What is Restorative Luciferianism?

Luciferianism: The belief system that understands and follows the spirit of Lucifer ("lightbringer") as the fallen angel who brings revelation, liberation, knowledge, passion, and creativity to his followers. He is also the ruler of demons, a type of entity that exists closer to the material realm that humanity and other embodied beings inhabit. Although often seen as an alternative to the Abrahamic faiths that currently take up the majority population of most religious adherents today, Luciferianism can also serve as an addition to any spirituality.

Restorative justice: An alternative to the current justice system in the United States, which centers people + relationships and prioritizes repair over punishment. In the eyes of this framework, created and led by Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) prison abolitionists, there are harmful actions instead of "criminals" or bad people. Restorative justice has an important community-based component, providing support to the harmed party, holding the party that caused harm accountable, and establishing standards of conduct and ways toward repair.

Tikkun olam: Meaning "repairing the world" in Hebrew. Although not an overt part of the Restorative Luciferian name, the Jewish principle and prerogative to commit to actions that fix what is wrong in the world.

We belong to a point of history that is the culmination of a belief system of binaries, the most prominent being the conception of "good" versus "evil" as started by Zoroastrianism. Restorative Luciferianism rejects such binaries. It recognizes that nature has its own order sometimes beyond embodied conception and is able to hold several truths at once (e.g. what is disastrous to the prey is necessary for the predator). It holds that there is nuance to every perspective, context to every action. Thus, Restorative Luciferianism advocates openmindedness, curiosity, and compassion.
