TERRIFYING!!!! 😱😱😱

When appearing, he looks fierce in order to frighten the conjurer or to see if they are courageous. The conjurer must be brave, and hazel wand in hand, must draw a triangle by striking towards the south, east, and upwards, then commanding Beleth into it by means of some conjurations.

      West European cringe Christian cat hate, that is. To my understanding the eastern (Orthodox) Christians for all their faults, revered cats as all sensible and civilized peoples who knew of cats did.

      I mean what would you do if a giant confirmed predator of humans was trumpeting a song?

      If I was face to knee with cthulhu I'd probably start beatboxing.

    I miss the old days when demons would have like a whole dude's head for their groin. Now demons are all the same - balrog or horny girl balrog

        There's a whole thing with owls being spooky. One of athena's symbols is the owl, which is funny because they're canonically dumber than paint (no offense). I think in Latin or Italian owls are called "Strix" or something like that which is related to "striga" and a whole bunch of other words for wishes.

        And then in north America there's a couple of indigenous cultures that have some kind of beef with owls but I don't recall the details.

    then commanding Beleth into it by means of some conjurations.

    My apologies to the Goëtians, but I'll never understand the human desire for "commanding" entities, "giving orders" to them as if humans were "superior" to them. We aren't. I mean, they're cosmic forces, predating humanity, how's a mere human being supposedly "capable" of suppressing the force of a cosmic force? Maybe it's because I'm a demonolater and I see entities (especially Lilith) as infinitely superior to anything mundane. When I do a ritual, it's for worshipping the entity, for delivering my own essence to them (to Her), not for "giving orders" or "command" them, because I'd be certainly crushed by them way before I could ever think of controlling them. It's a matter of being spiritually humble. I'm a Lilith worshipper, and I can't even think of giving Her any order: it's the exact opposite, She'd give me orders for me to follow, She's way stronger than me.

      Guns? Iron? Salt? Do you want an exhaustive list I have one somewhere. Silver, aluminum probably would work if anyone thought to try it, dogs obviously, rosewater, waving your vagina at the devil is pretty reliable, various roosters, red and white strings in assorted configurations, sandalwood, fire, turning around three times. I could go on for quite a while if you give me some time to dig out some old books.

      The main practical utility is pranking your neighbors and, I shit you not, per the Hammer of the Witches, stealing pies.

      heh. Check out this liberal who thinks a personification of the human faults of hedonism and stubbornness are a power stronger than them and willing gives their life to those impulses claiming that they are an outside force.

      Lilith is a demon of independence to a fault and you grovel at her like an abused dog. That is hilarious. You would disgust her if she existed.
