Above: Sigil of Characith from Liber 231 on KeepSilence.Org


Characith is an archdemon of the Tunnels of Set (the paths between the Qliphothic spheres) who can impart great magickal development to the witch. She manifested to me as female-- a succubitic protectress of the Black Lodge who endeavors the furtherance of the demon magick in the West. She can help the witch dominate and control forces which prevent evolution and impart might, blessings, ecstasy, supremacy, and protection unto her.

Characith can start, cultivate, and control the development of wars. Her original sigil, as channeled by Aleister Crowley in Liber 231, depicts a camel-headed entity issuing forth from the feet of a downward-facing mummy. The death of that which is old, insofar as this phenomenon describes an evolutionary/alchemical process, is under the domain of this archdemoness. She rules the power of obsession-- especially sexual obsession.

Characith has aptitudes in candle magick, object enchantment, crystal magick, lunar magick, necromancy, and hydromancy. Her teachings and auspices are apt for bone divination as well as skrying (especially with a crystal ball but also with a black mirror). She teaches charm magick and imparts gnosis of various mysteries of demon magick.

Characith can strengthen the witch's personal magnetism and vampyric powers, and she can help the witch self-initiate through the elements of fire, water, and earth. She can help the witch self-initiate through Qamar, which is the Planetary Sphere of the Moon which Qabbalists self-initiate through via the Sephira called Yesod.

Characith can enchant vehicles and prevent the entry of certain things into a building or house. Her auspices and teachings are useful in shielding and warding. She'll be quite helpful for any matters concerning a haunted house or location-- she is particularly useful for such matters. She also presides over mind tricks, glamours, bewitchment, and the evil eye.

Characith can help the witch understand/learn about demonology, mythology, theology, scripture, cosmology, astrology, and astronomy. She's a matron of astral travel, astral shapeshifting, spoken spell craft, invisibility, and atavism. She can impart bravery, aggression, courage, and bravery to the witch and divest her of risk-aversion and submissiveness. She can protect the witch and teach her to manipulate memory and alter the past.

Characith rules the Qliphothic tunnel branching from Satariel (Saturn/Lucifugus Rofocalus) to Golachab (Mars/Asmoday). This is the eighteenth pathway and its Zodiac sign is Cancer. Herein dwell a demonic collective/demonic species known as the Shichiriron, which name translates to "Black Ones." This tunnel can be visited via astral projection and meditation journey alike, and the witch can call its energies into her for magickal self-transformation. According to The Shadow Tarot by Linda Falorio:

The need to work with the energies of Characith is signaled by the experience of feelings of abhorrence at the basic formula of this planet— that life must feed upon life. This may manifest as intolerance, and refusal to take responsibility for our base animal instincts and their inevitable outcomes, as well as unrepressed horror at alien life forms and their "noxious" feeding habits, and displeasure at sea-tastes and the smells of vital sexual fluids, with implied disregard for the feminine element in nature, and in oneself.

Linda Falorio describes this pathway as follows:

The entrance to the tunnel of Characith is the Graal, the yoni, the soft pink flesh of the Mother who herein distills her hell-broth of ecstasy and magickal immortality. Shadowed within is a symbol of the God Set, evidence of the identity of the phallus with kteis, of corpora cavernosa/clitoris with prostatic glands/prostate (cf. "Eve's Secrets: A New Theory of Female Sexuality"). The Ophidian Serpent curls upon the sigil, extending forked tongue to a shimmering drop of the elixir of immortality which has been distilled into the Cup.


Vampires are created of those who linger here to drink, for they too easily become addicted to the pleasures of the pursuance of their dark desires. Draining life to sustain their energy and life beyond its ordinary span, they acquire the power of bewitchment, casting strange enchantments to lure fresh victims to their astral touch. The vampire's fangs have thus become dread dentata embedded in the luscious touch of pink.


The two red suns represent "the two suns of the upper and lower horizon,@ even as they appear to be the puncture wounds inflicted by the vampire's abominable nightly habits. Symbolic of the reddened moon, Moon of Blood, Black Sun of Tiphareth drinking the blood of the Goddess, they too are linked with the Magick of the XIo. Subliminal reminders, they engender nostalgia for a long lost planet far beyond our world where there are two moons.


Falorio continues:


Powers associated with working this tunnel are the abilities to take what one wants, to satisfy one's needs, to ensure survival at any and all costs. Here may be found boundless energy, creativity, and eternal youth. Working here bestows personal magnetism; there is a fatal sexual attraction which may be turned on as one will choose. Here is the enviable ability to live in the moment, to accept all manifestations of existence as bliss, and lose oneself in mindful ecstasy.

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
