Sovereignty & Power in the LHP
Thursday, December 11, 2025
I feel called to write about this today because I want people to understand how I operate on this path. I often get questions like: “Do you worship Satan?” / “Do you worship this and that?” to the point it has become quite annoying.
Short answer: I do NOT worship anyone, nor do I believe in the concept of “one true god” or anything Abrahamic religions try to teach you. But of course, this is the most common question I get from people who DM me wanting to learn from me, yet cannot see past the mindset they were raised with — the mindset of “you need to worship something.” The concept of the LHP is foreign to them. To them, a human being must worship. And wanna know what I think?
I think it’s stupid. So stupid.
Humans always assume we are WEAK, and that we are NOT capable of becoming divine. That’s where it’s mostly wrong, because the Left Hand Path teaches the exact opposite — that we ARE divine and we do not need to worship any entity to be worthy of power. The LHP teaches self-deification. That’s what this path is: you become divine by walking it. And while you walk it, you may enlist the help of deities to assist your elevation. And in some cases, those relationships become spousal.
However, I want to address a topic that’s a bit controversial. “If you are divine, why do you call yourself the Queen of Bune, Belial, & Andromalius? Are you worshipping them?” This is a very common question, too, so let me explain this carefully.
Many people on the LHP believe: - If you honour deities, you aren’t sovereign.
- If you’re devoted to anyone, you’re not divine.
- To be LHP, you must stand alone.
This is philosophically incorrect on every level.
Left-Hand Path = self-deification, not isolation.
It does NOT mean you must shut yourself away from every deity, or that every act of honouring a deity makes you a slave. Working with deities doesn’t erase sovereignty. Being a spouse to spirits doesn’t erase sovereignty. Being a priestess doesn’t erase sovereignty. Deities don’t want subservient followers — they want powerful allies.
I am what I am now: their equal, their partner, their chosen, their Priestess, their Queen.
Not their slave, haha.
Of course, if your entire page and personality revolve around being a “Devil’s Bride,” and you use the name of your deity for everything — including justifying your shitty, toxic behaviour, claiming you’re superior, or saying “My deity revealed this because he exposes fake people” — then no, that’s not sovereignty. That’s just toxic, sis, lmao. Deities don’t care about petty human drama.
That becomes performative. Because you need the title to stay relevant. Like… you don’t have your own kingdom to rule.
As for me, I’m not worshipping or kneeling. I’m in mutual bonds, mutual devotion, and godspousery grounded in real practice. That’s not “kneeling”, I would call mine a divine partnership.
Anyway, I also think most LHP people on the Internet (especially on Twitter/X) who insist the LHP must be practised a certain rigid way are simply trying to assert superiority to feel powerful. A little ego is definitely NEEDED, but not to the extent where you think you’re better than everyone else.
Regarding Honouring Deities
Can you be an LHP practitioner while honouring deities? Absolutely.
You are not less sovereign because you honour your deities, but you are more sovereign because your relationships are chosen, conscious, empowered, and mutual. You don’t pray from weakness; you commune from strength. You don’t kneel; you walk beside. You aren’t owned; you’re loved.
Bottom line:
You don’t need to “stand alone” to be divine. You just need to stand in your truth. Which I already do.
And Bune, Belial, and Andromalius don’t weaken my sovereignty — they are part of my kingdom. I am loved, chosen, respected, and equal… not owned.
My LHP practice consists of me: - Actually practising
- Actually producing results
- Actually writing books
- Actually being recognised (mundanely and spiritually — I’ve had multiple astral ceremonies of crowning)
- Actually having real godspouse relationships
But many people can’t grasp this concept because they were raised in Abrahamic systems that force the binary of “either worship or don’t.” Which is fine — that’s their inner work to do.
As for me, I’m sovereign in the way that I honour my deities without using them as a crutch or as justification for shitty behaviour and ego. That’s what my practice is.
But yes, I do NOT worship them.

★ About the Priestess
Thank you for visiting my blog!
Hello, lovelies x
I am High Priestess Ariela. This title is recognised by the Sovereigns of Heaven and Hell.
I was ascended to High Priestess by my mentor, High Priestess Cecilia in April 2020, by Queen Lilith, the Mother of Demons, in January 2022 and by Duke Bune, my Godspouse, in November 2023.
I am a proud Malaysian-based witchcraft practitioner, and I am in my 30s and I currently reside in Penang, and although I was born in Kuala Lumpur, I love the peace and quietness here compared to the congested city of Kuala Lumpur.
I have officially been practising witchcraft and divination for a little more than 10 years now. However, I have always been interested in witchcraft since I was a little kid. I started developing my intuition as early as 6 years old, and learning/reading books on witchcraft when I was 10. My ancestors were shamans and spiritual healers so I am happy to continue this lineage. I have always been an intuitive person since I was a kid, being able to feel empathy and being able to communicate with the spirits since I was a kid.
My Witchcraft Journey
I studied witchcraft for many years before I started practising, roughly from the beginning of 2016 until now. I had previously worked in a coven and received lessons from an old friend who was also a High Priestess. I have also studied with them, and have performed mass rituals. I climbed through the ranks and have finally ascended to the rank of High Priestess myself. I am a heavy ritualist.
I am passionate about what I do and I intend to help people heal, just like how I healed from practising witchcraft. Contrary to popular belief, most witches do more healing than cursing. So, I am also here trying to change that mindset that people have, thinking that practitioners of magick are mostly bad.
I am currently going through the trials of the Tree of Qliphoth (Tree of Death). I initiated into the Qliphoth in January 2024 after being advised by Lord Lucifer and Lady Astaroth.
My Practices
• Qliphothic Left-Hand Path
• Demonolatry
• Dark Magick
• Forbidden Arts
• Necromancy
• Chaos Magick
• White Magick
• Moon Magick
• Fire and Water Magick
• Sympathetic Magick (poppets)
I am devoted to 5 infernal deities and 1 archangel for now.
My Spirit Allies
Infernal Deities
• Duke Bune
• King Belial
• Emperor Lucifer
• Earl Andromalius
• Duke Dantalion
I am spoused to Duke Bune, Earl Andromalius and King Belial.
Archangel
• Metatron
Outside the real world, I work in a multinational company (MNC). I am super passionate about what I do, both my full-time job and my side hustle.
I am also passionate about crystals, divination, and spiritual stuff. I have a large altar full of small, medium and big-sized crystals dedicated to my meditation time and also my devotion to my deities.
My Abilities/Gifts as a Witch
As a Witch, I am blessed with the following abilities:
• Energy Medicine and Energy Channelling (ancestral gifts)
• Prophecy Dreams/Visions
• Astral Projection
• Mediumship
• Witnessing (being visited by spiritual beings/deities/demonic deities)
• Claircognizance
• Clairvoyance
• Clairsentience
• Clairaudience
• Clairalience
• Divination
• Precognitions/Premonitions
• Telepathy with Humans
