"A long and detailed guide for those that really want to get into theistic luciferianism."
- I'm beginning to see more people start it nowadays, it's making me glad, but also unsure with deeply rooted misinformation from modern practitioners.

(The image below shows the painting "The Light Within" by American artist Karl J. Kuerner.)
- Lucifer is not as something to be worshiped but is a symbol of the inner light and the quest for knowledge. This philosophy encourages balance between light and dark aspects of oneself, striving for holistic self-improvement and personal empowerment.
- This path is less about defiance for its own sake and more about transcending limitations through understanding, self-discipline, and introspection.
- There is not just one Lucifer and none are more real or true than the other, also not all of them are mentioned in books or sources. Some are discovered personally.
- The version of Lucifer you picture, is the one that will answer you.
- This goes for all entities/gods, you do not make any of them up, you become aware of them. They always existed amongst us. None belong to any sort of religions and don't originate from them.
- This also goes for all entities and gods, Lucifer doesn't have a physical form or body. They are made of pure energy, not flesh and blood, existing in a form distinct from the four known states of matter (solid, liquid, gas, and plasma). Everything that you saw in paintings and arts is personalisation/presentation, but he can take over one as vessel. He also has his own preference over appearance. They all do.
- Because of lack of attachment to any sort of physical body, they can't feel anything, unless they're possessing one. They aren't bound by human morals and limiting rules as well. Don't mistake yours for theirs.
- Yes, he can possess any kind of body, he can possess a person that reaches out to him with or without consent. It's very subtle until you notice difference in your speech, your knowledge of things, the way you carry yourself and behaviour overall. It would happen to me mainly out of communicative reasons, you might not remember it if it happens in sleep.
- He encourages us to embrace the unknown, venture into uncharted territories of thought, and uncover truths that elevate our understanding of ourselves and the world.
- When he's invoked, you'll feel emotionless, empty and at peace. He'll teach you to be more of a rational thinker and use evidence to evaluate information and make sound decisions, rather than being influenced by emotions or biases. This doesn't mean you should neglect emotions now.
- In Roman and Greek mythology, Lucifer/Phosphoros was the name for the morning star, Venus. The name literally means "light-bringer" or "light-bearer". The term was used neutrally, as a celestial designation or a poetic epithet for deities associated with light, without any negative moral connotations.
- Lucifer isn't his original name and is just a title to recognise him by. He has many other ones.
- For Luciferians, enlightenment is the ultimate goal. The basic Luciferian principles highlight truth and freedom, worshipping the inner self and one's ultimate potential, and to encourage and celebrate the same within all.
- Lucifer represents wisdom found through self exploration. The blend between dark and light.
- He inspires self-discovery, autonomy, and the courage to question established norms.
- Lucifer is a Deity of purity, enlightenment, and understanding of truth. Hidden Knowledge is his specialty. When you get closer to him you start to have so many revelations about the universe and existence altogether every single day.
- He's not a king, he doesn't need to control anybody, he doesn't need prayers, blood, cries and pleas to feel powerful. He is in state where he is whatever he wishes to be already.
- He won't grant you what you want or need, but he will guide you towards the answer how to get it. Lucifer wants you to figure it out yourself, kinda like a parent/mentor.
- Lucifer isn't weak or stronger than other gods, they are all equal. The comparisons are unnecessary and stupid, because none of them don't know about any limits. We are same to them in a sense with our essence and consciousness.
- He doesn't ask for you to worship and submit to him. He doesn't want you to put him on pedestal as someone superior, but someone to stand next to.
- You introduce yourself to him and welcome him in your life simply by thinking about it or giving it any sort of consideration.
- He can teach you anything, but his lessons mainly rotate around growth and independence or reclaim of your own capabilities.
- He'll always appear to you in a way you'll recognise him, wether it be a symbol, animal, picture, song, words and person. The list goes on. He might cause headaches either to you or somebody else around, depends on your sensitivity. Those that have clairvoyance and clairsentience might see a shadowy humanoid figure + feel warmth, sometimes light pressure of large hand. It's intense and overwhelming to some, depends on person.
- Don't make a burden or chore out of journey with him. It shouldn't be something that drains you, so whatever feels forceful don't do it. Don't overthink anything either, it will create complications.
- Lucifer isn't someone to order around.
- Be patient and aware of your surroundings, he's always listening and responding to you. Sometimes you won't realise it at first but later. Don't overthink it much.
- He doesn't need a fancy altar or offerings, just your willingness and desire. I'd spend months without using divination, without setting up space, without any prayers and stayed connected nonetheless. Sure it looks pretty and aesthetically pleasant, just don't think it's necessary. He's not one that obsesses over material stuff. Far from it actually
- His patience is like spider's when creating a web, but he'll cut through foolery and ignorance.
- He's direct and blunt with answers, won't elaborate on them completely until you are ready to hear them and accept them.
- Even when you do stop thinking about him, talking to him, take a pause from practice or completely stop, the connection will never fade.
- Don't absorb everything you read in books, wether it be about him or something else in general. Just because they're old for centuries or years doesn't mean they're correct 100%.
- Choose what aligns with you as inspiration, insight and clue what to search for next and where.
- As dominant thoughts in your head that don't feel like yours, including change in sensations.
- The shift in your life and path.
- Images behind your eyelids.
- Whispers & unexplained sounds.
- Knocks on any sort of surface.
- Increased synchronicities.
- Intense personal resonance.
- Candle flames growing really tall and straight.
Tarot cards that can be associated with him
!Skip if you don't use tarot deck!
Liberation and freedom: The reversed Devil signifies that you are breaking free from what has been holding you back, such as a destructive relationship, addiction, or a sense of being trapped.
Overcoming limitations: The card suggests that you are realizing you had the power to break free all along, but you are now taking steps to do so.
Integrating the shadow: As the "bringer of light" or "morning star," Lucifer is often associated with bringing hidden knowledge to light. In a reversed Devil reading, this represents confronting the hidden or "shadow" parts of yourself that you've been denying, such as anger, envy, or fear, which can lead to a deeper understanding and integration of your true self
The king of swords (upright)
Intellectual authority and integrity: The King of Swords represents a mature, authoritative figure guided by reason, logic, and truth. In the context of Luciferian principles, this signifies the mastery of objective thought and the ability to cut through complex issues with a clear mind.
