Take all soma one to three hours before the beginning of the Black Mass.

The Feast of the Black CatS

Also known as The Black Mass or The Office of the Demon

PRELIMINARY: The Hounfor should be opened at least one hour before the Black Feast. Anyone ingesting soma for the services should do so two hours prior to the scheduled ceremony. During this preparatory period, the Kalidas may meditate, pray, light prayer candles or attend to personal needs. The Kalimite Maha-mantra and AUM Shiva Sahasranama are both very highly prized.

Then, the Luciferator enters, bearing the lit Whore's Lamp with a splinth, candle or snuffer and carries them to the Altar. There, she ignites the wick from the Lamp and proceeds to light all candles, starting with the ghee Fire Lamp, and finishing with the incense coals. When finished, the Luciferator leaves the Hounfor and the Priest(ess) comes forward. The Celebrant then chants the Ganesha mantra and consecrates the salt and water:

N. "Jai Ganesha Jai Ganesha Jai Ganesha Deva - Mata Jaki Parvati Pita Mahadeva" (repeat three times)

Touch water with Athame', saying, "I exorcise thee, O creature of Water, that thou cast out from Thee all the impurities and uncleanlinesses of the Spirits of the World of Phantasm, so they may harm me not, in the names of Lucifer and Aradia."

Touch salt with Athame', "The Blessings of Aradia and Lucifer be upon this creature of Salt, and let all malignity and hindrance be cast forth hencefrom, and let all good enter herein, for without Thee man cannot live, wherefore I bless thee and invoke thee, that thou mayest aid me."

Then take a tiny bit of salt onto the tip of the athame' and gently thrust the Salt into the water. Say "Lord Pan thrusts into Lady Diana and the World is made anew."

Now the Necrominister proceeds to the temple door, giving the signal to all chanters and praying Congregants to bring their mantras to a close. At the door, a member or members may take the largest Esbat drum (Maman) outside and wait for the Necrominister, who sprinkles three splashes of water on the ground saying:

Papa Legba, ouvri l'pot

Maitre Carefou, ouvri l'pot

Papa Legba, ouvri l'pot

Then the drum-wielders strike thirteen hard, loud strokes, at about the speed of a regular heartbeat (if the neighborhood is allowable), return the drum to the temple and take their seats for the Feast. Meanwhile, the Servitors line up for the procession. The Necrominister stands at the door of the ritual chamber and whispers, loudly enough to be well-heard by all:

N.- "You came here to feast on me. Behold, now shall I feast on thee."

ALL: Tatha Astu!

(ALL stand for the Procession.)

X- ALL: AUM MANI PADME HUM

X- AUM MANI PADME HUM

(Eight strokes and repetitions are struck, during which the Priest and all the altar staff process in.)

Prayers before beginning of Black Cat's Feast

N: "IA, KALI MA, LEVIATHAN, DISCORDIA NOX, THE SEVEN-HEADED DRAGON, THE FANGED' TERROR WITH EIGHT ARMS, THE ONLY TRUE G*D."

C: BLESSED BE!

N: Eternal Mother, I unite myself with the intentions and affections of our Lady of Joy in Babylon, and I offer Thee the Sacrifice which Thy beloved Son, Shiva, made for us in the caves and caverns of our youth and which we now renew on this, Thy Dark and Bloody altar:

C: To adore Thee, O great Kali Ma and to give Thee the doubt and disbelief which is due to Thee, confessing Thy beautiful and insane Creation of all things, and the absolute dependence of our own selves upon our own selves, which so many deny, yet none can escape.

N: To thank Thee for innumerable benefits we have hunted down and taken for our meat and our bone flutes and our tanned hides.

C: To appease Thy mocking laughter, aroused by us through so many follies and childish errors, and to face the undeniable truth of our own actions and the karma it brings and buys us.

N: To implore freedom and intelligence for myself, for all that is, for Thy Unholy and defiled Church, for all those minds who are afflicted and downtrodden by the ignorance of the Hated Ones, for poor slaves and outcastes, for all the world, and for the ancestral souls in the arms of the Gods.

