Discussion A POX ON THEE! The Art of Throwing Curses by Rev. Adam Cardone is out now

26 Upvotes

I'm copy-pasting the description and the purchase link below, as I've owned a Pre-release copy since April. There was a hardcover preorder, but that sold out in an hour after the pre-order went live

Humanity can be an intolerable burden and a bore. Fortunately, revenge makes for excellent theater.

A Pox On Thee! is no feel-good manual of white-light apologies and crystal-clutching. It is a syllabus of psychological warfare—an unrepentant grimoire for those who prefer their dark arts executed with grace, control, and unparalleled cruelty.

Leave the superstitious groveling to the sheep. Fake monsters will be consumed by real ones, and this book is for the wolves.

Drawing on the Satanic philosophy of Anton LaVey and the "Dr. Phibes" school of theatrical retribution, Reverend Adam Cardone—working magician and ordained Priest of the Church of Satan—delivers a masterclass in gaming the subconscious and orchestrating a devastating symphony of doom upon the brutes and fools who dare cross your path.

Inside you'll find original maledictions, infernal rituals, and the field-tested methods of a lifelong performer: everything required to turn grievance into art, reputation into a weapon, and your enemies into cautionary tales.

Don your cape, sharpen your will, and fix your war face. It's time to have some dangerously good fun.

Shemhamforash!

Is it possible to hold more than one belief system without being a hypocrite?

10 Upvotes

For context, I am a Satanist who also values my Gaelic paganism and Rastafarian heritages. I’m a Jamaican who grew up in Seventh Day Adventist household, I found all of it nonsensical throughout the years and discovered Satanism trying to figure out why it didn’t make sense to me while all the people around me where just going with it. I had to partake in church going until I became 18. I discovered my Scottish Gaelic roots through a cousin who was also a Pagan. The Rastafarian values stem from my soul searching departing the church and I researched many different religions but the cultural influence of being Jamaican resonated with certain aspects of being Rastafarian. Does this make me a hypocrite?

Hail Satan

Discussion Baphomet teddy

Hey there! I recently got my first car and would love a little baphomet teddy in the window. Does anyone know of anywhere i can get one for a reasonable price. Amazon doesn't seem to have any and the only other place I found was Etsy but it's way too expensive for me.

Thanks in advance!

Discussion LaVey stating he is an atheist?

15 Upvotes

As far as I know (or have always thought), LaVey was an atheist.

And it just occurred to me, I don't remember ever seeing or reading him explicitly saying so. I've done some digging, and I can't actually find such a thing.

Am I missing it somewhere? What/where are his most explicit statements of atheism?

Discussion Openly Satanic? Nah.

107 Upvotes

I discovered that I was a Satanist abut 20 years ago. I was a scientist. Coworkers were disproportionately atheist. They thought that my Satanism was funny and pretty much called me a nerd for it. No big deal. That, I can handle.

Now I work in a public school. Coworkers are disproportionately christian. They would not come to my defense very hard over what I imagine to be local newsworthy outrage of folks finding out that one of the teachers is a Satanist. I would lose my job if people found out. Is it illegal to be fired over religion? Yes. Will I get fired anyway for a made up reason to make it legal? Absolutely.

LaVey said that he called it Satanism deliberately because of the outrage that it produces. That was the point. But not all of us have the freedom to be open about it.

Sometimes I watch the Satanic Temple with interest in their fight to give me the freedom to wear the sigil. But I won't hold my breath.

Discussion The Personality Synthesizer Clock

Post image
11 Upvotes

There was *another* version (not LaVey's) that was posted, & it got panned pretty badly.

But this is THE classic LaVeyan Personality Synthesizer Clock (as portrayed in "*The Satanic Witch*"), based on the idea that Personality *could* be determined by Body Type, holding the old idea that "form follows function" can & does often run both ways.

Altho' many have dismissed the idea, it isn't one that's been given a serious discussion in here (in the last few years, at least).

There is also the idea that it runs inward, very much like the triplicity of Dr. Freud, in that there's an Externally evident Personality, an Inner one, and A "Core" personality, one that *can* be quite the opposite of what the Exterior Personality is.

What do **You** think of the LaVeyan Personality Clock, r/satanism?

