Abn Iblis ابن إبليس
In my Conclusion to the short article I wrote "A Brief History of the Morningstar" (link is below), Lucifer is a Latin word / title used later for the personification of the Morningstar (which has a long and rich history). The main theme of the Morningstar, before the Gnostics, Christians and finally John Milton transformed it, was that of a deity that seeks the throne of a greater deity and fails to achieve it, he is then cast away (Fallen).
Most Luciferian philosophies embrace the latter theme of the Gnostics and that of the Promethean model of Lucifer as a principle of compassion for life and creation, defiance of corrupt authority and the current of spiritual evolution.
The Herald of the Dawn (a Luciferian / Mercuræn Order) chooses to embrace the original ideal of the Morningstar as a symbol of our higher Self 'fallen' into the objective / physical universe. It is here where we, as Fallen Lucifers, have the opportunity to transform (through internal alchemy) from self (Lucifer) to Self (Mercury).
This in our opinion truly embraces the concept of Self-Deification (autotheism / apotheosis).