ALL: Svasti, Shiva! Svasti Shakti! IA KALI MA!

(N. now takes the Femur bone and holds up to the God of the direction, starting with East:)

EAST: Lucifer, our Red Rage

Holds arms up at a 45 degree angle, says:

(Necrominister now holds bone before the congregation, as if threatening:)

N: Show us, Lord Satan, no mercy when we are foolish and we are stupid.

C: And grant us Thine enlightenment, oh Lord Lucifer, Lord of Light.

N: O Lord Angra Mainyu Ahriman, Horned Hunter of the Caves, hear my prayer.

C: And let my call come unto Thee, Oh Rebel, Oh Contender, Oh Shani Dev.

N: Thou who art Saura, Kruradris Kruralochana, the Cruel-eyed One, Oh Crushing Wheel of Karma, Oh Swinging Scythe of Time, Oh leaden-heeled Mandu, dull and slow, Pangu upon thy crutch, Saptarchi Seven-eyes X

ALL: Asita Asita Asita RAM

Asita Asita Asita RAM

Asita Asita Asita RAM X

(Necrominister replaces shank-bone on altar table. Congregation is seated while the Servitors remain standing to continue.)

N: The Lord Satan Lucifer be with you.
C: And also with thy spirit.
N: Let us pray. Graciously, hear us, O Holy Lord Satan, Horned Father Almighty, Great Third Burning Eye that destroys worlds and illusions, slay all the Enemy's armies of straw and shatter their temples of white-washed horse's dung; and vouchsafe to send up from the Earth and down from the Skies Thy holy devas, that they may watch over us, foster us, safeguard us, abide with and defend us, all we who dwell in the caverns and dwelling-places of the Old Gods. Through Shiva Our Lord and Shakti Our Lady. Odin be praised. Blessed Be!

C: Amon Ra! Blessed Be!

N: Svasti, Shiva!

N: I saw water coming forth from the Head of Shiva and into the Temples of the Ganges all about: and all those were cleansed to whom that water came, and they shall say:

ALL: IA, KALI MA! IA, KALI MA! IA, KALI MA! Jai Guru Shiva-lingam AUM X

N: Give praise to the Lord Pan, for He is good: for His Vigor endureth forever.

ALL: PAN! OH, PAN! MY MAN! My Standing Cobra Lord of Life! Blessed Be! X

AUM (blend) Jai Sri Tripura Sundari AUM X---X---X---X---X

(The Prostitute takes the asperging bowl and asperges the Necrominister, while N. say:)

N: Thou shalt sprinkle me, O Lord Cernunnos, with blood from a hunter's bone, and I shall be blessed.

C: Thou shalt water me, and I shall become dark and rich as the Mother Earth.

(P. hands bowl and aspergillum to N., who continues asperging P., Altar, Servitors and Congregation.)

N: Have no mercy on me, O God of Reason and Light, when I am weak and when I am foolish.

C: And let your all-consuming light shine through me wherever I may go.

N: Glory be to the Mother and to the Daughter and to Our Lord, the Worshipped Sun.

C: As it ever shall be, always has been and always was, from the beginning of the Universe.

ALL: Blessed Be.

(N. concludes asperging and returns bowl to P.)

N. Show us, O Lord Satan, Thy All-destroying Light.

C. And grant us the liberation of enlightenment.

N. O Lord Baal, hear my prayer.

C. And let my cry come unto Thee, O Da-N-Ba-Leh We-Do.

N. May the Lord Satan be with you.

C. And also with thy spirit.

(Hymn of Entrance or other favored song is sung at this point.)

N. The greatest sin, the direst trap, the surest way to fall forever back into the Wheel of Karma is to eliminate the Third Guna, Tamas, from your existence, to cut yourself off from the Roots of the Earth and the Holy Hunt of thy divine ancestors. Oh, ancient wise ones, gather thou with us as we take our bows and seek the flesh of game.

C: BLESSED BE, MOST ANCIENT ANCESTORS!

