“Dragon of the Two Flames” is one of the most anticipated Left Hand Path/Occult books which presents the origins and foundation for modern Luciferianism as defined by Michael W. Ford.

The Foundations of Two Deific Masks, Yam (Leviathan, Litan, Tunnanu), Isitu (Fire), Dabibu (Flame) and Baal-Zebub. Baal-Zebub (from Zebul-Zebub, Prince Baal, an epithet of Baal of Ugarit) is a Canaanite-Philistine God of Divination, Magick, the Heights of Spirit and the Depths of the Underworld. The ‘Lord of Flies’ is revealed in etymological origins, cultural symbolism of 'his time' and numerous accurate cult images of the Deific Mask.  a fountain of ancient power, knowledge and modern potential. This is but one Deific Mask in ‘Dragon of the Two Flames’.

The Two aspects of the Black Flame, inspiring Tunnanu are presented as aspects of initiation along with the detailed, researched and ancient descriptions of the Gods and Demons of Canaan and the lands of Moab, Philistines, Phoenicians, Hittites/Hurrians, Mari, Ebla and many others. The grimoire is a gateway and journey, from Bronze Age to Iron Age Temple Cults much older than the Yahweh cult which was at odds with surrounding cultures in the Levant. From First Century C.E. Demonology through Medieval Qabalah 'Qlippothic' Adversarial powers, the essence of Luciferianism is traced and etymologically with archeological records, temple layouts, altars and accurate illustrations of the Old Gods and Demons present 'Dragon....' as a gateway to the Gods of old who first opposed the upstart Yahweh.

“Dragon…” is a grimoire which begins with historical, mythological, authentic origins of the Pre-Christian Gods and Demons of ancient Bronze Age/Iron Age Canaan, Ammon, Moab, Philistine, Sidon, Syro-Canaanite and Northern Mesopotamian Pantheons and their meaning today in Luciferianism.  The Gods are described as ‘Deific Masks’, representations of a type of energy/power which manifests in nature and in relation to the individual; the Black Adept in an act of self-love and with the discipline towards initiation creates a foundation in which the Mind-Body-Spirit is the Temple in which the ‘Deific Mask’ manifests within.

The grimoire itself is centered on the foundation of Yam-Nahar, known by modern occultists as ‘Leviathan’, Michael W. Ford has compiled an extensive etymological, historical and magickial re-interpretation of the origins and continuation of the Seven-Headed-Dragon and the War-Gods who were eventually reduced to demons in the emergence of Christianity. Baal, Ashtoreth, Resheph the God of Pestilence, Horon the Black Magickian-God who later re-emerged as John Dee’s ‘Choronzon’, Baal-of-Peor the later Belphagor and Dagan among others. The symbolism of the old gods is presented in depth including modern adaptations of authentic rituals and invocations from temple cult records.

Necromancy and divination have authentic roots in the magick within this grimoire, identifying and invoking such Biblical-enemies such as Baal-Zebub, Baal-Peor, Kemosh, the Rephaim (Nephilim) and many others. The ancient words of power, hymns and methods of invoking are described along with the pragmatic path of luciferian self-initiation. The Demonic origins of ‘Choronzon’ are revealed in this grimoire as well based on etymological and ritual texts of old. Maps, Authentic Moabite, Ugairitc and Aramaic scripts utilized now as a powerful ‘magickial script’ for spells and workings make this grimoire one of the most forbidden and dangerous ones of the occult genre as these rites and methods of balanced and authentic. The Light of Lucifer and his ancient origins are revealed to the self-liberated Black Adept.

Christianity and the origins of Yahweh are outlined for the purpose of providing guidance and education to those seeking to self-liberation from a religion of the slave-mentality and a guilt-ridden, self-destructive society. The foundation of this grimoire is Balance between the darkness and light; each is unequivocally Luciferian and the wealth of knowledge concerning the Old Gods and Demons will provide insight into the origins of the Deific Mask we call the Adversary.
