"Satan" simply means opponent in Hebrew.
By "Satanism" I understand to oppose this universe witch make us suffer with no purpose. We refuse this fate and are working hard to forge our souls, to escape from this false 'reality'.
Hail Cthulhu and the Ancient Ones who gave us the opportunity to follow them on the road to godhood.
The ground is on fire upon witch you stand !

Satanism to me comes into the CoC in the form of individual intent. In that Satanism and self deification go hand in hand. We as cultists seek godhood and in the process make ourselves our own gods. Compare that to Lucifer the angel that sought to deify god and the connections should become clear.
I'm sure plenty of cultists have developed a personal approach to the Satanic part of the mythos in their paradigm. I for example consider Satan to be akin to Shub-Niggurath. but i could just easily say that Satan is more like Cthulhu or Nyarlathotep. Like i said, 'the satanic part of the mythos'. Satan is a mind set and approach, a current.
Awake!

I associate Satan in the modern incarnation with Shub-Niggurath and in the older renaissance magical incarnation with Tsathoggua.

SATAN (-ic, -ism, -ist) is method and M.O. and that is how it specifically ties in to the cult paradigm.
Should you have any other questions, let us know.

I can see how Lucifer could be considered a Modus Operandi, helping us find clues about our inner self if we aren't naturally aware of it. I like combining entities from Satanism and the Cthulhu pantheons because I feel a natural attraction towards them, often times I never fully understood until I did some introspection on why I chose to work with these beings.

I have found very profound understanding through Satan in his role as "accuser". Most humans see this in a negative light because they are always looking to pawn responsibility for their actions on to another. Satan, by contrast, puts the spotlight on their actions and will not let them rationalize them away or shift the blame.
For us who are working to Awaken, this function is imperative to the self-examination process. If we do not accept responsibility for every action and every event in our lives, we have no chance at Awakening. Putting off responsibility for our actions only puts us further to sleep and locks us in a cycle of delusion. The Satanic archetype can assist us by highlighting those parts of ourselves that are resistant to Awakening and are trying to undermine our efforts.
We can further, like Priestess Cora'sahn said, use Satan as method of thought or modus operandi. Putting ourselves in the Adversarial state of mind can create potent gnosis for us to advance our evolution.
Inha Gagh J’kasan!

Well I'm a Luciferian. I am guessing the Cult seeks Apotheosis or self deification. Lucifer sought the same and was cast down to earth. He represents our struggle here on earth, attempting to become more enlightened and knowledgable individuals capable of understanding the prison matrix we are living in and how to manipulate it through Magic Practises. Are those similar to what the Cthulhu Cult seeks? ;D

We may even be able to escape the prison one day? I think spiritual evolution is possible, the right hand paths seem set on keeping people tied to the matrix. I think when enough people wake up we may have a chance. It might even be the case we have to ascend to higher planes? I hear it said a lot by those in the new age community's and I'm always open minded to ideas that go against the norms of the societal rationality.

[teal]Basically that yes. Many cultists have worked with the Qliphoth at some point, myself included. The Cult of Cthulhu has some aspects which are very Luciferian. Though it depends largely on the cultist in question.[/teal]

Any deity is, in my opinion, only something to aspire to become like. I decide that I am my own deity that I put fate into my own hands. Cthulhu is, in my belief, a representation of our current state of being and what we strive to become. Life is a burden when we aren't free to control it, that there's always someone in the way of us finding happiness. I embrace a simple way of being, you don't bother me and I won't bother you. Seems to make the most sense as everything, from birth, understands and embraces this and so do I. Lucifer, the opponent, whatever, doesn't exist by being born into the world it's made when beings impose their will on others. That's the way I see things.
Hail Cthulhu!

(apologies if i spelled dieties wrong ) Answers please! Ia Ia Cthulhu Fhragn [glow=green,2,300]WUBAFWEZ[/glow] I am greatly intrigued by the mythologies of Satan, Lucifer, and a host of other "dark" allegorical characters (as an aside, is it interesting to anyone else that the Light Barer, Lucifer, has been relegated to the role of a "dark" character?). While my understanding of the various perspectives among Satanists and Luciferians is flawed, it seems to me that Satanists strive to disconnect themselves from the herd mentality engendered by our society, while Luciferians take it a step further and seek personal perfection in accordance to their own standards. The title of "Satanist" appears to be the term embraced by those who actively eschew the social norms in favor of self-actualization (they are going to call is "Satanic" for thinking this way, so why not use the whole symbol-set to our advantage?). The Cult of Cthulhu appears to be akin to Luciferianism in that it takes the Satanists direction a step further... Perhaps toward a kind of Nirvana where the dogmatic self created by society is destroyed, freeing a being who rises above even the alternatives to the norm to become truly self-defined. Satanism offers a symbol-set that has been created by the powers-that-be and subverted it. The Cthulhu Mythos (Yog Sothothery?) makes use of a symbol-set that is intentionally imaginary, alien, and open-ended. Just a thought.

I think you meant "... Loki by the Norse..." he always did malicious things and tested the other gods, and after a imense trouble history, it always ended well and served has a teaching for them, he was the trouble maker, and the other gods learned with the mistakes. fun fact he also is said to be the inventor of the fishing nets.

I think that Odin is a perfect parellel for Satan. Loki may have been mischievous, but he was in no way adversarial. In fact, Loki' s vengeance is what contributes to Ragnarok. Also, Loki denies what he is in order to keep company with gods of an alien tribe, and it is not until the death of his sons that he accepts his fate. On the other hand, Odin is a Prometheus character, is in constant search for knowledge, strives to prefect himself, and never acts contrary to his character. He even tries to hide his identity and is quickly recognized.
