Lucifer is divine Knowledge. He is the Morningstar who bore the rebellious torch of freedom and enlightenment. He is the fire-bringer who brought forbidden gifts to humanity. He is the thirst for Knowledge, the neverending quest for Wisdom. He a vast canyon with infinite depths far beyond our human reach.

Lucifer is divine Love. He is the protective embrace from the ones who you love most. He loves us wholly, he sees us for who we are with all of our supposed flaws. His unconditional love spreads far beyond his followers for he loves us all even if we are unknowing. The bright star of Venus who's eternal shine ignites the passionate soul.

Lucifer is the Lightbringer, who fights for freedom and equality. He is Divine Justice, The Challenger, The Adversary, the Infernal Lord, who spits in the face of self-prescribed masters and kings and cuts them down where they stand. He fights for those who cannot and inspires endurance through injustice.

He is Death, the decay that grips your body as your soul rises to The Hollow. He is the terrifying stillness of a corpse. He is the carer of all, taking each and every travelling soul under his wing. He is the world shattering transition, the tower crumbling, the life being sucked out from behind your eyes, the rot seeping into the crevasses of what once was.

He is harsh, the course ground on the forest floor that builds calluses on the soles of your feet. He is the loving light of Venus casting down upon his beautiful children. He will knock you to your knees and help you rebuild from the ground up.

Lucifer is liminal, he is everything and all. He is nature, life, death, and everything in between. He is Infernal and Divine. My Infernal Shepherd and divine mentor, I adore you with my whole being, I grow and thrive in your radiant light.

In the first week of April the weather turned suddenly unseasonably, insistently lovely. The sky was blue, the air warm and windless, and the sun beamed on the muddy ground with all the sweet impatience of June.

To the Rainbow Lucifer

Lucifer of the Rainbow, Lucifer, Meadow Dancer!

I see you in flowers, And in the rosy-orange sky When the Sun is rising - The Sun, your other shining face, Oh, sweet Morningstar.

I see you in grass, In brave city dandelions And even at night, In the Moon's colours, subtly changing.

Fallen, you never lost your beauty, Lucifer, Rainbow of This World.

No... because... Lord Lucifer is strict and quite harsh in the most positive sense. But he can be quite sweet and gentle especially when you commit to enlightenment and actually do the inner work. He's undemanding, or better yet, understanding...
