Welcome! Never had the pleasure of speaking with a legit subscriber to Anticosmic occcultism. May I ask what drew you to that specific path of Satanism?
Salutations, King.
Thank you for the welcome. While I only, vaguely,
technically fit the description of
Satanist, I utilize the label from time to time for ease in communication. I much prefer the term
Warlock or
Occultist, if I am being honest. What drew me to this path is my own personal gnosis, earned through the relationship I have with certain spirits. I am an explorer, an experimenter, not an armchair practitioner who bases their worth on how many books they have read. However, despite my growing distaste for occult literature, I end up reading snippets of it here and there as a means to verify the things I receive from spirit work. This is a valuable piece of my practice, as it ensures what I am receiving has validity. Furthermore, gaining the information before checking my sources, allows me to strike out the false, fill in the blanks and highlight what is true.
I will also specify that I am an independent, solitary Anticosmic practitioner, meaning I do not subscribe to the bulk of beliefs or dogma, associated with 218, MLO, ToBL, O9A or any other cults/orders. In my view, Anticosmic is taken literally, to mean
against the ordered system. I do not subscribe to any dogma regarding the Abrahamic
deity, nor their
messiah. Neither do I accept the system of Kabbalah, wildly popular among many western occultists, including the late Aleister Crowley. I also do not subscribe to the dogma of the
demiurge or place any negative human attributes, including the desire to imprison, on any so-called
creator god. My view of the cosmos is animistic, with the highest gods being impersonal and profoundly alien to human understanding. Likewise, the acosmic gods too are incredibly alien, better described in a manner, better suited to a novel by H. P. Lovecraft, minus the tentacles.
When I consider the cosmos, I blame no one for its original creation and while I do have distaste for those who perpetuate its order, such as Odin, I do not spend my existence, plotting revenge. This cosmos will cease, as others have ceased before it. This wheel will break, as other wheels have broken. Will this
end be
THE END? Perhaps. However, perhaps a more accurate understanding is that this age, brings
the end of ages, which can be understood as the end of
the great wheel. If this is so, the neomythos known as The Book of Revelation, will be accurate in its depiction of
paradise. The
new earth, new cosmos, will be entirely untouched by chaos. There will be no more death, no more suffering, no tears and ultimately, no change. As this world in which we live was formed over a prior world which was formed from chaos, aeons ago, the new earth and cosmos will be made anew, purely from the substance of order, long ago split from chaos. If you are curious where chaos
goes? Chaos has always been and always will be; chaos simply ceases to interact within the new cosmos.
As for the goal of my practice, it is to break from
the great wheel and enter into chaos, where I shall remain eternally. No, contrary to popular belief in these circles, I do not hold to the hope of somehow
ruling in chaos. That is absurd! Neither will I merge with chaos, loosing my individuality and/or awareness. I am left hand path after all, not right hand path. Merging with anything is completely against my will. To look at this through the lens of neomythos, I am willingly walking into
The Lake of Fire, since it is preferable to lifetimes on the wheel as well as
paradise. In fact, I am not only willing doing this, I am doing it with great excitement and anticipation!
