#19 · Duke
Sallos
The 19th of the seventy-two, a duke. Causes love between man and woman (peaceable). In the language of this path, Sallos is a shadow pole — worked only with its angel, Leuviah.

What the grimoires say
In the 1904 Goetia, Sallos is a Duke governing 30 legions. Causes love between man and woman (peaceable).
A gallant soldier riding a crocodile, wearing a ducal crown, and behaving peaceably. A great and mighty Duke over 30 legions.
“The Nineteenth Spirit is called Sallos (or Saleos). He is a Great and Mighty Duke, and appeareth in the form of a gallant Soldier, riding on a Crocodile, with a Ducal Crown on his head, but peaceably. He causeth the Love of Women to Men, and of Men to Women; and governeth 30 Legions of Spirits. (Mathers/Crowley, Goetia, 1904 — public domain)”— Mathers & Crowley, The Goetia (1904), public domain
The shadow it carries
Stripped to the bone, Sallos's traditional office turns on love and mutual attraction between partners. 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 Leuviah; met together, behind protection, Sallos 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 | 2 of Swords (Libra 0-10 deg); Rudd system gives 2 of Cups | modern / Golden Dawn decan; varies by system |
| Zodiac / decan | Libra 1st decan (0-10 deg), day demon; Rudd system places him in Cancer 0-5 deg | modern (Connolly / Golden Dawn); differs from Rudd |
| Planet | Venus | modern correspondence table (fits his love/attraction domain) |
| Day | Friday | modern correspondence table |
| Element | Earth | modern Demonolatry (Goetic Impressions); Golden Dawn decan would give Water |
| Metal | Copper | modern correspondence table |
| Candle colour | Green | modern correspondence table |
| Incense | Sandalwood | modern correspondence table |
| Animal | Crocodile | traditional / grimoire appearance |
| Date-window | Sep 23-Oct 2 (Connolly) / Jun 22-26 (Runyon) | modern demon-calendar; varies by source |
Its modern Enn — a chant from the Demonolatry current, not found in any grimoire:
“Serena Alora Sallos Aken" — MODERN”
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 green candle, a friday, 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 Sallos with peaceful, gentle approach — he is explicitly 'peaceable', not coercive, reconciling and warming relationships rather than forcing them. Name what you actually want, and ask — don’t demand.
- Journal before and after, and treat everything as your own experience, not fixed doctrine.
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.
“The gentlest love lasts longest, because nothing had to break for it.”
