My main god and goddess are Samael and Lilith. For the most part I don't use the names of pagan Gods and Goddesses because I believe my God and Goddess are these pagan Gods and Goddesses, I moreso see them as symbols or as having power similar to my God and Goddess, to add to the power of my God and Goddess.
For example Hekate is not Lilith,
Lilith is actually older than Hekate, but they share many similarities, for example Lilith is the leader of the succubus and Hekate is the leader of the Lamiae. They both kind of embody a dark Selene which does not mean either are Selene, they just resemble a darker version of her.
I do however believe certain Gods and Goddesses are my God and Goddess.
I also believe wind spirits, succubus, faeries, sprites and Nymphs all have a relationship to Lilith.
I believe these are all forms of Lilith for awhile Lilith was exonorated as Asherah.
She began as Klili/Lilitu and Ishtar's sacred prostitute, I personally believe she's just the sexual side of Ishtar. She was later adopted by the pagan Cananaanites as God's wife, and slowly was desocrated as the 'Whore of Babylon'
As far as Samael goes, Samael didn't start off as an evil God.
He was represented by bulls cattle and fertility, he was the ancient Mesopotamian God of the Night and the Moon named Sin. Later the Jewish Zohar calls him as the Moon and his light as evil, in which 'demons' predominately came out at night which leads him to another God I identify him as Panzuzu. A prince of the wind demons or Lilitu who would come out at night, and cause men to be tempted sexually by them.
I also strongly believe Samael is the God Mars, associated with Rome and war, and Pan the God of the wilderness, lust, sex, shepards and fertility, who ruled the Nymphs.
But I know Samael and Lilith are Ba'al and Astarte/Asherah, and they both have been degraded.
A lot of people think Samael would be Nergel and Hades, I see Lucifer who is the highest aspect of Samael playing these roles. I also believe Lucifer played the role of Enki and Anu and Zeus.
Lucifer, Lilith and Samael to me together are God.
God came here as two angels that loved and respected each other Azazel and Shemyaza and Lilith became Azazel's(Samael's) wife . Man placed them at war with each other and created the God vs. Satan theme.
If you study the ancient mythology Nergel and Anu were never at war with each other neither were Zeus and Hades.
Samael is simply the sexual side of Lucifer, as Lilith is the sexual side of Inanna/Ishtar. Samael and Lilith are a fertility God and Goddess they very much so embody sex, personal autonomy, death and witchcraft.
Jezebel saw Ba'al as being Zeus. I see Ba'al as being Pan and Mars.
Sexuality has been shunned because it creates powerful magick and alongside that Ba'al and Asherah became Samael and Lilith.
These are my ideals as a Lilim or a Romantic Theistic Satanist.
I support and aknowledge Lucifer but I feel that my Samael and Lilith are underdogs who are way too feared in society and scapegoated for too much, while Lucifer tends to relieve a lot of love. That's why I stand by them I believe they are a very beautiful God and Goddess who are protective generous and loving to their worshippers.
Anyone who takes a dark moon path and becomes a Lilim like me will be critiqued especially by the monotheistics. Nevertheless we Lilim know our divine mother and father Lilith and Samael, Astarte and Ba'al were just desocrated and demonized by the followers of monotheistic religions men made Lilith's worshippers into sex slaves after desocrating her shrines, and then chastised female sexuality while creating the sex trafficking industry.
I know the Christian Devil is just a lie, because this same said Devil has treated me with a lot of love and respect. My Gods have been scapegoats for men to commit atrocities while blaming them so they can ride above the law.
My Gods are not evil. Men have loved Lucifer they made him into their Jehovah, their Allah their Yahweh. They have loved the light while scapegoating Samael.
When Samael is just a darker and more sexual side of Lucifer that deserves just as much love and respect. That's why I stick by them.
These Gods now more than ever need my love and support.
I don't believe what I do to offend Christians, Muslims, Jews or even other pagans. I do it because this is my practice this is coming from my heart and this is where I find peace spiritually.
If you hate me for my Lilim spirituality,
Have you personally met Samael or Lilith and got to know them?
Or have you been conditioned by society into hating them.
Just like the Patriarch chastises women's sexuality and easily calls women whores, when men are exornorated when they act in a similar manner.
Or how the Patriarch conditions women to hate other women and get jealous of them to control women and empower the Patriarch.
Organized religion and the Patriarch are abusive and evil not my loving Gods Lilith and Samael,
They are just like an antibacterial that makes the disease and infection of the Patriarch be seen.
