    Ode To Lost Souls

    Not to you do I speak brave of heart and firm of purpose

    Nor to you bright ones within a field of lightNot to you who walks in purpose fulfilled

    Nor to you of vision strong buoyed by lifes enrichment

    But to you I speak wanderer upon the shores of nightAnd to you the desolate ones outside the circles of life

    Raised upon columns of molten ash

    Your journey began with a cry and ends with a screamBetwixt the emptiness evolved

    First a doubt becomes a certaintyThose of faith know you not Those of vision know you not

    Those of purpose know you not

    Within the citadel of life do they dwellBasking beneath an indolent sun

    EditorialSolus Noir manifests at this time as adirect consequence of a magickal workingundertaken and completed over a twentyyear time span.

    Solus Noir serves as the official organ ofOrdo Templi Solus Noir.

    De Arte Magicka consummate with the methodology of rite and axiomata has leftin its wake an application both magickal and aesthetic. The rite has opened aningress point or portal onto a wellspring of creativity where the current becomesmanifest in word, sigil, graphik and image. This path has been undertaken by othersnotably Austin Osman Spare, Kenneth Grant and Andrew D. Chumbley to whom weowe a debt of gratitude.

    In practical terms Talismanic Texts, Arte Graphika and Axiomata have become theprimary means by which the current we attend is manifested. All contributions tothis and forthcoming issues lies within the body of Ordo Templi Solus Noir and arepublished at this time to fulfill our current directive.

    Prime Considerations

    This text is to be considered in the light of an extensive undertaking, twenty yearsin the making, to manifest The Black Sun.

    The Black Sun may be viewed as the natural consequence of the unification ofSamael and his consort Lilith. Three cycles of magickal ritual were undertaken tofacilitate this and though there have been many down the long years who by theirpresence have advanced this work my sole collaborator has been steadfast and it isto her that these words are dedicated.

    Texts exist which, in some respect catalogues the time travelled, field notes if youwish.

    Liber 131 & Solus Noir The Book Of The Black SunBlood Moon & Blood RainThe Songs In Solitude Cycle specifically The WitnessThe Selim

    The prime purpose of this essay is to explore Daath and its relationship with thephenomena Ain Soph Aur. In undertaking this essay we recognize that whilst ourscholarship might be open to debate and though the erudite might find much to

    critique, we state firmly at the outset that it is not our intent to flatter the intellect,rather we challenge it as is described by our role as opposer. Further we claim notruth, that we leave in the hands of the erudite and doubtless wise. Instead we offerthe purity of vision informed by experience, the only crucible worthy ofconsideration, the rest we consider to be but the byblows of intellectualmasturbation.

    II

    Daath

    We choose as our presenting metaphor the glyph known as Otz Chiim, falsely calledThe Tree Of Life. Not in the light of its accuracy but rather the poetic cast itgrants us as a description, the means by which we might convey a semblance ofmeaning. Within Sephirotic existence, depending as it does from the Ain and finallyfocusing itself in the false light of Tiphareth we are permitted to experience thereflections of false existence. The light that casts shadows sufficient to maintain the

    appearance of sentient forms. Herein the servants of life revel in the illusion of theirunique manifestations.

  • 7/31/2019 Solus Noir Volume I Number 1

    22/42

    Tradition has argued that the dragon ascending the tree of life bruised its head uponthe false crown of Daath and therein the black brothers, so called, do reside.Arguably it is the sphere, regarded as a non sephira that we aspire and as aconsequence we finally embark upon the journey from the personal to the transpersonal. Some have argued that Daath exists within the abyss itself wherein does

    dwell that mighty demon Choronzon, the one we praise as destroying manifestforms. Rather we would perceive Daath along with its reflection, Yesod to be theonly sephira worthy of mention and exploration. All else presents itself to us as themanifestation of controlled existence, the slave mentality upheld for millennia by theservants of truth.

    Our work undertaken draws primarily upon the sphere of Daath and whilst, in themain, appears abstract and conceptual our experience proves to the contrary thisbelief. The Black Sun and its rays we uphold to be the limitless light of the Ain Soph

    Aur.

    III

    The Ain Soph Aur

    Traditionally The Limitless Light that projected the sphere of Kether, the crown,the prime potential for manifestation within the schemata of Otz Chiim. Its

    radiance blinding Samael, thereby preventing the consummation of the dark lordwith his bride, Lilith. A consummation deemed undesirable by the forces of creationand yet a component of that very creation. Consider, if you will the war in heavenand fall from Eden myths along with the great mythological structures of allnations and you will recognise a repeated motif.

