A congregation of devotional Satanists

The High Satanic Church is for theistic Satanists: people who understand Satan as a real divine presence, not only as a literary symbol or political image. That belief shapes our study, ritual life, and the way we speak with one another.

Most of our life is simple: reading, conversation, private devotion, and occasional online ritual. Membership is free. We ask visitors and members to bring patience, honesty, and basic respect; everything else can be learned over time.

The Diale Lodge

Some members want a more structured setting for long-term work. The Diale Lodge is one option: a smaller online circle for adult members who want regular practice, study, and discipline.

The main Church remains open to visitors and ordinary members. Lodge work is optional, slower, and more demanding; it is there for people who choose that level of commitment.

Core Principles

I

Satan as God

We worship Satan as the central divine presence of our faith. This is what separates our congregation from symbolic or atheistic forms of Satanism.

II

The Acausal

We use the word acausal for what stands outside ordinary cause, time, and sequence. It is a way of speaking about the spiritual reality behind ritual, insight, and change.

III

Discernment

We reject religious systems that demand obedience without understanding. A practitioner should test teachings through study, practice, and conscience rather than fear.

IV

Practice Before Certainty

No one is expected to arrive with perfect doctrine. Knowledge grows through reading, silence, ritual, reflection, and an honest record of one's own experience.

V

Spiritual Discipline

A serious path needs rhythm. Small acts repeated over time — study, prayer, meditation, and ritual preparation — shape attention better than dramatic gestures.

VI

Recognition

Faith is not only argument. For many practitioners it appears gradually: clearer judgement, less fear, deeper resolve, and a sense of being addressed by something real.

Survey

A short anonymous survey helps us understand who is using the site and what people need from the congregation.

The survey is intended to be anonymous. Please do not include identifying details unless you choose to do so.

Common Questions

Is membership free?

Yes. Membership is free. We do not charge dues, subscriptions, or joining fees.

Do you charge for rituals or events?

No. Congregational rituals and gatherings listed on this site are free to attend. We do not sell rituals, access, or spiritual status.

Are you affiliated with the Church of Satan or The Satanic Temple?

No. The High Satanic Church is independent. The Church of Satan and The Satanic Temple generally approach Satan symbolically or atheistically; our congregation is theistic. We make the distinction so visitors know where we stand.

Can anyone join the congregation?

Our public spaces are open to sincere seekers who approach theistic Satanism with respect. Because the congregation is online, people can participate from many places and at different levels of experience.

Do I need prior experience with Satanism to participate?

No. You can begin as a reader, ask basic questions, and take your time. Experienced practitioners are welcome too, provided they can share space respectfully with newer people.

Begin at Your Own Pace

Read, visit the community page, or join a gathering when you are ready. You do not need to rush.

INDEPENDENT CONGREGATION

The High Satanic Church is an independent theistic Satanist congregation.

We are not affiliated with the Church of Satan, The Satanic Temple, or any other Satanic organisation. We state this plainly because visitors often confuse groups with similar names, symbols, or subject matter.

We are also not connected to the Order of Nine Angles, any O9A nexion, or any political extremist current. Our focus is religious practice, study, and community.
