The Luminous Stone by Schulke Daniel
Lucifer's transgression is examined, as well as the penetrating and trangressive nature of his radiance. In the popular imagination, the fallen angel Lucifer evokes such concepts as heresy, rebellion, pride, liberation from the bonds of demiurgic oppression, and impetus for human evolution. From his earliest origins, the Proud Angel has been hailed by religious and artistic countercultures as a patron saint of enlightenment --his most essential quality embodying overthrow of ignorance and the inspired process of revelation. Allied to ancient Gnostic Christian cosmological conceptions, the fallen angel has also found dominion within occult traditions, folk magic, philosophy, as well as art and literature. Lucifer has also, in many enduring mystical traditions, assumed a female form in the guise of Lucina, Lucia and Diana Lucifera. In his guise as the Serpent of Eden, he bestowed the magical philosophy of the Luciferian Woman, she who was not born of the clay, and was therefore especially receptive to the forbidden powers which would render one 'as God.'
Schulke Daniel: - Daniel Schulke is a writer on the subjects of folk magic, comparative religion, and occult herbalism. His essays have appeared in the prominent occult journals STARFIRE, THE CAULDRON, and ABRAXAS. Schulke is the general editor of the Western Esotericism in Context book series, and of the 2012 book VENEFICIUM, concerning vectors of poison usage in magical traditions. His newest title, ARCANA VIRIDIA ('The Green Mysteries') is an occult herbal 25 years in the making, and will be released in late 2016.
