AMPRODIAS DEMONS FROM TUNNELS OF SET

Amprodias is a demon from the tunnels of the tree of death, this demon has large fangs and piercing red eyes, he is of chaos and confusion with irrational tendencies of violence, he stands tall with long white hair and a red cloak. Are you ready Armprodias he will test the soul of strength or weakness? The shattering of the veil between the worlds and the ability to see with the eye of the dragon will enhance your abilities as a human standing beside the Witch Gods. Amprodias's tunnel is connected to Thaumiel and Ghagiel. Your mind will be tested with irrational extremes using your insanity as a tool of creation and destruction. The eleven paths attributed to the element of air are demon Amprodias and his number is 401.

This number of demon Amprodias has many meanings hidden within it. Let's explore this, you may evoke his shadow with the vibration of your voice calling his name in the note of "E". Kenneth Grant suggests this in his book, Nightside of Eden. Use Parchment paper of some type of material to paint the sigil of Amprodias a luminous yellow in a square shape of emerald flacked with gold. Amprodias has many hidden meanings within his number for example the word ARR means cursing. It is the primal curse of fire of the spirit. The spirit is imprisoned in a bodily form and is described in Holy books as the wrong of the beginning, in which Kether is seen as the beginning, and the Ain or Eye of the Void is the end. Eventually, all things in my thought start with the Kether/Thanumiel and end with the Ain (knowing the Ain is the Void) the Ain is where creation began we must be mindful of this. As humans, we are born in darkness even in the womb of our mothers. Let me run with this most humans never stop to think of the understanding of being born in darkness. That same darkness stays with us throughout our lives until we die. Yet in the end, again we return to the darkness of either being buried in the ground or cremated and allowing our ashes to be flown into the wind and that wind carrying us off to another realm possibly. 

However, it's in the darkness this journey should begin at least by the time the human person is 25 or 28 because during this time when identity begins to take over which is an exercise of "mental health" for some and others refer to it as a "mid-life" change as the ride is harsh so it would be best to exercise shadow work. If you choose to work with these Tunnels you must be prepared and advanced in other magical practices I am only describing Amprodias from the point of view of Grant as I assume practiced on this path. When darkness is let in I can't imagine the ugliness of people, places, and things that can go wrong in one's life, but I have understood the feeling as I too was in darkness for many years. During this transformation, your identity is forming if you can recognize it. Well, it's not best to mix two together as a person needs to be grounded to work these Tunnels.

My understanding of the fool in the tarot is a child or adult who looks forward to a journey of the unknown, wanting to leap into the world in which our world is based on lies and illusions. As the human person dwells on planet Earth we have not come close to understanding our true self and this is why the "fool" in the tarot is so childlike ready to explore, not afraid. The tunnel associated with the tarot is Atu - 0 because the fool represents a free spirit and a new beginning. Since the path is not linear the fool can be placed at the beginning or the end of the deck as the beginning and end are an illusion. However, on the dark tree, the fool is the trickster reversing the natural order of things and abolishing all sense of what our life should be. This is when you are tested the heaviest, your actions will weigh heavy and demonstrate your true character. On this path you will need to determine the differences between the sanity you experience, what is real and what is not, and should or shouldn't, be questioned at all times. All of us are always being tested I have a high conviction of "greed" being Capricorn, just as some might have Vanity as their personal vice. It's my thought but this vice each human is guilty of will be the main test for each one of us and it will prove if our soul is worthy. It too would depend on what the intention of traveling this path will mean to you as the mage and where you want it to take you. Amprodias awaits you.
