The Underworld Exposed

If you read the definition of Demonologist it states:

Demonologist:
  • the study of demons or of beliefs about demons.
  • belief in demons.
  • a group of persons or things regarded as evil or pernicious.

 


In other words if they just ‘read a friggen book’, Then they can refer to themselves as a Demonologist.

The existance of evil and its demonic deliverers has been pondered since the beginning of time.
There are many views on the subject, as well as many people who have dedicated their lives to demonology.

Their work through the centuries has been agreed upon, argued over and the validity, at times, by some, completely ignored.
Varying religions and cultural backgrounds certainly have affected the information passed down to us by the brilliant researchers, philosophers and historians of centuries past.


Alphonsus de Spina, in 1467, published his Fortalicium Fidei (Fortress of the Faith)

He became a professor at the University of Salamanca and later a bishop of the church.
Considered an authority on all things theological, including demonology.
He concluded that there are ten orderes of demons and that they totalled in the millions.
He categorized the demons as falling into nine specific types.
He also divided them into classes according to what their purposes are.


Johannes Weyer (Weir), another authority in demonic studies, wrote his De Praestigiis Daemonum in the 16th century.

Studying works of such authorities as
Diodorus Siculus of the 1st century and Apaleius of the 2nd century as well as many other notable historians.
Weyer believed that the names of the Demons explained what their intentions and/or duties were to be.


Weyer claimed that the infernal regions had 66 princes that commanded 6,666 legions.
Each legion being comprised of 6,666 Demons or Devils.
These figures explains the well recognized “number of the beast”, 666.
Some Cabalists believe that this is
600 (false religion), 66 (greed) and 6 (this world).

Following the list of the demonic names and ranks are the explanations of the types and orders as De Spina recorded them.

Alphonsus de Spina’s Nine Types of Demon

2. Lying spirits
3. Inquisitors
4. Vengeful
5. Deluding
6. Creators of Tempests

The ” Lesser Key of Solomon” or the ” Lemegeton“, plays an important role in the history, study of, summoning of and exorcising of demonics.

The First part called “Godetia“, gives the conjurations for 72 different spirits or demons.
It also includes the ranks and the offices held by the Demonic heirarchy.

The Second part
 called “The Urgia Godetia“, deals with the sprits at the cardinal points.


The Third part
 called the “Pauline Art” ( reason unknown), it concerns the spirits of the hours of the days and nights of the Zodiac.


The Fourth part
called “The Almaden“, deals with the ” Quarternary of the Attitude”, or the four other choirs of spirits inhabiting hell.


The Fifth part
and last part of the Key of Solomon is the Book of “Orations and Prayers“, said to have been used by King Solomon himself.

Rita Cabezas, A Latin American controversial Demonologist received much criticism on her work.
The criticism was not in her findings, yet in her means of attaining the information.
She spent some time communicating with those residing in the Infernal regions.
Her work was built, according to her, on the word of the demonic themselves. T
his may have been through conjuration, summonings, channeling or even seance type activitities.
As we are all aware, this was an extremely risky approach.

Rita Cabezas findings were that there were the following six principalities (in spanish):

Damian

Asmodeo
Menguelesh
Arios
Beelzebub
Nosferateus
Under each of these were six govenors for each nation.


Rita Cabezas
 claimed that in
Costa Rica Shiebo, Quiebo, Ameneo, Mephistopheles, Nostrodamus and Azazel reign.

United States Ralphes, Anoritho, Manchester, Apolion, Deviltook, alas and one that remained unnamed reign.

Similiarities in her findings
Apollo = Apollyon.
Asmodeo =Asmodeus.
Ralphes = Raphael

 

 

There are some noted as being demonics that also have a very high reverence as being benign and even maternal/paternal figures
in pagan cultures from past and present.

They are as follows :
Hecate
Kali
Pan
Loki
Lilith
Baphomet

Cultural differences may divide humanity in many ways, That being said, We are unified in our intrigue and in our fear when it comes to the Infernal regions.
