Karl Haikara Michael W Ford has brought Darkness Enshroud full circle back to where it started all those years ago with Ancient Kingdoms. Horrific and intensely evil dark ritual ambient that is reminiscent to me of LLN projects like Satanicum Tenebrae and Moevot. A brilliant hour long descent into hellish crypts of the Devil that I highly recommend.

ORATIO AD ANGELUM PERSPICIUNT LAPSUM, IN RUBRUM DRACO, DOMINUM NOSTRUM A DIABOLI (Prayer of the Fallen Angel, the Red Dragon, Our Lord the Devil) Decrepit liar in heaven, disgusting be your name. Your kingdom is nothing, a pathetic illusion for the weak. Long vanished from this world, cursed Nazarene lie. The Morning Star blazed down to make this world, On Earth as it is in Hell. Give us this day the quiet sense of power, Give us this night undefiled wisdom. Our suffering liberates us that we may stamp down our enemies. May we devour and subject the wretched and the weak, Bring us into your temptations, tasting the pleasures of this world. To master your temptations, that we may become living embodiments of Satan. Deliver us from religions, for only belief in the self is key to the luminous fire Which you O Satan, Lucifer, Azazel, Beelzebub, Belial and Legion so gave. For I am the Kingdom of the Dragon, Beast and Spirit of Evil. Each an Antichrist blessed in the Devil’s Name. To discredit the wretched fantasy of the cursed Nazerene. In the Name of Satan, In the Light of Lucifer and the Darkness of Beelzbub, Lord of Flies, God of Filth and Infernal Treasures, Amen.

In Nomine Diabole Spiritus In nómine Draco, et Bestia, et Spiritus Daemoniorum (In the name of the Draco, and of the Beast, and of the Demonic Spirit.) Ave Draco Magnus, Serpens antiquus, qui vocatur Diabolus, et Satanas. (Hail the great dragon, that old serpent, who is called the devil, and Satan) Deum de hoc mundo! (God of this World) Laudo angelorum desertorum insignius excellebat. (I Praise the Fallen Angels) Ave Dei ad principem Potestatis Aeris (Hail to the Prince of the Powers of the Air) Opitulari et nigra flamma, ut sciat bonum et malum (Bestow the gift of the black flame, to know good and evil). (BEFORE THE BLACK FLAME, INVOKE YOUR PRIMAL AND HIGHEST ASPECT OF YOUR MIND, BODY AND SPIRIT) KATESTHIEI OURANŌ (‘Devour Heaven’ vibrate rhythmically 7x) DRAKON PYRROS MEGAS (‘The Great Red Dragon’ recite deeply 7X) OPHIS ARCHAIOS DIABOLOS KAI SATANAS ANABAINON (‘The Ancient Serpent, the Devil and Satan, Rising’) chant and draw in visualized Luminous Fire 7x) THĒRION (‘The Beast’, this word is used only as a name of the Antichrist as the 7 headed beast which rises from the ocean; draw up the power and energy of the Beast 666 as a solar force of primal, conquering violence and mastery) THĒRION ANABAINON EK TĒS ABYSSOU (‘the Beast rises from the Abyss’ vibrate 7x) (DRINK FROM CHALICE, MAKE THE SIGN OF THE INVERTED CROSS BEING A SIMPLE SIGN OF THE INFERNAL TRINITY OF THE DRAGON (SATAN), THE BEAST (ANTICHRIST) AND FALSE PROPHET (SPIRIT OF EVIL) Egeire Antichristum! (Rise Antichrist!) Ave Onomata Blasphēmias! (‘Hail the Names of Blasphemy’, affirmation and rejection of the religious laws of Christianity; the aim of becoming a vessel of Satan and Lucifer, Antichrist and the Spirit of Darkness; by denying Christ, religious slavery and commanding your inner power is symbolic of uttering the names of blasphemy; The Luciferian ‘Royal Crowns’ and ‘Horns’ of the Beast is self-appointed authority to establish your control in this world; the symbol of crowns upon the Beast 666 represent self-mastery and successful application of Magick in your life) Bellum contra inimicos vexillifer lumen, Spiritus afflatus cælitus (To make war against the enemies of the Light Bearer, Demon inspired heavenly inspiration). Et de infirmitate fortes facti sunt Diaboli flammam Daemon illuminat (To be strong against weakness and to become a god and demon who illuminates the black flame of Satan). Dona mihi jucunda inferni (grant me the pleasures of Hell) In Nomine Berith, In Nomine Oriens rex Orientis, In nominee Paimon, In Nomine Sathan, In Nomine Sismael, Demon Malignus, Ave! Ave! In Nomine Lucifer, In Nomine Belial. I conjure and summon thee, Legions of the Adversary. By this black candle’s flame, I praise and honor the gift of knowledge, the Pact of the Black Flame, passed down from the descending 200 of old. Ave Sathan, Amen.