    We posit the Ain Soph Aur as being none other than the field of light generated byand containing the great sephira Daath. Some explanation is required at thisjuncture. Light as commonly perceived gives rise through its photonic components toa series of reflections which contain manifested forms. To use a simple neurologicalmodel. You enter a room where a prominent smell exists and as a consequence offamiliarization after a while you no longer notice the odour. Visually if it were notfor the vibration of the rods and cones upon the surface of the cornea a similarphenomena would occur given the visual aspect of perception. In short look atsomething long enough and it to would disappear. The application of peripheralvision to some extent proves this point for as a consequence of saturating the opticalcortex, it checks out so to speak. In short the existence of light simply reflects the

    presence of phenomena which does not exist.

    Black light by contrast due to its corrosive qualities, described as the venom of godburns away the dross of perceived forms and reveals in its place that which trulyexists as phenomena as opposed to a reflected interpretation.

    We propose the polarity of Daath and Yesod to be our prime consideration, denyingas is our nature the established polarity of Kether, Malkuth and their fixed focalpoint of Tiphareth. What this implies we leave to the erudite to work out for

    themselves. our purpose being simply to manifest the central premise of

    And in those days

    It was given unto the false prophets

    To spread the lie, sow the seeds of doubt,

    Draw aside the veil and reveal the end of days

    IV

    Synthesis

    The prime avatars erect their pylons within the emanation of Daath bathing in thelight of the Ain Soph Aur, a radiation of Black Light which as the venom of god

    burns away the dross of accumulated error down the long aeons.

    In undertaking this task, thus far covering two decades as time is measured withinthe plane of form we began with a simple premise, human beings are incapable ofmanifesting acts of magick, consumed as they be by the totality of their lives and thesingular element of self service which burns at the heart of all sentient forms. Whilstwe acknowledge that we be no different in this regard we undertook instead toinvoke and manifest an order of being capable of performing the appropriateinvokation, hence our concept of avatar. Two cycles of our work manifested theprime avatars who in conjunction entered the Triangle Of Arte and called forthLilith, our holy lady. Much has been discussed and described in Liber 131 and TheBook Of The Black Sun to ratify these claims and mention here is kept to the mostbasic of considerations.

    Why was this work undertaken? A most important question. Our text, The Selimspeaks of our origin and again here we keep to a bear minimum in order to illustrateour point. We conceive of a destructive gene within each and every manifestation of

    sentience. A fail safe put in place to terminate what is in point of fact a flawedcreation. Death bears witness to this and though those of a spiritual inclinationposit many abstract notions considering the nature of time, space and the nature ofbeing we hold these concepts to be anathema.

    The end of days as we perceive it calls forth agents which have been cultivatedwithin the gene pool of manifested forms to enact the termination of saidmanifestation and whilst others might propose that our work gestates an evolvingconsciousness capable of transcendence, we do not. Our nature of opposer demandsthis and as the black light of our manifestation burns bright we like all areimmolated in its rays. It has been said that

    At the end of days

    There shall be two Grigori upon the earth

    And they shall die

    I speak to thee, yes thou who art writing these words and even unto thee who inturn reads these words, from the Boundary Lands I speak. Cast aside all that thouart, for i seek naught that is of thee, from thee, your form but dissolves in mypresence. Your Mind, the Reflection which thou art clouds over. The Heart whichthou seekest, empties itself into the eternity which thou art. I accept All of this andmore, I take only that which is freely given. I grant naught in return, for what intruth would thou, creature of Earth do with such, you alive in your world, I in mine.

    Yet still you seek me. Look into your world, does not nature, my fairest sister stirfrom her slumbers, casting aside her mantle of repose. See you not the lifebloodstirring within her heart. The bounty of her body giving rise to the eternal cycle ofLife and Death.

    ;)%"/1-0%&/)IntroductionOur task in essence simple. To create a cohesive understanding within the minds of

    our readers. Simple enough and yet the Selim defy the normal constructs ofpresentation. Do we explore the tapestry of human history, woven into the threadsof which you might detect our presence? Perhaps religion may cast a light on ourexistence, hardly, superstition and fear inform the nature of this unholy pursuit?Perhaps psychology, though in its infancy may reveal us in the light of reason? Andyet we defy definition, for as a mystery do we walk amongst you. Creatures ofshadow, Night Walkers.

