Popularized by the movie "The Ninth Gate", the "Delomelanicon" is a mythological tome purported to be written by the Devil himself, produced in Venice in the year 1666. This book, in Latin, supposedly contains formulas for opening the Nine Gates of Hell and summoning Satan.
Now the book does not exist - recreations from the movie along with external sources are floating around out there.
However, I've noticed that this theme pop up from time to time in Satanic / Luciferian materials. The goofy "Temple of Satan" seems to have a book on it, but they seem like a total joke - like "let's literally be evil from a Christian moral standpoint and larp as Sith Lords" type stuff. There's an out of print book by Scott E. Hobbs called "Gates of Lucifer" that might have something to do with it, but I can't find a copy (and it seems really pricey), which has 7 gates of Lucifer.
I'm currently working with Lord Lucifer as my principal deity / higher self, and I'm at a point right now where - as far as I can tell - he wants me to initiate a period of struggle which will challenge me but end with the pulverization of my previous ego and a spiritual rebirth. It also seems connected with grounding myself in a formal occultic system? He wants me to either open up the Tunnels of Qliphoth to initiate myself in a Kabbalistic-Goetic system (something ala Karlsson), or something more Goetic / Christian (which are these "nine gates").
Does anybody have any pointers?