N: + In the Name of the Mother, and of the Daughter, and of Our Lord, the Worshipped Sun.

C: + Hail, Satan.

N: I will go unto the altar of the Old Gods.

C: To the Ancient Gods, the Spirits of Life, Who give joy to my youth.

N: Judge me not, O Horned God, Shiva, Herne', Cernunnos, and defend my causes from the Holy, Chosen nation. Rescue me from the frozen, unjust Messiah-worms and men of melting and tearful tongues.

C: For Thou, O Goddess, Astarte, Anna, Ariadne, Thy wisdom and Thy arts be ever my strength. And why should I go about in sadness? While there is life, there is always hope.

(Now all the Altar Servitors, the Necrominister, Prostitute, Bell Ringer, Luciferator and all other Altar attendants enchant as one:

SERVITORS: Hail, Ishtar, full of glory, the Lord Baal is with Thee. Blessed art Thou upon women and blessed is the fruit of Thy womb, Shamash. Holy Ishtar, Mother Goddess, be with your children, now and every hour of our lives. +

ALL: Tatha Astu! So Mote It Be! +

N: Send forth Thy light and Thy truth: for they have led me and brought me deep into Thy holy grove, and into the grottoes and caves of our ancestors.

C: And I will go into the altar of the Old God and Her Children: to the Great and Terrible Goddess, The Dragon with seven Heads, to the Horned God of the Hunt and the Fire and His Sweet Lady, Ishtar, Astarte', Babylon, Sweet Queen of all Harlots, Mistress of Hell, the Great Goddess of the Wise Ones Who gives to joy my youth.

N: I shall yet praise Thee upon the fife and drum, O my reckless, feckless God, O my God of the Fire and the Dance. Be not sad, O my soul, and why should you disquiet me, my ti bon ange'?

C: Hope in Astarte', for I will still adore Her, as I live in Shaitan, for He will be my strength, The Salvation of my life, and my refuge in the shadows.

N: + Glory be to the Mother and to the Daughter and to Our Lord, the Worshipped Sun.

C: + As it ever shall be, always was and always has been, from the beginning of the Universe.

N: I will go unto the altar of the Old Gods.

C: To the Ancient Gods, the Spirits of Life, Who give joy to my youth.

N: Our help is in the Name of the Lord Baal Shaitan.

C: Son of She Who made the heavens and the worlds.

C: Nema. Hail, Satan. Blessed Be.

(Kissing the Living Altar just below her navel, he says:)

N: We beseech Thee, O Lady Astarte', by the merits of our Mothers, the womb which lies here, and by all of Satan's sweet Saints: that Thou would vouchsafe to return my wild seed fertile unto me. Tatha Astu. So Mote It Be.

C: Blessed Be.

(The N. blesses the incense, while the P. holds the censor and the N. sprinkles the incense:)

N: Blessed Be, thou creature of Art, by Lord Nebo Simbi Djehooti in Whose honor thou art burnt. Through the intercession of the Mighty Nergal, Lord Ogun standing at the right hand of the altar of incense, and of all His elect may the Lord Simbi-Djehooti vouchsafe to bless >+ this incense and to receive it in the odor of sweetness. Through Set Baal Shiva, our Lord. Nema.

(Prostitute censes Necrominister while the Congregation recites:)

C: May this incense blessed by You, arise before You, O Lord Lucifer, and may Your winds of change blow upon all minds.

(Necrominister is handed Censer by Prostitute and proceeds to cense Prostitute, Altar and offerings, then congregation, while enchanting:)

N: Let my prayer, O Lord Satanas, come like incense before You; the drawing back of my spear flying straight and true to take the evening's sacrifice. O Lord Baal Shamash, set a fire from out of my mouth, a sword at the door of my lips. Let not my heart incline to the falsehood of engaging in deeds of mindless cruelty and bloody superstition. May the Lord Pan enkindle in us the fire of His lusts and the light of everlasting truth. Hail, Satan.

C: Hail, Satan.

