3 - No crossposting or advertisements
We do not permit the crossposting from other subreddits, nor do we permit advertisements without the approval of the moderation team. Either behavior will result in a ban.
4 - Dogma
We have a low tolerance towards any form of dogma whether this is fear-mongering or shunning Practices purely due to them not aligning with your own Beliefs/Morals/Principles/Opinions, etc. This rule includes any level of gatekeeping being forbidden. As such questions that would require answers to gatekeep may also be removed under this rule (example - "Am I allowed to do X?"). Answering as a spirit and attempting to change someone else's practice also falls under this rule.
5 - Low quality posts

Offering free readings is often weaponized as a strategy to sell services and scam people, so for safety's sake all posts offering free readings will be removed.
7 - No trying to raise money here
This is not the place to post your kickstarters and go-fund-me's. We're an anonymous forum, moderators can not verify that you are who you are and that money will go where you say it will. Furthermore this really shouldn't devolve into being a space for begging.
Posts trying to skirt the rule by posting about their situation and insinuating that you need to DM the OP to help will still be removed under this rule.
8 - Do not share identifiable information about yourself or others
Do not give out your name, or address, or similar information. Don't post identifiable information about other people here, including their images, names, addresses, phone numbers and similar.

My brain goes a million miles an hour and I have ADHD and Bipolar II. Years of drug abuse have not helped my case. Many people complain about how I don’t listen to them. They feel like I don’t care. I’ve tried for years and same complaints. I need more help, this is a cry for help. I need to remember more
Non practitioner here, just curious on the topic.
I have read on the topic of demonology and demonolatry for years. After multiple forums, books, etc.; the subject of summoning on behalf of someone is rarely addressed.
Outside of the Etsy/Witch site offerings; Is it possible to summon a demon on behalf of another person?
thanks
So i got into demonoltry one year ago but i haven’t really do anything except altars for lord lucifer and king asmodeus, how do i actually ‘work’ with a demon and should it be focused on a specific thing you need or want?, do i need to give offerings only after invoking or just on a daily basis?, also i can’t find good information about demon pacts/contracts, any book recommendations?, i’m not native English speaker and get confused so when people talk about meditating with demons i don’t quite understand how or where to start or if it should be with one at the time and other things, i don’t know which book to trust or read for the start either
If you want to fool around, this is the weekly sign of "go ahead!". To keep the rest of the subreddit clean, we are giving everyone a thread to post memes in instead. It is this thread. Go crazy (try to limit it to memes that at the very least have occult undertones. Bonus points if they have anything to do with LHP or demonolatry)!
I was praying for Beelzebub while in bed, it was all dark in my room, eyes closed (I’ve never had any contact with any entity before)… after the pray, I focused on trying to send good energy for my boyfriend to sleep better tonight and suddenly I envisioned a small purple ball which started growing and became something abstract but shining. I opened my eyes and I was still seeing the “thing” for several seconds…
What just happened?
i’m tired of having to pull up wikipedia or something to figure out who the ideal demon to ask for help from is, there’s too many words and it’s annoying. are there like, flash cards or something i can get to check through?
I was reading a very detailed and interesting post here about one’s journey from Christianity all the way through many different paths until discovering Leviathan. During this period they mentioned instances like random people saying to them “God wants you” impromptu and out of left field.
I thought this was interesting. I am very, very new to this whole path, but I have noticed it happen too. Offhand comments of “Jesus loves you” by folk around for no particular reason nor purpose. This is not the most unusual thing in the world, because proselytism is a massive part of that religion, but it’s so odd when it happens and I had not had a single instance of it before attempting to contact an infernal.
I was once a very hardline Christian. A series of events and deep self reflection have led me here, I feel something authentic with it. I’m just curious if anyone else, particularly those who used to be religious, have had these weird attempts by their old masters to “rope them back in” to speak.
I made a pact with azazel after someone hexed me that I would dedicate my life to him as a patron in exchange for protection (I understand it was reckless) I was very inexperienced at the time but panicked and desperate I don’t know if an imposter spirit was present instead or if Azazel just didn’t like the agreement but shortly after I started to experience spiritual attacks and it has escalated to the point where I cannot get high or trip without being attacked by a specific energy at some point in the experience. I can sense that he (or whatever it is) is angered and does not like me. I have worked with azazel or whatever this is quite extensively over the past two years many blood and hair offerings and I was wondering if there is any way at all to break or detach this entity from myself. I don’t want to go to Christian practices for help but it’s started to affect the people I live with and their lives and I can’t do this anymore
In my case, sometimes there are things that I undeniably recognize as not coming from me and they come without difficulty, other times after thinking about it a little and using my intuition I know that they were not mine.
I have a super active mind, meditation helps me quiet it when I need to in order to communicate with spirits, although sometimes it remains silent 80% of 100% and because of that 20% I doubt if it's really mine or theirs.
Other times the information comes to me while I am not meditating and instead doing things in my daily life, that is when it's even more difficult for me to identify it.
And sometimes there is a situation where even my intuition is not sure.
How do you identify your thoughts from what the spirits are telling you? Any advice?
Hi all,
I am looking at my interpretation of spirit work. Individual, work with others, and Deity work.
