Luciferian Sorcery
This book has been prepared to commemorate the 11th anniversary of the Temple of Ascending Flame. It is a unique grimoire of Luciferian magic, including rituals, meditations, and practical workings only, providing a glimpse into the ritual system of the temple. Most of these workings were originally designed for the temple’s inner projects, some of them were available as open workings, and there are also rituals and meditations that are completely new and have not been published anywhere else. They cover a variety of subjects, including well-known beings and patron deities of the temple as well as less popular spirits and entities from various areas of the world. Entities such Lilith, Samael, Lucifer, Mephistopheles, Abaddon, and many others – are explored here in a practical way. The book also contains rituals of Egyptian magic and Qabalistic concepts, approached from the modern perspective. Written by the Initiates of the temple, they are meant for active practitioners of Draconian magic and Luciferian Sorcery.

The Leviathan ORacle Study Book
This book is an extensive study of the Oraculum Leviathan tarot deck, based on the work of a subgroup within the Temple of Ascending Flame in the years 2021-2023. Oraculum Leviathan is unique among other decks because it is specifically addressed to a practitioner of Draconian magic and its main theme is built around the initiatory journey through the Tree of Qliphoth. In this book, you will find this journey described in detail, explaining how the particular cards can be related to concepts and ideas within the magic of the Dark Tree. The descriptions of the Major Arcana include the explanation of the symbolism used in each card, their number, the Hebrew letter associated with it, and the corresponding pathway in the Tunnels of Set. The Minor Arcana, which present less complex concepts, are explained in regard to their symbolism and the possible meaning in a reading. This tome also includes two new spreads that can be used to work with the deck and connect with its symbolism. Instead of presenting a generic view of the tarot, this study book goes deep into the meaning of each card, providing an advanced tool for those who truly want to use Oraculum Leviathan as a self-initiatory tool.

THE SPIDER GODDESS
In the Draconian/Typhonian Tradition, the Spider Goddess is the Queen of Space and the Weaver of the Web in the Void. Her role and attributes are much more complex than what we know about her from ancient mythologies, where this archetype is known under such names as Arachne, Uttu, Anansi, the Spider Woman, Maya, and many others. In Qliphothic Qabalah, she is the queen of dark labyrinths beneath the Cosmic Tree. Her web extends across the Void, bridging the gulf between the Dayside and Nightside, waking and dreaming, the conscious and unconscious. Her power is magical venom, which is deadly to mundane consciousness but essential in the formula of initiation as it triggers the process of transformation through the inner alchemy of the mind. She is also the Weaver of Fate, and the spider as a symbol stands for the art of manipulation of destinies and the ability to maintain balance between past and future, spiritual and physical, creation and destruction. As the Dark Initiatrix, she shows us how to gaze through the veil of illusion and access the Web of Fates, how to change and manipulate it at its roots, and by invoking her essence and absorbing her venom we ourselves acquire the power to weave it, thus becoming the true center of the universe and the very root of all manifestation.
These faces of the Spider Goddess and many more are explored in this book. Like other anthologies by the Temple of Ascending Flame, it contains a unique view of the Spider Current, accessed and presented from the perspective of the Draconian Initiate. It is meant for other Draconian practitioners, but it also contains information that will be of interest to anyone who wants to explore the mysteries of the Spider in general.

