I've become very much interested in the workings of E.A. Koetting. Say what you will, but many of his teachings have helped in my spiritual evolution and ascent. Especially in opening my mind up to the LHP (excluding baneful magic) and including tantric methods into my path. If you know of E.A. Koetting, you know that A LOT of his workings focus on Demons, or darker spirits, and building relationships with them as a means of progressing in our spiritual journeys. I have not attempted an evocation of a Demon yet (though I have had astral experiences with dark spirits), as I would like to some of your experiences with Demons. I'm far passed the "Demons are evil" lecture, as through my experiences and studies have found that Demons are not "evil" and the idea of them being evil is nothing but a product of Abrahamic propaganda. Yes, Demons want respect, but don't we all? Anyway, so what have some of your experiences been like? Have you successfully evoked? Have you successfully gotten them to complete tasks? What about Incubus and Succubus experiences?

Re: Let Talk Demons.
Hi, LeviImmortal.
It's nice to see another interested in such things. I am familiar with Koetting and his work, but I have no interest in nor affiliation with him, perhaps unfortunate for your query. I do, however, have extensive experience with Demons and LHP pursuits such as Qliphothic sorcery - however, I do not exclude "baneful magick" from my workings. I have written at length on the topics at hand, and am happy to share my experiences - although perhaps not in one post.
Originally posted by LeviImmortal View PostAnyway, so what have some of your experiences been like?
Far too many to describe to you in this space. If you would care for specifics, I am happy to oblige. To summarise - my experiences have ranged from terrifying to beautiful to transformative.
Originally posted by LeviImmortal View PostHave you successfully evoked?
As a Demonolator, "evocation" is a word that is not used amongst us for communion with Demons. Evocation implies the ritual summoning of a spirit in the style of Ceremonial Magicians which is regarded, within our practice, as a disrespectful act. Demons, within Demonolatry, are worked with in the same manner as any other Deity as that is what They are to us.
Originally posted by LeviImmortal View PostHave you successfully gotten them to complete tasks?
Having Them complete "tasks" is not the aim of my practice as They are Divinities. What you are describing is a typical practice amongst Ceremonialists and not amongst most LHP practitioners.
I have known of those who have legitimately attempted to evoke a Demon and "command" It with most unfortunate consequences. They can be worked with - but I would not recommend "evocation magick" as the method to employ.

Re: Let Talk Demons.
I'd love to hear about your experiences and knowledge, especially on Qliphothic sorcery. So as an analogy, the way you work your demonic Divinities are similar to so called prayer or similar to the tantric practices of Buddhism? Many of the people I've spoken to about Demons have also simply worked with Demons telepathically while using their sigil. Is this similar to your practice? And I don't suspect your succubus experience was frightening at all.

But I have successfully communicated with Demons and called upon them to help me with my workings. I have worked exclusively with Goetic Demons, along with a few cthonic deities who have been included in the modern Demonolatry pantheons. The Dukante pantheons don't resonate with me at all, however. The Demon who I work with the closest (and most often) is Barbatos, who helps me with my work with animals (in the physical sense) and with animal guides (in the spiritual sense). I have worked with several others, mostly for the purpose of curse breaking and protection. For me, working with Demons is very similar to working with any other deity. I approach Them with respect, make my request, offer my payment, and the bargain is struck.
Originally posted by LeviImmortal View PostHave you successfully gotten them to complete tasks?
Even the Christian magicians, who you could say pioneered working with the Goetic Demons, did not treat them as lesser entities who could be ordered around like servitors. There was a reason they were afraid of Demons and constructed such elaborate rituals in order to evoke them. There was also a reason that not just any old magician could expect to pick up the Lemegeton and successfully conjure up a Demon... that was advanced work only to be attempted after years of study and ritual practice. And even then only the highly skilled ones made it. The 'evil' of Demons was not just propaganda... it was a reputation earned via the swift and consistent retribution meted out to incompetent magicians and dabblers.

Re: Let Talk Demons.
One of these days, I may take time to investigate the motives of those Ceremonial magicians. If your theology says that
1) Demons are malevolent, evil bastards that will hurt you given half a chance
2) That you can call on more benevolent higher powers to keep them in line
then why the hell are you calling demons instead of just approaching the beings you use to keep them in line? Was there something really important that they couldn't get from angels/LoH?
Demonolatry on the whole is built on less silly logic at first glance.life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.

I'm pretty sure those were things that devout Christians should NOT have been seeking.

Re: Let Talk Demons.
Sooo....
they were calling on the LoH/his angels to compel other Powers to provide things that the LoH probably had no interest in seeing them get through sorcery....
I'd be less afraid that the demon will outwit me and more afraid that the LoH would help get them show up and then turn off all my defenses and walk away while the pissed off demon decides how to punish my impudence.life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness.

You're welcome to read through some of my work at your own leisure if you'd like. Regarding Qliphothic sorcery, I have been working primarily with only three Qliphoth for the past five years. The entirety of the work is for a lifetime. In essence, I choose to work with such forces as a means of bringing about a particular state of existence for myself - although I would normally reduce the concept to achieving "immortality" or "apotheosis", it's obviously not that simple as I believe that these terms describe the innate nature of many beings - thus, "becoming a God" is a moot point for me as it has already occurred and has always been the case. I use Qliphothic sorcery to ultimately determine a different direction for my "soul", as it were, and to affect my conscious, carnate abilities within this world and to affect the environment around me.
In regards to experiences, there is no simple way to describe working with the Qliphoth at all. During my immersions, I utilise excitative trance techniques - i.e. Shamanic journey - to facilitate my interactions with Them. I could go into great depth here with a description of Shamanic journeying in and of itself or I can "describe" what my immersions are like. Your choice, or something entirely different - I will share what I can.

The use of a Demon's sigil is a very common practice within Demonolatry. Some sigils are not recommended to be used, however. If you are at all familiar with the practices of the OFS, then you will likely know of the practice of burning a Demon's sigil to initiate contact or to make an offering. I do not practice this, but there are many who do so with success.
