There have been various demonologies (classifications of demons) in Christian demonology and classical occultism and Renaissance magic. Classification systems are based on the nature of the demon, the sin with which they tempt people, the month in which their power was strongest, the saints that were their adversaries, or other characteristics.

Classification by domain

It can be noted that according to each author listed below, the domain of each demon is very different (with the exception of Francesco Maria Guazzo, who seem to have copied Michael Psellus with little difference). It can also be seen that each author chooses his demons in a random form.

∞The Testament of Solomon

The Testament of Solomon is an Old Testament pseudepigraphical work, purportedly written by King Solomon, in which Solomon mostly describes particular demons whom he enslaved to help build the temple, the questions he put to them about their deeds and how they could be thwarted, and their answers, which provide a kind of self-help manual against demonic activity.The date is very dubious, perhaps 1st century to 3rd century, certainly the oldest work surviving particularly concerned with individual demons.

∞Psellus' classification of demons

This is a classification of demons prepared by Michael Psellus in the 11th century and that undoubtedly was an inspiration for the one Francesco Maria Guazzo prepared later. They are divided into Empyreal, Aerial, Subterranean, Lucifugi, Aqueous, Terrene

∞Spina's classification of demons

Alfonso de Spina, in 1467, prepared a classification of demons based on several criteria:
≈Demons of fate
Goblins
Incubi and succubi(Inccubus And Succubus/Sexual Demon)
≈Wandering groups or armies of demons
Familiars
Drudes
 ≈Demons that are born from the union of a demon with a human being.
≈Liar and mischievous demons
≈Demons that attack the saints
≈Demons that try to induce old women to attend Witches' Sabbaths
This classification is somewhat capricious and it is difficult to find a criterion for it. It seems that Spina was inspired by several legends and stories. The drudes belong to German folklore. Familiars, goblins, and other mischievous demons belong to the folklore of most European countries.
The belief in incubi and succubae (and their ability to procreate) seem to have inspired the sixth category, but it could also have been inspired in the Talmudic legend of demons having sexual intercourse with mortal women (see also Mastema).
The visions of tempting demons that some early (and not too early) saints had, perhaps inspired the ninth category (i.e. the visions of Anthony the Great).
The idea of old women attending Sabbaths was common during the European Middle Age and Renaissance, and Spina mentioned it before the Malleus Maleficarum as it is possible to see.

∞Binsfeld's classification of demons

 Peter Binsfeld prepared a classification of demons in 1589. His demon classification was based on the seven deadly sins, establishing that each one of the mentioned demons tempted people by means of one of those sins.
Lucifer: pride
Mammon: greed
Asmodeus: lust
Leviathan: envy
Beelzebub: gluttony
Satan/Amon: wrath
Belphegor: sloth

∞Guazzo's classification of demons

Francesco Maria Guazzo prepared this classification of demons based on a previous work by Michael Psellus. It was published in his book Compendium Maleficarum in 1608.
≈Demons of the superior layers of the air, which never establish a relationship with people.
≈Demons of the inferior layers of the air, which are responsible for storms.
≈Demons of Earth, which dwell in fields, caves and forests.
≈Demons of water, which are female demons, and destroy aquatic animals.
≈Demons of the underground part of the Earth, responsible of keeping hidden treasures, causing earthquakes, and causing the crumbling of houses.
≈Demons of the night, which are black and evil. These demons avoid daylight.

∞Michaelis' classification of demons

In 1613 Sebastien Michaelis wrote a book, Admirable History, in which included a classification of demons as it was told to him by the demon Berith when he was exorcising a nun, according to the author. This classification is based on the Pseudo-Dionysian hierarchies, according to the sins the devil tempts one to commit, and includes the demons' adversaries (who suffered that temptation without falling).
Note that many demons' names are exclusively French or unknown in other catalogs. St. John the Baptist and St. John the Evangelist are the two St. Johns to whom Michaelis refers. The other saints are cited only by their name without making clear, i.e., which Francis is (of Assisi?).

