  YOMIEL ‘Ιωμειή, YAMM’EL Υαμμελ, Fallen Angel with Authority Over the Sea

  Yomiel , Yom’el, Yamm’el, Yomyael, or Jômjâêl is the 19th Watcher whose name translates ‘Day of El’ (as Yomiel) and as Yamm’el translates ‘Sea of El’. Yomiel is in this context associated with the Hellenistic Poseidon (in Berytus, Baal-Berit and in medieval demonology Berith) and the Canaanite Yam. The Sea represents to the individual the unconscious and chaos embodied passions and lusts, also for favorable travel on water.

  The Aramaic spelling of Yomiel isןימי לא.

  Yomiel as personified as ‘Day of El’ and ‘Sea of El’ represents a syncretic union of the primal passions and instincts provide an encircling, primal power that is controlled and directed up through the Luciferian to empower the struggle to conquer and manifest desires in the day or daily life.

  THE NEPHILIM

  The Hebrew spelling of Nephilim is םיִליִפְנ. The Hebrew word for the Rephaim is spelledםיאפר. Gibborim in Hebrew is spelled רוֹבִּגּ רֹבִּגּ, gibbor. Whether called Nephilim,

  Rephaim, Gibborim or simply Giants they are Titans in statue and force of will. The term Gibborim translates ‘brave’ and ‘mighty’ indicating that while living they are mighty warriors and heroes of the ancient world.

  The Nephilim were the offspring of the “Sons of God” (Watchers) and “Daughters of Man”, before the biblical flood of Genesis. After the flood, some of the Nephilim existed as evil spirits, immortal upon the earth and demonic in nature. In Numbers 13:3 some of the living Nephilim ruled in Canaan at the time of the Hebrew conquest. They are described: “These were the heroes that were of old, warriors of renown” in Genesis 6: 1-4 in the New Revised Standard Edition.

  Their birth and maturity is presented in Enoch VI-XI: “And all the others together with them (Watchers) took unto themselves wives, and each chose for himself one, and they began to go in unto them and defile themselves with them. And they taught them charms and enchantments, and the cuttings of roots, and made them acquainted with plants. And they became pregnant, and they bare great giants, whose height was three thousand ells: Who consumed all the acquisitions of men. And when men could no longer sustain them. The giants turned against them and devoured mankind. And they began to sin against birds, and beasts, and reptiles, and fish, and to devour one another's flesh, and drink the blood. Then the earth laid accusation against the lawless ones.”

  In the Book of Enoch, the Nephilim are described: “the giants, who are produced from the spirits and flesh, shall be called evil spirits upon the earth, and on the earth shall be their dwelling. Evil spirits have proceeded from their bodies; because they are born from men and the from the holy Watchers is their beginning and primal origin; they shall be evil spirits on earth and evil spirits shall they be called. As for the spirits of heaven, in heaven shall be their dwelling, but as for the spirits of the earth which were born upon the earth, on the earth shall be their dwelling.” -Enoch XV

  The Nephilim in their power are a symbol of Apotheosis: “And the spirits of the giants afflict, oppress, destroy, attack, do battle, and work destruction on the earth, and cause trouble, they take no food but nethertheless hunger and thirst, and cause offences. And these spirits shall rise up against the children of men and against the women, because they proceeded from them.”

  – Enoch XV

  In the 6th Century AD work “The Conflict of Adam and Eve with Satan”, the Watchers joined with the Daughters of Cain to beget the Nephilim.

  “Certain wise men of old wrote concerning them, and say in their [sacred] books, that angels came down from heaven, and mingled with the daughters of Cain, who bare unto them these giants. But these [wise men] err in what they say. God forbid such a thing, that angels who are spirits, should be found committing sin with human beings. Never, that cannot be. And if such a thing were of the nature of angels, or satans, that fell, they would not leave one woman on earth, undefiled ... But many men say, that angels came down from heaven, and joined themselves to women, and had children by them. This cannot be true. But they were children of Seth, who were of the children of Adam, that dwelt on the mountain, high up, while they preserved their virginity, their innocence and their glory like angels; and were then called 'angels of God.' But when they transgressed and mingled with the children of Cain, and begat children, ill-informed men said, that angels had come down from heaven, and mingled with the daughters of men, who bear them giants.”

