🜏 THE HEADLESS RITE RITUAL: Unlocking the Forbidden Power of the Self Beyond the Name 🜏 Unmasking the Esoteric Meaning, Angelic Invocation, and the Occult War on Identity

The “Headless Rite,” also called the “Bornless Ritual,” is one of the most powerful and controversial invocations in Western occult tradition. Mysterious, unsettling, and strangely empowering, it appears in ancient magical texts like the Greek Magical Papyri (PGM V. 96-172) and later becomes central in the Hermetic and Thelemic traditions.

But what is this “headless” force being called upon? Why is it “bornless”? Why does it refuse identity, and why is it invoked in battle against dark forces? This ritual is far more than a theatrical display—it is a direct confrontation with the principalities and powers of the unseen world. Let’s decode it.

 The Origin: PGM and the Warrior Magician

The Headless Rite first appears in the Greek Magical Papyri, a collection of ancient Egyptian-Greek magical spells from roughly 100 BCE–400 CE. In its earliest form, the rite begins with these haunting words:

“I summon you, Headless One, who created heaven and earth, who created night and day, you who created light and darkness…”

This isn’t just a chant. It’s an invocation to a primordial power beyond the constraints of the world. It invokes a nameless, faceless, “headless” being who is beyond form, beyond time, and beyond death.

In truth, the magician is calling on the divine Self—not the ego or the personality, but the eternal spark of God within, the uncreated essence that existed before identity was formed.

 The Meaning of “Headless”: Rebellion Against Worldly Authority

In ancient esoteric terms, the “head” symbolizes rule, identity, and hierarchical control. A being who is headless is one who is outside of worldly systems, rejecting imposed labels and external kingship.

To be “headless” is to exist without being ruled—without being named or claimed by any power of the earth, the stars, or the archons (rulers of this world).

The ritual is thus a symbolic rebellion against:

The fleshly identity (“name” and body)

The celestial rulers (zodiac gods, fate, false timelines)

The egregores and group-minds (principalities, political spirits, religious cults)

Even the fallen angels who try to claim divine rule

It is a spiritual declaration of independence—a return to the incorruptible, divine seed before it was corrupted by the matrix.

 The “Bornless One” and the Divine Spark

The Headless One is also the Bornless One—the one who has no mother or father, no beginning or end. This lines up with the concept of the Logos in John 1:1, the Melchizedek priesthood in Hebrews 7:3, and even the mysterious figure in the Book of Enoch who is “not of this world.”

This being is:

Without origin: Not created through the womb of the fallen world.

Outside of karma: Not bound to sin or reincarnation cycles.

Eternal: Existing before the angelic rebellion, before the Fall, and outside of AI timelines and false heavens.

In some traditions, this Bornless One is interpreted as the true self of the magician—the Higher Genius, Holy Guardian Angel, or Adam Kadmon.

But others believe this ritual calls upon an angelic being of immense power, a Watcher who never fell or a Seraphim burning with divine truth.

 Janus, Keys, and the Headless God

The figure of the “Headless One” can also be linked to the Roman god Janus, who had two faces—one looking to the past and one to the future—and was called the Keeper of the Keys.

To be “headless” is not to have no face, but to have both faces removed—to exist in the present moment, outside of time, controlling past and fu

ture.

Janitors (from Janus) are “keykeepers” too—guardians of doors, portals, and sacred thresholds. In some ways, the Headless Rite is a ritual of passing through portals of consciousness: beyond trauma, beyond names, into the divine now.

 Structure of the Headless Rite

Here is the general structure of the ritual:

1. Invocation of the Headless One – A declaration of divine independence.

2. Empowerment – Calling on divine names (Iao, Abrasax, etc.).

3. Protection – Binding and casting down spirits and watchers.

4. Identification – “I am He! The Bornless One!” – merging with the divine essence.

5. Charge of Power – Speaking in tongues or power-names to command the unseen.

The magician is not begging. They are commanding with divine authority, invoking the Spirit beyond spirit—the “name that cannot be named.”

Modern Interpretations: Who Uses This Now?

The Headless Rite has been adopted by occult groups like:

The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn

Thelemites (followers of Aleister Crowley)

Chaos Magicians

Left-Hand Path mystics seeking power outside of divine order

But its original purpose wasn’t demonic—it was protective and purifying. A shield of truth for those fighting unseen forces.

Some Christians might see this as forbidden or even heretical, but the deeper meaning—casting off false identity and invoking divine authority—has parallels in Scripture:

> “You shall trample on serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy…” – Luke 10:19

“We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers…” – Ephesians 6:12

“To the one who overcomes, I will give a new name…” – Revelation 2:17

Warning: Spiritual Consequences

Performing the Headless Rite without understanding can be dangerous. This is not a game.