∞First hierarchy

The first hierarchy includes angels that were or are Seraphim, Cherubim and Thrones.
Beelzebub was a prince of the Seraphim, just below Lucifer. Beelzebub, along with Lucifer and Leviathan, were the first three angels to fall. He tempts men with pride and is opposed by St. Francis.
Leviathan was also a prince of the Seraphim who tempts people to give into heresy, and is opposed by Saint Peter.
Asmodeus was also a prince of the Seraphim and reportedly continues to be one, burning with desire to tempt men into wantonness. He is opposed by St. John the Baptist.
Berith was a prince of the Cherubim. He tempts men to commit homicide, and to be quarrelsome, contentious, and blasphemous. He is opposed by St. Barnabas.
Astaroth was a prince of Thrones, who tempts men to be lazy and is opposed by St. Bartholomew.
Verrine was also prince of Thrones, just below Astaroth. He tempts men with impatience and is opposed by St. Dominic.
Gressil was the third prince of Thrones, who tempts men with impurity and is opposed by St. Bernard.
Sonneillon was the fourth prince of Thrones, who tempts men to hate and is opposed by St. Stephen.

∞Second hierarchy

The second hierarchy includes Powers, Dominions, and Principalities.
≈Carreau was a prince of Powers. He tempts men with hardness of heart and is opposed by St.s Vincent and Vincent Ferrer
≈Carnivean was also a prince of Powers. He tempts men to obscenity and shamelessness, and is opposed by John the Evangelist.
≈Oeillet was a prince of Dominions. He tempts men to break the vow of poverty and is opposed by St. Martin.
Rosier was the second in the order of Dominions. He tempts men against sexual purity and is opposed by St. Basil.
≈Verrier was the prince of Principalities. He tempts men against the vow of obedience and is opposed by St. Bernard.

∞Third hierarchy

The third hierarchy includes Virtues, Archangels, and Angels.
Belias was the prince of Virtues. He tempts men with arrogance and women to be vain, raise their children as wantons, and gossip during mass. He is opposed by St. Francis de Paul.
Olivier was the prince of the Archangels. He tempts men with cruelty and mercilessness toward the poor and is opposed by St. Lawrence.
Olivier was the prince of the Archangels. He tempts men with cruelty and mercilessness toward the poor and is opposed by St. Lawrence.

∞Barrett's classification of demons

Francis Barrett, in his book The magus (1801), offered this classification of demons, making them princes of some evil attitude, person or thing:
Beelzebub: idolators
Pythius: liars and liar spirits
Belial: vessels of iniquity and inventors of evil things
Asmodeus: vile revenges
Satan: witches and warlocks
Merihem: pestilences and spirits that cause pestilences
Abaddon: powers of war and devastation
Astaroth: inquisitors and accusers
Mammon: tempters and ensnarers
Supernatural Fans In Indonesia THE REAL GHOST HUNTER: Demology
The ascription of malevolence to the world of spirits is by no means universal. In West Africa, the Mpongwe believe in local spirits, just as do the Inuit; but they are regarded as inoffensive in the main. Passers-by must make some trifling offering as they near the spirits' place of abode; but it is only occasionally that mischievous acts, such as the throwing down of a tree on a passer-by, are, in the view of the natives, perpetuated by the class of spirits known as Ombuiri. So too, many of the spirits especially concerned with the operations of nature are conceived as neutral or even benevolent; the European peasant fears the corn-spirit only when he irritates him by trenching on his domain and taking his property by cutting the corn; similarly, there is no reason why the more insignificant personages of the pantheon should be conceived as malevolent, and we find that the Petara of the Dyaks are far from indiscriminating and malignant, being viewed as invisible guardians of mankind.

