Great episode, Angela! Just so folks know, the modern Hebrew word for whale is "לוויתן" though I'm not quite sure if that was the innovation of Ben Yehuda or prior (He also used "חשמל" as the word for electricity which is also super interesting and hilarious).
Justin Sledge is also the coolest of all. Am I right in my analysis that Daimon the positive term was twisted into a negative term and the coal pressured/boiled like Alchemy concept, oh the suffer we hold, so, Judaism is my basis of Gnostic Faith, Sufism, same thing, Jesus's revolutionary Sufism/Judaism in the post-Babylon enslavement, his way is the exact same thing. I was in India in 2015/16 volunteering 4-5 weeks over Christmas at Mother Theresa's Missionaries of Charity in Kolkata/Calcutta, and there I suddenly realized that Abraham can be traced to Brahmanism, Atman, Adam, etc.... Shiva and Kali? Wow, tough chick. Hope I didn't offend you by questioning Judaism's possible takeover and tarnishing of DAIMON the term/concept. Surely ISIS was stolen recently in our own lifetime and the Egyptian Goddess, she and Nuit are like my Divine Mother/Divine Promise all around and all abounding. But these Imperial Wizards think they can steal the name ISIS?? growl. Swastika same thing, was stolen from Indian subcontinent cultures that have been labelled into different divisive themes for profitability and geo-political gain. So Daimon, the term, it was stolen/ruined by Judaism following and even before the Babylon enslavement it seems as sort of evident in what I learned on Esoterica, Angela's Symposium and Religion for Breakfast. I think this is very likely that Daimon was intentionally tarnished as to destroy competing cultures. Haitian Declaration of Independence in 1799, that is a case study in bulletproof Divine Grace, just like when the Jewish people escaped tyranny in Egypt, special supernatural protection is there for you. It is meant to be there for each and all through all time I believe. We are all children of God, and all of us are equal. We have to be the Archangels, we have to restore trust, hope, and conditions for each and all to thrive. Psalm 63 is special to me and meant to help those caught in destitute conditions.
Can you do a broader discussion on Dragons, please? Like, where the concept comes from and the symbolism involved through the ages by different cultures?
I just learned of the Leviathan cross. 😊 I never know what that was. I also bet that Leviathan is so popular, because people like me love to hear stories of Dragons, Demons, exc. Awesome video. 🐲🐍🐉
Leviathan is female?! :D Leviathan's name is used in many black metal songs, so I've always been curious. Another lovely, informative video. Thanks, Angela!
Yes Leviathan is female while Behemoth is male. I have heard Leviathan is the Goddess Tiamat. But idk how I feel about that and haven't confirmed it myself
@@aharonbaalshem she’s a different creature than Tiamat. Tiamat is an allegory of salt water which Leviathan could also be used as but they are not the same story.
"There's always a bigger fish", I believe there are old Egyptian stories of Horus slaying a sea monster/crocodile/something like that, as a principal antagonist, which might be somewhat relevant.
@@drangelapuca Up until recently, at least, he has been teaching. University of Stockholm, if I remember correctly. Either way, the juggling of an academic career along with the rigours of helming a successful, & fairly cutting-edge, magickal order would make for an interesting & beneficial conversation between two colleagues. I've only seen/heard him interviewed by those outside of an academic establishment.
I was big into chaos magick and qliphoth as a teenager. Maybe it was my rebellion phase to try the left hand path but eventually realize I don't really resonate with dark energies that much.
Excellent research! I have read from at least one source that this concept may pre-date Marduk, as some scholars believe that Marduk’s Name was substituted for another in some Ancient Writings. You may want to check that out. Thank you Angela. Blessed Be.
As an aside, the red dragon symbolism is ever present in the British monarchy, I wonder about the roots of this symbolism and the significance to present day events both esoteric and exoteric. Thank you again, your channel is truly food for thought. 🦹♀️
Thank you. I only knew of Leviathan from video games as a teen. Then picked up more from the bible. Never thought much more than it being part of creation stories and a first example of a sea serpent. This was interesting, and I appreciate you taking the time.
Hi Angela, great video as usual! One thing I disagree with is Hobbes' interpretation of Leviathan as being that of a whale, I believe that the quote from the frontpiece of the work (in addition to the actual text) points to a closer association with "power"/"strength" as concepts than any terrestrial creature. Apologies if I misunderstood
You mention (1:28) that the Ugaritic names for Leviathan have a circular reference. Might this indicate that the source in the natural world is a whirlpool? Note the Greek myth of Scylla and Charybdis in which Charybdis was a whirlpool. Another origin may possibly be the tsunami generated by the explosive eruption of Thera around 1600 BCE. The wave destroyed or decimated settlements on neighboring islands and on Crete but certainly the effects of this wave, which could have been 30 meters high, would have been significant throughout the eastern Mediterranean. It's also interesting that water is both a source of life and a destructive force, therefore both good and evil. Because water is so essential for life, its destructive aspect must be manifested as a being that manipulates it for evil. You chose a thought provoking topic for your symposium. Good choice and well presented.
