A Luciferian Lorica

A lorica is a “breastplate” an invocation of power meant to surround the body and soul with defenses. The following is adapted for Luciferian use. It can be used solely as an invocation, or it can be used as a ritual while getting dressed in the morning, to both physically and spiritually “armor up.” Instructions are included for using this as a ritual with the addition of a sacred blade to guide the energy placed. You can use another tool if you so choose. To erect a shield around someone else, simply substitute the appropriate pronouns.

(Arms out at sides, holding your blade in dominant hand)

I invoke today the Power Within against every hostile force which may assail my body and soul.

(With every line following, pass the blade around your body completely)

Against the invocation of Deity against me

Against the darkness within my fellow humans

Against the false words of liars

Against the designs of malicious spirits

Against the spells of hostile witches

Against every merciless power

Against every manner of bodily harm

Adversary, protect me today.

(Touch your heart with your blade)

Let power be within me

(Point with the blade in each direction as you say it)

Before me

Behind me

Above me

Below me

To my right

And to my left

(Arms out spread wide)

Be there power in my actions

(Cross your arms over your chest)

Power in stillness

(Touch the blade to your forehead)

Power my thoughts

(To your lips)

Power in my words

(Touch the pommel to your breastbone

Adversary guide the heart of every being that thinks of me to friendship

(Touch the pommel between your eyes)

Guide the eye of every being that sees me to joy

(Touch the pommel to each ear)

Guide the ear of every being that hears me to wisdom

(Touch the pommel to your lips)

Guide the mouth of every being that speaks of me to kindness

(Trace a pentacle (inverted or upright, your choice) over your chest)

I bind to myself today the infernal powers through the invocation of the Adversary

With faith in the strength within me

Let my will be done throughout Creation.

Additional Notes

In the section at the beginning where you invoke protection against things, you can add things in that you wish to be protected from. I used an invocation much like this back when I was a xtian witch, and my family and I would sometimes get ridiculously specific about what we wanted to be protected from.

This will be the first in a series of corrupted Catholic prayers to use for Luciferians. Finally getting some use out of my training makes me squee inside

Feedback is appreciated. And if you get some use out of it, I’d love to hear about it!