THE BLACK ARTE OF MALEFICIA A fetid hag, joined by circle in the places of the plague-dead, a coven secretive and hidden. Those of the sickened Nazerene beg to burn us, let those same bodies of the living be tortured by nature and unholy powers. Damnum minatum, uttered before the cursed. Macabre beasts and black birds haunt those to be removed, a singular inquisition in the Devil’s name, practiced repeatedly with ecstasy. The hag-Witch chants the words and casting the blazing eye, directs spirits of cruel desires. A funeral gathering of black-winged ravens, rats spreading disease and the plague by Undead visitors, the fog brings visions of the maiden. The ghosts still clinging to their places now decayed shudder and honor the devils and spirits of night. Serpents writhe within her aging body and flies swarm the impotent divine. Maleficia is this Arte, one page from that Black Book of Death held by the Devil’s clawed hand. The haunted forests are passages to these earthly pleasures and wisdom. She holds the toad to the home so cast the Damnum minatum. Devil’s and familiar spirits fly upon the funereal winds to attend this Goetic Circle and wicked power.

Vinculum Spiritibus Malignis (A Ritual Bond with Malignant Spirits) *Adapted from “A Bond of Satan or Mirage”, no. 32, from the Munich Necromancer’s Handbook. Deus demonum, deus archangelorum, deus Diabole, deus domini nostri Satanas. I conjure you Adversary of weakness, enemy of the servile and pale sheep, destroyer of false saints. I summon the Adversary whose names are many and terrible to be chanting in the night: Satan, the Devil, Opposer, Mahazael, Belial, Mastema, Beelzebub, Berith, Astaroth, Sathan, Bael, Leviathan, Lucifer and the Legion of the Star of the Morning, By Diabolus and Samael! By the virtues of self-reliance and strength of Will; by the Fallen Angels and Demons of immortal spirit and aerial abode, gather unto me! Infernal Spirit whose inspires and illuminates my mind, by Lucifer the King who commands and rules this earth. O Infernal brothers and sisters, guides and teachers of the Black Arts; I conjure thou Spirit of the Devil to fill my temple of mind, body and spirit. Hail Satan, Hail Beelzebub, Hail Lucifer, Hail Leviathan, in the Devil’s Name I journey into the darkness and so guided by the dagger-ridged crooked spine of the dragon, Ave! Unclean Spirit, Dragon, Noxious Serpent, I invoke you by the mystery of Cain’s bloodthirst from whence Clay became Fire and atlast Light. Ave Author of Diabolical Power, Inventor of Malice and Ruler of this World. I conjure you O Devil, by the Dragon, Beast and False Prophet, ignited and risen in me. I reject the bastard Christ, I deny the false god, I spit upon the deflowered virgin whore-mother, I embrace Death to awaken in Life! I conjure you O blessed, holy Devil of old. Ave Satanas!