The shoresh (root) for the word לוה means something like "coiled" or "joined by twisting" (note the Ugaritic (𐎍𐎚𐎐 - ltn) has the same -n ending meaning "that one that is" so literally we have "the coiled one" or more literally "the one joined by twisting" so I think the reference here is to something like a sea snake, despite the modern Hebrew word meaning "whale."
Just looked up The Sacred Book of Abramelin the Mage!! Thank the Gods for pdf or I'd never have the greatest pleasure of reading some of the book I've recently learned of. Thankyou for this video!! May Magick & Adventure always be around You 🔥🔱
So, Leviathan is considered a separate being than the Zoroastrian Tiamat? Another connection that comes to mind is the Norse Jormungandr, the World Serpent.
Pray to the lightning God to banish excessive rains and flooding from Leviathan/Tiamat. Or pray to Leviathan to banish too much lightening. Neither are evil.
@Angela's Symposium . Leviathan is said to be closely related to Behemoth, or Bihmu as I found in Syriac. Which leads me to something strange in Lavey's Bible. He writes that "Beelzebub (Hebrew) : Lord of the Flies, taken from symbolism of the scarab Behemoth : Hebrew personification of Satan in the form of an elephant. Beherit : Syriac name for Satan" Where was Behemoth ever a scarab ? And how does he explain this word Beherit so promptly linked to Syriac ... of which I found No trace in any Syriac dictionnary. This leads me to doubt all of the research done in the Satanic Bible. Now i'm not accustomed to left hand path traditions, but I've come to think that Lavey's work was a cornerstone of western satanism. What do you think of it ?
Remember, only conversation with ones holy guardian angel gives one the authority over these. Even Crowley urges against curious dabbling with the demons of abramelin. These princes if evil should be explored with caution and not takin lightly in my opinion.
Fairly spoken but... take a good look at mr.crowley and his habitual toxicity and disgusting tendencies as a potential (ONLY POTENTIAL!) true finger pointing in the other direction for those of us going head first into real occultism while not getting into massive sexual perversion and other nasty issues simply by the hand the finger was attached too and where it ended up??.. I honestly don't know I just simply felt strongly pushed to say so
as far as I know Dragon Rouge is heavily inspired by Julius Evola (a well known antisemite,misogynist, esoteric racist,ect), I dont know their stance on antisemitism. In case they embrace Evola's antisemitism using kabbalah and leviathan as a symbol counts as cultural appropriation right? (something similar to crowley's actions)
@@drangelapuca The main antagonist of this specific short story is Cthulhu itself. Leviathan is used in the game "call of cthulhu" from 2018 which doesnt actually follow the events of the source material.
Very interesting... I always wondered if there was a correlation to that and the mythology of dragons. In the Bible I always thought of the term of it as symbolic but I was a child.
Thank you for this Angela. I come from a line of fisherman on California’s Central Coast, and our background is Sicilian and Calabrese. We all have experiences and superstitions surrounding sea monsters, and it plays a bigger part in our lives than I would expect for the average land-lover. I’m curious, do you know of any beliefs in sea monsters from Italy, which possibly may stem back to the Leviathan? All of this stuff has been floating around in my head since childhood and I really want to know it has anything to do with my heritage, or just my line of work lol. Love your channel.
Leviathan is a sea monster and also he is the state . Although he lives at the bottom of the sea , he can watch people with his power of remote viewing. He uses his awesome psychic powers to control the simple minded bureaucrats in the government .
Woah, so I wonder if leviathan can collect royalties for every mention, seek justice for the defamation, and retroactive compensation for creative content taken by especially those who demonize and cause direct prevention of living a peaceful and abundant life
Imagine being attacked and constrained and treated like a criminal, not knowing what a reciprocal loving relationship feels like, and working so hard and it never seems to be enough to ever feel secure and safe. Incarnation after incarnation. And then finding out it's because you're the biblical devil. But really you are a really pissed and traumatized girl from new Jersey that turns red whenever observed remotely

I would love a dragons themed follow-up with similarities between Leviathan and other "serpents" like Apep and Jormagander?
that'd be an interesting topic to investigate
Seconded!
They say Jormagander is the same as Leviathan. Look up the Jewish book of Giants. It's really interesting to read.
Thirded. :) They're all Ouroboros too.
World serpent ouroboros keeping cycles with death and rebirth or wishing to return back to the womb
