First possible paranormal experience ever, what does it mean?

Hey guys so I'm posting about something that just happened to me now, a little background on me I've never had any paranormal/scary experiences before until today probably... Not sure if this is paranormal but I didn't find an explanation, so yesterday I asked my mom to clean some dryed candle wax off of the floor I was cleaning too but I couldn't bend down because of health issues, so she did just that and cleaned it all, today however I came into the living room and I found chunks and bits of it still on the floor I asked my mom why she didn't clean them well and she was confused saying that she did and we had this conversation while being in the living room and then I looked Infront of me and the small table that had the router on it was LITERALLY pushed to the right and was not in the usual place I didn't notice it moving at all although I was in the living room for over an hour until my mom came in anyway my mom got scared and immediately left the living room while I was weirded out trying to figure out what happened and how I didn't notice anything... Btw it was a green candle for duke dantalion I know he can be a little bit of a trickster but I was comfortable and thought that nothing paranormal would happen to me lol 😭😂

Do u have opinions on what that could be? Im just confused as to how I didn't hear/notice the table being moved out of place 😐🤔 and how did the candle wax come out of the trashcan on its own 🥲 lol

Question about Lilith

Someone in the pagan sub made a post about how worshipping Lilith or approaching her when you’re not a Jew is cultural appropriation and I’m honestly so confused can someone explain this to me? I’m new to demonolatry but have been a pagan for years and I wanted to approach her at some point but now I’m just reconsidering ? I’m so lost in that sense. I don’t mean to be disrespectful or anything.

Praise for Duchess Gremory

I have to share this. I've been interested in this aspect of life for a while now (the occult, divination, Demonaltry and Magick) but for the first time, I offered a sincere prayer to Duchess Gremory. Heres how I came to this and how it went.

I'm currently handling a broken heart and recently, its been tough to handle it. So I asked for wisdom. As much as a quick fix would help, it isn't what I actually need. I need to accept that although I'm resilient, I can be a better person.

So I laid in my bed, tears streaming down my face and I reached out. I requested her help in holding my heart together while I work on putting the pieces in place. As I sent my truest feelings to her, a warmth washed over me and I slept like a baby.

Today, I felt better than I have in a long time. I had a great day at work. I got plenty of sun, got plenty of exercise. I felt more attractive. Without even thinking about it, I put a deep blue shirt on. I was so overcome with joy, all day!

On my way home, i stayed on the train a few extra stops to visit a store where i bought a blue candle and some sheets that are also blue and some raw honey. I offered these on a westward facing table and I just gave thanks. Tears started rolling down my face and I couldn't help it.

And now, I'm sat here feeling as though my heart is being held together with a spiritual scaffolding that will let me continue to put the work in to putting it back together.

I will remain grateful. I will continue to give thanks as I work with the Duchess to rebuild my heart.

Thanks for reading, just wanted to share.

Anyone familiar with this demons name?

So let me just say I have had a lot of encounters with demons the past few years , with astral projection , dreams and face to face In the flesh encounters . None of which I evoked or intentionally welcomed . I wanted to ask about a certain one who said it's name . So I first encountered this "demon" (unsure really if thats what it is) , while astral projecting it appeared humanoid and like a shadow and always lurked in the background and was always present during projection. I then would have normal dreams and would see it there and would try confronting it , and it would try to hide in the darkness . Then upon awakening after seeing it again in a dream I saw it standing over me and then break up into smoke and disappear. The next time I saw it I was having trouble falling asleep and had my eyes slightly closed then I saw it standing over me and I could see that it had three long fingers and it touched My forehead causing me to immediately pass out. Then the last encounter it came to me during astral projection and I could see it more clearly and could see it had a sort of beak or insect mandible, it then said it's name to me , it said it's name was "Bazaarath" and then a portal open in the ceiling and it ascended towards it and disappeared. Upon awakening I was so excited to look up the name in hopes I could find it but found nothing , a month later while retelling my bf about it he searched the name but he spelled it slightly different as bazazrath and found a small passage from king Solomon stating it was a angel of the second heaven and ruled over this dragon listed in the Goetia. So not sure if there is a possible relation or what but if anyone knows the name or if it and sounds familiar or maybe similar experience I would love to hear about it or gain some insight. Much appreciated

Vassago: Just Curious

I'm surprised to see how much Vassago has been mentioned the last few days. While reading posts, I suddenly became curious about something. And honestly, it can go for ANY demon that helps find things, but Vassago is the most prominent when "I think about it.