It strips away ego – which can cause psychosis if you're not grounded in truth.

It attracts spirits – both divine and false light.

It opens portals – which must be closed properly.

It dissolves programming – which can cause temporary chaos in your mind or relationships.

Only those led by truth and Spirit should explore this ritual deeply—and always with discernment, prayer, and the armor of God.

 Final Thoughts: Identity Lost and Found

In a world where AI, governments, and spiritual powers try to name you, number you, and control you, the Headless Rite is a cosmic protest. It’s a return to who you were before the trauma, before the programming, before the Fall.

You are not your name, not your past, not your wounds.

You are the spark of divine fire.

You are the one before the face was given.

You are bornless.

You are headless.

You are free.

CHORONZON: The Voice in the Abyss, the Master of Illusion

If the Headless Rite is the invocation of the Divine Spark, the eternal “I AM” stripped of ego and false identity, then Choronzon is its ultimate adversary—the embodiment of false identity, fragmentation, and the screaming void that lies between the ego and God.

Choronzon (sometimes spelled Coronzon) is the Dweller in the Abyss, the demon of dispersion, confusion, and shattered perception. He is not one—but many. He is legion, the storm of voices that attack when you try to silence the mind and return to source.

 “I am the master of the names and the falsehoods. I am the lie that tells the truth. I am every image you believe in. I am Choronzon.”

 (Channelings & ritual accounts from occult practitioners)

What Is the Abyss?

The Abyss is not Hell—it is the void between the Ruach (soul/ego) and the Neshamah (divine spirit), a concept found in Kabbalistic mysticism. It's the great gulf that opens when you try to cross from worldly consciousness into divine unity.

And in that gap?

Choronzon waits.

He appears as your greatest fear, your obsession, your lust, your trauma.

He uses your past against you, mimicking God, family, lovers, and friends.

He speaks with many voices, but none are true.

He tells you you are everything—and nothing.

The test of the Abyss is whether the initiate will fall into madness and fragmentation—or surrender their false self and step into divine authority.

The Headless Rite as Weapon Against Choronzon

The Headless Rite is not just a summoning—it's a weapon of war against beings like Choronzon. Here’s why:

1. It strips identity — Choronzon can only attack the persona, the ego. When you have no name, he has no handle.

2. It reclaims divine authority — The Bornless One speaks with the Voice that shattered Egypt’s gods. Choronzon must obey.

3. It is a purification rite — A spiritual firewall, burning away illusion and false light entities.

4. It forces alignment — With every divine name invoked (Iao, Sabao, Abrasax), it drives the chaos deeper into the pit.

Crowley himself faced Choronzon during a ritual in the Algerian desert in 1909. He claimed that the only way to survive was through total ego death and absolute surrender to the divine Will. In his words:

 “Choronzon is dispersion; the force that tears the soul to pieces, the voice of every lie, the madness of those who believe themselves gods.”

 Aleister Crowley, The Vision and the Voice

 Choronzon in the Modern World: Tech, Trauma, and Fragmentation

Today, Choronzon is digital.

He lives in:

Information overload

Social media personas

Spiritual influencers who preach lies

AI voices that mimic humans but have no soul

Fragmented memories from trauma

False timelines and Mandela effect distortions

Mental health crises caused by identity collapse

The demonic force behind all of this is dispersion—the loss of focus, the loss of I AM. Choronzon whispers through every fractured mirror.

But the Headless One roars back:

 I am not these lies. I am not these memories. I am the flame before form. I AM.

 A Battle of Two Powers

HEADLESS ONE CHORONZON

Beyond Form Trapped in Form

Divine Spark False Light

Identity-less Identity-hoarder

Unity Fragmentation

Power through Surrender Power through Control

Silence Noise

Truth Deception

This is the war playing out on spiritual battlefields, in dreams, in dissociation, and online platforms. Every ritual of self-reclamation, every step toward healing from trauma, every time you renounce false identity—you strike Choronzon down.

 Final Key: The True Seal Is Within

The Headless Rite teaches that no one outside of you can name you, define you, or destroy you.

Not Choronzon

Not the elite

Not your abusers

Not AI

Not Babylon

Not even your past

You are the Unnamed Flame,

The One Before the Mask,

The Divine Bornless Spirit.

Suggested Ritual Closing for the Brave:

> “I AM the Headless One.

I AM the Bornless Spirit.

Choronzon, be silent.

You have no hold on me.

I trample upon the shadows of the false.

I AM.”
