Tenets

1. Speak the Unvarnished Truth

Lie not to others, nor to yourself. That which festers in silence becomes your master. Truth may wound, but it also frees.

2. Sever What No Longer Serves You

Be unflinching in the face of death and decay. Let relationships, roles, and illusions fall when their time has come. Mercy is not always kindness.

3. Knowledge Is Sacred, Even When Forbidden

Seek out what others fear to know. Do not be silenced by doctrine, taboo, or shame. The fruit of Eden is bitter - but awakening is worth the taste.

4. Wrath Can Be Holy

Your rages, when just, is a blade. Use it not to dominate, but to defend, to destroy oppression and burn away rot. Temper your fire, but never extinguish it.

5. Embrace Shadow Without Becoming It

Your darkness is not a curse, but a companion. Know it. Name it. But never let it dictate your hand. Samael is not chaos - he is clarity through shadow.

6. Death is Sacred, Not Evil

Revere the ending as much as the beginning. Let death in all its forms - grief, transformation, loss - be met with dignity, not fear.

7. Walk Alone, But Not in Isolation

Be sovereign in your path. Do not follow blindly, even those you love. But do not deny communion - truthful bonds are the strongest form.

8. Suffering Must Mean Something

Pain is not inherently holy - but if you endure it, make it sacred. Let it shape you, teach you, and become part of your weapon.

9. Question All Thrones

Whether divine, political, or personal - no authority is immune to corruption. Samael stood at the gates of Eden not to destroy, but to challenge what was undeserved.

10. Let the Old You Die, Again and Again

You are not static. You are not trapped. Let yourself be remade a thousand times if it brings you closer to what is real. Death is the root of growth.