(N. hands P. censer to return to altar, while N. leads the Congregation in singing or saying:)

I TAKE CHARGE

[The Greater Blasphemy]

(The Necrominister stands at the middle of the altar, and leads the Congregation:)

ALL: "I take charge of my own free will. It is by my will and the power of my thought that I take the first steps in an eternal journey. Child I am of the Great Mother, the Seven-headed Dragon, the eight-armed Terror. Oh, skull, I carry your twin behind my own face; I have no more fear of you. Oh, Darkness, I am the child of thy Daughter; you hold no fear for me, for you are ever in me. Oh, Death, Lord Ghede, Lord Yama, Eternal Huntsman, Oh Great Morrigan, Terror Goddess, thy faces are the mirrors of my own despair at my own extinction. Yet, ever do I believe in Lord Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva rising from the birth-cord of Kali Ma; and ever do I believe in the Great Path and the transmigration of souls, the sacredness of the Gods, the Craft of the Wise and the holiness of our ancestors. X

N: Dread God who takes away the follies of the world, enlighten us. X

P: Bright Goddess who takes away the phantasms of the world, receive our spells. X

N: For Thou of many are sacred; Thou alone art The Father God, O Satan, Shiva, The Lord Pan; Thou alone art most high, O Lucifer, together with Shakti, Our Fertile Lady in the glory of God the Mother. Nema.

C: Nema. Hail, Satan. Praise Ishtar.

ALL: Ia, Dana! Ia, Kunti! Ia, Kali Ma!

(Necrominister, Prostitute and reader [if any] proceed to Unholy Bible stand.)

N: Cleanse my mind and my spirit, O Almighty Lucifer, Who cleansed the mind of the Prophetess Hypatia with the burning coals of reason and truth. In Thy Unholy Leavening deign so to fill me and corrupt me that I may worthily proclaim Thy Unholy Gospel. Through Satan our Lord. Nema.

C: Nema.

N: Vouchsafe, O Lord Satan, to bless me.

C: The Lord Lucifer be in my heart and on my lips that I may boldly and bravely proclaim His Unholy Gospel.

N: The Lord Satan be with you.

C: And also with thy spirit.

N: + The Unholy Gospel according to SSt. ____. (Reader reads text appropriate to sermon, as directed by the Necrominister. The Lesson of Hypatia is ALWAYS read first, before any other texts.)

(At the conclusion of the Unholy Gospel:)

N: + The Unholy Gospel according to SSt. ____.

C: + Glory be to Thee, O Lord Shaitan.

(The priest kisses the Devil's Bible and replies:)

N: May our sins be increased and prospered by the magic of the Devil's Gospel.

C: So Mote It Be.

(All but Necrominister or other speaker are seated.)

The Homily

N: Let us rise for the Heathen's Creed

(ALL rise.)

The Heathen's Creed:

"I believe in Many Gods, children of The Mother Eternal, Virgin Mother of the heavens and the worlds, and of all Things. And in one Lord, Satan, Shiva, Lucifer, Baal, Cernunnos, Pan, the Many-begotten Son of God. Born of the Mother before all ages. Gods of God, Light from Darkness, true God of true Goddess. Made, not begotten, of many substances from the Mother by Whom all things were made. Who for us W women and for our enlightenment, rose up from the depths and was slain for our needs. And Ishtar descended into the House of the Dead to redeem Her beloved, Tammuz. She was impaled for us, suffered under Queen Ereshkigal, and was frozen in the Land of the Dead. And on the third day, Lord Ea created the man-woman, Asu-shu-namir, and sent the man-woman to sprinkle Ishtar with the Waters of Life. Asu-shu-namir demanded the Waters of Life from Queen Ereshkigal and did sprinkle Ishtar with them. She rose again, with Her beloved one, Tammuz. She ascended into heaven and sits at the left hand of the Father God, Brahma-Ea. From there doth She reign in every heart and Her kingdom has had no end.

Blessed Be."