  The Daughters of Cain were paired with the Watchers, who instructed and taught them spells and charms, then showing them the witch-lore of the green earth. The lore and cutting of roots and trees, to heal and curse, to inspire and guide into the realm of sleep.

  Soon, the Daughters of Men became pregnant and bore large Giants, called Nephilim. The Nephilim were like the Babylonian Sebitti or Udug-hul, spawned of the union of heaven and earth, gods incarnate and conquerors upon their paths in life. The lesser men were unable to sustain the passions and hungers of the Nephilim, who became great hunters.

  The Nephilim were warlike and battled not only each other at times, but other humans as well. They were the ancient heroes of the Greek and Canaanite myths, later Deified Dead. The Nephilim, with their unique demonic nature of being both flesh and spirit, survived physical death and from their bodies came forth evil spirits who were immortal.

  The Giants were as the Titans of the Greek world, they were warriors and witches, conquering leaders and kings of tribes. Soon many of them, their predatory natures caused them to begin to devour men and with great hunger, devouring one another’s flesh and drinking their blood. The Nephilim were the Lawless Ones, the primal instinct would bring their passions to the forefront.

  The Luciferian Spirit shining darkly in each Gibborim and those of Witch Blood are not bound by religious morals, laws or the self-reducing submission of dogmatic blind-faith.

  It is because of this alone that Judeo-Christians will not be able to understand or relate to the philosophy of Luciferianism. The Nephilim are a mirror of who we are as predators in this world. The Nephilim thirsted for the life which was in the blood, which enhances and elevates the predator to greater levels of insight and power. The cults of Yahweh condemned the draining of life force, or the symbolic blood as it also caused the brain by the way of red meat, to develop and grow. If humans were to grow intelligent, they would have no need of Yahweh or the monotheistic religions keeping the mind in chains.

  To drink the blood is symbolic of devouring and dominating life which exists outside the self. In Hebrew law according to Yahweh, drinking the blood was an evil taboo, forbidden to anyone. The symbolism of blood-drinking to the ancient Hebrews was the substance in which the spirit or soul existed, to devour it is to consume the spirit. During the Roman period, the legend of Jesus depicts his symbolic instructions for his followers to drink his blood and eat his flesh, something the Nephilim were damned for earlier.

  The path of the Luciferian is one created by the selfdetermination and Daemonic inspiration as a unique expression of the Adversarial Current. The Nephilim are both Vampyric and Cannibalistic in the symbolic sense of dominating and over-mastering their rivals or prey. This is the core of
a god or demon, the very foundation of philosophy inherent in the Luciferian’s core being. Luciferians in the lore and symbol of the Nephilim, seek to balance the predatory instinct with a guided, creative and beneficial discipline in life.

  In the Book of Giants, Nephilim are identified by name in this Qumran fragmentary text. Semiyaza has two sons, Ohya and Hahya. The giant Mahway, named the son of the Watcher Baraqiel, is visited by a dream bearing an omen-message in which he sees a tablet being immersed in water. When it emerges all the names but three have been washed away and removed. Mahway tells his fellow Nephilim about the dream including the Mesopotamian Deified Hero Gilgamesh.

  SIRENS: LILITHS AND OWL-SPIRITS The Lore of The Wives of The Watchers

  The myth of the Seirenes (Sirens) of ancient Greece have close associations with the class of Mesopotamian WindDemons The women who lay with the Watchers and bore the Nephilim were given great depths of knowledge, learning the magickial arts and the secrets of power. In the Book of Enoch, these women did not die but became Sirens to prey upon man. Within the myth of Enoch, some of the Watchers are imprisoned in the dark underworld depths yet the Evil Spirits of the Nephilim could haunt the earth indefinitely.

  In the Greek tradition of Enoch, the wives of the Fallen Angels became Sirens. In Greek mythology, Sirens are predatory sea-demons who enchant with their beautiful songs and cause the death of sailors. The Seirenes are described in the Odyssey as "lolling there in their meadow, round them heaps of corpses rotting away, rags of skin shriveling on their bones.” These seductive predators in later Greek myths are associated with devouring their male prey.