As far as Deity work, it is still new to me and I am still establishing my relation(s).
I am trying to have a greater understanding so I can advance my practice.
I wanted this to be an open ended discussion with you all about what you believe to be true and how this all fits together in speculation.
TLDR; at bottom

Differences in practice:
Like many religions, theyre often different, having their own practice, and theory for life.
Spirituality is typically specific to the individual, which to me is much more personal and preferred. - We can delineate our own depictions.
Alot of modalities often try to explain existence that in of itself through their structured beliefs. It seems we have been doing this since the start. - I have spent a considerable amount of time deconstructing/constructing beliefs.
But there are others such as Carl Jung and his interpretation of the collective unconsciousness and how we are all connected. Which I find fascinating and more modern.
Looking at things such as the Human Psyche, Shadow work, general psychology and the inner mechanisms of our mind.
--
Internal vs External experiences:
I often think of our five senses
(Sight, Smell, Hearing, Touch, Taste)
or the psychic clairs
(Clairvoyance, Clairaudience, Clairsentience, Claircognizance, Clairalience, Clairgustance, Clairvoyance)
in how we interpret messages or interact with the world. We all have experiences both internal and external as we interface. So its hard to imagine that all is in one or the other. But perhaps both?
--
Ways to describe working with Gods/Goddesses/Demons/Daemons:
Is working with Gods/Goddesses/Demons/Daemons
seen as individual parts of the source we are all connected to? - As if we are all unique but part of one whole. One could ascribe Gods/Goddesses a like as parts of this large pool. - External from us but also a part of us. Energetic/Formless
The other thing that I have been pondering is if we can describe this as all mental. And you could ascribe Gods/Goddesses as archetypes of our own psyche. Maybe this is just another way to describe the above scenario. - internal part of us//maybe mental that we are all connected to
-to me I feel like this tough to get an accurate description for as I have experienced both internal and external spiritual influences/experiences.
--
Purpose:
What is your purpose in working with your spirituality? Simple things(said loosely) such as Growth or Transformation, looking for greater connection or enlightenment with Source/Divine?
TLDR;
How do you interpret spirituality/ spirit work? -- Internal vs External
What spiritual purpose are you in pursuit of?
Cheers,
Z
I have to give public praise to Agares! He helped me reconnect with somebody and ease our path to open communication. I’m just so grateful for his help. I hope to continue to work with him, and I just want to sing his praises publicly.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Hello friends- I have felt the calling of Prince Orobas for awhile now, and after reading and researching, I decided it's time to contact him. This past week I've been doing light meditation, asking for guidance in fields such as being known and seen, being just and truthful, etc. Tonight I set up a small gathering of things (vetiver candle, a gold crab figure, quartz and celestial) as they all felt right to me. I meditated to a lovely enn chanting video. I felt a chill at first, almost as if being tested, but I soon grew comfortable. Overall, it was a wonderful experience; I won't disclose most as it feels like it was an intimate moment for an introduction session. I pulled my tarot cards out and asked how our work today will look for the coming week, and WOW. The Sun!!! Absolutely spot on, including the horse on the card to top it off. I felt so seen in that moment and teared up a bit. I look forward to continuing my journey with Orobas. Hail!
I have been performing a Connective Evocation to connect with Duke Sallos. The practice entails entering a state of deep meditation (ideally trance) to communicate directly, in a conversational way, with your chosen demon. It was the first time I did this kind of ritual. It was evening and while I was establishing the actual connection I started to hear a bird singing outside my house which I never heard before. He kept going modulating a beautiful song. It was so beautiful and evocative that made me think that perhaps that was a preamble to my conversation with the demon. I read the demons don’t favour birds, seen as Angelic means of communication. Was that birdsong my own self-suggestion, the Shem Angel coming with Sollos or Sollos himself? I know he’s very gentle.
I think I got the communication part somewhat understood. I’ve noticed I’ve gotten a lot more epiphanies/random thoughts and I’m gonna keep working towards bettering that recognition but I’m curious as to how yall got into feeling a given demon/patron/entities energy? Like how to know when they show up/approach.
I’ve seen stuff like “rub your hands together really fast and hold your hands a cm apart and that’s energy” but to me that’s not energy that’s just body heat and friction :/ like of course your gonna feel something you just rubbed the crap outta your nerve endings lol.
I’ve seen some people say just focus on feeling your body like how your toes connect to your feet and your feet to your legs and just become aware of everything slowly working your way up, but that makes zero sense to me as well because when I think about things like out of body experiences it’s the complete opposite. Your energy is not your body. And when I was out of my body, I didn’t look like anything at all, no shape, no color, everything was blurry and time was like it was in super slow motion. I couldn’t move myself where I wanted to go, I was like a floating ball of consciousness. I couldn’t feel anything, hear anything and I could barely see at all. But it makes sense given you don’t have eyes lol, I’m not sure how people function during obe’s tbh.
Sorry this is getting a bit rambly, but I could really use some ideas here cause I’m at my wits end at the moment TvT
Is he a demon that protects the magician who summons him or does he not care who summons him? I'm thinking about summoning him but I'm a little afraid of the changes that may occur in my life. If anyone has already summoned him and can tell me what his personality is like, I would appreciate it.
