Hey Friend, Asenath here...
 
The origin of Ahriman and black magic in ancient Persia resembles other ancient myths of good and evil, but there are specific elements that make it unique among similar accounts.
 
Ahriman As Prototype For Self-Initiation And Diabolism
 
This bright child is Ohrmuzd, he who would later be called "Ahura Mazda," the lord or wisdom and the highest spirit of worship in Zoroastrianism. The dark and evil son of the primordial creator is Ahriman, or Angra Mainyu, the epitome of the adversary and the origin of all witchcraft, black magic and sorcery. If we therefore forget about all prejudice and superstition portraying him as a purely destructive force, we are left with an attractive self-initiatory model for a modern Left Hand Path magician.
 
Seen from the Left Hand Path perspective, Ahriman is a prototype of a principle that in Western esotericism is referred to as the Prince of Darkness, the Devil, and the Enemy of Faith. In this sense he embodies all that is not part of the outlook promoted by mainstream religions.
 
 
We can even say that Ahriman, like other self-created gods, stands for self-deified consciousness, typifying a magician who has found power and immortality within darkness and void, giving birth to oneself as one's own creation. He embodies man's desire of transcendence, not through union with any higher force but through individual self-deification and searching for godhood within.
 
Ahrimanic initiation is about awakening the inner potential. This is best explained in the legend of Zahhak, a young Arab prince who attracts the attention of the lord of darkness and becomes his "son" and initiate. According to the story, Ahriman disguises himself as a chef and comes to serve the prince. After presenting Zahhak with many marvelous feasts, the prince offers him anything he wants, but Ahriman asks merely to be able to kiss the prince's shoulders. When this happens, he immediately vanishes, and at the same time two black snakes grow out of Zahhak's shoulders. These snakes are symbolic of Ahrimanic essence within the body of the prince, and Zahhak is slowly transformed into a powerful sorcerer. He becomes a demon king and invades the nearby territories at the head of an army of other demons, which is the beginning of his thousand-year long reign over the land. From an esoteric perspective we can say that he is the first initiate of the lord of darkness, awakened by Ahriman from the "sleep" of mindless ignorance and led to a powerful self-transformation that made him a god-like being and the ruler of the world, known in ancient legends as Aži Dahāka, the son of Angra Mainyu. This is also what awaits an initiate on the path of Ahriman.
 
This Beautiful Grimoire By Kurtis Joseph Opens Vast New Uncharted Territory For Ritual Pathworking The Ahrimanic Current
 
This magical tradition has been unknown to the Western esotericism for a long time. In the recent decades this has changed, though, due to several books and publications exploring this fascinating path of self-initiation. Black Magick of Ahriman is not the first among those publications, but it certainly brings forth the freshest perspective on the subject, providing a grimoire of powerful sorcery for those who dare to summon and face the lord of darkness himself. This is not only an evocative tome, with spells and rituals allowing for access to this ancient path of sorcery, but also an incredibly informative book full of personal gnosis received directly from Ahriman and his dark spirits. Rituals presented here are not found in any other books of magic and constitute a completely unique and powerful grimoire, a truly magical and inspiring tome that will give you a solid foundation for your personal work with the path that over the ages has been embraced only by few, but forbidden and feared by many.
