Psalterium Sathanas & The Book of Devotional Service to the Dark King of Flame: Lucifer.
Expanded and revised edition, combining 2 books with new chapters added.
Psalterium Sathanas, authored by JCB, is a compact yet sophisticated devotional grimoire dedicated to the figure of Lucifer-Satan. Far from being a formulaic ritual manual or a polemical inversion of Christian liturgy, the text functions as a contemplative psalter, offering 24 hymns, prayers, and mantras that serve as instruments of meditative devotion. Its structure is deliberately simple yet layered: the first book presents the series of devotional verses, while the second extends their implications through The Epistle of Kenosis, five additional hymns to the Adversary, practical meditation instructions, and the invocations of the Grand Seals of Fire and Air.
¶
The central aim of the work is not outward ritual spectacle but inner transformation. By stepping outside of routine existence and reciting its verses in a meditative state, the practitioner is invited to enter into a rhythm of spiritual contemplation that emphasizes both self-emptying (kenosis) and the cultivation of devotional service in the mode of Bhakti-Yoga. This transposition of Eastern contemplative methods into a Luciferian theological framework reflects the author’s wide familiarity with esoteric thought, and the text functions as a bridge between Western occult philosophy and interior mystical practice.
¶
Lucifer-Satan is here depicted not merely as a transgressive adversary, but as a complex, ambivalent figure embodying both the luminous and the chthonic. Echoing Gnostic imagery, the hymns present Satan-Lucifer as a force of liberation, illumination, and rebellion—yet also as a bearer of profound spiritual love and transformative power. As reviewers note, the text’s devotional character renders it deeply personal and affective, offering not simply theoretical reflection but lived practice: a window into the daily offerings and meditations of a committed practitioner.
¶
Produced in a finely bound limited edition, Psalterium Sathanas is as much an object of aesthetic devotion as a manual of spiritual exercise. Its black linen binding, gilt lettering, and esoteric seals reinforce the sense of it being a work of sacred art. Yet it is not intended to remain inert on a shelf; it is designed to be engaged with repeatedly, forming part of a practitioner’s ongoing spiritual praxis.
¶
Ultimately, Psalterium Sathanas occupies a distinctive niche in contemporary occult literature: it is devotional rather than didactic, contemplative rather than prescriptive, and profoundly intimate in its theological vision. It seeks to guide its reader not toward ritual mastery or intellectual system-building, but toward the cultivation of direct spiritual bonds with Lucifer-Satan as both adversary and light-bearer—a current of power that is at once destructive and regenerative, shadowed and radiant.

The Book of Devotional Service to the Dark King of Flame: Lucifer
¶
By JCB (Aeon Sophia Press)
¶
A sacred devotional grimoire of flame and illumination, The Book of Devotional Service to the Dark King of Flame: Lucifer offers the practitioner a concise yet profound system of spiritual practice dedicated to the Adversary as Light-Bearer and Lord of Wisdom. Subtitled A Grimoire of Bhakti-Yoga, this work reinterprets Eastern devotional mysticism through the lens of Luciferian gnosis—transforming worship, invocation, and prayer into acts of living flame.
¶
Structured as both scripture and rite, the book unfolds in two parts: a brief philosophical treatise and a complete sequence of ritual texts. In The Epistle of Sophia’s Luciferian Incarnation, the author presents a visionary theology of Sophia and Lucifer as twin currents of wisdom and enlightenment—the descent of divine fire into the human soul so that man might awaken to his own divinity. This doctrinal prelude provides the metaphysical key to the devotional service that follows.
¶
The ritual section constitutes the heart of the book. Here, the reader is led through a series of formal prayers and invocations—each one a petition, offering, or contemplative act directed to Lucifer as the Dark King of Flame. These include:
¶
- The Preliminary Rite, to prepare the heart for service.
- A Prayer for Wisdom, invoking the inner light of understanding.
- Invocations for the Dark Light of Lucifer’s Torch, Passage, Serenity, and Descent, guiding the devotee through spiritual initiation and transformation.
- Prayers of Protection, Love, and Praise to the Triple Manifestation of the Most High, uniting reverence, discipline, and illumination.
¶
Every text within the grimoire is meant to be spoken, lived, and repeated. The work functions less as a book of ceremonial magic and more as a devotional companion—a manual of daily service, prayer, and inner contemplation. Through the steady rhythm of these rites, the practitioner learns to perceive Lucifer not as an external force, but as the ever-burning flame of consciousness itself.
¶
Originally issued by Aeon Sophia Press in an extremely limited hand-numbered edition, The Book of Devotional Service to the Dark King of Flame: Lucifer stands as a true collector’s grimoire—a small but powerful temple book meant to be used, meditated upon, and preserved as a sacred artifact.
¶
This is a work of devotion, transformation, and revelation: an invocation of flame, a descent into wisdom, and an ascent toward the divine through the Light-Bringer himself.

Book review:
Review by P. Rodway.
Psalterium Sathanas is a deeply personal work and offers what at times can be considered a moving, even beautiful selection of hymns and devotional prayers to Lucifer.
This is not a formulaic ritual manual relying on arcane instructions, nor is it a text that tries to intellectualise the nature of Satan and Satanic practice. This is not a “how to” or a collection of inverted Christian dogma that is seemingly prevalent in this field of writing.
Instead we are gifted a window into the daily offerings and praxis of a dedicated practitioner in the form of contemplations and meditations that can be introduced to your own work.
It is abundantly clear that the author is familiar with a range of esoteric thought from both Western and Eastern traditions and that the hymns and chants are designed to offer a conduit or connection to the essence of the primordial current. These can be used to delve deeper into your own psyche and develop your own connection and understanding of your true being – which for me is the ultimate purpose of any Luciferian activity.
Whilst Psalterium Sathanas is an excellent addition to my library, it is not a book that will sit on a shelf. Rather it is something I will work with and use as I cultivate my own practices and thoughts – highly recommended.

Review by V. Moore.
Psalterium Sathanas
Mr. Boomsma is well known for his publishing company Aeon Sophia Press, but if you ever wondered what occult practice Boomsma was engaged in, other then putting out beautiful editions of the occult work of others, you may wonder no more. Sathanas is a moving and inspiring book of devotional hyms to one of my favorite deities, Lucifer, Lord Satan himself. Each hymn is a call to, and in praise of Satan. The depth of love that the author expresses here to Satan is quite moving. In referencing the great aspects of Satan Boomsma praises the Dark Lord's serpentine knowledge, spirit of freedom and rebellion and something that your run of the mill Christian certainly has missed, Satan's ability to confer exquisite trance and mind bending revelations on his devotes. Having experienced a large number of these Satanic revelations personally I can attest to the authors authenticity. By serving Satan, Boomsma also understands that he is serving himself, or his true self, not the illusory ego that we all carry around. This author understands that Satan is not only the Dark Lord, but he is also Lucifer, the light bearer. In this sense Satan-Lucifer can be seen as the Gnostic god Abraxas, balancing both darkness and light, good and evil. There is talk of love and talk of hate in this book and Satan knows we need both to fully live in this world. In this book can be found beautiful meditation practices, prayers, chants in order to assist you to connect more closely with Satan. If you are looking for methods to connect you to the dark realm of Satan then I highly recommend this book. Coming from an old Satanist like myself, this is high praise. Buy this book, dive deep into the Waters of Ain and enjoy the pleasures of Satan's Black Radiance.
