IX/XXII\XXXIX: Autumn Equinox XXXIX Anno Satanas The Black Pope: Added High Priest Honorarium in tribute to Our Founder Anton Szandor LaVey and Our High Priest, Magus Peter H. Gilmore; Additionally, I have initiated a page tentatively entitled Infernal Magestry in honor of Our outstanding Clergy. This may also answer questions that have been posed in regards to "what 'famous', or 'infamous' individuals are or were members of The Church of Satan." These include Our representatives as well as prominant performers and artists in their particular fields of endeavor. There are however, many who remain obfuscated for their own personal reasons. So I raise a toast to Our Infernal Magestry on this Equinox, that we may continue to ascend the heights of our chosen passions, achieving excellence in all that we do. Hail The Church of Satan! HAIL SATAN. Also, there are updates at the Official Site with an Equinox Greeting from Our High Priest, the release of The Trident No.15, and a really great new quicktime movie created by Magister Paradise! HS!

Spechtreum: In the wake of Van Helsing, VLAD. From the previews, it looks to be quite an impressive film, claiming to have a "different take on the legend". Being a fantom of The Impaler, who also happens to be an Aesthetic Crystallization Inertia, this will prove to be most interesting. He looks very familiar... also noted are strains of the Francis Ford Coppolla Dracula soundtrack {I somehow doubt that this will be able to top that one, which remains one of My favorite films}, but it is quite pleasant to see him rise again...

VIII/XXI\XXXIX Spechtreum: Hellfire. VIII/XIII\XXXIX: Friday the 13th, Templar Memorial Day Happy Friday the 13th! May this day bring you great fortune and bode well with The Black Flame within. This is an excellent time to accentuate and intensify the misfortune of one's enemies {the live ones, that is}, and afflict with Murphy's Law. From personal experience, I have found such superstitious materializations such as the black cat crossing one's path as omens of good tidings, and more often than not, I experience a spot of good fortune. This day also reminds Me of a room I constructed once I labelled, "The Shadowmancy Room", where I had positioned a ladder over and around the doorway, that any who entered would automatically have to walk under it; a black cat wandering about therein, and three cracked mirrors on each wall, a pentagram in the center of the room; and the crowning glory, a number 13 inscribed outside the doorway. All to test and reveal stuporstition in people, and it had a profound effect. Even though this was on Halloween, for even in the rest of the year no-one would venture near The Noctuary as it was, but even with the promise of sweets, it still seemed too daunting for the herd. So this coming Halloween, if you are contemplating creating a Haunted House attraction, try it out. Construct a room with these specifications, that the trick or treaters may have to endure the dark psyche of their own shadow sides, that their greed and gluttony may be rewarded only by traversing this nightmarish dimension, with the candy resting in a bowl {or cauldron} in The Devil's hand only to be extracted by bending down and reaching unto His grasp. This day may also be a day of observence in memorial to The Knights Templar, or "Templar Memorial Day", being the remeberance of Joques DeMolay and the noble order being persecuted by King Phillip and Pope Clement of the day, who grew resentful and began to consider them too much of a "threat" because of their formidable wealth and political influence, which overshadowed the Pontiff's. And so they were sent to the gallows. Recommended Rite to Perform: L'Air Epais, The Ceremony of The Stifling Air; found in The Satanic Rituals by Anton Szandor LaVey. Coast to Coast with George Noory: I Am pleased to announce that in honor of this auspicious day, a piece of Artwork from The Shadow Gallery entitled "The Phantom In The Hallway" has been included on the Coast to Coast site within the Friday 13th Gallery. My thanks to Mr. Noory for this inclusion.

I also noticed that the Probot mascot resembles the Technodemon I invented as an idea of representing Satanism as the future of evolved mankind; and which William Hammock visually created for Me.

III/XXI\XXXIX: Spring Equinox Here at The Noctuary, the scent of Jasmine floats in the air as I walk through the Garden of Belial, now beginning to bloom amidst the cool breeze; fog lingers likened a thinning blanket as My little four-legged children of Satan romp thereabouts, jutting in and out of crevaces and cubbie-holes. The serpent has freshly shed and fed, the 'sacrifices' have been offered, and the black moon looms as a black hole in the darkness above. The natural balances equilibriate, and life springs forth from death, as the serpent emerging from their skin does. The kaleidoscopic colorations return once more from the black, as The Black Opal, The Jewel of Satan contains all hues within its darkness, and represents Satanism in its symmetry. Let us partake of the sumptuous treasures of The Black Earth in all of her variety, pregnant and lush with life...nectar and ambrosia-laden for The Dark Gods incarnate. May the delights of the flesh be thine to hold, as you indulge in the Sacrament of Satantric bliss. Raise high thine glasses unto Pleasure, Victory, and unto SATAN, the King of The World, aye, even unto the Universe. Map of Hell: A thurough index created for improved navigation.