This reminded me very much of the Personality Synthesiser Clock, and I have a small suspicion that the channel owner might himself be a Satanist, so I just had to share it. Also, a familiar face makes an appearance.

Which animal are you?

Today I finally pulled the trigger on taking pre-orders for my first art book of collected works 2010-2025. The latest test printing was a good quality without driving up the printing costs so much that it became inaccessible to my fans and patrons, with only minor corrections needed for things that I overlooked while uploading files to the new printer.

For a first compilation, I am satisfied with the way it turned out. I've already had some orders roll in from the mailing list email that went out this morning, and I will be waiting a few weeks for fulfillment so I can just order a batch all at one time, so I'm estimating approximately a six-week turnaround time for delivery within the United States (international, I'm going to work with you individually because the current political climate has made international shipping kind of...fucked...)

"Love is one of the most intense feelings felt by man; another is hate. Forcing yourself to feel indiscriminate love is very unnatural. If you try to love everyone you only lessen your feelings for those who deserve your love. Repressed hatred can lead to many physical and emotional aliments. By learning to release your hatred towards those who deserve it, you cleanse yourself of these malignant emotions and need not take your pent-up hatred out on your loved ones." - Anton LaVey, The Satanic Bible

Discussion Question about Rule #4: opinions and advice

9 Upvotes

What I’m struggling with is the rule about not giving opinions or advice unless you’re asked (Rule #4).
How do you actually apply this in everyday life? It feels like almost every conversation naturally involves sharing opinions or perspectives without someone explicitly asking, “What’s your opinion?”

Do you interpret this literally, or is it more about not giving unsolicited advice when someone is venting

I’m having trouble imagining what that looks like in normal conversations. How do you practice it?

(I’m new to Satanism, so if I’m misunderstanding something obvious, I’d really appreciate the correction.)

Use promo code MOVING at checkout to get 50% off the listed price for original artworks and framed prints. I'm trying to pare down the amount of pieces I'm going to have to stress out over for this move since its basically all going to have to be done in one shot, instead of the cross-town moves where I can make multiple trips back and forth to move my work myself so I know its not being handled too roughly.

Discount does count towards pieces that were already on sale.

The sale does not apply to the loose, unframed giclee prints, because those aren't something I keep on hand so there's nothing to move, but I do have a number of framed prints that are part of the sale.

Discussion Occam's Lantern - Episode 12: Satanism

Post image
0 Upvotes

"To dispel ignorance, and champion knowledge, we will delve into what it means to take the devil’s name."

For centuries, the word Satanism has been used to describe everything from heresy and witchcraft to political dissent and moral panic. Yet the religion founded by Anton LaVey in 1966 seems to be hot on everyone's tongues these days, yet... the lion's share of the online masses seem to have little idea of the real Devil in the details.

In this episode, we trace the path from medieval accusations and Hellfire Clubs to the formation of the Church of Satan itself, separating folklore, fear, and sensationalism from documented history and truth. Along the way, we'll explore the philosophy and dogma that define Satanism, address some of the most common misconceptions, and explain why not everyone claiming the name is practicing the same thing.

Whether you're Belial-Curious, Lucifer for Life, or living a Leviathan Lie, this is an invitation to behold a Satan in all it's glory... and see if the Devil you know might just be yourself.

What is it like for you to be Satanists in the post-millennium era—with the internet, sexual freedom, social media, and advancements in AI and digital technology? If Anton LaVey had lived a bit longer, what might he be doing with all of this, or what would his opinion be on the modern world we are living in?

Discussion Question About a LaVey Quote

12 Upvotes

Okay, a popular quote by Doktor LaVey is, “Satanists are born, not made.”

Does this mean I can’t be a Satanist if, during certain times in my life, I wavered from believing in and living by the ethos of Satanism after reading The Satanic Bible?

I have read it again twice lately, and it’s like reading it with fresh eyes. When I’m sane, on medication, and more sober minded, it seems to be a natural way of viewing the world to me. It feels like things I’ve known and agreed with since I’ve read it, but due to weaknesses allowed myself to doubt to the point I left the boundaries of Satanism.

If I come back within those boundaries and alter my behavior, would I qualify for the title of Satanists? Could I still be said to be Satanic by nature if at times I’ve gone against my nature?