I recently broke up with someone for being promiscuous while high on drugs(very often) despite wanting to commit. Needless to say that this caused me a great deal of pain because mixed with it all there were many manipulative behaviours towards me and others which deeply hurt me and devastated me. Now, I have just started practicing magick and I find myself torn between vengeful acts and taking him back and work on the issues. How do demons respond to conflictual stances on the same target? Does anyone have any direct experience? I worked with Sallos but also Glasya Labolas. Also, when working with Sallos can I skip the reconciliation bit and speak as if we are back together already or do you address intermediate phases? I need inputs & feedbacks 🙏
Well, it seems that I did have the dream (context: https://www.reddit.com/r/DemonolatryPractices/s/YjjTCcmT7U)
Last night I had a very hard time falling asleep and I thought it wasn't going to happen, but almost in the morning I entered a lucid dream, I began to let the images in front of me flow and I ended up there. I'll make a summary because it's very long.
For some reason I was on an island with my cousin, we lived there, I mean it was a town on an island and apparently in the whole world there were only islands... Anyway, as I said in the other post I asked the deity to come to my dream, and immediately upon being there I could feel that he was present, but he was on another island, yet his presence was felt everywhere as if he had dominion over the entire place. (I felt his presence like the wind and the intensity of the tide so every time I mention that you know what I'm talking about.)
At first the water of the coast was very calm, there was a light breeze and a it was raining really slightly but there was no need to worry, I was going to see him on the island where he was and my cousin went with me.
On our way to meet him, we passed by another island, we stayed there for a while. On this island the people were incredibly poor, the place was almost flooded and the wooden houses were rotting and falling apart, and yet a child welcomed us, he was very kind to us and gave us things for the trip, then we stayed a while longer there with those people and seeing the living conditions they were in, they were really poor but still very happy and kind, and there were lots of dogs and cats in the place... Suddenly one of the inhabitants warned that a distant storm was coming, the place quickly began to flood, my cousin and I quickly went to one of the coasts of the island to leave there.
Upon reaching the coast, it turns out that this part of the island was apparently wealthy, it was a port and there was a lot of movement and people coming and going, But at this moment everyone was a little worried because due to the storm the ships were not going to be able to set sail, people were rushing to board quickly and leave as soon as possible.
While my cousin was looking for a contact who could take us to our final destination, I saw this guy arrive, he is one of my exes from almost five years ago with whom I have not yet closed the chapter... yeah it sucks... The worst thing is that I went to hug him and say hello, and he decided to stay and chat. The wind got stronger and the water off the coast became more turbulent, and my cousin meanwhile waited for the person who was going to take us to arrive.
When the person finally arrived (in a small boat for two passengers) me and my cousin went to board and my ex wanted to follow us and go with us, at that moment the presence of this deity was felt stronger than ever, the wind and the water were very aggressive, when we wanted to board and I wanted to take my ex with us I woke up... I think he really wants me to finally actually forget my ex, I felt like he said " girl you AREN'T taking him with you"
Well that really sucks, and as much as I tried I couldn't go back to sleep, man I was about to see this deity face to face and... Well... Yeah, I have to start forgetting this guy, It's not the first time that he is in a dream in which that deity is also present and doesn't seem to like it.
I have been working with a demon recently, and as an offering I offered to build him an altar in the mountains next to my house. I made the request some time ago but it has now been fulfilled and I have a problem regarding my promise. For several weeks now we have been experiencing heavy rains and the altar will not last, as it will be washed away. For this reason I have thought of building it in my house and this way it will be protected from the wind and the rains (I think it is somewhat disrespectful to the demon to build the altar in a place where I know it will be damaged), although I will have to be discreet so that my family does not see it.
Do you think this would be considered completing my promise? Sorry if the question is stupid, I'm kind of new at this yet.
I slept with sitri sigil a while back and had two dreams In the same night about my cousin who is no longer with us anymore who just died and the dreams were not bad but they were comforting and one of them we were moving his bed. I want to know is it just a dream or is it sitri cause I read somewhere that his connected to the dead and his also connected to SET
I'm new here so I'm sorry if this is a very naive question. I'm looking for guides or reading material for better understanding of the practices and working with specific deities.
Hello. I want to approach this with as much respect as I possibly can. I was born and raised in the mormon church and I left the church quite some time ago and I have been seeking to unlearn every single falsehood I was brainwashed into believing as a child. I have learned a lot over the years but one thing that I have become curious about recently is how the church portrayed Lucifer/Satan. Is he truly an evil being who wants man kind to suffer? Or is that just more BS fed to me? Are Lucifer and Satan the same being or different ones altogether? I want to know what he’s really like. I have tried googling but I have the internet research skills of an eighty year old man. Is there any reading material any one of you could recommend? Or maybe some personal witnesses anyone might be willing to share? If not I totally understand. This sort of thing could be very personal and I’m trying my best to be polite and willing to learn.
Do you have some experiences with this great Spirit?
1)Are altars good for introducing to them? (Spirits) Or deeper conection with Spirit?
