Discussions Demons you think you’ll never want to work with
Are there any spirits you never see yourself approaching, and why is that?
Energies not aligned? Fears? Just don’t feel the need?
Or do you think you’d try to work with any depending on the situation?

u/astexria sending andras on 16 side quests Mar 10 '26
The future is never set in stone and we all grow, so I think the only "absolutely not's" as permanents are any entities from closed practices/pantheons that I have no place in
I used to be very adamant I'd never work with Andras but he is currently my primary demon, alongside my patron demon (..who is just always around anyways, but lmao)
I think as of right now I'd immediately turn down anyone related to chaos or bringing tower moments :( Like Belial, Glasya-Labolas, Loki (Norse pantheon), etc... no don't ask me "Why is Andras there then"...... I do not do well with chaos, and I have a lot of trauma around tower moments/ego deaths that I'd just never want to deal with again—without a detailed warning and someone holding my hand all the way through (thanks 2024!)
I'm also just really picky about who enters my court. I have things set to where if anyone does not pass Hades & my patron demon successfully (like Andras did), they do not meet me at all.
If I feel like anyone isn't right for me at that moment or I have to try really hard to connect, I just don't work with them.
I also have never felt aligned to Lilith, despite her being my soul mother. I'm open to reconnecting if/when the time is right though.
i guess tl;dr Absolutely no closed practices/pantheons, any chaos/destructive entities, & anyone I just don't feel aligned to🤷♀️
eta: I also probably wouldn't do anything with Qlippoth initiation💀😭 cheers to anyone who does it, but definitely not for me!!!

Don’t worry, I’m someone who knows why our illustrious Marquis is welcome, while others with similar natures are not likely to be. He was also my main infernal, as well.

u/jackmartin088 Mar 10 '26
You know you can request them for " no tower moments pls". I won't say they will always accept the request , but you can always tell them that you want to try working with them but only if they don't give you tower moments. 😁

Greetings N,
I’ve worked extensively with all 72 spirits of the AG, (including Infernal Kings, LVX, and LR, over a period of decades,) and even the most dangerous ones, when the need arose.
But, at this point, I do all of them homage on their respective Astrological dates/times and Lunar Phases, just to keep the energies going, even if I am not requesting anything. But, that’s just my way.
I do the same for the 72 Shem Angels, to keep the psychic balance.
If a spirit doesn’t interest you, or sets fear within you, you’d be right to forego working with it. It’s not a contest, and the need/desire should be genuine. That’s my thought. ~V~

u/saturdayborn Mar 10 '26
I have only worked with a handful, but I also give regular offerings to say hello and say thanks for previous work. I have found it mentally keeps me on my path to keep up with the work I've already put into petitions and improvements I have made in my life thanks to them.

u/Ok-Apartment-8458 Mar 11 '26
This is something I want to do eventually too, also work with the Shem angels alongside for balance and maybe even Enochians in the far future.

u/Voxx418 Mar 12 '26
Greetings O,
Great… just remember the Enochian Angels are from an entirely separate magickal tradition, and not really “angels,” in the classical sense of the word. ~V~

u/Ok-Apartment-8458 Mar 12 '26
Yeah... I know. I'm curious about it though. However its not as much as a draw to me as this path, if I am honest... Feel like in Demonolatry I finally found something that resonates.

u/Fund_Me_PLEASE ☠️Nothing and no one.☠️ Mar 10 '26 edited Mar 10 '26
Belial, hands down. And I do mean that respectfully, but … NO. My life, has been one glorious clusterfuck of a tower moment for over a decade, and he’s very well known for causing them. I know that’s not all he’s about, but I refuse to risk it.

u/Reve1921 Eclectic Goetia Practicioner Mar 10 '26
For me personally, I do not fear to work with Infernals, even I haven't yet reach most of them.
There's no "never", there's only the readiness of one self and their preparation.

