The Ascending Flame Project

This set of rituals was the first in the series of Draconian workings designed and conducted by the temple as
open projects. At this moment it is required to complete if you want to participate in our Introductory Course and
possibly become a member of the temple.

It contains 7 workings which have to be done individually on 7 days in a row, at any chosen hour of the
evening/night. Each working expands your consciousness and prepares your consciousness for communion with
Lucifer who is the patron god of the temple and the initiator of the Ascending Flame. All of them are designed
according to the same pattern, except for the last one, which has to be designed by the practitioner alone. Do not
change or alter the workings - perform them as they are described here. After each ritual, write down
experiences, visions, or anything else that happened and keep it for your own records. When the whole project is
finished, prepare a report and send it to us at info@ascendingflame.com Include the invocation designed by you
for the seventh day and a personal introduction so that we know who you are. The report should contain at least a
couple of sentences about each day's workings, but feel free to make it as detailed as you wish. If you choose to
keep it brief, at least make it substantial.

There is no required span of time to do the project. When you receive it from us, you can start working with it
right away or you can do it at a later time. Once you send your report, you will hear from us within 7-14 days
with the feedback. If you don't hear from us at all, it probably means we haven't received your email, so please
resend the report.

If you don't feel comfortable with the idea of sharing your vision and experience, you don't have to send the
report, BUT in order to participate in the further work of the group, take part in our initiatory program, and
receive other workings and feedback from other participants and Initiates, you have to be active, open-minded,
and able to talk about your own work. Our wish and hope is to see the Draconian Current alive, not kept in
hiding in private temples, but spreading actively among the practitioners.

The completion of the project and having your report accepted by the temple gives you access to our inner work,
more advanced projects, and initiatory program.

Each day contains of the following set of workings:

- Concentration on the Key Sigil

- Invocation of the Ascending Flame
- Meditation

While the first two elements are the same all the time, the successive meditations will take you further and
deeper into communion with Lucifer and new elements will be added each day. There is no invocation or
meditation for the last day - on the seventh day you have to write your own invocation and perform it in the same
way as it was done on the previous six days. Use the same sigil, but speak your own words and let the meditation
take you to the most personal areas of your subconscious mind. Then let your consciousness merge with
Lucifer's and rise with his Ascending Flame. You may prefer to speak the words of invocation spontaneously,
flowing from your heart in the course of the ritual. In this case, write down the invocation afterwards and include
it in your report as well.

The following schedule will seem familiar to practitioners who have worked with our open projects so far, but if
you have never worked this way and you have questions about the methods, or if anything here seems unclear,
feel free to contact us. You don't need to be an advanced practitioner to take part in the project, anyone with a
genuine interest in Draconian magic and desire for spiritual ascent on the path of Lucifer's Ascending Flame is
welcome to join the workings.

Lucifer is the Light Bearer, the symbol and the patron of the age of re-awakening. He stands as the gate and the
guide to the path of self-deification, illumination, and awakening from the slumber of ignorance. He is the
initiator of the Ascending Flame and the patron god of the temple, which was founded to bring forth the gnosis
of the Light Bearer and the primal Draconian Gods. This is the gnosis of the Dragon of the Void that over the
ages has been forgotten, lost, misinterpreted, and distorted, and now it is being brought back to the world in the
form of the Draconian Current that is being earthed through individuals capable of receiving and channeling this

knowledge. The purpose of the project is to open the consciousness of the practitioner for a glimpse of this
Draconian gnosis through communion with Lucifer, which occurs both on the mundane plane and in stellar
dimensions, at his throne among the stars.

Before the invocation:

Prepare your ritual space/room/temple in the way you feel it is suitable for the work with the Lord of Flames.
You may put his statues, images, or other sigils and glyphs on the altar, or you may choose to focus on the Key
Sigil alone, without any other decorations - this choice is entirely up to you. The only tool you need for this work
is a printed or painted sigil - we recommend to paint it in golden color on a black background - on paper, wood,
or any other chosen material, big enough to gaze into comfortably. You should also have a ritual blade - a
dagger, knife, or sword - simple razor will do as well. This is because the Key Sigil has to be anointed and
activated with your own blood. It is recommended to repeat the blood offering each day, but you can also do it
on the first day only. On the Path of the Dragon blood is the substance that opens the door to the Nightside and
the gateways of the subconscious mind. If the idea of offering a few drops of your own blood puts you off, you
don't have to do it in this particular project. But more advanced projects and initiatory work on the Path of
Ascending Flame sooner or later will include the element of blood anyway. If you find such practices
unacceptable, perhaps this work is not for you. Think about it before starting this project.

After the invocation:

When you finish the words of invocation, open yourself for energies manifesting in your ritual space and in your
consciousness. Memorize the meditations and direct your initial vision according to the recommended pattern.
Then flow with the visions and explore them, but stay focused on key elements in the meditations. Write down
what you have experienced.

Day 1
Concentration on the Key Sigil

The Key Sigil

________________________________________________________________
Temple of Ascending Flame © 2012-2018 / ascendingflame.com
 
Sit in a comfortable position and put the Key Sigil in front of you. Anoint it with your blood and focus all your
attention on it. Start chanting the words: "In the name of the Dragon, Lucifer come!" You can do it aloud,
whisper, or chant the words silently in your mind. This should take at least a couple of minutes, but feel free to
take your time if you need more.

See how the lines become charged and activated with your life substance, visualize the sigil glowing and
pulsating with golden light which flashes and illuminates the room. Imagine that the sigil is alive and grows
bigger and bigger, filling the whole room with red and golden light and making the whole ritual space a huge
gateway into the Nightside. In front of you, there is a black space which looks like a door or portal, and it's
shaped like a triangle. Everything else is surrounded by red and golden flames.

