FROM THE PUBLISHER:
Of all the daimons that have plagued or
blessed mankind throughout history, our muse, Wisdom, is perhaps the
most elusive of all. Known by many names and terms – Gnosis,
Sapientia, Pistis Sophia, and LuxFerre among many others – this
varied and challenging topic is difficult to discuss using mere
semantics; so liquid are Its inherent qualities and so fierce is Its
passion!
This spirit-force represents every
manifested Idea and Ideal, be they creative intelligence or a
self-annealing process that guides the pilgrim along the Path of
Exile & Exalt. As a “living” and moving
ethos/archetype/notion, Sapientia itself (regardless of chosen deific
or prosaic name for it), is truly a discarnate entity. Its secrets
are revealed simply, poignantly, and profoundly, but this gift comes
at a certain price – a heavy and oftentimes formidable one at that!
The theme of this upcoming issue could
not be more Luciferian in essence, as it is the very foundation of
Luciferian praxis and applied tenets. In layman's terms, it revolves
around the concept and application of “Sacrifice” in the pursuit
of Truth, to reach Henosis with the Divine-Within.
The Scalding of Sapientia is a
compendium of personal operations, insights, journal entries and
excerpts, detailed compilations and interpretations, notable turning
points in one’s occult journey, and specifically, the zeniths and
nadirs one can experience when undertaking such a colossal mission
that may come with realizations that may either make or break one’s
persona in the Cosmogony of the Possible.