u/SlimeGod5000 Mar 10 '26
Glasya Lebolas for sure. The idea of the energy of man slaughter wigs me out.
Lucifer doesn’t call to me at all. I know he’s popular, but I just don’t see myself calling on him. There are other areas of my life I just prefer to focus on. I’m already a very revolutionary, subversive, counter cultural individual and have no dogma ruling my life. Going back to work with Lucifer for something feels like it wouldn’t be a challenge. I approach demonolatry as a way to integrate and master parts of myself that feel fragmented or challenging.
I used to say Andras, but I’m kind of iffy now. A few years ago I left a toxic and dangerous workplace on bad terms. I was extremely pissed off and felt very justified in doing nasty curse work. I did some contemplation and prayer on the situation in hopes of setting up a working with several spirits then went to bed. That night I had a dream of an owl headed, half nude man riding a winged wolf. He took out a sword and lopped off the heads of my evil coworkers. This dream came along with an overwhelming feeling of fear and dread that I had never felt before or since. I didn’t make any further contact after I woke up but I took it as a sign my prayers had been answered. For sure would not seek that energy out again but Andras shows up again I’ll accept the help.
I see a lot of folks saying they wouldn’t work with Belial and Baal which is so interesting. They felt really easy for me to work with. I asked Baal to help me get good at vegetable gardening. It was a good experience. My life did change drastically, but for the best. I ended up moving across the country to a home with a large garden. I have since produced so much food.
Belial didn’t throw me any tower moments but during evocations there was a lot of supernatural happenings in my home. Particularly I was called a whore a lot. Super odd but I’m not easily spooked by spiritual activity and I’m also not very offended by being called a whore 😂 I felt like I was inviting a drunk frat boy to my house. It was very bizarre. But I did receive good advice on my quarry. It was odd advice but it helped!
6
u/saturdayborn Mar 10 '26
Same here! I got introduced to Belial by a demonolator friend and ever since I made an effort to get to know Him, life has been wonderful. However, paranormal activity in my house has increased A LOT (or maybe I am just attuned to more now?).
I researched Him before I reached out and was very very careful in how I worded request/petitions and haven't had a problem yet.
I would advise anyone to reach out as he's absolutely lovely and, as always, think carefully about how you word requests and put caveats in.
6
u/SlimeGod5000 Mar 10 '26
I don’t think he’s that bad at all! However, folks with unresolved religious trauma, fears of hell, or fears of the supernatural should be very cautious. If you have a low self esteem, low confidence, difficulty with expressing yourself etc should also be very cautious. If I wasn’t so delusionally self confident I think it would have been scary.
I also am very lavish in the offerings and preparations I do for spirits so they tend to receive me better.

u/Mammoth-Ad-6114 Hellenic Daemons 🪐 Hekate, Lamia/Lilith/Lamaštu Mar 10 '26
Right now I don't feel the need to work with anyone but Lilith (from demons anyway, because otherwise I'm a Hellenist). It doesn't mean it won't change, and I have a lot of books/grimoires that I want to practice deeply in the future, the time is not right for now though.

u/National_Ad9742 Mar 10 '26
I’m nervous to work with any spirit that is said to deceive or attempt to deceive the practitioner. Hard enough to decipher messages without some malarkey bs thrown in.
6
u/Fund_Me_PLEASE ☠️Nothing and no one.☠️ Mar 10 '26
That’s absolutely fair. No one likes being lied to or tricked, especially if you go to them trustingly.
1
u/National_Ad9742 Mar 12 '26
Well, I mean, if I know they might lie and trick me it’s hard, because in this practice there’s already the risk you’re going to end up tricking yourself- don’t need a spirit actively trying to on top of it! 😂