Lucifugous 05:02
LUCIFUGOUS I stand in total darkness and conjure the Lucifugous ones, those detesting the light. The spirits who never appear by day, taking form only at night. Those who can become as the Undead also haunt the tomb-ways into shadow. Icy passions, dark spirits beyond human nature. Restless and malicious to the profane, destroy and oppress men by way of meeting at night. Satariel, whose Name belongs to he that once descended, concealing passions in darkness. Lucifuge, the Black Flame is covered by dark spirit and as a robe, cannot be perceived. Darkness is that which all is nourished and born from. The Serpent awaits those kissed by the Devil’s many lips, our Names written in the Black Book of Death. By the way of death we emerge immortal in shadowy spirit.

CONJURATION OF INFERNAL AND CELESTIAL HIERARCHY *Adapted from two manuscripts dating between 1500-1680, MSS Sloane 3825 and Harley 6482, published in “The Keys to the Gateway of Magic: Summoning the Solomonic Archangels and Demon Princes”. O ye glorious, great, conquering, rebellious and Celestial Fallen Angels, fiery Spirits illuminated in Black Flame, I conjure and greet thee in honor. Demon Princes who have mastered and brought knowledge and freedom to man I burn this pitch-black candle as remembrance of the Gift of Forbidden Knowledge so passed down long ago. Hail to Lucifer, Beelzebub and Sathan, Fallen Cherubim and Seraphs who are Gods of this World. I seek the mastery and power of the Aerial and Terrestrial powers, be it for good or evil, lust or destruction. Lucifer, I conjure under Tantavalerion your Orders of spirits, malign and cruel to my enemies. Beelzebub, Great Prince and with Lucifer, brightest among the Cherubium, I summon you from the East. I conjure you Sathan, great shining fiery Angel of the Cherubium who abides obscurely in the Air. Hail to you Sathan, Prince of the Air, send forth your Legions of Spirits to coruscate and disturb the Air, so this world be balanced between creation and destruction. I have wandered the wilderness and tempted by you, Sathan, granting me the Black Flame in strength. Hail Angels of Disobedience and Chaos come forth! I summon the Four Kings of the Air ruling under Sathan: I conjure Oriens, King of the East, appearing with 200 Legions, crowned in the Rays of the Blazing Sun, trumpets blaring before you. I conjure Amaymon, King of the South, Mighty and Great who has many forms and is both terrible, horrifying and beautiful in a nimbus of Black Luminous Fire. Amaymon named Mahazael, devouring Witch-Father of the South, appearing as a black Raven or strong King, Hail! I conjure Amaymon, King of the South Angle of the Air with Great and Powerful Spirits named Aleche, Berith, Marage and Mala. I conjure Paimon, King of the West, Terrible and Cacophonous in howling when you come forth. Paimon, Great King who is crowned in a bright crown, musical instruments announcing your approach. Come forth with Balserth, Belial, Baroson, Rombulence, Ramblane and Alphasis. I conjure Egyn, King of the North, Royal Spirit I call to you! Great Power Egin, King of the North and Mansion of the Air, send forth your Legions of Aerial Spirits subjected with you. By the Obedience and Command of that Great and Mighty Spirit named Sathan, Prince of the Powers of the Air, who governs the Four Angels, Regions, Divisions and Mansions of the East, West, North and South. Great King of the North Angle of the Air, Egin, who is named also Ariton, I conjure these Royal Great Spirits named Vassago, Othey, Um and Anaboth. Egin who is named Arhreton, keeper of secret and mysteries of knowledge and power. I command the Infernal Powers of the Four Quarters and Towers of Celestial and Infernal power: Of the East Samael, West to Azazel, the North to Azael and the South to Maharuel so it shall be: Your Kingdom and Spirits rise in my Circle of Mind, Body and Soul. Let us do the Devil’s Work and Cast this world to darkness and flames!

