I read through Michael Foods Beginning Luciferian Magick, and it is quite good. What I dont like however are the rites of blasphemy. As a (prior?) Christian, its hard to commit to the book.
Like I said, it is quite good, several interesting rituals, but again, what stops me is not wanting to blaspheme really, I dont see the point of it.
As a Christian who became disillusioned with God or felt abandoned, even after a deliverance, I again had the thought, well better make friends in the other place quickly, so back to magic I returned. While I muttered and even shouted at God, I believe he is still there. However, I still enjoy Candle Magic that utilizes Novenas, and I believe they are powerful. I have had results.
So, thoughts?
Pick any
system
and
commit.
Stop
asking
and
go
commit.
I recommend the angels of punishment. They are darker/lower frequency angels but are generally not considered demonic.

Well, I am working through Kaballah, Magic, and the Great Work of Self Transformation. After that I was going to try some of the rites in Beginning Luciferian Magic … except for the blasphemy thing.
I consider myself a Middle Hand Path Magician, and as such, will read and work each RHP and LHP “grimoire”.
This is the difficulty, belief and blasphemy. Yet I had both Lucifer and Belial on my mind this week.
But, will follow your advice and stick to a system, best I can, without being stone set LHP or stone set RHP. If its one or the other, I guess it would have to be LHP for redefinition on my terms and independence, and freedom.
Interesting, will try then. I have several things Ive wanted to do/try, but I have to stick to one at a time. Will add this to my amazon order.
Uriel is said to be one of them. The others are less known.

Nice, that fits in nicely after Christophers book.
I suppose I could (when done with the current suggestions and book Im using) work OAA Flame Discourses instead of Beginning Luciferian Magick. OAA will take me a while to work through, but would be worth it, Ive worked parts and reviewed the whole, and its solid.
Again, will commit to the current system being worked.
