, he's widely documented and usually referred to as a Gnostic deity, archon, etc.

I understand where you're coming from though. He's in the PGM's Headless Rite as "Abrasax", and whenever I say his name as part of the barbarous names in it, I get the feeling of tremendous merciless power - not that I'm conjuring that spirit, it's just in the way that name rolls off the tongue. I'd like to do some research on him (and finally read Michael Cecchetelli's "The Book of Abrasax") or create a standalone ritual for general empowerment one day... I won't use "Abraxas" though because it reminds me too much of the eponymous Santana album. 😁
