The Narrative of Leviathan

The Leviathan symbolizes life, health, community, and creativity. The first two things are fairly self-explanatory. It is the other two that will be the focus. Community, and our instinct to live that way, come from our evolution as a social species. A group of like-minded individuals can find mutual benefit in association. The sharing of the joys of life with companions makes those moments all the more sweet. Sometimes you might find yourself doing things to help others, but when you need it, you should find these others coming to your aid.

Even the most independent and individualistic people need allies and a support system. You do not want to be the outcast by yourself, and you cannot affect as much change if you are the lone adversary. Community can help in your endeavors, and allow you to be a part of the interesting activities others might be planning.

Community should be individuals who happen to have converging interests and goals. They should never be a collective of sheep blindly following for no reason other than to follow. There is a large and important difference there. One is Satanic. The other is slavery.

Creativity is another important thing. Even people who do not see themselves as creative will be good at something. The Satanist should find what they are good at, and refine that skill. Having something one is good at gives one a sense of accomplishment and purpose. It is also one of those pleasures of life, which call out for our indulgence.

With a community of people who all have at least some sort of creative ability, those abilities can be combined to do amazing things. It is kind of like the concept of emergence, where you end up with something that is more than the sum of its parts. Like the brain, for example. It is just made up of cells, and none of the cells have any conscious thought, but put together as they are, it results in the existence of a conscious mind.

Through communal emergence, you can create a very a powerful adversary. One that can bend the world, just a little, to the desire of your will. One that can affect change to a greater extent than could any one person. It is the closest thing there is to magic. Its power is limited only by the community and their combined creative energies.

Ceremonies and celebrations are a great thing for a community to have. I created a set of ceremonies. I had written them out, mostly as customizable templates, but I never was completely happy with them. I think the reason is that if any of it is prewritten, it loses the personal meaning it should have. Writing specifics should be up to the Satanic priest or other practitioner, and the person or persons involved. With my following explanation, you should be able to make your own.

With all of these, you decide exactly what is said, how it goes, if there is ritual involved, and if so, what that ritual is.