  The depictions of the Sirens are nearly identical to those of Mesopotamian Lil (Wind and Night) Demons. Lilit, known later as Lilith, is specifically a demon which is associated with death and desolate places. Lilit is the Hebrew form of the earlier Akkadian Lilitu, a class of vampire-demons from the family of Lamastu. The Sirens are depicted as half-woman and half-bird, with talons like the descriptions of the winged Lilitudemons from Babylonian lore.

  Qlippothic Infernal Succubi and Brides of the Archangel Samael Agrat bat Mahlat תלחמ תב תרגא

  One of the Four Angels of Prostitution, her name means ‘Agrat, daughter of Mahlat’. In the Rabbinic Yalkut Hadash, Agrat is a ‘dancing roof-demon’ who haunts the air upon her chariot on the eves of Wednesday and Saturday, commanding eighteen Angels of Spiritual Destruction. She dances seductively while her mother, Lilith howls. In addition, Agrat is ‘The Mistress of Sorceresses’ who taught Magick to Amemar, a Jewish sage.

  Naamah הָמֲﬠַנ

  Naamah is one of the brides of Samael who breeds demonic offspring along with Lilith known as “Plagues of Mankind” in the Zohar. Her name means ‘pleasant’.

  Eisheth Zenunim תֶשֵׁא

  Her name translates “Woman of Whoredom” and she is a Princess of the Infernal Qlippoth and bride of Samael. In the Qlippoth she is the Ruler of Sathariel, the Qlippoth of Binah. Eisheth Zenunim eats the souls of the dead and instructs on the predatory mysteries of Vampyrism. She is also known as “isheth zennanim" or "qodeshah”.

  Lilithתיִליִל

  The Queen of the Demons of the Night, Lilith has her origins in Sumerian, Babylonian and other Mesopotamian cultures. Her name means ‘Night Hag’, ‘Screech Owl’ and ‘Wind Demon’ and her ancient class comes from the triad of spirits under Pazuzu, king of lil-demons.

  ANGELIC DESCRIPTIONS IN PSEUDEPIGRAPHA

  From Second Temple Jewish (around the time of the revolt of the Maccabees) religious texts to early Judeo-Christian traditions were many writings associated with the Old Testament stories later edited heavily by dominant Christian organizers in the late Roman Empire. This is from which the cosmology of the Watchers and satanic archetypes find strong form in literature beginning with the Book of Enoch. The Hebrew Apocalypse of Enoch (called commonly 3 Enoch, the Hebrew Apocalypse), dated around 5th to 6th Century A.D. details the writings of R. Ishmael from Enoch on a type of astral-dreamlike journey into the realms of heaven and all associated with it.

  The structure of the palaces and heavenly hierarchy proves a fruitful mythology for the imagination of mystics. This description of Angels and Watchers provides a symbolic representation of the Watchers prior to their fall and rebellion. In Luciferianism, energy and spiritual form in this sense is protean and fluid in nature, transformation in accordance with the Will is represented in a symbolic way for the internal unification of Will, Desire, Belief in Magick.

  The Archangels known as the Watchers in this later adaptation of 1 Enoch describes the greatest 4 of them (still in heaven) as terrible, honored and noble among the other celestials. They have seventy names associated with seventy languages of the world and every name is written with a pen of flame upon the terrible crown of the exalted king. Each emits sparks and lightning and rays of splendor (Melammu) stream form with flashes of light and the brilliance with surrounds them. Seraphim are of this celestial spiritual type of being.

  The Angels is of great stature and their faces (like the Gnostic Samael/Yaltabaoth) are like lightning. Their eyes are like torches of fire; arms like burnished bronze and the roar of the voices are the sound of a multitude. They recite a song of power and with it a River of Fire rises to which the angels go into a bathe within. These angels dip their tongues and mouths seven times in the River of Fire and after don garments of “hasmal”.

