I understand what you mean, at times I might feel this Euphoria on occasions from Ritual Magick or Music in general. This Euphoria I consider to be the Black Flame within our consciousness, at times our Black Flame becomes energized where we feel as if our Subjective Universe is hard to keep in place, then at times our Black Flame wears off but then rekindles the next day. This is my own theory and interpretation from experience in general. Our path which isn't steady is hard to stay on this dark path, I have a few friends that I care about dearly but they do not know that I am a Satanist in general. At times when I socialize with people who'm some are mundane I feel as if its hard to stay within your Dark Path, but I always try to stay within my path whether I do not feel any "Euphoria."
No worries, I don't intend to ever leave this path, no matter whether I get off on it or not
It's its own reward.
I'm currently in a strongly agnostic position regarding the nature of the Black Flame and of Satan. The only thing I know (or define) is that the Black Flame is what drives me onwards, and Satan is that of which I am.
But it does make sense to assume the euphoria to be related to it - even if it's just my subconscious telling me that it likes what I'm doing xD
Satanism itself is a Christian manifestation of more ancient, polytheistic paths. This is one of the best things about Setian philosophy, as it recognizes this and leads back to a more pure form of polytheism. Specifically the works of Dr. Stephen Flowers if you're interested in heathenry (sp?).
While this isn't directed at me I still would like to reply to it more or less as if it were.
There seems to be the notion among Setians that theirs is a more pure, general form of Satanism. From my own point of view, the contrary is the case. While I see the problem with the name of Satanism, for me it is a religion not bound to Abrahamic religions in any way. It only has its name because no one came up with a better one yet, but I can as well call myself a Discordian, a Shaiva, a Baphometian, each of which terms has its own problems.
I thought for a while that Satanism could be equated with the LHP, but I'm not sure about this anymore - but what I think could be said about all Satanists is that we all religiously relate to interpretations and aspects of that what is sometimes called "the dark force in nature" or "the prince of darkness", no matter which of its cultural representations we work with.
Setians do that as well, and are therefore Satanists, in my opinion, but they limit themselves in a specific way - by only accepting specific metaphysical assumptions, especially mind-matter dualism. Therefore, Setianism is a specific version of the more general religion of Satanism.
From the point of view of a kind of Satanism that only employs Abrahamic notions, Setianism is certainly more "pure", but I don't think many of the more serious Satanists would do so.