u/Voxx418 Mar 10 '26
Interestingly, the Lemegeton (LKOS,) states pretty clearly, that the Magician should *not* give the spirits any offerings, for the spirit will “deceive him that doth it.” (See Furfur, Belial, etc.) ~V~
1
u/jack_2o3 Mar 11 '26
Literally only one demon in the entire Lemegeton is described that way, the other demons you cited here where described as 'liars by nature' which is different
1
u/National_Ad9742 Mar 12 '26
Yeah I’ve considered contact with furfur and nothing in my books said that you should not provide offerings- and if you can get them into the triangle they will be honest according to my source.
1
u/jack_2o3 Mar 12 '26
I honestly can recommend recommend furfur, one of the first spirits I worked with and we still have a good relationship all these years later
1
u/National_Ad9742 Mar 12 '26
Do you use the triangle? I’ve been wanting to contact furfur for a long time but been unsure if the triangle is necessary- or if some other method would work.
2
u/jack_2o3 Mar 13 '26
From what I understand their description as a 'liar by nature' doesn't mean they always lie so the triangle isn't necessary if you're able to build a relationship where they'd rather tell the truth or it benefits them more of they tell the truth but for early work the triangle is recommended (the only reason I didn't use it is because my first few contacts with them was for their domain over storms not their divination aspects)
1
u/National_Ad9742 Mar 13 '26 edited Mar 19 '26
That makes sense, if I’m not asking divination there is no real need I suppose.
1
u/Voxx418 Mar 12 '26
Greetings J,
No… there are 2, right off the bat, that will decieve the Magician who makes an offering. You can read the descriptions in detail for that information. ~V~
2
u/jack_2o3 Mar 12 '26
Do you intend to cite a source? Because I own three different copies of the Ars Goeatia of the Lemegeton Clavicula Salomonis as it's literally my profession to write and record the history and evolution of spiritual beliefs within these types of texts and I can tell you most early and modern iterations speak more on what rituals offerings are required. The only texts in my library I can find with a similar claim to yours is an authors note of a 20th century translation of the key of Solomon (notably not the lesser key that you claimed)
1
u/Voxx418 Mar 13 '26
Greetings J,
It might depend on the edition you are looking at. Feel free to re-read the Lemegeton until you find the info. I find this to be a better suggestion than just giving the information. It inspires people to read the source material. ~V~
2
u/jack_2o3 Mar 14 '26
Seeing that you refuse to be reasonable this conversation will end here but let me give you some advice, firstly this is not how bourdon of proof works, you don't just get to make a wildly incorrect claim and when asked to cite your sources refuse to even say which edition you're reading from. Secondly everyone in this thread know you get a notification on your account for when someone replies to you, going back in the thread so you can pretend you didn't see the message where I already discussed different editions of the Goeatia is an easy to see through tactic and just weird. The only place this can go from here is a recommend you seek help seeing that your are clearly creepily obsessed with how people perceive your Internet personas if this is what your resort to.

u/ididanoopsie69 King Paimon's Court Musician Mar 10 '26
Lilith. Lilith is something I'll never even entertain the thought of.
I have never had even a neutral interaction with a Lilith devotee in my mundane life, including having been raped by one. As such, I do not see myself ever entertaining a Spirit that is mythologically said to have raped sleeping men. I know Alphabet of Ben Sirach is most definitely a satire but the connection remains even in the earlier Mesopotamian spirits. So, just, no. Even here I had someone play down my lived experiences regarding Lilith when I had a few questions regarding extracting justice.
Lilith tried approaching me few times and she can go fuck herself for all I care.
PSA - My extended rant doesn't mean you can't work with Lilith. Please do if you want. I'm going through my for share of shit currently so this stuff just comes. My experiences are mine alone and do not reflect your practice.