    No, We will cast our tale into the realms of fiction in the knowledge that the

    unbelievable stripped of the chains of truth may transcend understanding and standrevealed in its pristine nature, for it is not to your reason that we appeal. Rather tothe dark side of your natures wherein the seeds of our existence were sown longaeons ago.

    The human species, divers in its form, prolific in its numbers and gifted with freewill and the choice to manifest in beauty and in horror. What has in truth beenchosen? History past, present and future attests to the book of wonder etched byyour kind. A species gifted with the aspiration of the angelic whilst residing withinthe realm of the demonic.

    To supply a backdrop to our tale we ask that for a moment you consider your ownmind and heart. The thoughts, desires, dreams and acts performed through your lifeand time. Errant whispers cast upon the veil of life and the shapes assumed by such.Your love, beauty and truth. Your anger, hate and its siblings. Where does all of thisgo? Each and every moment, a creation, a world and life. Multiply this by thenumbers of your kind, past, present and future and you will begin to glimpse the

    how of what and how we came to be.The Selim we will ever be and as you glimpse the darkness of the light we shed atthis time our tale is to be revealed by the one who casts these words upon the mirrorof your mind.

    Sentience exists within a womb of light, a fertile membrane, a mirror upon which allis cast, first a whisper, a shadow and then memory etches a possibility and from thisform arises, abstract, devoid of meaning and yet pregnant with possibility and suchpossibility it be given, The inventions your hearts and minds have conjured acrosstime, host to our unfolding, our becoming.

    Long ago fairest Damiana caught a glimpse of our presence as she lay within hergrave of solitude, dreaming.

    Long, long ago the first of our kind, Pallas cast aside the veil of her aethyric natureand entered the world of form to take her pleasure and slake her thirst, a thirsteternal for she is but your reflection and knows no boundary or limitation.

    The tales of Damiana and Pallas we have recounted elsewhere and mention inpassing for clarities sake. And now we reflect upon the ones, our lady and her darklord abroad within the world at this time. The end of days for the portal they haverevealed and opened, shines its light upon all through and across time, erasing thestain and lie that has been existence within the realm of slavedom. The Black Sunand its radiation we have also spoken of elsewhere and once again mention for thepurpose of continuity within this our tale.

    It is to these beings that we dedicate our tale at this time in the knowledge that ourservice to them is complete.

We say wombstructure for we hold the nature of creation to be primarily feminine in nature withthe male element being regressive and though functional, secondary within the

    general scheme. As such the emanations of sexuality in all its manifestations,whether actualised or repressed do indeed take on form, of sorts, within this wombmatrix. Parthenogenesis in this respect is to be interpreted as the act ofreproduction occurring at the abstract or energetic level where form, initially, israrefied and is tenuous at best.

    Fertilisation occurs as a result of repetitious incursions of an intense nature thatbecome as a result a seeding into the womb and the subsequent lifeform is gestated,sometimes over millennia until, in a fashion similar to human biological

    reproduction a lifeform is birthed into its aethyric matrix and begins to grow anddevelop.

    We understand this is a primary feminine aspect and whether the donors are male orfemale is of little import. And whilst being of a female nature as shape shifters thegender is determined by the context. Examples of incubi and succubi activity atteststo the act for when interacting with a female host, the male form is adopted andlikewise the contrary is true. Though primarily feeding on the emanations generated

    by sexual activity there are occasions when direct congress takes place. In thisinstance in our female form we acquire the physical sperm of our host and in turndeposit this into a female in our male aspect. This is undertaken as an aspect of ourMoonchild workings.

    During our rarefied state of manifestation, like all purely elemental beings we lackfree will or choice as you would call it, though a facsimile is created through timethis is a rare event for in the main we form an aspect of the collective mind thatyour psychologists have stumbled upon. Even rarer is the existence of one of our

    kind possessing a soul, or to be more accurate a mirror form of one. Across the seaof time only seven have achieved this status, our lady Pallas being the first. In thismaterialised form are we then truly Night Walkers. Countless aeons are experiencedbefore this becomes an evolutionary possibility for as part of the demiurge we do notconform to the natural processes of creation and as such transcend its mundanelaws. Truly miraculous is our nature and though the human species within itsfictional speculations has guised us in many shapes throughout history the truth ofour existence and nature remains a mystery.