So, he can find material things. But can he find concepts? Like...if I'm looking for inner peace, if I'm looking for a job, if I'm looking for success or a good grade, or trying to find motivation and energy?

I know it sounds weird, but I've had experiences with Stolas where I think things are out of his wheelhouse, but he'll just rephrase the whole situation to somehow make it technically his domain again, like trying to find that inner calm/peace or confidence and he says it's working on my inner universe which then makes it his domain again cuz it's a universe. Would this also be a thing with Vassago (et al)?

Guess King Paimon wanted me to stay?

I just thought this was funny (hopefully I’m not misreading the situation) but I was doing a little offering to King Paimon, you know for Halloween. I thought it’d be a little campy, but I figured he’d appreciate the gesture. I had two blue, a red, and a yellow candle lit for him. One blue and the yellow were both around halfway melted, the red and other blue were brand new. They’re all the same brand of candle. But the yellow outlasted almost all the other candles, the new blue one got down the nub before the yellow one burnt out. It had been about an hour after I started, so I said I’ll say my goodbyes once the yellow candle went out. The candle completely melted and was liquid and the wick was still burning for a good few more minutes until it went out.

Spiritual pathways?

So I know there is the left hand path like the majority of people on this community are and I assume the right hand path would be the reverse but are there any other pathways?

Demons who help you find treasures - the wrong interpretation of the western practitioners

While reading mirta's worshiping demons 101 she implied when speaking about Foras that "treasures" he can help you find mean immaterial things. Although i dont especially know about Foras or the original sources behind this implication, but I believe that this is wrong and i have seen the same implication before in other materials. In the middle east (i wrote a comment about this yesterday lol) we have a long long history of being invaded all the time. People in the distant past used to hide their gold especially when fleeing due to wars, and they left many signs to come back to their gold later (but never did for whatever reason - possibly death). If you search in some areas you will find weird symbols carved on stones, or even weirdly shaped stones. These are the signs left. Some people specialize in finding gold this way. Although it gets rarer with time, it is a real thing and i personally know people who found treasures that way. The search is not easy at all, as you might be intentionally mislead by signs or even fall for traps (you move something and find yourself buried under stones for example). Some even believe these treasures can be guarded by spirits or jinn, so if you get too close you will be attacked one way or another and even possibly go insane. Some psychics are hired for such tasks and even use their psychic powers to find gold not just to defeat the spirit. So I believe demons who are said to be helpful in finding treasures are actually helpful in finding real kilograms of gold hidden somewhere by people who lived possibly thousands of years ago - you just have to live where there is treasures tho!

Its also good to say that this practice still exists. In my country, Syria, we are still going through shit tons of conflicts, so people who had to flee already had some gold hidden here and there. Because we are fucking rotten people, many people looted the empty houses, and guess what? they found bags of gold hidden. Some hide their gold inside jars of grains, some inside washing machines, some have them in a small box hidden carefully between clothes...etc. Although it is dirty to loot someone's house when they had to leave it as it is due to war, it is still a "treasure".

Can Fae take the Names of Demons?

Fae are fairly infamous for taking the True Names of beings, often by using misleading wording to trick people into handing their names over. When making a contract with a Demon they have to give their name in order for the contract to take effect, right? What would happen if someone who was tricked by a Demon decided to try and get revenge by giving the Demon’s Name to the Fae? What if a Fae gets ahold of a Demons Name some other way? Can Demons even be affected by Fae magics and vice versa?

Astaroth

What candle color do you use..? I’ve never worked with astaroth before looking to work with her tonight.. most instructions say red, some say green some say blue… does candl color even matter when your really are going with intentions and demons look for light?? The color is an offering on its own… but I have worked with colors with Sallos and Dantallion and Elligos and Seere as well.. so it only seems fit to use proper can candle color for astaroth ..