HECATE – WITCHCRAFT, DEATH & NOCTURNAL MAGIC
Hecate is a goddess of witchcraft, lunar magic, and necromancy. She appears with torches in her hands, accompanied by howling dogs, serpents, and ghosts of the dead – terrifying retinue that roams the land under the cloak of the night. Her powers are many, and her cult involves both life and death – mystical transformation through the ultimate rite of passage and rebirth in the womb of the earth. She is benevolent and generous, both to nature and her worshippers, as well as ruthless and responsible for all nocturnal atrocities and rites of malefica. In ancient times she was believed to endow witches with the power over the forces of nature, reveal secrets of herbs and poisonous plants, and introduce her followers to mysteries of lycanthropy and shape-shifting.
In the Draconian Tradition, she is the guardian of the mystical point of crossing, where all worlds, planes, and dimensions meet and intersect. Initiation into her path involves the descent into inner darkness, the personal “underworld,” where knowledge of ourselves and our universe lies concealed, waiting to be rediscovered. She is the first initiatrix, the psychopomp, and the sentinel who meets the aspiring Initiate at the Crossroads of the Worlds, leading us into the Womb of the Dragon through the gateways of the Nightside.
This anthology contains all those portrayals of Hecate and many more, introducing the reader to the magic and mythology of this mysterious goddess. Here you will find descriptions of personal gnosis revealed through the work of authors featured in this book, as well as references to her appearance in ancient lore and magic of old times. Like the other anthologies by the Temple of Ascending Flame, all this is written from the perspective of the Draconian Initiate, involving a modern approach suitable for the practitioner of the Left Hand Path.

SET – THE FURY OF EGYPT
As a self-created god, Set is a powerful archetype of the Adversary and an attractive model for a practitioner seeking initiation into mysteries of self-deification. Feared by the faint-hearted and worshipped by those who sought power, he has become a symbol of storm and change, movement and transformation, force and energy. His fiery nature represents lust and fury, which is the driving force on the path, and his Black Flame is the inner spark of Godhood that successively becomes the fiery pillar of ascent on the path of self-initiation. His forked knife cuts attachments to the surrounding world, liberating the initiate from bonds of slavery and mindless ignorance, and his scepter represents authority and power, showing us how to devour our gods and be the masters of our destiny.
These portrayals of Set and many more are the subject of this anthology. Here you will find glimpses into his mysteries, provided by active practitioners of Draconian magic and initiates of the Left Hand Path. Essays and poetry, portraits and sigil art, rituals and meditations – all these contribute to the portrayal of Set as a god that is still alive and active in modern times, perhaps even more than ever before. We will look into his origins, ancient myths and legends, and modern interpretations of his role on the Left Hand Path – all this written from the perspective of the Draconian Tradition.

LILITH: DARK FEMININE ARCHETYPE
This anthology brings together essays, rituals, and unique artwork dedicated to the Queen of the Night and the Dark Goddess of the Qliphoth. Denied and rejected, worshipped and venerated, Lilith has been a part of the Western culture for ages. Viewed both as a beautiful seductress and a ruthless demon, she is the Serpent in the Garden of Eden, the first woman, and the primary initiatrix into the mysteries of the dark side of the Qabalistic Tree of Life. Her rites are the works of love and pain, sex and transgression, transcendence and immanence, for she exists at the roots of all desire of all humans past, present, and future. This archetype has never been fully grasped in its profundity and is constantly unfolding, challenging us to recognize our fears and passions and to transform them into tools of power. In this book you will find personal accounts of practitioners who ventured into the sacred and unholy garden of the Dark Queen of Sitra Ahra and returned transformed and empowered by her gnosis. Spells and invocations, dream magic and guided meditations, visions and stories of intimate encounters with Lilith – all this is contained in this unique anthology, written from the perspective of the Left Hand Path and the Draconian Tradition.

RITES OF LUCIFER
Lucifer is the archetype of the Adversary, initiator and guide on the Path of the Nightside. He is the fallen angel of Christian legends, the Devil of witches’ Sabbats, one of primal Draconian Gods, Demon Prince of the Air, and Infernal Emperor of old grimoires. The purpose of this book is to delve into his initiatory role on the Draconian Path and in Atlantean magic through chosen masks and manifestations which Lucifer has used over the ages to reveal his presence to mankind, bestowing his blessings on Initiates and scourging the ignorant. Essays and rituals included here explore both his bright and dark aspects, the face of the Light Bearer and the horned mask of the Devil.