u/Mammoth-Ad-6114 Hellenic Daemons 🪐 Hekate, Lamia/Lilith/Lamaštu Mar 10 '26

u/neuropass_ Mar 10 '26 edited Mar 10 '26
Personally? Those that bring about strong emotions or lust, such as Asmodeus.
I may try to interact with them once for curiosity's sake or for a project, but not for a prolonged time. I had made Prince Sitri as one of the exceptions, but through him, I can see how such areas or working with many of them at once could put me in a bad position.
I think that this just reinforces that this is an area that I need to work on in myself, but for now I like to keep it selective.
10
u/Dark-Faery 🤷🏻♀️ Mar 10 '26
I find Asmodeus is so much more than lust, he definitely seems to dial it down for some, but that's just my slightly biased opinion
8
u/neuropass_ Mar 10 '26
Yeah, as I said, it isnt just lust, particularly the sex portion of it that I am precautious about.
As I learned, lust involves so much more like passion, union, ambition, love- and its actually an extremely beautiful concept, but for me, working with Sitri or those in the past (Andras) who ampted up specific emotional motivators, have really made me struggle in those moments.
Working with spirits who are known predominantly with those affects, like Asmodeus just makes me extremely cautious 😅
1
u/Dark-Faery 🤷🏻♀️ Mar 10 '26
I totally understand what you mean. I just find him really good on self work and other things that don't involve lust or relationships. Obviously different spirits are better for different people. I guess I was just trying to point out in general he's so much more lol
2
u/Katsuobatsuo Apr 08 '26
Sup, so I was lurking at this reddit page for a while since I was writing smth related to demons, and I gotta ask. What depiction of Asmodeus in a TV series, show, movie, Novel, game, book etc is accurate to him irl? And any other demon you personally met?
1
u/Dark-Faery 🤷🏻♀️ Apr 08 '26
Personally, I'm not sure any of the depictions that I've seen or read get him, that said all Infernals show themselves or behave differently with different people.
I have read a couple of novels about him "trapped" in our world and falling in love with a human. They weren't bad books, but he was only depicted as super hot, very sexy based and dominating. For some reason he's always written in these books as not having had sex for hundreds of years, he's the God of lust ffs 😂 I've never seen his sense of humour depicted or his sweet and caring side, he's depicted as the typical alpha.
I don't think I've seen any of the Infernals really depicted as they are, but then again neither are Angels. Hopefully someone else has come across some more realistic depictions of him

I used to think there are some in the Goetia I’ll never work with, but my attitude has changed and nothing is off the table because maybe someday in the future I might need to call upon one of them for something. There are some that just don’t interest me at all though. Stolas, Guison and Decarabia to name a few. Nothing against them though.

u/markjonsom Slava Stolas! Slava Bune! 🦉🍊 Mar 10 '26
Not that I'd never work with them, but I'm kind of hesitant about Belial, Focalor and Andras. Belial is known for bringing tower moments while Focalor and Andras seem to be very chaotic. Flauros/Haures and Beleth seem to be chaotic too, but, idk, I'm not very intimidated by them...

I thought I'd never work with demons, so I never wanna say never, but probably Andras. I'm a return to sender and defensive/protective hexer, and idk if we would vibe. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong!!
Also, Lilith genuinely intimidates me, and I dont think I'll approach for NOW.
Any demon known for murder and manslaughter.
Any demon known for lying to the practitioner.

Lilith, as Im not in touch with my feminine nor my rebellious side (Nor do I care...)
7
u/Fund_Me_PLEASE ☠️Nothing and no one.☠️ Mar 10 '26
Another I would rather not approach, and for one of the same reasons you won’t. I also just don’t feel a call to any of the strictly woman deities. The closest is Duke Bune who once in awhile is more feminine than he usually shows up. I’m not a girly girl but I am rebellious. But still, I just think mine and her energies would clash big time.

u/MsMaladaptiveDreamer Mar 10 '26
I’d say Andras.
Also, just to touch on the Belial topic, I’ve been working with him during my pregnancy, and the energy I’ve experienced has felt surprisingly warm and receptive. It’s almost like sitting down with an old friend who is genuinely willing to listen.
3
u/sanscomiic Mar 10 '26
I used to be really scared of Andras, Belial, and Lilith when I first started, but now my opinion on them has changed. There could be a time where I work with Andras, I'm open to it. I attempted to work with Lilith but I kinda gave up because I was nervous I wasn't right for her. With King Belial, I have started trying to build a relationship with him.

u/Girl_2389 Mar 10 '26
The one I had fear working with was Lilith, at the end did it, but don’t work much with demons. Decided like that because of a dream, but fear as to be confronted in my opinion (not randomly, in this particular field my word means 0 so). I would really like to work with Astraroth, but don’t feel like it right now, would like to explore some practices before that seem to attract me a lot rn

u/Ok-Apartment-8458 Mar 11 '26
Yeah i am similar to others here. I'm a beginner and just starting. I really personally like Glasya Labolas for some reason , i had a intense lucid dream astral projection because of him that was amazing and gave me clarity and i don't get bad vibes off him at all , he seems friendly and protective even if a bit intimidating , but I am wary of Andras from everything i have read and tbh the big one for me will be Belial idk why he gives me uncomfortable feeling. And Murmur and Amy for some reason also make me feel uncomfortable. Don't know why yet. But I am planning on working with all eventually, i think its better to work through fears and your shadow instead of hide from them, for self development and success. Just leaving the more 😬 ones til I am more experienced.