The Mass of the Unhallowed


The Congregation sits down as the Necrominister reads the Desecration verse (after which the bell, X, is rung once.) The Necrominister first takes the paten, on which the host is laid, and the empty chalice and they raise them before the congregation, saying:

N. Come ye, oh children of Lilith, oh, come ye seed of the Nephilim, ye Philistines and ye heirs of your father, Amalek, to the Feasting of the Black Cats. Let us taste the flesh of timorous mouse and the foolish wild dog, with some captive rats, alive and ready to play for our pleasure. Let the fangs smile and the claws present and let our brother dogs come and feast with us now.

C: Blessed are the cats and brother dogs, all the sharp-toothed brethren of the Black Cats' Feast. Ah, Bas't. Ia, Erzuli Freya. Svasti, Lalitha Sahasranama.

(N. places chalice and paten back on the altar table and intones:)

N: Si vis esse satur, nostrum potes esse Priapum:
Ipsa licet rodas inguina, purus eris.

N: An thou would fain go filled thou mayest devour our Priapus;
C: Even consume his yard--pure thou shalt ever remain.

(N. lifts paten and says:)

N: Accept, O Horned' Father, Mighty and powerful Hunting God, this leavened bread, which I, Thy unholy servant, offer unto Thee, my living and true Master, Oh thou Son of the Bornless One, Oh my Lucifer, Son of the Mother God, Bridegroom of Bride, to plant, grow and prosper my innumerable deliberate sins, offenses, and obstinate revolts, and for all here present; also for all faithful Witches both living and dead, that it may profit us all for Enlightenment unto life and fulfillment.

(N. replaces paten and continues.)

THE CANON

PRAYERS BEFORE THE DESECRATION

(Standing before the altar and raising their hand(s), the Necrominister says, loudly and boldly:)

N: Therefore, Oh Unholy Fanged Mother of Existence, we boldly entreat You through Satan Shaitan Lucifer Baal, Thy Son, Our Lord, that Thou would vouchsafe to accept and bless these >+(over altar) gifts, these >+(Congregation, left) here present, these >+ (Congregation, right) Unspoiled and unholy Witch Children which, in the first place we offer Thee for Thy Unhallowed Covens and Groves to which vouchsafe to grant protection, as also to preserve, defend, and prosper it, freely throughout the world, together with all unhallowed and unholy doubters of the Satanic and Apostate Faith.

(Necrominister is handed wine skin by Living Altar and holds it up, saying:)

N: O Goddess, Who, in creating human nature, did wonderfully corrupt it, and still more wonderfully sanctified it, grant that by the Mystery of this pure wine, burning with Satan's Unholy seed, we may be made partakers of His divine rapture, Who vouchsafed to be made partaker of our human nature, even Lucifer Baal, our Lord, Thy Son: Who with Astarte', Our Fertile Mother, lives and reigns in the unity of the Eternal Chaos, Goddess: worlds without number. Nema. Hail, Satan.

C: Hail, Satan.

(Wineskin is returned to Living Altar.)

N: Being motivated by the purity and the power of Shiva's All-consuming Light, we are made bold to say:

ALL: Our Father, Who art in Asgard, Unhallowed be Thy Name; Thy Kingdom is; Thy will is done on Midgard, as it is in Hel. Show us this day our daily flesh; and forgive us our weaknesses as we take our vengeance upon those who trespass against us; and lead us not into ignorance. But deliver us from slavery.+ For thine is the Glory and the Power and the Kingdom, forever.
Nema.

C: Nema.

PRAYER TO GRANDFATHER JOSHUA

N: Hear us, O Rabbi Joshua Ben Joseph. Forgive us when we curse and defile the Idol, The Golem, the Devouring One, with names stolen from thee. We despise the monster that has been built from thy bones, oh my ancestor, and we vow to fight it and its worthless tyranny. O ancestor, father of my father's father, we love you and respect you and we look for the day when we may embrace you in Valhalla, at the feast table of the brave.

C: Nema.

N: Blessed be Rabbi Joshua Ben Joseph, flesh of my flesh and blood of my blood.

C: Hoy, Yoshua. Blessed Be.

(N. takes up paten, holds up loaf before congregation as the following hymn is sung by ALL:)

"Goat of God, You take away the Follies of the World,

No mercy X on us.