  Sacred names fly forth (as sound) from the ruling throne and this cosmic structure of power is dominated by the abode of Yahweh’s so-called glorious ‘Sekinah’. The angels of the host, fiery ministers, Ophanim of Power or ‘Ophanim of Geburah’, Cherubium of Sekinah, Seraphim, ‘Erellim, Tapsarim, Cohorts of Devouring Fire, Ranks of Firebrands, Hosts of Flame, Holy Princes crowned with crowns, robed in royalty; these angels fall prostrate before this throne three times and recite: “Blessed be the name of his glorious kingdom for ever and ever16.”

  This submission and direction of magical power using “Words of Power” and tones creating vibrations of sound are the mythological foundation of this ancient cosmology of the Hebrews, thus providing details for understanding the lesserdescribed Fallen Angels and their forms.

  16 The Book of Enoch by Rabbi Ishmael the Hight Priest, see Old Testament Pseudepigrapha. In 3 Baruch (Greek Apocalypse), dated from the First to Third Century A.D. the mythological origins of the Adversary (as Satan) is found in early creation with 5 Angels who were tasked with planting the Garden of Eden by Yahweh. Satanael planted the vine and thus we find the association with Dionysos and Semyaza. Satanael planted the vine in the middle of the garden, that same which opened the eyes with the gift of knowledge and free will.

  In 2 Enoch, Monday is the day in which the fiery substance of the angelic realm along with the lighting of the Eye created the bodiless armies or ten myriad angels. Their weapons were fiery and clothes are burning flame. After this, Satanail (Satanael) was hurled from the heights, together with his angels. After this, Satanail lead the Archangels to seek his goal (according to 2 Enoch): to place his throne higher than the clouds and become equal to the power of Yahweh. After his fall, Satanail flies around the air, ceaselessly, above the Bottomless Pit or Abyss.

  QUMRAN DEMONOLOGY Nephilim become Immortal Evil Spirits and Demons

  The Mesopotamian traditions of Demonology are found in the Book of Enoch and Qumran traditions. In the Akkadian Udug-hul texts, the demons are described as ‘gods’ and are described as something more than demi-gods, being offspring of Anu (Heaven, Sky) and Ki (Earth). The parallel between the Watchers (Spirits of Heaven) and Earthly Women (Flesh) is nearly identical to the older Mesopotamian pantheon.

  The demonology of the Levant was an assimilation from ancient Babylonian, Assyrian, Sumerian, Hittite, Hellenistic and Egyptian lore, crystalized in a unique mythology later inspiring the Qlippoth of the Cabala. We will focus specifically on the Nephilim and the demonology directly associated with the Book of Enoch, beginning with the Nephilim and their liv
ing bodies and immortal spirits which are said to still haunt the earth.

  The Shedimדֵשׁ are Hebrew demons whose name is a

  loan-word from the Assyrian Sedu, generally a protective genii or demon who has the form of a giant bull-colossus, sometimes with a human head and deified crown with horns. The

  Aramaic אָדיֵשׁ spelling is also useful in protection and

  invocation spells. The Shedim are from the Assyrian stormdemons, sometimes appearing in an ox-like form and the Seven Udug-Hul, seven evil gods assumed the forms of ox-colossi and were evil demons, at times also protective genii of Assyrian palaces.

  The Se’irim, spelled also Sa'iyrריִﬠָשׂ are the “hairy

  beings” and goat-like Satyr-devils who were commanded by Azazel. The Se’irim” are described as dancing in the Wilderness, connected also to the Hellenistic Cave of Pan located on Mt. Hermon. The Se’irim are identical to the Jinn of the Arabian woods and deserts. The goat-like demon Azazel, Lord of the Steepes, is not only the ruler of the Se’irim, yet also they are connected to Lilith as a class of demons associated with the wilderness.

  Aerial Nature of Demonic Spirits

  Demonology in the Ancient Near East and with Nephilim in Enoch have similar traits and descriptions which is relevant to the Black Adept seeking Cacodaemonic Apotheosis. In the Book of Giants, the Nephilim Mahway took to the air as “whirlwinds” and he flew having the hands and wings like an eagle. This is a symbol of their angelic heritage and for the Luciferian, representing astral projection and visualization of shape-shifting.
