Who Are The Nephilim AKA Anunaki AKA Watchers (And What Do They Have To Do With St. Valentine's)? - Occult Center.Com. Every now and then some movie or TV series makes a reference to the Nephilim. Reptilian conspiracy theories also reference the Anunaki. Today, on St. Valentine's day I thought would be the best occasion to make a post explaining quickly all about Nephilim, Nephlim, Anakim, Anunaki and what do they all have to do with the St. Valentine's day. Hebrew Torah mentions "Nephilim" twice (Genesis 6.1 and Numbers 13:33). This Hebrew word is translated as "giants" in the Bible but not much is said about them . This ancient book is referred to in "Sepher Zohar", it is mentioned by apostle Jude, and in Koran (Sura 28,20). The Love Story In this book Enoch, son of Jared, speaks about the angels called "Watchers" appointed to protect human kind.
All of them fell in love with different human women and decided to abandon haven so they could live with them. It is a historic fact that in those days people used to name their children after important or unusual event. Genesis 6,1 : It makes a great St. Devil. The Devil (from Greek: διάβολος or diábolos = slanderer or accuser)[1] is believed in many religions, myths and cultures to be a supernatural entity that is the personification of evil and the enemy of God and humankind. The nature of the role varies greatly, ranging from being an effective opposite force to the creator god, locked in an eons long struggle for human souls on what may seem even terms (to the point of dualistic ditheism/bitheism), to being a comical figure of fun or an abstract aspect of the individual human condition. While mainstream Judaism contains no overt concept of a devil, Christianity and Islam have variously regarded the Devil as a rebellious fallen angel that tempts humans to sin, if not commit evil deeds himself.
In these religions – particularly during periods of division or external threat – the Devil has assumed more of a dualistic status commonly associated with heretics, infidels, and other unbelievers. Etymology Abrahamic religions Judaism Christianity Islam. Dictionnaire Infernal. The Dictionnaire Infernal (English: Infernal Dictionary) is a book on demonology, organised in hellish hierarchies. It was written by Jacques Auguste Simon Collin de Plancy and first published in 1818.
There were several editions of the book; perhaps the most famous is the 1863 edition, which included sixty-nine illustrations by Louis Le Breton depicting the appearances of several of the demons. Many but not all of these images were later used in S. L. MacGregor Mathers's edition of The Lesser Key of Solomon. History[edit] The book was first published in 1818 and then divided into two volumes, with six reprints—and many changes—between 1818 and 1863.
A review in 1822 read: Anecdotes of the nineteenth century or stories, recent anecdotes, features and little known words, singular adventures, various quotations, compilations and curious pieces, to be used for the history of the customs and the mind of the century in which we live, compared with centuries past. List of demons[edit] Pseudomonarchia Daemonum. Pseudomonarchia Daemonum, or Hierarchy of Demons first appears as an Appendix to Johann Weyer's De praestigiis daemonum (1577).[1] The title of the book translates roughly to "false monarchy of demons". An abridgement of a grimoire similar in nature to the Ars Goetia, the first book of The Lesser Key of Solomon, it contains a list of demons, and the appropriate hours and rituals to conjure them. The book was written before The Lesser Key of Solomon, and has some differences. There are sixty-nine demons listed (instead of seventy-two), and the order of the spirits varies, as well as some of their characteristics.
The demons Vassago, Seere, Dantalion and Andromalius are not listed in this book, while Pruflas is not listed in The Lesser Key of Solomon. Pseudomonarchia Daemonum does not attribute seals to the demons, as The Lesser Key of Solomon does.[1] Weyer referred to his source manuscript as Liber officiorum spirituum, seu Liber dictus Empto. The 69 demons[edit] References[edit] Number of the Beast. Revelation 13:18[edit] 666[edit] The Number of the Beast is described in the passage of Revelation 13:15–18 and the actual number is only mentioned once, in verse 18. In the Greek manuscripts, the number is rendered in Greek numerical form as χξϛʹ,[3] or sometimes literally as ἑξακόσιοι ἑξήκοντα ἕξ, hexakósioi hexēkonta héx, "six hundred and sixty-six".[4][5] There are several interpretations-translations for the meaning of the phrase "Here is Wisdom, Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast" where the peculiar Greek word ψηφισάτω (psefisato) is used.