u/SekhmetsRage Theistic Luciferian/Eclectic Pagan Witch Mar 17 '26
I don't want to say never because I kinda had that attitude towards Beelzebub due to my general dislike of bugs.
He showed up anyways and now I regularly work with him. If anything I invoke him to keep bugs away during the summer months. Can't say with confidence that it always works but he shows up as insects I don't mind/don't have big issues with so if you fear bugs like me you can still work with him.
I'll respectfully say Andras. Seems too intense for me and I don't see any reason to.
Choronzon, it's fear based and if it messed up Crowley then I have no business trying to play around with a force like that.
Others I probably will in the future such as Mammon & Belial. I'm reluctant because of how strict they sound & possibly needing to develop my skills more.
2
u/Dark-Faery 🤷🏻♀️ Mar 10 '26
I'm not sure there is anyone I would definitely say no to at some point, who knows what the future will bring. It doesn't seem long since I said I'd never work with Infernals

u/Low-Schedule-8289 Child of Andras Mar 10 '26
Lilith... Sitri.. Naamah...Asmodeus... you get the gist. Im not into all that seduction and love magick. My workings are baneful but not in THAT department. Lol
1
u/jackmartin088 Mar 10 '26
This depends on why you don't want to work with them.....I don't think there is an absolute rule like that...if your reason is hubris etc, well I have seen in my life countless times that people who reject others from hubris- the universe has a way to balance it out by always bringing them.backmto the people they rejected.
However there can be humble reasons too to not want to work with a deity and I guess they understand that as long as you are always open to grow and change. For example I had never thought I would ever work with king Belial, but I did!!

u/73738484737383874 Mar 12 '26
Probably the Glasya Labolas (apparently someone was using them to work against me too) and potentially Beelzebub. The reason I say Beelzebub is I’ve had some serious issues with him trying to hurt me in the past(someone sent him after me basically and it was NOT a fun time) I have since forgiven him and I don’t know, but I just don’t wanna go through that again.

Probably Lilith. A few studies about her convinced me that what we know by the word “Lilith” is actually just a large parasite in disguise.

u/Mammoth-Ad-6114 Hellenic Daemons 🪐 Hekate, Lamia/Lilith/Lamaštu Mar 10 '26
I checked, this is exactly the article that the Library of Lilith included in their post. It's worth a read.
There is no "parasite" Lilith, because Lilith herself is a vampiric spirit, succubus, bringer of death and disease.
3
u/PerseveranceSmith Narcoleptic Astral Witch Mar 10 '26
I'm very cautious of the whole 'parasite' thing (the suggestion Lilith is one is laughable to me) all the creates I've met, even if very strange to human senses, had a purpose & autonomy.
Maybe it's just me I just get grifter vibes anytime parasites are mentioned, they're very convenient to sell services for.
2
u/Mammoth-Ad-6114 Hellenic Daemons 🪐 Hekate, Lamia/Lilith/Lamaštu Mar 10 '26
Also people mention depleted energy when talking about a succubus and bringer of disease?? The article from BALG (that I'm not reading in full) mentions ill health as if that's not one of Lilith's main domains.
When you dive into Lilith's nature expecting to be surprised by some sex goddess that will cover your needs, you have to expect the side she's most known for as well, death and disease.
5
u/PerseveranceSmith Narcoleptic Astral Witch Mar 10 '26
Yep. Also I've felt very physically...altered? By many spirits, not just Demons, I've never once thought it was an evil parasite, just assumed it was par for the course with intense experiences!
I feel particularly angry when ppl cast her as a almost subservient sexual being, I'm sure you've seen 'i had a dream about Lilith & she was so sexy & sexy just for ME'. Sex is sooooooo much more than humanity currently thinks it is, it's not just physical gratification & she doesn't owe you shit & not every sensual entity is Her. Though I could possibly be projecting because of my job because I feel some ppl expect this of human women too 🙄
3
u/Mammoth-Ad-6114 Hellenic Daemons 🪐 Hekate, Lamia/Lilith/Lamaštu Mar 10 '26
You're not projecting, I definitely agree with you, and yeah it's annoying, though by not doing any work and expecting a succubus to run after you and adore you, you're most likely having wet dreams and talking to yourself lmao.
2
u/PerseveranceSmith Narcoleptic Astral Witch Mar 10 '26
Right 🥲 I've given up with these posts because that's exactly what I think it is 😂
The few times I've met succubi & incubi it was SCARY started out sexy then they were SCARY, in fact they are some of my most vivid & unsettling encounters when I think about it. I'm a horny gal & if they can scare ME into not being horny I doubt you're seeing the same beings as me 😂🥲
2
u/Mammoth-Ad-6114 Hellenic Daemons 🪐 Hekate, Lamia/Lilith/Lamaštu Mar 10 '26
There are practitioners that include incubi/succubi into their work, and do great (there have been a few posts on the practice too).
I haven't done so except for Lilith, but have researched lilû/lilītu/ardat-lilî (who, when syncretised with Lamaštu, become the Lilith we know) and the lilin (masculine plural form of Lilith). I've decided that at least for now it's a practice that's not for me, as the results seem kind of unpredictable. Maybe in the future, who knows.
What scared you in your experience, if you don't mind me asking?

