Cimejes

The 66th of the seventy-two, a marquis. Teaches grammar, logic and rhetoric. In the language of this path, Cimejes is a shadow pole — worked only with its angel, Manakel.

What the grimoires say

In the 1904 Goetia, Cimejes is a Marquis governing 20 legions. Teaches grammar, logic and rhetoric; finds lost and hidden things.

A marquis pictured as a valiant warrior riding a fine black horse, said to rule the spirits of the African regions.

“The Sixty-sixth Spirit is Cimejes, or Cimeies, or Kimaris. He is a Marquis, Mighty, Great, Strong and Powerful, appearing like a Valiant Warrior riding upon a goodly Black Horse. He ruleth over all Spirits in the parts of Africa. His Office is to teach perfectly Grammar, Logic, Rhetoric, and to discover things Lost or Hidden, and Treasures. He governeth 20 Legions of Infernals; and his Seal is this, etc.”— Mathers & Crowley, The Goetia (1904), public domain

The shadow it carries

Stripped to the bone, Cimejes's traditional office turns on eloquence and the classical trivium — grammar, logic, and rhetoric (persuasive, well-ordered speech). Read plainly, that is a real human force; in the language of this path its raw, unowned form is a shadow pole. Its shadow is what that force does when it runs you from the dark; its gold is the same force — seen, owned, governed.

You never reach for it alone. Its light pole is the angel Manakel; met together, behind protection, Cimejes becomes a disowned part of yourself approached while the light is already in the room.

Correspondences

A word of honesty first: almost none of the table below is from the old grimoires. The rank, legions, direction and office are traditional; the planet, day, colour, tarot, incense and the Enn are modern attributions (mostly 20th–21st-century Demonolatry and correspondence compilations), and the sources openly disagree. Use them as a working frame, not as law.

Correspondence	Value	Where it comes from
Tarot	Four of Disks / Pentacles	Modern — Aleister Crowley, 777 (1909); tied to the 20–30° Capricorn decan
Zodiac / Decan	3rd decan of Capricorn (20–30°), by night	Modern — Crowley, 777; Goetia 37–72 mapped to the 36 decans by night, #66 = 30th decan
Planet	Sun	Derived — Chaldean ruler of the 20–30° Capricorn decan (traditional astrology); not in the grimoire
Day	Sunday (if the solar decan-ruler is followed)	Modern/derived — inferred from the Sun; no traditional grimoire source
Element	Earth	Derived — Capricorn / suit of Disks (Crowley 777); not in the grimoire
Metal	Gold	Derived — metal of the Sun (decan ruler) in traditional planetary metals; modern application
Candle colour	Black (his black horse) or gold (solar)	Modern — practitioner convention only; no primary source
Incense	Frankincense (solar)	Modern — practitioner convention only; no primary source
Plant	None fixed	No primary-grimoire attribution; modern lists vary
Animal	Black horse	Public-domain — his mount in the 1904 Goetia / Weyer appearance description
Date-window	approx. 10–19 January (night)	Modern — Crowley 777 night decan of Capricorn; same window given in S. Connolly demonolatry lists

Its modern Enn — a chant from the Demonolatry current, not found in any grimoire:

“Ayer avage secore Cimejes”

Making a connection

Gathered from what practitioners report, put plainly — a starting point, not a rule:

Sit with the seal above as the first meeting-place: trace it, hold it in the mind’s eye, and let impressions arrive without grabbing at them.
Set a gentle frame. Keep it simple — a black candle, a sunday, a little incense, a moment of quiet. If you work the Demonolatry current, chant the Enn softly — more like settling than commanding.
Bring the real theme. Practitioners associate Cimejes with recovering lost or hidden objects and locating treasure, courage, resolve, and a martial or warrior bearing. Name what you actually want, and ask — don’t demand.
Journal before and after, and treat everything as your own experience, not fixed doctrine.

Never alone — the angel first. This is a shadow pole, and the whole discipline of this path is that you never reach for one by itself. Call its angel, Manakel (Shem angel #66), first; work behind protection, inside a cast circle; and witness, don't become. If you have not yet read it, start with The Goetic Spirits — Safely. This is advanced work and it is not a substitute for mental-health care.

Rank, legions, direction and office are from the public-domain grimoires (Weyer 1577; Mathers & Crowley, The Goetia, 1904). Images are public domain: the 1904 seal. The Enn and the planet/day/colour/tarot correspondences are modern attributions (Demonolatry and compilations), flagged as such; sources disagree, and no copyrighted description or artwork is reproduced. Angel pairing per the Rudd tradition. Take the technique, never the tribe.
