My mom: It's nice, but it won't last. People don't like watching shows about the devil.
Me: Is that why Supernatural was cancelled after one season?
Why is it that both Jesus and Satan are called the “Morningstar”?
By Author Eli Kittim
In his essay, “Why is Jesus Called the ‘Morning Star’?”, author Randy Alcorn explains:
the name Morning Star is not tainted—it is
Satan who is tainted. Obviously this is the
case, or Morning Star wouldn't be used of
Christ.
Isaiah 14.12 uses the Hebrew term הֵילֵ֣ל (helel), meaning “a shining one,” to describe the great fall from heaven (Lk 10.18) of an angel who is called “ben shachar” (son of dawn or son of the morning), who is said to have weakened the nations (cf. Ezek. 28.13-17). In Christianity, this is considered to be a reference to Satan, the morning star, who at his creation possessed both great virtue and beauty but, due to pride (or ego), subsequently rebelled against God. The Septuagint (aka LXX), an early Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible, renders Isa. 14.12 as follows:
πῶς ἐξέπεσεν ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ὁ
ἑωσφόρος ὁ πρωΐ ἀνατέλλων;
The Septuagint renders the Hebrew helel (Morningstar/Venus) as ἑωσφόρος (from ἕως [“dawn”] + φόρος [“bearing” or “carrying”] cf. 1 Sam. 30.17; Job 3.9; Ps. 110.3 LXX). This is obviously a reference to Satan’s original status, prior to his rebellion, as “the anointed cherub” (Ezek. 28.14 KJV). Moreover, Job 38.7 suggests that angels were created before the Big Bang and were actually present to celebrate God’s creation of the universe. In fact, all the angels prior to the creation of the world were called “Morningstars” (Job 38.4-7):
Where wast thou when I laid the
foundations of the earth? . . . When the
morning stars sang together, and
all the sons of God shouted for joy . . .
Quite appropriately, the Septuagint (Job 38.7) calls these angels (ἄγγελοί) stars (ἄστρα). Interestingly enough, Jesus Christ also calls himself ὁ ἀστὴρ ὁ λαμπρός ὁ πρωϊνός (the bright and morning star) in Rev. 22.16. And in Rev. 2.28 Jesus promises to give the overcomers τὸν ἀστέρα τὸν πρωϊνόν (“the morning star”). What is more, Second Peter 1.19 describes regeneration or rebirth in Christ as a process in which “the morning star rises in your hearts” (NKJV). In this verse, the term Morningstar is referring to Jesus as the φωσφόρος (light-bringing; cf. John 1.4; 8.12)!
Therefore, by definition, the term Morningstar refers to a state of purity and holiness. So, it can no longer apply to Satan except insofar as it refers to his original status at the time of creation. Hence why the term Morningstar is used in the Bible as a reference to both Satan and Christ.
But there is a twist in the tale. When the King James Version of 1611 translated the Hebrew term hêylêl (Morningstar) into English, instead of using the Hebrew text or the Greek Septuagint, it used the Vulgate, a Latin translation of the Bible. However, in Latin, the term Morningstar (Venus) is “Lucifer.” That’s how the word Lucifer entered our Bible and became part of Christian folklore. But because Jesus is also called “the bright Morning Star,” in Revelation 22.16, this Latin translation introduced a semantic confusion. Given that the term “Lucifer” is inextricably linked with Satan, this Latin version of Morningstar corrupted the original meaning of the term. That’s why many modern Bible versions have gone back to using the original Hebrew term “Morningstar” or “daystar” as opposed to the Latin-based “Lucifer.” The reason is obvious. The pejorative term Lucifer can neither technically refer to Jesus nor to Satan, who is no longer a morning star!

Little public appreciation for my wonderful deities!!
Firstly, Lucifer!
He has such a beautiful presence. Whenever I see the stars, I immediately get reminded of him. His energy is so incredibly warm & comforting.
He’s so incredibly funny, yet so wise & serious. He is so full of personality, it’s insane!
I love when I hear violins & just know he would enjoy it.
I love when I see flowers & just know he would want me to pick them for him.
I’m so thankful to have him as a patron. He’s so inspiring, & encourages me so much to fully be myself.
Thank you so much to the great illuminator
Ave Lucifer!!

Michael and God
Something I’ll bring up in a future post is: Michael being God’s most loyal angel, yet not being the favorite. This isn’t proven, but it really just begs the question of: “Why?” I get it, the most loyal don’t always have to be the favorite, but still. Lucifer was (most likely) made in God’s image of perfection. Yet, most believe that Michael is the eldest.
So, why not make Michael the definition of perfection? Why not make him the most beautiful thing to exist? Why make him the most loyal, if loyalty isn’t included in your definition of perfection? It just continues to bring up the same question: “Why?” If Michael is the eldest, why not start out with making him perfect? If he’s supposed to be your most loyal angel, why isn’t loyalty included in your image of perfection? Why is it that the one that fell from your grace, is the one you consider to be prefect? Lucifer fell. Say all you want about him, but he fell from God’s grace. Yet, it’s still mentioned that he’s the Morningstar. What about Michael? The one who stood by God’s side, the one who still obeys him, doesn’t make the cut when it comes to perfection. It shouldn’t be that the one who fell from God’s is still the Morningstar. Yeah, sure, Lucifer’s name means “bearer of light”, but Michael’s name means, “who is like god?” To me, Michael’s name should mean more to God. But, it doesn’t seem that way. Only the Morningstar matters to everyone. But again,“Why? Why is Lucifer the one everyone talks about? Why not Michael? Why doesn’t Michael have a nickname like Lucifer? Why did Michael have to take on the burden of casting out his own siblings? Why couldn’t God do it? He’s literally God. Why did his children have to fight a battle for rebelling against rules he made? Why couldn’t God step in? Why did it have to be Michael?
Why?
It continues to bring up the same question over and over again. Yet, there are no answers. Michael took the burden of casting out his family, not God. The war was most likely caused by God not wanting Lilith’s actions to go unpunished. So why not have him handle the situation? Why let a full fledged war break out when he could’ve easily stepped in? What did God do? Did he sit back on his throne and watch everything play out? Did he expect something terrible to come out of it? Did he know? He’s God, he made everything. Does that mean he knew what would happen because it’s how he created it? If God has made any actions at all; were they intentional?
This just makes me ask more questions.
Lucifer fell from God’s grace, yet he’s God’s definition and image of perfection. Michael stood by his side, he stood loyal; yet he isn’t included in God’s image of perfection. If loyalty isn’t included in what makes one perfect in God’s eyes, then what is? Sin? Falling from Heaven? There’s no way. I get it, it was for his sister. But is that version of loyalty and love more important to God? So much more important that Lucifer is still praised for being the Morningstar while his most loyal angel and soldier sits on the sidelines; him too, believing that Lucifer is absolutely perfect. It doesn’t make sense.
The unexplained lore about the CR is scratching my brain in all the bad yet good ways.
Because having to choose just one is too difficult, they don't wanna put u under pressure. Flail is really cool, it's a ball on a chain on a stick (and I have fond memories of learning about it when reading an encyclopedia and looking through medieval arms looking for all the toy ones I have), morningstar is cool and literally named Lucifer like c'mon, and then there's the flanged mace - just an immortal classic, an icon. Simple yet effective and iconic