Which color do you use? Online has so many diffent colors some use 2 at the same time.. if you ever seen Steve and Indigo they use two colors. I don’t really like their YouTube much.. I just still listen to insight regardless f I like it or not..

Has Lilith ever given you sexual dreams?

Sorry if this is a stupid question. I could also be secretly horny, or it could be the fact that I've also started working with Eros.

I've never had sexual dreams before this.

What to do for Halloween?

Hey, what’s up? I’m curious, do any of you do anything for Halloween as far as demonolatry is concerned? If so, do you have any ideas for me? I WAS going to buy an ouija board and have that be my gateway (for lack of a better term) for necromancy (as I study it) but my forgetful ass forgot to buy one lol. Seeing as the veil is thinner on Halloween it makes me feel like I have to do…something I just don’t know what. I was thinking of doing, what’s it called…that dedication ritual where you pick a patron. For me it’s Phenex without question, I heavily identify with what a phoenix represents and it’s my favorite mythical creature. However, I don’t have any incense on me either. Help a brother out, what do you guys do for Halloween, if anything? I’m not able to trick or treat tomorrow so this is the alternative, tasukete kudasai! 😖

The End Crowns The Work

Dia De Los Muertos approaches… Salve La Muerte!

Traditions connected with the holiday (Nov. 1-2) include honoring the deceased and for some even death worship…. Using skulls and marigold flowers (the flowers scent is said to attract the dead. The smell of the marigold brings them forth to the altar, when flowers are placed atop.) Candles are sometimes used to illuminate the dead’s way.

Activities include, building home altars called ofrendas with the favorite foods and beverages of the departed, and visiting graves with these items as gifts for the deceased.

“It is believed that the boundary between the living and the dead thinned on this night, and the dead would return to seek hospitality.”

A few small questions

Apologies for posting a ton, I'm just a big question-asker

  1. When you're making regular offerings, how big of an offering are you giving? Are you filling your chalice for instance all the way or just a small taste?
  2. When meditating during an invocation, are your eyes typically closed, imagining the spirit or their sigil, or are they open, focusing on the physical sigil you have drawn?
  3. Is there a standard pronunciation of goetic demons' names? Or does it not actually matter as long as you know who you are trying to contact?
  4. Where do yall buy candle holders? I have candles of all sizes but I'm having trouble finding holders beyond those for votives, tapers, and saucers for pillar candles.
  5. Does anyone keep a journal of possible signs they find and how do you separate the mundane from what may be an actual sign from the infernal?

An appreciation of King Asmodeus

After days... I don't know how many, I invoked the King. A weird feeling. I was scared he is disappointed or mad because he had sent me a reminder through this guy he always speaks through that I am lagging but I had no choice, i was sick as hell. I couldn't do anything untill today. Yet somewhere I felt bad.. he.. did seem distant or idk if that was just my head, my fear but he kept telling me he understood me and it was fine. But, I felt out of touch, weak even though the ritual went as usual. Yet I felt his sweetness surround me and he showed me a beautiful blue butterfly and he said that I was the butterfly. Interestingly, somebody I have been helping with the occult once meditated to me and told me jokingly that he saw a blue butterfly and we just laughed it off. This makes me realise the kind of relationship I have with my King and it's so different yet so sweet. A bond that is so human in nature. He makes me feel like I am not hard to love. He makes me feel like how it feels to not be scared that you'll be abondoned. It's funny how he's more communicative than most humans in a relationship hahaha. I recently told someone if I had to have a life partner.. it has to be a lot like my King. There's noone like him. He's truly so so divine. ❤️

Sallos and Dantallion

Everyone asks me a lot in my DMs who to work with for love and my go to is Always Sallos and also Dantallion..

Believe it or not 2 years ago Dantallion gave me my family I created with my SOS..

Everything I asked him for it came true not one thing did I ask for that I did not receive..

