I finally got it: the 200 “angels” from the second fall are actually the 200 Igigi that the Necronomicon talks about. The Igigi were Anunnaki working the mines on Mars. They fled those harsh conditions, came here and decided to take human wives and live with humanity - i.e. fall. On Earth they became known as The Watchers. One of them Azazel, aka Shamaz, got known for teaching humanity things like metal working, magick, warfare and cosmetics.
More context below.
The Anunnaki were the Elohim of the Old testament. You have to keep in mind that people at the time thought they were angels. This is also what The Naked Bible finds.
We should assume that most known gods and goddesses are actually Anunnaki also called Elohim. In the Egyptian pantheon (Neteru) Enki was Ptah and Marduk was Ra, for example. They lived and were worshipped under different names in various cultures throughout history during their long lives. The long lived early biblical characters like Metusaleh and Enoch were probably human hybrids that had inadvertenly got the Anunnaki longevity gene.
The Nephilim were failed genetic experiments resulting in giants, as they upgraded us from Homo Erectus to Homo Sapiens using their own genes. This also explains the missing link - all the missing steps between Homo Erectus and Homo Sapiens - and why civilization all of a sudden arose. They needed their human slaves to be as self sustaining as possible to save them the effort.
Don’t forget that a lot of the known gods were pagan deities, and tended to represent forces of nature and spirits of place, some of them the Fae/Djinn, maybe from the days before ET contact.
For example, the Celtic goddess Brigid started as the personification of a specific well that people found healing, and evolved from there. Other gods were human leaders like kings, who became deified after their death.
Personally, I think the bad press on the nephilim is mostly propaganda, and the watchers were not igigi but they did try to teach humans skills after an apocalypse, of which the earth has many, in repeating patterns.
Many gods are absolutely egregors and pre-existing spirits and forces.
As I understand it Yahweh (the Anunnaki Enlil) unleashed the flood to get rid of the Nephilim and all humans that had inherited the longevity gene. Enki warned his son Ziusudra (Noah in the Bible) to build an ark, and Marduk took his people high up in the mountains, to survive the flood.
The Old ones were already here when the Anunnaki came to Earth, and were subsequently banished (except for Nyarlathotep), and I see them as the forefathers of the Djinn. The energies of The Old ones can be so strong it almost knocked me out.
That is the general thought, however, we know these floods happen every 6k years, and I think there was just one due that was attributed to him - but he doesn’t actually deserve any credit. That’s just humans being superstitious, as they tend to do. It was going to happen anyway, as is the current one due about now.
I’m sure that will get mythologized as some future god’s retribution for current events too, but that’s another story for the survivors.
And there may be ETs and prepared people standing by to help rebuild, and they will be the new watchers and get mythologized as well.
Myth contains seeds of history, but it’s so overblown and garbled it’s very hard to take too seriously.
I don’t think anything Lovecraft said was remotely real or sane and these are egregores around his fear of things he remote viewed in dreamwalking. I think Nyarlathotep is his personification of his fear of dissolution into the Tao, which he could not handle conceptually whatsoever. Azathoth is just the Tao that is named.
They can’t be the forefathers of the Djinn - the Djinn are the first people on the Earth, and I don’t see than as ETs coming from elsewhere. These are not of the Earth. You’d have to ask these groups though. Not sure why you’re make up myth of beings without talking to them first.
So you believe DJinn are some of the first beings on this earth that is interesting. I do to feel and sense they were other beings here way before Man as we know our selves to be know in this form and density ( species etc)
According to Islamic mythology, the djinn were not just the first beings on earth but the very first beings ever created. Made from smokeless fire, they came before the angels and before Man, but they ran amok due to their destructive nature, so God sent the angels to put them down.
HP Lovecraft’s books is the way the Old ones made their way back into our consciousness. They contacted HPL through his dreams and he then wrote them into his books.
According to Necronomicon, the Old ones were banished from Earth by the Anunnaki, all except their messenger Nyarlathotep who is still here.
Some of the Old ones, like Cthutulhu, are mentioned in Sumerian mythology as monsters created by Tiamat to help Kingu fight the Anunnaki. His name was spelled Kutulu there though.
Cthulhu is not in Summerian myth. Not sure where you got that from.
The old ones are H. p. Lovecraft’s fiction.
You can believe what you like but this is not even myth, it’s a modern story from a guy who has nightmares and didn’t understand any of them
Please do not preach by claiming fiction as fact. That is against the rules of this forum. And it’s basically role playing.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m a big fan of Lovecraft. But I like vampire fiction too I still recognize fiction and treat is as such. You can work with any egregores from fiction using chaos magick but that doesn’t make them part of reality for anyone but you and those who also use these egregores.
The Necronomicon from Lovecraft’s stories never existed - it was a fictional book.
The mad Arab was a fictional character that never existed in real life.
Multiple authors have riffed off of, or more or less followed, the idea to make fan art, but there is no actual Necronomicon written by Lovecraft or even Chambers or the other authors considered cannon in the Lovecraft fan community. Crowley played with the idea also.
The most popular Necronomicon - the Simon Necronomicon aka “Necronomicon by Simon”, has nothing to do with Lovecraft’s mythos and is all about Sumerian gods and the names of known god Marduk. These gods are not part of Lovecraft’s works - his gods are all of his own creation.
In my opinion, the best “Necronomicon” out there isn’t even called that - it’s the Black Book of Azathoth by S Ben Quayin, and was his effort to develop what the Necronomicon could have been, if it was actually a usable grimoire using the entities from the Lovecraftian mythos.
