The New Age and Luciferianism
The New Age Movement (NAM) is both a religious and a social movement.
In fact, Western culture is currently experiencing a phenomenal,
spiritual, ideological, and sociological shift. It is a religious world
view that is alien and hostile to Christianity. It’s a
multi-focused, multi-faceted synthesis, in varying degrees, of the Far Eastern, mystical religions, mainly Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, and Western Occultism, adapted to and influenced by Western, materialistic culture. It sometimes appears in secularized forms.
The New Age Movement consists of an incredibly huge and well organized network consisting of thousands of groups, trusts, foundations, clubs, lodges, and religious groups whose goal and purpose is to prepare the world to enter the coming “Age Of Aquarius.”
The major goal of the New Age Movement is to bring peace to the world upon entering the Age of Aquarius. This will be accomplished primarily through the leadership of “the Christ” (also known as “Lord Maitreya”), who will supposedly come to teach us to live at peace with each other. Some of the other stated goals of the movement are to establish a World Food Authority, World Water Authority, World Economic Order, and an entirely New World Order. It should be noted here that one of the requirements for a person to enter the New Age is that he or she will have to take what is known as a “Luciferic Initiation,” a kind of pledge of allegiance to the Christ of the New Age and to the New World Order. The primary goals of the movement then, are to prepare the world to receive the Christ and to enter the Age of Aquarius, thus establishing the New World Order.
One type of Luciferianism is the worship or reverence of Lucifer as a deity. Such religion is related to Satanism—though it attempts to emphasize the more “positive” aspects of Lucifer. Another type of Luciferianism is nontheistic and views Lucifer as nothing more than a symbol of mankind’s quest for wisdom and enlightenment.
The name “Lucifer” comes from a translation of Isaiah 14:12. It literally means “bright star, shining star, or morning star.” Most scholars see this as a description of Satan before his rebellion against God. Passages like Isaiah 14 and Ezekiel 28 teach that Satan was created the highest, most beautiful of the angels, but that his pride and desire for God’s own throne resulted in his being cast out of heaven and being given the name “Satan” (meaning “adversary”).
The first type of Luciferianism is really nothing more than the worship of Satan as the god of this world (2 Corinthians 4:4). Satan is venerated as a being of knowledge and light (2 Corinthians 11:14–15). The focus is on the “good” that was in Lucifer prior to his rebellion and not the evil and darkness that is associated with the name “Satan.” Though Lucifer and Satan are one and the same, Luciferianism portrays him as a god of light, a god of knowledge, and a god of magic. Luciferians seek to become gods themselves, a position attained by living a life of goodness, seeking after knowledge, practicing magic, and opening one’s mind to the cosmic mind of Lucifer. In many ways, Luciferianism resembles Gnosticism.
The other type of Luciferianism, which rejects the idea that Lucifer is a personal being, is still seeking enlightenment apart from the truth of God. These Luciferians may see themselves as lovers of light and goodness, but they are embracing falsehood. Satan does not care if people believe in him or not; he can still lead them astray.
Groups that adhere to Luciferian teachings are few and far between, though elements of Luciferianism are found in Masonic teachings, Wicca, and New Age philosophy. Because there is no agreed-upon dogma, Luciferian beliefs are extremely varied from group to group. The wide variety of beliefs among Luciferian adherents has contributed to the generally held belief that Luciferianism is simply a subset of Satanism, a mini-denomination of sorts. Although some adherents would be quick to denounce such a claim, Luciferianism is otherwise difficult to categorize.
One thing is certain: Lucifer/Satan is not a being to be worshipped, nor is he anyone to be treated lightly. He is a very powerful being and the enemy of our souls. The Bible describes him as “the devil [who] prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour” (1 Peter 5:8). Those who get involved with him will eventually regret it, as he will devour their souls as a reward for their worship. “Resist him,” Peter exhorts in verse 9, “standing firm in the faith.” The faith he means is faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, because He alone can save us from hell, the ultimate destination of all who dabble in Luciferianism.
Millions of people attend rock concerts not realizing they are worshiping the devil aka Satan aka Lucifer, Look at the raised up hands of those adoring the musician(s) representing Satan's kingdom.