Types

Under the head of demons are classified only such spirits as are believed to enter into relations with the human race; the term therefore includes:
  1. angels in the Judeo-Christian tradition that fell from grace,
  2. human souls regarded as genii or familiars,
  3. such as receive a cult (e.g., ancestor worship),
  4. ghosts or other malevolent revenants.
Excluded are souls conceived as inhabiting another world. Yet just as gods are not necessarily spiritual, demons may also be regarded as corporeal; vampires for example are sometimes described as human heads with appended entrails, which issue from the tomb to attack the living during the night watches. The so-called Spectre Huntsman of the Malay Peninsula is said to be a man who scours the firmament with his dogs, vainly seeking for what he could not find on Earth -a buck mouse-deer pregnant with male offspring; but he seems to be a living man; there is no statement that he ever died, nor yet that he is a spirit. The incubi and Succubi of the Middle Ages are sometimes regarded as spiritual beings; but they were held to give proof of their bodily existence, such as offspring (though often deformed). Belief in demons goes back many millennia. The Zoroastrian faith teaches that there are 3,333 Demons, some with specific dark responsibilities such as war, starvation, sickness, etc.
Demonology is the systematic study of demons or beliefs about demons. Insofar as it involves exegesis, demonology is an orthodox branch of theology. It is the branch of theology relating to superhuman beings who are not gods. It deals both with benevolent beings that have no circle of worshippers or so limited a circle as to be below the rank of gods, and with malevolent beings of all kinds. The original sense of "demon," from the time of Homer onward, was a benevolent being; but in English the name now holds connotations of malevolence.
Demons, when regarded as spirits, may belong to either of the classes of spirits recognized by primitive animism;djinn, for example, are not reducible to modified human souls; at the same time these classes are frequently conceived as producing identical results, e.g. diseases. Demonology, though often referred to with negative connotation, was not always seen as evil or devilish as the term would have one believe. that is to say, they may be human, or non-human, separable souls, or discarnate spirits which have never inhabited a body. A sharp distinction is often drawn between these two classes, notably by the Melanesians, the West Africans, and others; the Arab
The word demonology is from Greek δαίμων, daimōn, "divinity, divine power, god"; and -λογία, -logia.

Prevalence of demons

According to some societies, all the affairs of life are supposed to be under the control of spirits, each ruling a certain "element" or even object, and themselves in subjection to a greater spirit. For example, the Inuit are said to believe in spirits of the sea, earth and sky, the winds, the clouds and everything in nature. Every cove of the seashore, every point, every island and prominent rock has its guardian spirit. All are potentially of the malignant type, to be propitiated by an appeal to knowledge of the supernatural. Traditional Korean belief posits that countless demons inhabit the natural world; they fill household objects and are present in all locations. By the thousands they accompany travelers, seeking them out from their places in the elements.
In ancient Babylon, demonology had an influence on even the most mundane elements of life, from petty annoyances to the emotions of love and hatred. The numerous demonic spirits were given charge over various parts of the human body, one for the head, one for the neck, and so on.
Greek philosophers such as Porphyry, who claimed influence from Platonism, and the fathers of the Christian Church, held that the world was pervaded with spirits, the latter of whom advanced the belief that demons received the worship directed at pagan gods.
Many religions and cultures believe, or once believed, that what is now known as sleep paralysis, was a form of physical contact with demons.

Stolas. baiklah untuk kali ini kita membahas tentang demon nomor 1 yaitu Bael. 1.Bael Bael/Baal (kadang-kadang dieja Maja, Maja (Perancis), Baell biasanya diucapkan "jaminan") adalah salah satu dari tujuh pangeran dari neraka . ( Dia disebutkan secara luas dalam Perjanjian Lama sebagai idola pagan utama Fenisia, sering dikaitkan dengan kafir Asytarot dewi (tidak harus bingung dengan Astaroth ) Bael menurut Arkeologi dan Kitab Suci Ba `al berarti "tuan itu" yang memerintah atas para dewa tinggi berkumpul di gunung kudus Surga.(Sebuah Redaksi menjelaskan: ini bukan merupakan titik sepenuhnya jelas El atau. Elohim sebenarnya ayah Allah para dewa di Canon. El diminta untuk membantu Baal ketika ia dibunuh oleh Mot, dewa dunia bawah. El tidak bisa mencegah Baal kematian, tapi Baal telah dilahirkan kembali saja),Baal. terutama adalah sebuah dewa matahari, hujan, petir, kesuburan dan pertanian dan pada titik tertentu, dia menyusul dewa air, Inilah "dewa gandum" yang memungkinkan Baal untuk dilahirkan kembali.

Awalnya, dewa Semit Hadad - juga disebut Baal - dipuja oleh Aram yang membawa ibadahnya ke bagian lain dari Mediterania. Awal demonologists, menyadari Hadad atau bahwa " Ba `al "dalam Alkitab disebut sejumlah roh lokal, mulai menganggap istilah tersebut sebagai merujuk kepada satu tokoh.Sampai penggalian arkeologi di Ras Shamra dan Ebla menemukan teks menjelaskan panteon Suriah, yang Zebub Ba'al (atau Beelzebub ) sering bingung dengan berbagai Semit dewa Ba'al , dan dalam beberapa tulisan Kristen itu merujuk pada nama-peringkat tinggi atau iblis kepada Iblis sendiri.