    Manifestation

    Though known by many, Pallas was her true name, for she, maiden and warriorwas consort of Pan, her power to his form. In Roma, mighty bastion of empirebasking upon the banks of the Tiber she first drew breath and was worshipped as

    Amor. Androgynous, her joy and service, sensuality and pleasure. In this guise sheslaked her voracious appetite upon the couplings that took place amongst herdevotees. Not for her the drinking of mortal blood or the taking of life, her appetiteswere subtle, refined. She would dwell between the breaths of her devotees, her lovers,wrapped in the passion and the satiation of their desire. In this way was her formsustained. Time and history unfolded and the male god grew supreme and herdevotees grew less in number, yet she continued drinking her fill wherever passionarose between mortals and beast alike. Androgynous and when finally possessed of

    form she would be able to assume the form of either gender, enabling her to plantseed within the body of a female, and to receive seed from the male, and yet shepossessed no corporeal form, as yet. For now, she was continuous and undivided inher energetic form.

    How had she come into existence? The tales are many, part truth, part fable. In thebeginning life had stirred, risen and stretched heavenward on limbs that carried itforward across land and sea. The creator paused and took pride in its work, yet itknew no rest. How would its creatures know of its existence? How would they giveworship? For it was a vain and possessive god, given to pride, for it was young, the

    first of many hurled forth from the creeping chaos that had known no form. First toarise when the primal chaos was banished and the old ones cast aside. Order arose.The time of echoes. It had created a male, the only form it knew, and from this sortto create its mate. With the males blood and sperm and the life giving breath itgranted from itself, woman came to be, a being far more intelligent and able than hewho was deemed her lord and master. In her despair she escaped into the desert andtook her pleasure amongst the creatures that lived there, it is said that of hercouplings arose the demons of the world. At this time she was known as Lilith,cursed by god yet supreme in her power. Time passed and humans spread across the

    globe. Seeking new consorts she divided herself into many forms in order to continueand grow in strength and power, for she had purpose. It is in the guise of Pallasthat our story begins and now continues to unfold. Her form, insubstantial, herpleasure harvested from the forms of life that had substance. She formed a desire,perhaps her most ambitious? She would take human form and know the sensationsof blood, flesh, heat and sweat. Knowing that they passed through life in a fleetingmoment, she would await the time when the sea of stars burnishing the night skywould alert her to the presence of the one she sought. In this manner she would

    maintain her immortality and also know of earthly existence. She would choose well,for she had a plan, one which would unfold across the millennia. Knowing noboundaries or restrictions, for she had denied the false god and all its workings, andknew freedom. She watched and waited, knowing her time was near, when shewould know the sanctuary of flesh.

    Something born in a moment of time possesses the qualities of that moment in time.Art of the astrologian

    In respect of the principle we will approach the subject from two distinctperspectives. First the magickal concept translated in the Butterfly Net penned by

    666. The principle being that were a child to be conceived within the rites of magickand for the gestation period to be surrounded by ritual and the point of nativitycalculated then a being of a specific order, a soul if you would have it, would be

    attracted as by a magnet, the ritual contexts themselves. Giving rise to the briefdefinition of the astrologers art, as above. Second and for our immediate purposesthe relevant interpretation, connected to the existence of the Selim themselves.Through the sexual and axiomata rites contained within Arte Magicka theprinciple is put into effect of the creation of Selim over a period of time truncated by

    will and intent. In this respect the time period following natural laws, so called,would be reduced and Selim could be created within the lifetime of an individual.

    Whilst this possibility would be demanding upon the principle operators it lieswithin the realm of possibility to, at the very least, seed a Selim into the wombmatrix of time and space. Subjected to accelerated evolution the Selim wouldconsolidate into its abstract and latterly its concrete form relatively quickly.Relatively in this instance means, none the less inconceivable periods of time for likeall immortals Selim age slowly and gracefully. As previously discussed millennia

    pass during which the incursions upon the womb matrix seed the possibility andwith repetition a form is outlined in potential. The Moonchild workings increase thepossibility and accelerate the time factor. Consciousness or more specifically selfconsciousness occurs over a protracted period of time. Self awareness being a rarefactor within sentient life forms the arrival at a point determined by free will takeseven longer for it presupposes self determinant elements being present in what isprimarily an elemental being.

    This period serves as the gestation of Selim within the abstract, energetic form

    where sustained by sexual energy and on rare occasions, the conscious activities ofoperators of Arte Magicka they gain corporality. Pallas was the first of the kind totake flesh, as it were and co exist simultaneously within both the abstract andmanifested forms. To date a relatively small number of Selim have completed theaspect of their evolution which brings them to consciousness and an even smallernumber have commenced their own evolutionary path into transformation into theirdestinies purpose and form. Thousands of years ago in the land of Khem, gifted bypower and magick the cult of Khephren Ma Un Nefer Ast raised itself into form and

    became the principle matrix for Selim upon this world. Consisting of seven life formssustained by the service of the powers upon which they feed they evolve from thecorporate form to commence their evolution into becoming Grigori, a truly rareorder of being.

