Qliphothic Wor(L)ds by Cort Williams: A Book Review

Qliphothic Wor(L)ds is a treatise on Black Magickal Alchemy, Luciferian Philosophy, Anti-Cosmic Theory, and Qliphothic Demonology succinctly conveyed in a manner most approachable to those lacking in knowledge of Qabbalah. Cort William's strong grasp of Gematria, Qabbalah, and the Typhonian Tradition form the backbone of the knowledge presented therein.

The book opens with a series of desultory memoirs on the subjects mentioned above and proceeds to delve into the archdemons which reside within the Tunnels of Set. The traditional Qabbalistic correspondences of each demon are presented simply through a Luciferian Anti-Cosmic lens describing the connotations of various Hebrew letters, numbers, tarot cards, zodiac signs, Gematrial values, planets, and Qliphothic spheres. The segment exploring the Tunnels of Set is a treatise on the theory of Khaos-Gnostic Qabbalah. Little to no experience with or rituals to the demons appear in the text.

The mythos of Qayin, Tubal-Qayin, and Azazel are explored satisfactorily. The draconic aspects of Satan are analyzed numerologically and the Dukes and Kings of Edom are defined and contemplated in their basic connotations.

There is a brief contemplation of Lovecraftian magick which inconclusively speculates about parallels between it and Qliphothic sorcery. This entry is under-researched and under-contemplated, as there is abundant evidence available to the student that Lovecraftian magick is Satanic, Left-Handed, and Adversarial, and that the Necronomiconic Rites of Gate-Walking are Qliphothic in nature.

The text briefly delineates the aesthetic and praxis of the Order of the Ebon Spire and the philosophy of Titanic Satanism. The Qliphothic spheres Nahemoth (Black Earth/Nahema), Gamaliel (Black Moon/Lilith), Golohab (Mars/Asmodeus), and Gashkelah (Jupiter/Astaroth) are delineated in detail which exceeds most treatises on them.

Qliphothic Wor(L)ds is a very informative and helpful treatise on Anti-Cosmic Satanism which is approachable to persons who do not know much about it. While I must specify that the text contains no rituals and no magickal chants, the book is a must-read for those dedicated to Anti-Cosmic Satanism and Qliphothic Qabbalah. For those for whom these subjects are mere adjuncts to their paths, this text is helpful, but not not a must-read.

I am Leaving the Order of the Nine Angles

I would challenge a person who keeps tabs on the Satanic community to name a black magickal order besides the ONA which regularly expresses scorn for its own adherents. I unable to, and I'm told I know my shit. The most prominent example of the way that the ONA eats itself is the hoax created by Kerry Smith, an "OG" Niner (i.e. founding member) who falsely claimed that the ONA's founder was dead. A few ONA writers, myself included, disputed the claim, but the majority of the ONA accepted the report as accurate. After David Myatt himself resurfaced to refute the claim, Kerry Smith conceded her position. She then explained that hoax was conducted with the intent to publicly prove that the majority of the Order of the Nine Angles would believe anything they were told by an established ONA writer. But Smith is not the only one member of the ONA who holds contempt for the ONA as a near whole. Chloe has largely become known for going on similar tirades, variously portraying

The Ten Spheres of the Qliphoth

Image
This article, which I will be updating as time and increases of knowledge permit and cause, describes the structure of the Qliphoth and the evolutions engendered by an active and long-term initiation calling on it. The Qliphothic Spheres are believed by the White Lodge to represent unbalanced and disorganized reflections of the initiatory forces which are entreated through the Sephiroth. In truth, the Qliphothic Sphere of Jupiter introduces the magickain to the same initiatory force as its corresponding Sephira. The path to enlightenment through demon magick is harder and far more powerful route. Our initiators are not imbalanced; this misconception stems from the manifold plights of those initiates who could not handle the darker path. We acknowledge that the praxis of the White Lodge engenders great awakening, and we await the day they awaken enough to see that we chose the right path for us. If the witch is guided to do so, she may self-initiate through a Qliphothic Sphere or Path w

Introduction to Qliphothic Self-Initiation

Image
I now have rites of initiation for all 10 Qliphothic spheres, all 22 Tunnels of Set, and the 4 hidden Tunnels of Set, and all of them are to be found in the Qliphothic Self-Initiation category of my website. So, where do you start? If the idea of Qliphothic sphereworkings is new to you, read these: https://vkjehannum.wordpress.com/2017/12/04/the-ten-spheres-of-the-qliphoth/ https://vkjehannum.wordpress.com/2017/11/02/a-demonolaters-take-on-the-qliphoth/ If you would like to pursue Qliphothic self-initiation in the future but think you should be more experienced before you try it, I have good news. The spirits, energies, power, etc. of every Qliphothic sphere can be called upon without engendering a sphere initiation. The more you work with these spheres, the more accessible they will be when you do pursue sphere initiations. I have advised black magickal neophytes to recite one of my magickal hymns to the Infernal Divine with the intent of self-empowerment so as to develop an energetic