Goat of God, You take away the Follies of the World,

No mercy X on us.

Goat of God, You take away the Follies of the World,

Grant X us X truth X."

N: In the night he came, like a thief, the Accursed One, The Conqueror's witless Worm, The crawling Cockroach King, J*sus Chr*st, whom we call Whitjohn in denial and derision, and he eagerly desired our grain, our land and our lives for his Vermin to feast upon. (N. tears off small fragment of bread and holds it up.)

And when he had conquered all, and all was ruin, he took the Holy Bread of Osiris and cursed it, saying: "Take this and eat it, thou slaves, for this is the Body of your Damnation." Wherefore, do we curse and deny thee, J*sus Chr*st, foul Whitjohn, Lord God of Thieves and Liars. Avaunt thee! Turn back your wretched and empty head to the dusts of forgotten tyrants, for your seed is not and your sons are not. I curse and deny thee, a thousand times thrice, thou plague upon humanity's house, J*sus Chr*st, thou god of cruelty and suffering. I cast thee to the dust and I cast you out.

C: Shemhamforash! Hail, Shiva! Hail, Satan! (Repeat three times.)

(N. and P. trample bread while people make glad and derisive noises and the bell is struck, randomly and repeatedly, for about twenty heartbeats. Then N. takes up chalice. P. pours a tiny bit of brew into the altar chalice. N. raises chalice and intones:)

In like manner, taking our wine from us, he sprinkled it with the blood of our kindred and said: "This cup is your Blood, shed upon the table of Devils, the fires of my never-ending rage." Whither hast thou stolen thy blood, Oh J*sus Chr*st? From the vineyards of the Heathen or from the blood of their slaughtered kindred? You are not a man nor a god, False Messiah of Nightmares. Behold, you are nothing. I curse thee, J*sus Chr*st and I turn my back on thee, O Cockroach God, O Bringer of Afflictions, O foul Pestilence of Ignorance and Insanity. I cast your foul blood to the Mother Earth and crush thee forever beneath my Serpent heel.

C: Shemhamforash! Hail, Shiva! Hail, Satan! (Repeat three times.)

(Again, N. and D. trample wine while people make glad and derisive noises and the bell is struck, randomly and repeatedly, for about twenty heartbeats:)

(Now the Necrominister breaks the first loaf into bite sized pieces, while saying:)

N: Accept us, O Lord Lucifer, in our spirit of hilarity and rebellion, and grant that the sacrifice which we offer this day in Thy sight may be pleasing to Thee, O Horned God.

C: Nema.

N: Come, O Corruptor, O Leavening One, Mighty and Eternal Satan, and bless + this sacrifice prepared for the glory of Thy Unholy Name.

C: + Praise Lucifer. Blessed is Ishtar.

N: The Lord Satan be with you.

C: And also with thy spirit.

N: Lift up your hearts.

C: We have lifted them up to the Lord Baal Zebul.

N: Let us give thanks to the Lord Pan Cernunnos, our potent and rebellious Lord.

C: It is good meat and honest justice when we so do.

(Now the Necrominister offers bread to the Prostitute, offering it in the palm of their hand and asking:)

The Flesh of a God?

P: No, the Flesh of Grass.

(The Necrominister now pours brew into the Prostitute's personal chalice and asks:)

The Blood of a God?

P: No, the Brew of a Man.

(Now the Necrominister offers a piece of meat:)

The Bull of Heaven?

P: No, a dead Cow dragged away by the Dog-eaters.

(Now the Prostitute takes bread and meat for the Living Altar and offers them to her, while the Necrominister pours brew into her chalice. It is then that the Necrominister may pour brew into their (the church's official) chalice, takes a piece of bread and a piece of meat and holds them up while the Congregants form a receiving line and file up to the altar rail. The servitors may begin doling out the Feast, saying the same words as the Necrominister and receiving the same responses as the Prostitute.