Now see the sigil appearing in the middle of the black portal. It is not only the gate to the Nightside but also
connects you with other participants, members and Initiates of the temple. Visualize them as standing/sitting in
the circle around you, as black shadows with dark faces.

When you feel that the atmosphere in the room is charged with energy and your mind is ready for the
communion with Lucifer's Flames, begin the invocation.

Invocation of the Ascending Flame

In the name of the Dragon,

Primal source of all creation,
I call forth the Ascending Flame of Lucifer
To burn illusions of the world
And to open the gateways of flesh
So that my soul may rise above the mortal body
And ascend to Lucifer's throne among the Stars,
In the pillar of fire
On the wings of the Dragon
And through the ancient current of forgotten gods.
Lucifer, Lord of Flames,
Ignite my soul from within!

Meditation

Focus on the atmosphere in the room. See the flames, feel their warmth and watch the fire arising all around. The
air tastes metallic and carries the scent of blood. Focus your attention on the black triangle portal. You can do it
with your eyes open if your sight is accustomed to astral energies. Otherwise, close your eyes and let the image
build up in your inner vision. Visualize the fiery figure of the Lord of Flames forming in the black space, in the
middle of the room. He looks demonic, with horns on his head, red fiery skin and burning amber eyes. Welcome
him in your temple and ask him for guidance on the path. When you feel it's time to end the meditation, return to
your mundane consciousness.

Day 2
- Concentration on the Key Sigil
- Invocation of the Ascending Flame
- Meditation

Start the meditation with the visualization of Lucifer's fiery form, like on the previous day. When you feel his
presence and see his fiery shape forming in the triangle, welcome him in your temple. Visualize that he is
standing very close and he can easily touch you with his fiery hand. Let him touch your forehead and mark it
with the glyph of an eye. Feel the burning sensation in your third eye which spreads rapidly over the whole body.
Focus on the heat rising from the base of your spine and ascending to your forehead. See how your astral body
transforms into the shape of a fiery snake which rises like a pillar of fire. And when the stream of fire reaches
your third eye, see the wings rising from your back and your whole astral body becomes a fiery dragon. Enjoy
this feeling for a while, then return to your mundane consciousness.

 Day 3
- Concentration on the Key Sigil
- Invocation of the Ascending Flame
- Meditation

Again, start the meditation with previous visualizations and the transformation into the dragon form. Focus now
on how it feels to be a dragon: enjoy the fire and power flowing through your body and soul. You can also use
your dragon eyes now and see through barriers and illusions of the world. Look around, watch the differences in
your perception of the world. See the surrounding room and all objects glowing with their own light, vibrating
with energy. See the darkness of the Void pouring into the room through the black portal and gateways existing
around which are shattered by your flaming gaze. Feel the breath of the Dragon, the primal force in the universe,
entering the room, awakening the desire to fly through worlds and dimensions. Focus your mind on the wish to
experience the same in dreams this night. Then return to your mundane consciousness.

Day 4
- Concentration on the Key Sigil
- Invocation of the Ascending Flame
- Meditation

Start with the previous meditations, getting to the point where you left before. Focus for a while on the seething
breath of the Dragon entering your ritual space. Breathe in the same rhythm and let your mind slip into an
ecstatic trance. Then look at Lucifer in the black portal. When your eyes meet his, he suddenly disappears and
you feel that you are being drawn into the black portal, into the night. Fly through the night, crossing barriers
between the mundane world and stellar dimensions. Ascend to the stars on the flaming dragon wings and see
thousands of pathways to the throne of Lucifer. Enjoy the trance and when you feel ready to return to your room,
open your eyes and finish the meditation.

Day 5
- Concentration on the Key Sigil
- Invocation of the Ascending Flame
- Meditation

Return to the stellar realm in which you will now have to choose one of the pathways leading to the throne of
Lucifer among the stars. As you fly through the night, you can see it in the distance as a pillar of fire. And as you
get closer, you notice golden stairs leading upwards, high into the stars. Focus for a while on the journey to the
throne, see the flames rising around you as you climb the stairs. And finally reach the top of the stairs and face
the throne itself. It's huge, golden and majestic. Tongues of red and golden fire are all around and the whole
scenery is beautiful and breathtaking. Focus for a moment on this feeling, then return to your mundane
consciousness.

Day 6
- Concentration on the Key Sigil
- Invocation of the Ascending Flame
- Meditation

Continue the previous meditations until you get to the point where you left. Focus for a while on the surrounding
scenery as you look at Lucifer's throne and call him to come. See how he emerges from the flames and touches
your forehead again. This time the eye is marked not on your flesh but on your soul. Feel yourself filled with
Lucifer's Flames, enjoy the ecstatic sensation which overwhelms you as the eye is imprinted on your soul. When
the trance is over, return to your mundane temple. Meditate for a moment on what you have experienced. Feel
the flames burning in your soul, forever changed by Lucifer's touch. Envision yourself as a living manifestation

of the Ascending Flame which will from now on guide you on your path. End the meditation and return to your
mundane consciousness.

Day 7
- Concentration on the Key Sigil
- Personal Invocation of Lucifer and his Ascending Flame
- Meditation

There is no guided meditation for the final working. You can repeat the meditations from the previous six days
as a whole or you can simply open yourself for visions of Lucifer's Flames and let the experience carry you to
his stellar Throne. Make this day personal for you and think about your first steps on the path of the Ascending
Flame. Take a look at your visions and experiences from the whole project and consider your further work on the
path, or maybe you'll decide now that this is not a work for you. Let the final day be the time of reflections and
perhaps new inspirations in your pursuit of spiritual ascent.
