Gatekeepers of Hell: A Ninefold Initiatory Path

 

This initiatory system emerged spontaneously through deep, immersive work with the nine Gatekeepers of Hell: Lucifuge Rofocale, Abaddon, Baal, Azazel, Beelzebub, Amaymon, Asmodeus, Belial, and Satan. It consists of nine transformative rites—each a gateway that opens profound channels within both the cosmos and the psyche, catalysing personal and spiritual alchemy.

 

This path is designed to take you deep into the hidden recesses of the unconscious mind, facilitating union with the most primordial aspects of the self. The journey incorporates a potent blend of shamanic practices—ritual, trance journeying, channeling, and shadow divination—to forge a relationship with dark matter energy and dissolve the deepest blocks to your power, creativity, and success. Along the way, you'll receive energetic initiations to fortify your soul and prepare your field for sustained interaction with these forces.

 

The Truth About the Underworld and the Daemonic

 

In modern spiritual circles, the word “underworld” is often misunderstood—evoking fear and misconception due to the dualistic thinking prevalent in many New Age ideologies. Within Christian mythology, this realm is dubbed "Hell" and associated with evil. But this narrative distorts older, deeper truths.

 

The word Hell originates from the Norse Hel—a sanctuary of the dead, a place of rest and mystery. In Norse shamanism, Helfaring referred to the underworld journey—a sacred descent into the unconscious.

 

Creation flows through three realms: the causal plane (upperworld) holds pure potential; the formative plane (underworld) transforms potential into probability; and the physical plane manifests those probabilities into reality. The underworld is not a place of punishment—it is the birthplace of form.

 

Mastery over the underworld means taking conscious command of the unconscious. By guarding the gates of Hel, you prevent unwanted thoughts and patterns from taking root, gaining sovereignty at the source of all creation—before a problem ever materialises.
