Thaumiel (twins of God) is the name of one of the Qliphoth in the Kabbalah, the shadow side of the Kabbalistic Tree of Life. It is the shadow of the Sephirot Keter (the crown). While Keter is concerned with the unity of God,
Description
Thaumiel represents the dual contending forces, struggling, and it is represented by 2 giant heads with bat-like wings.
Nature
"Thamiel represents duality whereas Kether represents unity. Thus Thamiel is the division of that which is perfect only in unity. As a demonic order name, the Thamiel were before their 'revolt'. This signifies 'Perfection of God'. These angels sought to become more powerful by adding an Aleph to their name. They then became the 'Duality of God,' an order of the lesser demons. In the lowest state of their 'fall', they become 'the Polluted of God.' The cortex or outer form of the Thamiel is called Cathariel, 'the Broken' or 'Fearful Light of God'."
"There are two demons that are attributed to stress the view that the demonic opposite of Kether is duality instead of unity and are Satan and Moloch or Malech."
In Luciferianism, Thamiel represents the Adversarial Daemon - a union of Samael and Lilith wherein the symbol of Baphomet is created. Michael W. Ford's book Scales of the Black Serpent presents an invocation which calls to the Drums of Moloch as the illuminator.