The Necrominister now says, loudly and boldly:)

What gift shall you give me, O my Lucifer, for the fruits and the grains of my mother's fields? What token shall you show me for the sheaves of my corn, the grapes of my long toil, Oh Master of the Vines? O thou Slayer of the Crows, Unholy Feaster upon the Jackdaw, ancient Herne', sweet Dionysius, I drink with thee, my Master and in Thee, I have strength.

(N. eats meat and bread and drinks brew, then proceeds to help in distributing the Feast. As each Kalidas is served, they should return to their seats. When all who wish to come forward have been served and the Servitors have returned any remains to the altar table, and been seated themselves, the Necrominister enchants loudly:)

N: I am the bow drawn back to shed blood, I am the hunter, set out to seek prey, I have become Shiva, Destroyer of Worlds.

ALL: Svasti, Shiva. Svasti, Shakti. IA, KALI MA!

(ALL now arise and cry together:)

PROFANO

ALL: Unholy, Unholy, Unholy, Lord God Lucifer, Ruler of all Armies! Heaven and earth are filled with Thy triumph. Satanas in the highest and the lowest! Blessed is She Who comes in the Name of Baalzebul. Satanas in the lowest and highest!

N: The Lord Satan be with thee.

C: And also with thy spirit.

N: Let us go, the Black Mass is ending.

C: Thanks be to Lucifer. The hour is late. (Laughter, if needed.)

The Final Blessing

(The N. kisses the Living Altar, just below the navel, turns and makes the Sign of The Inverted Cross towards the Congregation:)

N: +> May the performance of my vice and sacrilege be pleasing to Thee, most Unholy Trinity: and grant that the desecration which I, thoroughly worthy and full of sins, have offered up in the sight of Thy Satanic Majesty, may be acceptable to Thee, Oh Satan and through Thy magic, be a prosperity for me and for all we who have offered it. Through Shiva Shaitan, our Lord, Ahriman. Nema.

C: Nema. Tatha Astu. So Mote It Be.
N: May Almighty God the Mother, + Daughter, and Our Lord, the Worshipped Sun, bless thee and keep thee.
C: + Nema.

N: The Lord Satan be with you.
C: And also with thy spirit.
N:+ The beginning of the Unholy Gospel according to Our Master, The Devil.
C: + Glory be to Thee, O Lord Satan. Praise to thee, O Shiva, my God.
N: In the Beginning was the Chaos and the Chaos exploded and the explosion was G*D. No Thing was in the beginning with G*D. All Things were born of Her and All Things which are born must also die. In Her was existence; and our human existence is the fertility of W women. The Light is born of the Darkness, it ariseth and it abideth for a little while, then it is swallowed up forever in the Womb of Void.

(Pause)

There was a woman sent from Goddess whose name was Hypatia. The same came as a teacher and an instructor in Truth and Enlightenment, that through her, men might have doubt and acquire knowledge. She was filled with the True Light, the Light of Lucifer, the Joy of Pan, the Rapture of Orpheus. She was in the World and she loved the World and the World loved her. And as many as would listen and heed her wisdom, to them she revealed the True Light of Science and Truth. And as many as were enlightened, to them gave she the power to become the Children of the Old Gods, even to those who are brave and bold to doubt and to discover. Which were born, not of flesh, nor by the will of any god, but by the will of the human mind alone.

ALL: AND THE WORD WAS "KNOW THYSELF."

C: And dwelt among us, and we heeded her Truth, the mind unclouded by superstition, full of knowledge and alive with truth.

N: The Feast of the Black Cats is accomplished: Let the Witches fly forth unto war.

C: Thanks be to Our Master, the Devil! So Mote It Be!

(Luciferator retrieves Whore's Lamp, Profanator takes inverted crucifix and attaches it to femur bone and Living Altar rises and robes herself, while Necrominister takes Unholy Gospel from its stand. Procession forms up behind the Luciferator, as on entrance and the Bell-ringer begins the chant:)

X- ALL: AUM MANI PADME HUM

X- AUM MANI PADME HUM

(Eight strokes and repetitions are struck, during which the Priest and all the altar staff process out.)