Possible translations include not only "to count", "to reckon" but also "to vote" or "to decide".[6] In the Textus Receptus, derived from Byzantine text-type manuscripts, the number 666 is represented by the final 3 letters χξς: In the Novum Testamentum Graece, the number is represented by the final three words, ἑξακόσιοι ἑξήκοντα ἕξ, meaning "six hundred sixty-six": 616[edit] Interpretations[edit] Here is wisdom. Nero[edit] Classification of demons. There have been various demonologies (classifications of demons) in Christian demonology and classical occultism and Renaissance magic. Classification systems are based on the nature of the demon, the sin with which they tempt people, the month in which their power was strongest, the saints that were their adversaries, or other characteristics. Classification by domain[edit] It can be noted that according to each author listed below, the domain of each demon is very different (with the exception of Francesco Maria Guazzo, who seem to have copied Michael Psellus with little difference).
It can also be seen that each author chooses and classifies demons differently. The Testament of Solomon[edit] Psellus' classification of demons[edit] Michael Psellus prepared a classification of demons in the 11th century, which was an inspiration for the classification Francesco Maria Guazzo prepared later. Spina's classification of demons[edit] Binsfeld's classification of demons[edit] First hierarchy[edit] Hell. Hell - detail from a fresco in the medieval church St. Nicolas in Raduil, Bulgaria In many mythological, folklore and religious traditions, hell is a place of eternal torment in an afterlife, often after resurrection. It is viewed by most Abrahamic traditions as a place of punishment.[1] Religions with a linear divine history often depict hells as endless. Religions with a cyclic history often depict a hell as an intermediary period between incarnations. Typically these traditions locate hell in another dimension or under the Earth's external surface and often include entrances to Hell from the land of the living.
Etymology and Germanic mythology Religion, mythology, and folklore Hell appears in several mythologies and religions. Punishments Punishment in Hell typically corresponds to sins committed during life. Polytheism Ancient Egypt Modern understanding of Egyptian notions of hell relies on six ancient texts:[16] Ancient Near East Greek Europe Asia Africa Oceania Native American Abrahamic Judaism. Theistic Satanism. The history of theistic Satanism, and assessments of its existence and prevalence in history, is obscured by it having been grounds for execution at some times in the past, and due to people having been accused of it who did not consider themselves to worship Satan, such as in the witch trials in Early Modern Europe. Most of theistic Satanism exists in relatively new models and ideologies, and many claiming to not be involved with Christianity at all.[4][5][6] Possible history of theistic Satanism[edit] The worship of Satan was a frequent charge against those charged in the witch trials in Early Modern Europe and other witch-hunts such as the Salem witch trials.
Satanism and crime[edit] John Allee, founder of the First Church of Satan,[28] equates some of the “violent fringe” of Satanism as “Devil worshipers” and “reverse Christians”. Values in theistic Satanism[edit] Self-development is important to theistic Satanists. Diversity of viewpoints within theistic Satanism[edit] Buer (demon) Classification of demons.

The Lesser Key of Solomon, also known as Clavicula Salomonis Regis[note 1] or Lemegeton, is an anonymous grimoire (or spell book) on demonology. It was compiled in the mid-17th century, mostly from materials a couple of centuries older.[1][2] It is divided into five books—the Ars Goetia, Ars Theurgia-Goetia, Ars Paulina, Ars Almadel, and Ars Notoria.[1][3] Ars Goetia[edit] The most obvious source for the Ars Goetia is Johann Weyer's Pseudomonarchia Daemonum in his De praestigiis daemonum. Weyer does not cite, and is unaware of, any other books in the Lemegeton, indicating that the Lemegeton was derived from his work, not the other way around.[1][4] The order of the spirits was changed between the two, four additional spirits were added to the later work, and one spirit (Pruflas) was omitted. This portion of the work was later translated by S. L. The Seventy-Two Demons[edit] Ars Theurgia Goetia[edit] Ars Paulina[edit] Ars Almadel[edit] Ars Notoria[edit] Editions and translations[edit]