I personally got involved in the New Age Movement while I lived in Los Angeles - I encourage you to read my story on the page entitled "About the Author, Part I". I delved into the New Age with my whole being and yet there were levels I did not penetrate into in that dark and confusing metaphysical world. I thank God for that because I am not sure if I could've ever made it out if I had immersed myself any further than I did. And now that it is 20+ years later and the New Age movement has spread all over the United States and permeated into and saturated all kinds of literature, science, art and entertainment, I am very concerned for the minds of the American people! (not to mention their souls!!!) Especially now that I see there is something called Quantum Physics New Age because the youth are going to grab this up like it's part of real science. And when I see a movie trailer like this one to "What The Bleep Do We Know?", and hear all of the false information being presented and acted out in a movie followed by that fatal question: "How far down the rabbit hole do you want to go?", I just want to cry over how many minds will be ruined into the insanity of the New Age!
You may have noticed Indians standing in the background of Marlee Matlin in the film trailer and that's because Native American Indian spiritism is a kin to the New Age. Here is an excerpt from an old 2003 article from Integrative Health & Healing that is using Quantum Physics to explain Shamanic healing used by the Native American Indians. I won't copy the whole article, just the introduction:
Western cultures have always dismissed shamanic healing and other native medicine powers as "primitive superstition," mainly because we had no explanation for how shamans do what they do. Shamanic healing was the main form of healing used by the American Indians, who called upon helping spirits to cure the patient. Though there are few native shamans left in North America, 200 years ago upwards of 30% of the population had some form of spirit-enabled medicine power.
How does shamanic healing
work? Let's start with some recent developments in quantum physics, which have
finally provided us with answers.
You still may be scratching your head asking yourself, "What is Quantum Physics?" Well, below is what a website called Abundance and Happiness.com had to say. (This website is encouraging this type of scientific spiritualism, which of course I do not condone, but for reference have copied over their introduction)
Quantum Physics Demystifies The Process Of Creation and Reveals The Simplicity of Conscious, Intentional and Purposeful (as Well as Unconscious and Unintentional) Manifestation
Although you may or may not yet be aware of how a 2 word phrase such as Quantum Physics can enhance EVERY aspect of your life, it CAN and in fact WILL...should you allow it to.
If you will "allow it" and read along for just a bit, you'll SEE just how profoundly and transformationally true that is.
What exactly is Quantum Physics? Basically, it's a highly specialized (and seemingly weird) form of science that, unlike Newtonian physics, studies, explores and explains how everything in the tangible world comes into existence. Quantum Physicists (the really smart and sometimes insightful guys who make the science of quantum physics possible) basically explore the nature of reality beginning at the subatomic (unseen) level.
The fact is, as quantum physicists have discovered, it determines EVERY aspect of reality, including but not limited to ALL aspects of your life.
They certainly don't have it anywhere close to fully "figured out." But what they have figured out and know, is where ALL physical things, whether events, conditions, and circumstances as well as everything in the entire Universe stem from. Put simply, quantum physics breaks physical things down into their purest and most basic form, attempting to discover the Ultimate Source from where they (which includes everything) are derived.
An
on the surface look, from a strictly intellectual vantage point, with regard to
what Quantum Physics is and what quantum physicists do, may and perhaps does,
sound a bit ho hum or perhaps even, really complex. But when you become aware
of and combine the underlying conclusions that Quantum Physics reveals, with
what the mystics, sages, masters and philosophers since antiquity have to say
about life and how our lives come to be the kind and quality that they are,
(whatever that entails) is not only PROFOUNDLY exciting, it CAN prove to be the
catalyst that transforms your entire life.
There is even a website called Quantum Yoga and this is what they have to say:
Why Quantum Yoga? Quantum physics has made incredible discoveries that echo the ancient insights of yoga. The cross-pollination that has occurred in the fields of science and metaphysics in the past years serves the individual with inspiration and empowerment. Quantum physics has proven that energy and matter are not so easily divisible, that in fact energy is more substantial than matter itself. In yoga practice we actually experience this insight first-hand. The body is not merely flesh and bone; it is imbued with prana, life-force. All mental fluctuations have a direct effect on this pranic flow, which in turn manifests as physical sensations and disease. We can revert this process by addressing body, breath and mind in a holistic manner.
