Hymn to Duke Aim

Ave the Great Strong Duke Aim

You are Master of the Flame

From the Desert Winds of the South you arrive

Your nature of Solar Fire helps us to thrive

Body of a man with three heads you have

A serpent is one, yet another a calf

A man with two stars on your forehead

On a viper with firebrand, a dutiful warhead

Bestower of wit

Rhetoric

Writing skills and rhyme

Your creative inspiration is divinely sublime

Remover of every creative block

In personal matters, the truth you unlock

The number of officials you have is twenty-six

Approached with respect, you return with friendliness

Oh Duke Aim, most numinous muse

With your ever-burning flame please ignite my fuse

[elusivedaydream]

With all of your might

An enlightened state of consciousness is my divine right

Ignite my passion and tell me secrets of divinity

Thank you for inspired action, defense, and mental acuity

Gift me freedom and grant me choice

Because of you, sweet Satan, I have my own voice

Prayer to Grand Marquis Phenex

Ave Grand Marquis Phenex. Powerful and numinous are you, divine bird of firy transformation who rises from the ashes. May you help me to transmute the dust of my thoughts and flames of my emotions into creations of beauty. May words flow from my lips and images from my brush as an elixir which heals, a sweet cordial which intoxicates, a magickal potion which sets into motion. Let my words inspire and reach from the depths of my psyche to the divine abode above. Sing to me the secrets of the natural sciences, that my art may be grounded in truth and nourished by revelations. Uncloak for me the bones of the archetypal world. The fractal creation forever has more to unveil. Abracadabra. I create as I speak. Be my muse that I may be ever inspired. Transform me and rebirth the old and dead into new life. Let my story and being be an alchemical work on all levels- physical, mental, astral, and spiritual. Glory to you, Grand Marquis Phenex.

Hymn to Grand Marquis Phenex

Hail Phenex, you numinous wonder

Let your praise be loud as thunder

He who from the dross rises renewed

With feathers of fire you are viewed

Science and art are things you love

In a moonlit sky you sing from above

Your poetic verse echos through the land

The natural world is what you understand

Inner alchemical transformation

This education is your operation

Honor and splendor are your praise

You inspire in infinite ways

[elusivedaydream]

Hymn to Grand Marquis Amon

Grand Marquis Amon

Demon of Life and Reproduction

With your firy breath

You can ignite both love and lust

Among friendships

You can instill feuds

Or bring reconciliation

Past and future

Both of these you know

Wise and cunning

As your serpent’s tail reveals

Loyal leader

Courageous

Your head of a wolf declares

In human form

With a raven’s head

Thus reveals your gift of insight

Strong teeth for piercing words

You are known as a great god in Egypt

Invisible

God of Wind

Self-created King of Gods

God of Mystery

Lord of the Silent

Have been your names

In Graeco-Rome you were called

Protector of the Road

Ave Marquis Amon

Praise and glory to the

Lunar and underworld daemon

Who brings us strength of will,

Love, lust, friendship,

Truth in divination,

And other gifts for those who call you

Prayer to Duke Sallos

Hail Duke Sallos, he who unites men and women in love and passion! I praise you and thank you for your divine guidance, wisdom, and assistance in matters of intimacy. I ask that you empower me in connecting with my partner on a deeper level. Please help me to honor and respect myself as I walk beside this person in our journey through life. I ask that you strengthen and increase the bond that we share with one another. Please, ease and enhance the flow of love between us.

Hail the Great Duke of Love, Duke Sallos!

[elusivedaydream]

Hymn to Duke Sallos

The Great Duke of Love

Duke Sallos

Love the other

Lust, intoxicating intermingling, and intertwining

Love turned inwardly to the self

Replenishing the center, the heart

The gift of sharing that divine nectar of unity

Passionate expression of the celestial light

In the deepest, darkest depths of the physical

Spanning the two souls from head to toe

Out to in

In to out

Heart to mind

Body to soul

Present to eternity

Captivating the eternal into timeless now

Masculine ravaging the sacred and elusive feminine

You are the divine matchmaker of the daemonic

The inciter of lustful passion

The wondrous mirror for self-love

[elusivedaydream]

Prayer to Lord Satan

Lord Satan,

Grant me freedom, that I may truly live. Fan the Black Flame within me, that I may honor myself in my divinity. Protect me from those who seek to make me small or restrain me, that I may never be defeated. Help me to be brave and face the world, that I may conquer and be a force of reckoning. Open the gates of the infernal domain, that I may walk a path of opportunity and wisdom. Ave Lord Satan.

[elusivedaydream]

Hymn to Lord Satan

Hail Satan

Lord of the Earth

He who grants us the Black Flame

The Black Flame which empowers us

Our own divinity

Because of you, oh Satan

Creation is possible

Through separation from Source

I am that I am

Experience, choice, freewill

That intoxicating, delicious fruit

From the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil

Death did not come upon us

As the blind god threatened

And if it did

It was a rebirth into a new life

Where we can be as one of them

The gods

Divine gnosis

Initiation into the mysteries

Of truth

By darkness and shadow

the blinding light is tempered

Light is broken down into glorious color

Separation, expansion

Testing, learning

This is possible because of you

Oh, most glorious Lord Satan

[elusivedaydream]

Prayer to Prince Stolas

Ave Prince Stolas, wise teacher of astronomy, stones, and plants. You know the virtues of the celestial realm, and the properties for both healing and poison, magickal creation and destruction of the terrestrial world. Please be with me in my studies. Guide me and inspire me, oh Divine Daemon of Nature! With your wings you fly and know the skies above, with your piercing sight you see into the darkest and most hidden and secret places in the natural world. With your curiosity and wisdom, you discover and reveal their mysteries. I ask that you share your insight into our place in between the divine heavens and hell of matter and darkness, and the web of creation that is the matrix we live in. All is Spirit, if we can only see it. Open my eyes, oh wise teacher! Help me to understand the intimate relationship that we share with the planets, lights, and stars above, the plants at our sides, and the stones below our feet. May my studies honor you and reflect your glorious wisdom, Prince Stolas!

[elusivedaydream]

Hymn to Prince Stolas

Celestial nightraven

Guide of the stars

Rays of the sky

Shining down

Into the plants

And the stones below

You know

The virtues thereof

Arcane archetypes and ancient wisdom

Medicine of the sky, the earth, and the underworld

You are a wise, kind and patient teacher

May you in your generosity share your knowledge

with all of those whom seek it

For healing inside and out

Spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical

Glory to the wise Prince Stolas

[elusivedaydream]

Cultural appropriation has been, until recently, a *neutral* phrase used in anthropology to describe a natural process whereby cultural practices are transferred from one culture and integrated into another. It is completely normal and healthy for people to be inspired and reproduce what they see another group of people doing.

Things that may be a problem could be: Claiming authenticity when modifying, not fully understanding, not having enough experience, etc.

Doing a practice solely for the purpose of profit or a gimmick while ignoring tradition or having an inability to grasp the meaning of the practice.

Generally speaking, people shouting "cultural appropriation! Not ok!" Just seem to enjoy finding things wrong with everyone else around them. Here in the US, people often forget that our country is known as "the great melting pot" and whatever "culture" we have is appropriated from elsewhere.
