Modern Babylonian Gate Rituals Rekindling Fires of Bel-Marduk and “Baal?” : Mardukite Beltane 2019

Suddenly the legacy becomes reality—all around the world people are observing the “Beltane Gate” in a new way, and not simply reminiscent of traditional neopagan customs… we are seeing a shift in power toward a reverence of “Mardukite” ideals, by whatever names they may be hailed by and regardless of whether our underground brand of influence is recognized… temples and gates of Bel or Baal, the presence of similar “copy-cat” books and plagiarized “Anunnaki Bibles”… indeed the times have changed…

Nearly a decade since a newly banded group calling themselves “Mardukite Chamberlains” received “inspiration” to incite a global ritual meditation working for the Mardukite “2009 Beltane Gate” observed by hundreds of participants around the world who had discovered the Mardukite brand of “esoterica” during its first year of inception (originally founded on the 2008 Summer Solstice) as directed by prodigious mystic and prolific underground occult writer, Joshua Free, called “Nabu” by members of the Mardukite Research Organization (first known in the 1990’s as “Merlyn Stone”).

You can read more about the original Mardukite 2009 Beltane Gate ritual and the first blogpost regarding the upcoming Mardukite 2019 Beltane Gate synchronized global ritual meditation working HERE at our sister-site from the recent NecroGate Blog.

More details regarding the new upcoming event will be posted on the sites as we get closer to the witching hour. All interested Truth Seekers may participate remotely from their own remote locations or together with others, also allowing the nature of the observance to fit personal taste and still contribute harmonically to the mass-consciousness energy of others!

[The remainder of this Mardukite blogpost is officially excerpted from the preface to the Mardukite “Tablet-R” series, available in the 10th Anniversary Collector’s Edition hardcover of “Necronomicon: The Anunnaki Bible,” or in paperback as “The Complete Anunnaki Bible” edited by Joshua Free. An abridged paperback “Necronomicon: The Anunnaki Bible (Pocket Edition)” is scheduled for publication on April 30, 2019.]

For Beltane in 2009, the presiding Nabu Maerdechai, Joshua Free banded together with other Mardukites all over the globe to conduct a synchronized “opening” of the MARDUK Gate. In normal operations, this would be done alone and closed at the end of the rite. For BELTANE 2009, the South Gate was strongly thrust open by many dedicates and left open to all until the End of Days—to the gain of all devotees who wish to access the current of MARDUK directly. Much insight has been “accessed” as a result of this work and for those who have followed the work closely and rightfully call themselves Marduk’s Chamberlains…

The immediate result of this gate-work at the “Mardukite Office” was disclosed as the corpus-body of literary materials now composing an entire library! As Joshua Free explained in a recent NBR interview: “When we conducted the [original] Beltane Gate working, we did not have any of the ‘Mardukite-specific’ materials at our disposal. We are no longer dependent on sparse discourses of esoteric archaeology or even that [Simon] book anymore and will be able to have a wider pool of suggestions for the [upcoming] 2019 reprise…”

The evening of April 30 (May’s Eve) is considered the potentially most powerful time for Gate-workings from “our” side. Annually it appears opposite the more famous Samhain/Halloween threshold, and practitioners of the tradition continue to hold meditative (internal) and ceremonial (ritualized) Star Gate workings on this night.

The “key” to the Dimensions opens daily when the “Great Bear hangs from its tail…” but it appears to be most significant at Beltane when it occurs just before the midnight threshold. For example, Beltane 2009 on APRIL 30 was the sixth day of the moon and the Gate opened at approximately 11:30 PM.

Mardukite Ministries, later known as the Mardukite Chamberlains [Ordo Nabu Maerdechai] supports modern “Mardukites”—those who acknowledge a living tradition composed of a belief in the existence and contribution of the ANUNNAKI, working in a tradition based on the writings of NABU, the prophet-scribe and son of the Babylonian figure named MARDUK, who is hailed as “Lord of the Earth” by Babylonian accounts.

Babylonian cuneiform tablets depict MARDUK as a major contributor toward the creation and raising of humans and particularly the “Race of Marduk” (“Mardukites”) and perhaps farther, the work done by the “Sons of God” to fragment this existence from the Source, as was done by systematic design.

Contrary to other ANUNNAKI, MARDUK seeks to free mankind from the slavery that has kept us from the truth of the human origins and living conditions on Earth. The purpose of the Mardukite Chamberlains is to prepare the “House of MARDUK” or “Bond-Heaven-Earth” [DUR.AN.KI] which is equal to as and with “Self,” “Earth” and “Universe,” All-as-One. This includes practical processes of self-realization as well as dramatic ritual magic, but only that which exists from the point of self-honesty in commitment and service and not simply for the attainment of mundane pursuits, and towards the realization of a New Babylon—Heaven on Earth.

