresy known as Gnosticism—based on another rebellious figure also symbolizing the soul’s journey across the dimensions of the cosmos.
Her name is Sophia. And she has also returned as an important light-bringer for a world on the brink.
The Gnostics depicted Sophia as the personification of Divine Wisdom. She was one of the Aeons—personifications of the Mind of God that comprised the Eternal Realm. Like Lucifer, Sophia is seen as a defiant and fallen being, in some narratives likewise the font of all evil and even the manipulator of mankind for her own mercurial desires. The reasons for Sophia’s transgression against the Eternal Realm are varied and often murky; but the truth is that why Lucifer fell from Heaven is more legend and speculation than anything actually mentioned in the Bible. The commonality between Lucifer and Sophia’s expulsion does point to hubris and curiosity (an always perilous combination for the human ego, as well). (more…)

In the world we currently live in, there is a law of universal order that governs all nature and man. This law is called by
such names as the ‘Trinity,’ The Law of Three Forces,’ or the Three Pure Ones. The number three has been used since ancient times to describe the fundamental attributes, principles or personalities of God, the forces of nature, and even man who is truly a tri-fold intelligence. The number 3 is the power of all creation which uses the law of three forces to create; and as the great mathematician Pythagoras had said, “all is numbers”, and when he says ‘all’, that definitely includes us humans.
These 3 Forces of universal law are: active, passive and mutual or neutral, which includes everything that is made within our universe. The equilibrium of the tri-fold intelligence, or what is also called the Law of Three Forces, or in the Christian religion is called the Trinity. The English word “Trinity” is derived from Latin “Trinitas,” meaning “the number three, a triad”. This abstract noun is formed from the adjective “trinus” (three each, threefold, triple), and as the word “unitas” which is the abstract noun formed from “unus” (one). (more…)

By Miguel Conner – Luciferianism is a modern movement that really can’t be defined as religion. It’s more of an ethos—one of rebellious impulse against all manner of orthodoxy that paradoxically seeks ordered 
illumination within an individual. Luciferianism certainly harkens back to adaptable yet radical faiths of the past such as certain forms of Gnosticism, the Cult of Hecate, or the Cult of Dionysus. Unlike these traditions, it will never truly have defined qualities, and that has to do with the figure it is based on: Lucifer.
Although mainstream Christianity has always contended that Lucifer is another name for Satan, the reality is that Lucifer, truly by accident and by error, encompasses more elements than being the prosecutor of Yahweh or a fallen angel. In the Bible, Lucifer, as a dubious proper name, makes one appearance:
How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!” (Isaiah 14:12-KJV)
The problem with this passage is that it is a translation based on Saint Jerome’s Latin Vulgate, where the name “Lucifer” is not a proper name but the Latin for “morning star” or “light-bearer of the morning.” Later translations from the Latin Vulgate assumed it was a proper name and associated it with Satan. Isaiah is actually referring to the doom of a Babylonian king. Referring to earthly kings metaphorically as stars (or fallen stars) was not uncommon in ancient Judaism (it happens in Ezekiel 28:12, which many Christian also believe refers to Satan).
Furthermore, Jesus himself is referred to as the morning star in the New Testament (2 Peter 1:19, Revelation 22:16), in a parallel literary technique of linking the Messiah to the coming of dawn. In both Luke 10:18 and Revelation 9:1, there is a mention of Satan falling from heaven, but this is more of a narrative illustrating how earthly powers, in any manifestation, will always be cast into perdition.