Sallos also brought my loved one back to me in a week but of course I lite a candle and offered new offering everyday for that week. But it worked because I was dedicated..

You have to be dedicated.. you can’t do a one day ask and wait for results.. that’s not how it works..

You jsut need to do the work and research yourself as everyone else does. Cannot spoon feed answers. Research takes hours, days, weeks and sometimes months because you can perfectly figure it out on your own how to connect.

Find their candle, find the offerings they like.. find your own way of connecting with them. Not everyone has the same.. find a way to communicate.. I used a pendulum or I ask them to move and sway my candle light for yes or no answers.. it’s up to you and your comfort.

Good luck xx

Unexpected Marquis Andras and Earl/King Vine connection in dream

TL;DR: Standard dream of a past love who caused deep emotional trauma, and they suddenly mention they were devoted/connected to Marquis Andras (not irl). Vine sigil/name also makes an appearance. Neither are part of my current team and this was very unexpected (I've dreamt of the person before on occasion signifying that I still have shadow work to do on breaking this cord of attachment and heal). Self-awareness comes naturally to me and thus dream interpretation (lucid dreamer) but this one is not quite clear. Context in post. Additional perspectives to consider are welcome.

I had a dream last night about someone from my past who I fell deeply for, who ended up hurting me badly by using and disposing of me and my trust. In the dream, they had returned to my life but in a neutral-pleasant way, talking about their life and family. They did not address their past action so I still felt connected to them but pained at the same time.

In the dream, I noticed a sigil and name around them, saying "Andras". I said, "Marquis Andras?" Like the goetia demon? They responded yes, that that and their family had been connected to this entity for a long time.

  • Floods of violet all around.
  • I excitedly showed my necklace with Asmodeus's sigil, sharing that he was my patron.
  • randomly, a sigil with the words "Vine" around it appears.

Here are my best potential interpretations:

  1. Marquis Andras is known for sowing discord and associated with death, and occasionally punishment and/or pain. My brain put these two things together randomly.
  2. The above, but my subconscious is trying to let me know that he hurt me in a very pointed way, enough for me to be dreaming and pained about it almost two decades later.
  3. My spirit team (which does not currently involve either entity) is letting me know I need to try to prioritize processing this more to let it go at this time.
  4. Marquis Andras is inviting me to punish this person. The only justice I actually desire is for this person to truly understand at the deepest level the trauma their actions have caused me. I don't wish them ill, I just want them to face what they've done. To take real accountability in facing who they are, and change for the better.
  5. This is some sort of experiment/test to see if I will turn to baneful efforts.

Context:

  1. I have not recently or often thought about Marquis Andras, though I have thought about Vine in the past and skimmed a few posts about it semi-recently.
  2. The only possible thing I would ask of Marquis Andras would be to sever the emotional tie I have to this person, to set me free, by letting the cord "die".
  3. I actually have a rather healthy relationship with death. Two major souls in my inner family have passed within the last couple years (one recently), and I feel I'm doing a pretty good job of processing this.
  4. I am not afraid of the Marquis, but have been hesitant to reach out due to my natural sensitivity and what I've read about their energy.
  5. I attempted to reach out to Vine ages ago, but didn't think anything came of it. The goal is/was to better develop my clairs on order to improve my ability to connect with my entities/meditate/divine etc.
  6. I do occasionally have dreams about this person, but never in connection with any infernals or spirituality. I'm very aware that I still have emotional work to do to truly let it go, especially as someone with RSD.

I am contacting my current team to see what they make of this dream, but I really highly value trying to look at things from varying perspectives. Is there something that stands out to you that I might be missing as I piece this together? I usually tend to be pretty good at interpreting my dreams (especially as a natural lucid dreamer, although I have to put more energy into keeping it this way as I get older) but this one is a bit more of a puzzle. I'm curious what you all make of it? I promise to take everything with a huge grain of salt; I'm just trying to be more scientific in gathering different viewpoints I might not have considered as I sort through it. It's entirely possible that this is just a mundane jumble of thoughts of brains doing brainy things, but for some reason it feels different than other instances like this.
