[“Entering the chthonic current through a Portal within the Cthulhu Mythos, Dr. Vincente traces the essence of a primordial Gnosis through the Egyptian Death mysteries and the European witch cult unearthing the most occulted dimensions of both. With the mind of a scholar and the initiatic intuition of an occult master the author reveals the true significance of both esoteric environments for the serious practitioner of the Left Hand Path. Dr. Vincente establishes hitherto unexplored connections between the European lore of the Witches’ Sabbath and the archaic fertility cult of the ram-headed Banebdjedet, a totemistic representation of Osiris in his netherworld aspect – Osiris as the Black Sun. It is the daemon of the depths, the Faceless God, who serves as the bridge between these two esoteric currents. This dark psychopomp, who reveals the mysteries of the Black Sun, is known by the name Nyarlathotep. The Egyptians knew him as Anubis and to the European witches, he was the black man of the Sabbath.]