VENEFICUS DAEMONIUM ANIMAE ZABULUS (Sorcery of the Indwelling Demon by the Spirit of Zabulus, the Devil) Skotous Exousias tou Satana in Surge! (The Darkness, Power of Satan Rise Within!) From the tombs, graves and the cold stench of death all life is devoured. By the Black Moon and pools of infernum, pitch-black and horrid decay. I call the Dominions of Darkness and larve (evil spirits) who feast upon the blissful destruction of this world and life. Courage as the Fallen Angels so dwell in this vessel of Mind, Flesh and Spirit encircled in Darkness. By the path of terror and chaos does the Black Flame shine forth the heritage of Azazel, Lucifer rises in me and from the Abyss I rise up casting vast shadows and indulging in fleshly life and disciplined mind. In the Name of Zabulus and those Spirits and Demons of the Air and who reign by the authority of the God of this World, I am both a living Demon of Darkness and an Angel of Fiery Light. In the Name of Zabulus, So it is ever so!
8.
SIGILLUM DIABOLI (THE DEVIL’S SEAL) I deny the false god who claims heaven and earth, feeble and wretched to the suffering in the world. I deny the baptism. I adhere to the Devil who is the ecstatic liberator! To Satan whose fiery luminous Spirit so illuminated Clay into Fire, who beholds Black Light! I trample the cross! The Devil’s Hand bestows the blessings of Hecate and her Holy Fire. So, joined in the Lord and Lady of the Infernal Sabbat. I trace the sign of the Inverted Cross, sacred unto the Antichristian Trinity: Dragon, Beast and Spirit of Evil. I rejoice in the sacred and ghastly Antichrist, whose spirit has illuminated me forth into this world. I curse jehova and mutilate the body of Christ. I affirm Satan, So it is done as it is in Hell.
9.
Exousius tou Satana (The Power of Satan) A black candle burning in your honor, Hail to you, called The Desolate One, Fallen Angel and the Wicked Dragon. O Satan, beloved father and bringer of wisdom and the passions of Therion, who reveals the joy and pleasures of forbidden knowledge and the heights of power in this world. O Satan, bestow your power unto me, bless me as a demon in human flesh. I deny the false trinity and raise the True Satanic Trinity, blazing as the torch between the horns. Dragon, Beast, Spirit of Evil (False Prophet), the Devil’s power is so bestowed upon those born of Witch Blood, the Black Flame is the torch bringing Legions of malignant demons and unclean spirits to my aid and to dwell within my temple of Spirit, Mind and the Flesh. O Hear the Names: Beelzebub, Astaroth, Lucifer, Belial, Satan, Oriens, Paimon, Curson, Abigor, Volac and the Legions of Rebel Spirits who are Angels of Light to us which seek knowledge. I shall attain sorcerous power, the cursed arte of Cain, the first of Witch Blood. I accept the destruction in this world, the ecstasy of violence and death. I honor the cycle of creation which arises from the ashes of destruction. Let us shape and create this world new, O Satan! Amen.
10.
VENEFICA VOTUM IGNIS TENEBRAE (The Vow and Prayer of the Witch by the Flame of Darkness) At midnight she stands alone within a circle, a rising vortex of power, a pillar of sorcerous energy and demonic presence. Midnight, the interstice between this day and the next. I conjure the Opposer, Adversary, Enemy of the sheep and champion of wolves! Between the high and low tides, the witch turns three times opposite of the Sun’s path. All sacred gestures invoking chaos and disorder. By the Devil’s Name is it so, uttering Nine Times: “Take all that is between my Two Hands!” Servitors and familiars crept forth, bodies assumed from patch workings of grotesque parts, nightmare creatures. Goat hoofs, wolf fangs, scaled skin, pale necrotic faces. Let us do the work of Deofel, go now by the name of Andras, raven-skulled malign murderer and author of ecstatic bloodshed. To shadow’d door ways, through window shudders, drink and devour the life of men. Turn their cross towards Hell, Antichrist shall come! Flauros hear me!

about

"MALEFICIUM - The Psalms of Diabolus" is the essence of Medieval Orthodox Satanism interpreted in this current age as a contrasting balance between myth and black magick centered in the Acasual Metaphysics of Diabolism or Satanism as is an obscure, hidden cultus within the Luciferian Tradition. Each diabolic hymn, satanic prayer and invocation conceals a deeper meaning which is parallel with the aims of the initiatory experience of Apotheosis in the Luciferian tradition!