Para ahli Alkitab menunjukkan bukti-bukti sejarah bahwa Moab menyembah Baal.dan ini mengindikasikan Pra-Islam dan Muslim menunjukkan sumber :

(a) bahwa Mekah mengambil alih berhala Hubal dari Moab.

Bael menurut Demonologi Kristen

Baal adalah setan Kristen .Menurut Kristen demonologi, Baal (biasanya dieja "Maja" dalam konteks ini, ada kemungkinan bahwa kedua angka tersebut tidak terhubung) menduduki peringkat sebagai raja pertama dan utama dalam neraka, memerintah Timur. Menurut beberapa penulis Baal adalah Duke, dengan enam puluh enam legiun setan di bawah komandonya. Istilah "Baal" digunakan dalam berbagai cara dalam Perjanjian Lama, dengan arti biasa master, atau pemilik. Dia datang untuk kadang-kadang berarti dewa pagan lokal orang-orang tertentu, dan pada saat yang sama semua berhala tanah.Hal ini juga ditemukan di beberapa tempat di Baalim jamak, atau Baal (Hakim 2:11, 10:10). Ada banyak variasi, seperti dewa matahari, dewa kesuburan, dan Beelzebub, atau tuan "lalat".

Selama Inggris Puritan periode, Baal adalah baik dibandingkan dengan setan atau dianggap asisten utamanya. Menurut Francis Barrett , dia memiliki kekuatan untuk membuat orang-orang yang memanggil dia tak terlihat, dan untuk beberapa demonologists lain kekuasaannya lebih kuat pada bulan Oktober. Menurut beberapa sumber, ia dapat membuat orang bijak, berbicara dengan suara serak, dan membawa abu di sakunya.

Sementara pendahulunya Semit adalah digambarkan sebagai manusia atau banteng , iblis Baal adalah di grimoire tradisi mengatakan untuk muncul dalam bentuk seorang laki-laki, kucing , katak , atau kombinasi daripadanya. Sebuah ilustrasi dalam Collin de Plancy s 'buku 1818 Dictionnaire Infernal agak aneh menempatkan kepala tiga makhluk ke satu set laba-laba kaki.

Gagasan Baal sebagai iblis diciptakan ketika agama Kristen berubah menjadi dewa-dewa kuno setan dan demonologi dibagi populasi setan dari neraka dalam beberapa hierarki.,dewa Semit, tak luput, menjadi sebuah entitas yang terpisah dari Beelzebub.

Okey untuk kali ini yang dibahas adalah Bael...Untuk yang lainnya menyusul.....^_^

Lucifer adalah nama yang seringkali diberikan kepada Setan dalam keyakinan Kristen karena penafsiran tertentu atas sebuah ayat dalam Kitab Yesaya. Secara lebih khusus, diyakini bahwa inilah nama Setan sebelum ia diusir dari surga.

Dalam bahasa Latin, kata "Lucifer" yang berarti "Pembawa Cahaya" (dari lux, lucis, "cahaya", dan "ferre", "membawa"), adalah sebuah nama untuk "Bintang Fajar" (planet Venus ketika muncul pada dini hari). Versi Vulgata Alkitab dalam bahasa Lain menggunakan kata ini dua kali untuk merujuk kepada Bintang Fajar: sekali dalam 2 Petrus 1:19 untuk menerjemahkan kata bahasa Yunani "Φωσφόρος" (Fosforos), yang mempunyai arti harafiah yang persis sama dengan "Pembawa Cahaya" yang dimiliki "Lucifer" dalam bahasa Lain; dan sekali dalam Yesaya 14:12 untuk menerjemahkan "הילל" (Hêlēl), yang juga berarti "Bintang Fajar". Dalam ayat yang belakangan nama "Bintang Fajar" diberikan kepada raja Babilonia yang tirani, yang dikatakan oleh nabi akan jatuh. Ayat ini belakangan diberikan kepada raja iblis, dan dengan demikian nama "Lucifer" kemudian digunakan untuk Setan, dan dipopulerkan dalam karya-karya seperti "Inferno" oleh Dante dan Paradise Lost oleh Milton, tetapi bagi para pengguna bahasa Inggris, pengaruhnya yang terbesar disebabkan karena nama ini digunakan dalam Alkitab Versi Raja James, sementara versi-versi bahasa Inggris lainnya menerjemahkannya dengan "Bintang Fajar" atau "Bintang Siang".

