Labyrinthos
Mysteries of Adonism
Mysteries of Adonism
by David Beth
Pre-order in Spring 2020
With the death of both main protagonists during the chaos of WWII, any organized and initiatic operations of this radical polytheist goddess religion ceased.
In the 1990s, David Beth was fortunate to have been initiated into Adonism by a surviving member of the original circle and to his knowledge was the only person subsequently practicing its Gnosis with a small group of initiates.
While also introducing some of its foundational concepts, Labyrinthos will mainly focus on presenting Beth’s own unique approach to and development of Adonism as a powerful anti-monotheist counter-initiation.
Die Sinnlichkeit, Franz von Stuck, c.1889.

The Book of Flesh and Feather

Pre-order in Summer 2020
Aberamenthô, Zemaemidjehuty, (c) 2019.
The Book of Flesh and Feather is a truly magical work. An elaborate theurgical operation, the entire opus is a devotional ritual honoring the Great Djehuty. First inducing a necessary state of Chaos, the ritual then slowly pulls the theurgist into the light of His Gnosis.
This book includes spells, amulets, and hymns which invoke the Great God and exalt His BA. Concluding the work is an initiatory ceremony which allows the operator to become the Word of God and go forth as an emanation of Him.
Rooted in expert knowledge of Coptic, Egyptian and Greek source material, this unique work is a manifestation of years of dedicated practice emanating a real spiritual power and authority.

She of the Night
by Idlu Lili Regulus
Pre-order in Fall/Winter 2020
Theion Publishing is glad to welcome Idlu Lili Regulus whose highly acclaimed debut release Hekate the Crossroads’ Dark Goddess (Ixaxaar 2019) made a great impact. Idlu Lili Regulus’ new work is nothing short of a magnum opus and will engage the highly complex and powerful figure of Lilith.
Investigating Mesopotamian, Hebrew & Semitic, Near Eastern Arabic, Greek as well as Northern European sources, this substantial text is designed to take the reader on an initiatory journey of discovery from the watery Abyss in the days of yore, via the ancient emanating Husk, passing the Three Cranes whose blessings are desired, lured onwards by the seducing song of the Sirens to finally reach the shores of the Drown-Mother of the Sea, the Lady of the Desolate Forest and Lussi Lucia in present day Scandinavia.
This tome is in equal parts a poetic ode, a love song fashioned in the form of a devotional, as it is a well-researched scholarly description of the mythological, archaeological as well as historical sources pertaining to the Goddess Lilith, Her origins, Her various forms, diverse offspring and rituals bespeaking Them all in ancient times.
Author Portrait by the Womb of Ama, by Linn Jätze (IG: @linn.jaetze), (c) 2019.

Especially devoted to the wild and untamed divine feminine, the author’s work combines scholarship and intense magical practice to manifest esoteric glyphs emanating from the pregnant darkness of the ever-becoming Other.
