“Tu és Lúcifer!” Contrariamente ao que transmite a cultura popular de tradição cristã, a etimologia e a história das religiões esclarece que Lúcifer é o “portador da luz”, uma divindade luminosa na antiguidade clássica, a estrela da manhã para os que se orientavam pelos astros ou, numa interpretação gnóstica, aquele que revelou o verdadeiro conhecimento aos homens, denunciando as ilusões do Demiurgo, o falso deus. No cruzamento inter-mitológico esotérico de tradição crowleiana, Lúcifer, o príncipe da aurora dourada, é por vezes associado ao deus egípcio Hórus, uma divindade solar que teria revelado ao próprio Aleister Crowley um novo tempo, uma nova era, o Aión do Aquário, uma época de paz e conhecimento de que ele haveria de ser o profeta.