Water is the symbol of life, truth and the Sophia (Σοφíα, Greek for “wisdom”). Let there be light and let it be said that “The 
way to heaven is through water.”
In almost all religions you will find that Water cleanses and is the purifier, in which faiths that incorporate ritual washing (ablution) that is used to baptize, sanctify and bless, include Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism, Rastafari movement, Shinto, Taoism, and Wicca. In the religion of the Buddhist, water symbolizes purity, clarity and calmness. In the Taoist traditions, water is said to point us to the Way and is considered a symbol or a pointer to the Tao (or Spirit/God). Taoism‘s two major branches, the Fire (yang) and Water (yin) are methods in which an absence of water is dryness, the way of death. These same teachings of the Taoist can also be compared to the Christian version of the absence of water, where St John had called this in Revelation “a fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”
As Lao Tzu says:.
The highest good is like that of water
The goodness of water is that it benefits the ten thousand creatures,
Yet itself does not scramble for attention,
But is content with places that men disdain.
It is this that makes water so near to the Way.
To the Ancient Egyptians, the secrets of heaven and water were symbolized by the God Osiris who we can consider a God of water. Plutarch had said, “they held the Nile to be the parent and savior of Egypt, and an emanation from Osiris,” and Eusebius had written that “Osiris was the Nile, which the Egyptians supposed to flow down from heaven.” They had represented Osiris as water or a type of the element of moisture, whose symbol we find in the vase full of water in which it appears they had used in all ceremonies. To the Egyptians, water was regarded as the great genial principle of all nature, calling forth and cherishing the fruits of the earth. (The picture to the right is of Ramesses III during a ritual in which he pours water from the vessel. Ramesses III was often depicted as the god Osiris.)
The Christians had also symbolized water as the way, with such biblical passages as Genesis 1:20 where we are told that the first mention of life comes from water, “Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life,” and “The earth was formed out of water and by water” (NIV). Many other passages also allude to heaven being through the water and in drinking of the “water of life,” or the “fountains of living water,” and of ” the stream of the water of life proceeding out of the throne of the Eternal.” Then in John 3:5, Jesus tells us the cold hard truth – Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.
In the Qur’an it is stated that “Living things are made of water” and it is often used to describe paradise. In many religions such as Islam and Judaism, a ritual bath in pure water is performed for the dead. In Islam, the five daily prayers can be done in most cases after completing washing certain parts of the body using clean water (wudu), unless water is unavailable (see Tayammum).
Many P. Hall had said of the Universal Brotherhood; “Some are the Sons of Water — the keepers of flocks; others are Sons of Fire — the builders of cities. One group is conservative; the other is progressive. One is the king; the other the priest.”
This same principle that Hall speaks of is also found in Taoism, with the water taoists (yin) who are peaceful and reserved in comparison to their fiery cousins (yang), the Fire Taoists. In the original Taoist texts, wu wei is often associated with water and its yielding nature. Although water is soft and weak, it has the capacity to erode even solid rock. Wu wei literally means non-action or non-doing by living wholly in harmony with the Tao in order to behave in a completely natural, uncontrived way.
The Eastern Orthodox Church and the Byzantine Empire icons almost always represent Sophia with wings, and at times with a garment of fish scales which points to Her relationship to water. In European legends and folklore, Sophia is represented by the Melusine (or Melusina) which is representative of a feminine spirit of fresh waters in sacred springs and rivers.
The Tribe of Levi and their Levite priests had used the water vase as our symbol to represent the divine spirit that flows through us. It reminds us, that in order to access this unique place within, we must wash, cleanse and purify our thoughts, actions, habits and life daily as we do washing our hands and feet. In doing so we purify our minds, bodies and souls. 
Moses the high priest was also Levite, and his name literally in Hebrew means “to draw out of the water.” In Exodus 30:18 we find that Moses was to make a laver of brass and put water in it, which was to be situated between the Tabernacle and the altar for the priests to wash their hands and feet, so when they went into the Tabernacle “that they die not”. Hence, they needed to be purified alchemically and this which is done through the water within our DNA.
This is not done by just the act of using water to cleanse or purify, but an actual scientific and internal alchemical process a
person must undergo to reach that place of eternal peace and love, that some of us call heaven, illumination, enlightenment or simple human bliss. A mental state of emotion where we become one with nature, our fellow man and love all God’s creatures. This is witnessed to us by St. John the Evangelist who said, “Little children, love one another.” Through this unconditional love is where we find peace and wisdom in which we then can change our complete alchemical make-up (internal human chemistry) in order to lead us to the water, that some of us call heaven and away from the lake of fire and sulfur, or what some may call hell.
A state of mind and being, where those of you who hate and are angry find alchemical hell in the sulfur within your very chemical make up that makes you, you that then multiplies by the billions like a virus with each evil thought. But those of you who do not partake in the hate and anger, by practicing the most ancient art on earth of love, acceptance and happiness, will find alchemical heaven through the water which resides in their very DNA.