Sebuah nas serupa dalam Kitab Yehezkiel 28:11-19 mengenai raja Tirus juga diberikan kepada Setan, sehingga menambahkan gambaran lain kepada gambaran Setan dan kejatuhannya yang tradisional. Image of lucifer

Sleep Paralysis

I'm sure many of you have had sleep paralysis and I'm going to tell you what it is.
Sleep Paralysis has been known for a long time. Throughout the history of mankind there have been the reports of people awakening to feel a sense of weight on their chests and an inability to move their limbs to escape this pressure. People who experience this phenomena almost unanimously describe a feeling of panic and fear at their experience which can last long after the paralysis of their bodies has faded and they can move again.
 Legends have arisen in every culture as a means of explaining this sensation, now called sleep paralysis. Hebrew legends equate the night hag with Adam's first wife, Lilith (More about Lilith). More commonly the European view from the Middle Ages was that a witch or other demonic entity was sitting on their bodies and trying to entrap their souls. But whether the night hag is thought to be an old woman, witch, devil, incubi or succubi, there is rarely reported an actual visual presence and the victims are left to fear that such a thing will happen to them again.
 Modern scientific study has discovered a common feature with most of these sleep paralysis events and a physiological cause for the most pronounced symptoms. It has been discovered that during sleep the brain releases a hormone into the blood stream that will paralyze the major muscle groups to prevent locomotion. In this way, the body can rest while the mind is working its way through dreams. This hormone is designed to prevent the body from hurting itself during the unconscious sleep state.
 Those who have had too little of the hormone introduced are subject to limb thrashing and sleepwalking as the person acts out the events of their dreamsThe medical explanation of sleep paralysis is that as a person rouses from the deeper sleep cycle, the hormone will take a few moments to wear off and release the muscles of the arms and legs, thus causing a brief period where the paralysis lingers. Generally it only takes a few seconds for this to fade, but even such a brief time can cause panic in many people. That a sense of fear or dread accompanies this sensation can be understood in that one of the major triggers for sleep paralysis is extreme stress in one's life.
 While the medical profession considers all the sensations of sleep paralysis to be psychosomatic, paranormal researchers have often encountered stories of being held down or choked in places that exhibit poltergeist activity. There have been other reports, some as recent as the early 1990's, of a person's spouse entering the room where their partner is experiencing "sleep paralysis" and seen a dark shadowy form fleeing the bed of the victim.
 There has yet to be discovered a practical way to study any but the most physiological aspects of this phenomena. That it has been a fact throughout the history of man could lend weight to the totally mundane explanation. But there has also been the belief of malicious spirits bent on harming the living for as long as humans can remember. Does the truth lie somewhere in between? Could it not be equally valid that certain dark spirits use this physical effect in an effort to attack the souls of the living when they are in a defenseless position?.
 I hope this has helped people who have had sleep paralysis I am sorry for a long boring presentation.
Medieval legend claims that demons, both male and female, sexually prey on human beings. The male demon is known as an incubus and the female is the succubus. They generally prey upon the victim when they are sleeping, though it has been reported that females have been attacked while fully lucid. One such event was covered in the book and subsequent movie, The Entity.
There are variations of this sexual demonic legend. In Zanzibar, what is known as the "Popo Bawa" generally preys on men and only in their own beds. In the Chilo‚ Province of Chile, a wretched little dwarf, known as El Trauco, woos young naive women and then seduces them. Ịn Hungary, a Liderc is a demonic sexual predator that flies under the cover of darkness and will appear as a wispy apparition or a fiery light.
 Any one of the above succubus' can be blamed for unexpected or unwanted pregnancies, especially in unmarried women, though one can imagine this might be a convenient fabrication to get out of unsavory rumors!
 Some confuse the incubus with the legendary "Old Hag" syndrome but it is not. The Old Hag episode is usually restricted to a feeling of great pressure on the chest and not a ghostly sexual encounter. Another difference between the incubus/succubus encounter from the Old Hag is that the former is not always unpleasant while the Old Hag is mostly accompanied by a feeling of death, suffocation and just trying to survive.