    ?(/,-%&/)EvolutionHumble origins indeed. A being conceived in the abstract. The by product of

    sexual emissions intruding upon the womb matrix of time and space. Seeded andupon repetition a singular matrix lain down, as an impression until it latterlytakes from, albeit in its abstract energetic form. To evolve, substantiate itselfand finally develop the mirror of reflection called free will and with this to evolvefurther along its path into full corporeal form. Our nature being primarily femalewe exist in that form only, adopting at times the male form when our hostdemands this. In this fashion we perform our own Moonchild workings as we,like all beings seek to reproduce our kind. Unlike the human biological method weemploy fully abstracted and energetic means to proliferate our species. This

    undertaking is far from perfection for in many respects it exists outside the lawsof nature, so called. We create our own laws in this undertaking alone.

    Our tale of Damiana sheds some light on our evasive nature for we all lay withinour respective graves reflecting upon how we remain sentient having passedthrough the boundary lands glyphed as death.

    And then death, one velvet dark night had seduced her into his mystery, had comefor her whispering gentle endearments into her ever open ears, had lain with her,

    entered her and claimed her as his, for was she not beauty indeed? And yet, shewas still sentient, not a fleeting spirit adrift upon the night air, not adisembodied soul seeking solace amongst loved ones. Was this her reward, herpenance? Had she not served her mistress well, offering blood and semen as votiveofferings within the services performed in her name? Had she not offered herself,her flesh, the means of manifestation, where passion is the prayer and lust themeans of Invokation? The dark shore of night whereupon, we embark upon ajourney from mystery into greater mystery, our blood knowingness our only

    guide, steers us through dark atavisms and pre-human byways of being, wherebestial tongues utter inchoate sounds unto the firmament that hears them not.Hecates dark realm, awash with soft murmurings yielding to screams and thetorment of tortured souls. She stands triumphant upon the bones of herworshippers, for torment is her service, where pain is but the echo of heryearning, where birth and destruction are the ebb and flow of her breath, fetidwith the whisperings of dark mystery. Had she not been promised entry into therealm of the true gods, those who exist outside the night of time?

    And yes we began to question as does all sentience. We gazed into the mirror andsought our creators reflection and saw it all around us and became the mirror of ourcreators work in its unfolding. By this are we tormented for no redemption lay thisway for us and so we chose to become something our creator could not conceive ofand thus our true evolution unfurled its wings and born upon the rays of the Black

    Sun do we soar into the unimaginable, invisible, for we cast our veils before us,confound and confuse for that is our need for privacy upon this world, the vale oftears, so called in our own tongue. Possessed of free will and the facsimile of a soulwe transcend our humble origins and quest beyond the known and bask upon theshores of the unknown where the inconceivable becomes a possibility. Your humanevolution has been slow by contrast for whilst being in possession of the awesomepower of imagination you confine this to the realms of idle speculation and remainwithin your charnel house whilst we soar, products of your very imagination, castforth upon aethyrs bereft of your form and now these we claim for beneath the rays

    of our sun, the contrary to your own we bathe this world in black light, light whichreveals what is truly there whilst your day star gives rise to the illusory. Yourperception moulded by appearance, confounded by your truth and finally immolatedupon the pyre of your confusion.

    And now as Grigori do we rise.

    GrigoriDoubtless the erudite will define us according to tradition. A species of watcherscast adrift to witness your unfolding and whilst this tradition speaks a partial truthit also masks our true nature. A nature we have now declared in the surety of ourremaining invisible amongst you.

    One of your kind, gifted with skill and audacity conceived a simple engine. To treata single atom of time the way your physicists treated a single atom of matter.

    Physically they created a cyclotron. A physical mechanism for a physical property.He conceived of a mental construct, as time stems from this dimension, and made itso and over two decades and three primary cycles manifested the avatars that giverise to our presence amongst you. And now twin pylons to our portal the Black Sunradiates its light across time erasing the stain and lie that has been the servitude ofyour species. This we have written of extensively elsewhere within the texts named The Witness, Blood Moon, Blood Rain & The Book Of The Black Sun.