Real Ancient Magic Rites & Rituals – Incantation of Eridu, The Deep of Enki | Sumerian Babylonian Mesopotamian

Through Marduk, the power of Eridu – incantation-prayer – was taught to the scribes of Nabu and the Mardukite Priests, who were taught to attract and compel the ‘gods’ in the name of Marduk, always incanting the word-formula of the highest order: Nabu invoked by way of the name of Marduk; Marduk invoked by way of the name of Enki, Our Father, who in turn would invoke by the name of Anu – and so was born the concept of magical hierarchies, an ideal that was convoluted and obscured when employed later (during the Middle Ages and such), particularly distorted by the Judeo-Christian paradigm as evident in many popular grimoires
–The Book of Marduk by Nabu

Many version of Erudite magic may be found through the Mesopotamian ‘spiritual’ (or ‘magical’) cuneiform texts. The incantation tablets from the ‘Mardukite’ Babylonian Anunnaki tradition, specifically those used and forged by scribe-priests of the Order of Nabu, are invoked from the ‘perspective’ (authority) of NABU – as was the tradition learned verbatim from MARDUK. In both scholarly and esoteric ‘Mardukite’ texts, the ‘Opening Ritual’ of Mardukite magic is derived from the source titled: “The Incantation of Eridu.”

JOSHUA FREE explains this magic in the Liber-50 material released as SUMERIAN RELIGION by Joshua Free, also available in the Year-2 Mardukite Core Anthology GATES OF THE NECRONOMICON edited by Joshua Free.

Perhaps the most fundamental ‘formula’ of the magical system in Babylonia, if there is one, goes back to the heart of the system born of the scribe-priests and the figures who brought this system about – NABU and the appropriation of his father, MARDUK as the chief director. This is the spiritual acknowledgment alluded to by the Incantation of Eridu, also known as the ‘Incantation of the Priest of Eridu’ (Eridu being the shrine-home of ENKI), or the ‘Incantation of the Deep’, which simply refers to another name for the far-away abode of ENKI near the Persian Gulf.

Ceremonial activation of the ‘birthright’ of Anunnaki power sealed in Eridu (and then in Babylon) allows a practitioner to assume the representative form of the “ Priest of Eridu,” a title first bestowed upon MARDUK by ENKI, then passed onto NABU during the solidification and heights of the Babylonian era. The esoteric key in effect here is that the priest conducts the incantations (ceremony) as the embodiment of an intermediary ‘messenger’ deity – the original semantic of the word “invocation” – thereby directing the cosmic (world) order, in essence, first hand.

The magician approaches his deity as himself – a servant priest – and petitions to assume the godform, whereby he continues the ceremony as a divine representation of the god ‘invoked’. An almost identical principle appears within Semitic mysticism and the Judeo-Kabbalah – an excellent example being found in contemporary Catholicism, when the priest ‘assumes the Christ-form’ to effectively perform a perceived alchemical transmutation on the sacramental bread and wine, conducted as a representative of Jesus on earth, in imitation (dramatic reenactment) of the Last Supper.

In the ‘Mardukite’ system observed in Babylon, the god being invoked is MARDUK. This is affirmed with the priest’s first utterance of: “It is not I, but Marduk, who speaks the incantation.” And from then on the system is sealed and readied for use by the Mardukite devotee. Consider the lines in this conjuration, adapted from the Mardukite Tablet-Y in NECRONOMICON ANUNNAKI BIBLE edited by Joshua Free:

It is not I, but Marduk, Slayer of Serpents,
Who summons thee.
It is not I, but Enki, Father of the Magicians,
Who calls thee here now.

An examination of the remaining lines of the ‘Incatation of Eridu’ appears here, though the “Mardukite” version is given fully in the Tablet-Y Series. As described, the ritual operates as if from the perspective of NABU (speaking for MARDUK). Though variations exist across the opening lines of several Assyrian “exorcisms,” one key tablet example – translated by R.C. Thompson as his “Tablet N” for Devils and Evil Spirits of Babylonia (1903) – relates:

The Priest of E.A. [Enki] am I.
The priest of Damkina [Ninki] am I.
The messenger [Nabu] of Marduk am I.
My spell is the spell of E.A [Enki].
My incantation is the incantation of Marduk.
The ‘magic circle’ of EA [Enki] is in my hand.
The tamarask (of Anu), in my hand, I hold.

From the modernized Mardukite version, the opening lines read (from Tablet-Y in Necronomicon Anunnaki Bible):

I am the Priest of Marduk,
Son of Our Father, Enki.
I am the Priest of Eridu,
And the Magician of Babylon

The Assyrian version continues humbly as follows:

EA [Enki], King of the Deep
See me favorably.
I, the magician, am thy slave.
March thou on my right hand,
Assist me on my left;
Add thy pure spell to mine.
Add thy pure voice to mine.
O god that blesses me, Marduk,
Let me be blessed, wherever my path rests.
Thy power, shall god and man proclaim.
And I too, the magician, thy slave

E.A. Budge transliterates an older version for Babylonian Life & History (1883) and we see a slightly different method for petitioning the “younger pantheon” to the side of the priest:

I am the Priest of EA [Enki].
I am the Magician of Eridu.
Shammash [Samas] is before me.
Sin [Nanna] is behind me.
Nergal is at my right hand.
Ninurta is at my left hand

Later added to this, the modern Mardukite version appends:

Anu, above me, King of Heaven.
Enki, below me, King of the Deep.
The power [blood] of Marduk is within me.
It is not I, but Marduk, who performs the incantation.