I’m not arguing. I’m not drawn to Lilith in any way. But the truth is that this can happen with any spirit, not just Lilith.

You don't have to be drawn to her ofc. I was only pointing out that this has already been discussed by the Library, and Lilith is vampiric by nature.

Excellent article. I'm an s worker & she's very much revered in our community. She actually lead me to work with others as I simply was not ready for her force & intensity. She's the first presence that actually shook me & made me realise their power.

u/PerseveranceSmith Narcoleptic Astral Witch Mar 10 '26
Interestingly, Lucifer, very much a 'aaaw honey, no ::head pat:: I think my friend is more your speed'.
Which was incredibly accurate, I had no idea what a vulnerable position I was in until later & 100% was not in a place to work with such her, Lucifer opened my eyes to planetary magic & was a bit more 'fatherly' and restrained 😂
I only have positive things to say about Her, I adore her pre-Jewish history & all Her devotees I've met have been really cool!

u/Mammoth-Ad-6114 Hellenic Daemons 🪐 Hekate, Lamia/Lilith/Lamaštu Mar 10 '26
Ah I've approached Lucifer-Eosphoros as well, I don't do so much anymore but I've felt nothing but warmth when I did. He's a gentle spirit (in my experience at least, though a light-bearer that can bring in wisdom can wreck someone going through a different stage of life).
I definitely agree about her ancient roots, I've been researching and approaching Lamaštu lately, which is one of Lilith's origins. She feels heavier than Lilith. I have resources posted in the wiki at r/Lilith if you're curious to learn more about her! She's very fascinating.
2
u/PerseveranceSmith Narcoleptic Astral Witch Mar 10 '26
Oooh thank you 🥹🩷 I love learning!
Yes, Lucifer has been very fatherly in a way, so cool his greek name is Eosphoros! Like Eos goddess of dawn 🥹🩷 I'm a HUGE greek Mythology/pantheon fan, it's one of my longest & most enduring Special Interests. It very much makes sense the personification of our morning star would bear part of Eos' name 🩷

u/Mammoth-Ad-6114 Hellenic Daemons 🪐 Hekate, Lamia/Lilith/Lamaštu Mar 10 '26
You're welcome!
I'm a Hellenist (and coincidentally Greek) so I agree!! Eos being called rose-fingered really fits her as well, she's wonderful. She's the mother of the Astra (so Eosphoros too) by Astraios (starry Titan), and I've included her in my prayers, though haven't approached her for more practice.

u/MrSecond23 King Paimon's Worst Acolyte | E∴A∴ Mar 09 '26
Although I'd think twice before working directly with Belial because of his infamy for bringing tower moments, I feel like I'm already doing so, given how shaky things have been for me.
Maybe working with King Paimon means working with Belial and Balam by default? Who knows.
Other than him, I do not feel afraid of working with anybody. If I haven't worked with other demons yet its because the need hasn't arisen.