If you are looking for heaven, I will help lead you to the promise land, and I swear that you won’t even have to sell your soul 
to the devil or buy my e-book in order to get there. In fact, the only thing that it will cost you in this lifetime is some incredibly hard work on THYSELF. You will need to refine and purify your thoughts, actions, life and chemical make up within, up until your very last breathe when you depart from your physical body. In fact, once you become knowledgeable of thyself, in which everything is energy ruled by cause and effect; you will find that it is much easier to get to hell than it is to get to heaven in this world that is obviously ruled by Satan, the Goddess of Hell and their minions.
The Ancient Egyptian Proverb reads, “The kingdom of heaven is within you, and whosoever shall know himself shall find it.” French master occultist Elphias Levi had said, “Man is himself the creator of his heaven or hell, and there are no demons except his own follies,” and 33rd Degree Freemason and Master Rosicrucian Manly P. Hall had written on heaven and hell; “In truth, the kingdom of heaven is within man far more completely than he realizes; and as heaven is in his own nature, so earth and hell are also in his constitution, for the superior worlds circumscribe and include the inferior nature of heaven.” (Mystery of Fire pg 198)
If you are wondering, “Where is heaven?”, the first thing that you need to do is heed the advice of the Ancient Egyptians and the two Masters of Truth and the Light that I have quoted above. We humans get to heaven via our own thoughts, actions and lives, in which we either create angels and demons or heavens and hells. Angels and demons (thoughts and actions), or what some people may call Archons that cause change in our very chemical make up and DNA, and that are simply found within our own natures. A life and afterlife that is either a heaven or hell simply due to cause and effect of our own thoughts and actions. Hence, what you reap, you shall sow my friend in Gnosis, and please NEVER forget this simple heavenly rule.
Can I go to heaven if I’m a bad person and commit evil acts; is there a prayer I can say or can I become a Born Again Christian?
It is paramount that you understand that there will be no Christian saviors or magical prayers that will create a cheap shortcut to heaven for those of you out there, who are nothing more than little demon men or women that have committed nothing more than hellish acts in this lifetime. There are no preachers or prayers in the universe that will help you negate this golden rule and age-old human alchemical process. You also will certainly not find heaven simply by becoming a Born Again Christian without doing the necessary alchemical work from within to refine and purify yourself in every humanly and spiritually way possible. In addition, there is no need for another Catholic Inquisition by burning your evil ass on the stake for being the spawn of the allegorical devil, when you are already slowly burning yourself with your own internal torch via the Lake of Fire and Brimstone (sulfur).
Many profane people foolishly think that the Christian bible is based on pure fiction, pseudo history and or plain old lies. The truth of the scientific matter is that they couldn’t be farther from the light and truth, so help them Lord. If we look for the light in the bible with an open mind and heart, by disregarding the scandals of the Church or some of its teachings you may not agree with, you will be led to the truth and quite possibly, the promise land.
The Bible with the Books of Genesis to Revelation is a written history, or should I say a docudrama of the world and the peoples who have ruled it for the last 5,000-6,000 years. In addition to the history that can be found in the bible, it also contains astrology that is combined with theology to create what is called astrotheology. However, there is also another little known, very important fact, that many writings in the New Testament are centered around esoteric Gnosis or Gnosticism and even alchemy. It is in the bible where this concept of heaven and hell became so popularized, and that which is actually encoded with esoteric scientific teachings that can help us all learn about life, death and also the afterlife.
An example of these Gnostic and alchemical teachings can be found in the passage from John 3:5 – Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.
There is an encrypted message here for those with an eye to see. St John is clearly informing us that the way to heaven is through “Water and spirit.” He also gives us the big clue “Very truly” which is an important part of the biblical puzzle. It is through truth, love and harmony with nature that we become wise, for it is said in 1 Corinthians 12:8 – For to one is given through the Spirit the utterance of wisdom, and to another the utterance of knowledge according to the same Spirit, Wisdom. It is this wisdom attained through Gnosis or knowledge that helps us evolve as humans and also creates a type of heaven on earth; for it is said in Proverbs 2:10-11 – for wisdom will come into your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul; discretion will watch over you, understanding will guard you.
Remember Truth, Water and Spirit. Hence, living life right is somewhat of a science, and if you would like to enter the kingdom of God, Heaven, or whatever you want to call it, then you must understand this science and also apply it to your life to the best of your abilities. If you are interested in truth and how the world truly operates like myself, then we all must begin our studies into the hidden and mystical realms of the universe. This research is often into a world that we cannot see with our own two eyes, but it does have elements that we can see, and science has now given us truth seekers, Gnostics and adepts the tools we can now use to help prove what were once theories or bible tales as scientific facts.
In Part II in this series of heavenly creations, I will go into the alchemical process within, that helps us justify the science and concept of heaven.

“Esoterically, the Hanged Man is the human spirit which is suspended from heaven by a single thread. Wisdom, not death, is 
the reward for this voluntary sacrifice during which the human soul, suspended above the world of illusion, and meditating upon its unreality, is rewarded by the achievement of self-realization.” – Manly P. Hall, The Secret Teachings of All Ages
In the Tarot with the twelfth (12th) card called ‘The Hanged Man”or in French, “Le Pendu.” The Hanged Man (XII) is the twelfth trump or Major Arcana card in most traditional Tarot decks.
This card portrays a young man hanging upside down by his left leg from a horizontal beam, the latter supported by two tree trunks from each of which six branches have been removed. The right leg of the youth is crossed in back of the left and his arms are folded behind his back in such a way as to form a cross surmounting a downward pointing triangle. According to Elphias Levi, the Hanged Man thus forms an inverted symbol of sulphur.
Elphias Levi had stated in his book, Transcendental Magic; ” It is also implied fantastically that the Roman alphabet is related to Tarot cards, but whereas the Hebrew Mem answers to the card of Death the Roman M is referred to the Hanged Man, Resh to the Judgement card but R to the Blazing Star.” Levi likens the hanged man to the legend of Prometheus, the titan who gave fire to mankind and in turn suffered the wrath of Zeus by becoming the eternal sufferer, not just by being bound to a rock, but to also have his liver fed upon by an eagle each day.