 Because the incubus and succubus are generally experienced during the sleep state or coming in and out of it, experts feel that it is an imaginary experience and not a real one, however, telling this to the person who has just gone through it, they find that hard to believe as it feels as real as intercourse itself. Who can say for certain if these events are real or imagined but until you've experienced yourself it's hard to determine or judge.
If we adhere to theory -- ghosts are deceased humans, while demons and angels are not of earthly origin. Both are known to have stronger powers than your average ghost. You'll find a demon more apt to move objects and possess the human body, just as you'll find an angel more awe inspiring and willing to help the suffering human condition than a ghost.
 Why would a demon be stronger than a ghost, or deceased human? Depending on our beliefs, we can understand why angels, blessed with powers from higher dimensions are maybe stronger than deceased humans, but why a demon? In fact, why either entity since we too are of the same cosmic fabric? If I had an answer it would be "experience" or that they have been in that realm for so much longer. When we cross over, that is relatively new territory for many souls. For demons and angels, this is their long endured habitat and home. The demon is cunning and the angel enlightened. Really, you can think of it as a good/bad adult (demon/angel) dealing with an inexperienced child (ghost). They hold the experience we lack and are full of tricks (demons), or miracles (angels) of which either inspire or frighten us. Ị also think miracles and tricks are inherent in us too, but they are more readily accessible and producible by these beings because this is what they have been doing for many life-times. I think our abilities and faults are a microcosm of theirs.
 With this said, it doesn't mean that ghosts cannot be the very thing angels and demons are. An entity, once human, can descend or ascend into either characteristic. A child, once loved on earth, can come back and lift the spirits (literally) of those most dear to it and be called an angel. A person who has crossed over from irreparably painful circumstances can spiral into negativity and do demonic things.
 We can surmise that to be demonic or angelic, versus ghostly, is an advanced stage of positive or negative, while a ghost is more inexperienced and neutral. In time, we too will be angelic or demonic, depending on the path our soul takes.
We have all been raised with ghosts in our lives. Cartoons, stories & Legends, Halloween, and deceased relatives that we wonder about. We all die so it's part of our heritage, no matter what culture that is. We know as far back as man has been writing symbols on walls that we've contemplated spirits from another realm.
Ghosts are more than deceased people. If they were just that, there would be nothing to talk about. Crossing over to the next dimension doesn't make you a ghost. Ịt's when you come back and let your presence be known among the living. They move an object, provide a fleeting glance, come to us in our dreams, and whisper to us though we may not be able to see them. They are souls that have something to show, do or say to us.
 Why do they come back? What is so compelling to them that they are not in final rest where they are in the afterlife? I think there are many reasons. For some, it's unfinished business. For others, it's pure love. They simply don't want to let go. Something strong exists within them to want to come back to this realm to hold dear, expose or endure something strong to them. I think it applies to the living as well. Why do we cling to thoughts of those that have passed, even to those that are still living? I guarantee you it's for many of the same reasons they do. Just because we leave this dimension doesn't mean we stop being human in our thoughts and desires. What we are here is what we take with us. The same love, fear, and desires don't cease when we do.
 I think ghosts are just those souls strong enough to break through the dimensions to express their will or cling to some past. There are several ways they can do this. One of the most common are those that have just recently crossed over. Their energy is still strong enough that it's possible for them to be seen and even communicated with just a few hours or days after their departure. One might call this their etheric presence. It fades shortly after the physical perishes but it too diminishes quickly, like an aura that no longer has a host.
 Equal to the pull of love is anguish. More than not, a ghost is a person whose life ended abruptly and sometimes violently. This can be known as a haunting because they are haunted by a life now gone. The haunting is from their thoughts and their presence become testimony to that.
 If you think about it, ghosts are just you and I. What will become of us when we move on? Will we come back? Will we want to? I guess we'll find out.
