	~~The~~ '''[[~~First Mirror of Lilith~~]]''' is a [[~~ritual magic\|ritual~~]] ~~to invoke~~ [[~~Lilith~~]] ~~and ask her questions through the assistance of~~ [[~~necromancy~~]] ~~using a mirror engraved with~~ [[~~King Solomon\|Solomonic~~]] ~~symbols and text. The ritual recalls Lilith's identity as a mirror spirit found~~ in the ~~''[[Zohar]]''~~ in ~~Pekudei: Verse 920. In this verse, any man who vainly looks into~~ a ~~mirror during the night of a new moon risks awakening~~ the [[~~demon~~]] ~~Asirta, who in turn, will summon Lilith to torment him~~.		'''[[Metatron]]''' is an [[angel]] in [[Judaism]], [[Christianity]], and [[Islam]] mentioned three times in the Talmud, in a few brief passages in the Aggadah, and in mystical [[Kabbalah\|Kabbalistic]] texts within Rabbinic literature.

	The ~~only known Renaissance-era ritual involving Lilith comes from~~ the ~~fifteenth-century [[Munich Manual~~ of ~~Demonic Magic]]~~. ~~Among~~ the ~~book's magical workings, many of which are unique to this manual~~, is ~~a ritual called~~ the ~~First Mirror of Lilith (''primum speculum Lilit'')~~. ~~This operation~~ is ~~a form of~~ [[~~divination]] using [[necromancy~~]]. ~~By constructing~~ and ~~consecrating a mirror to Lilith~~, the ~~[[magician]] may discover information concerning murders, thefts, and other hidden matters~~.		The figure forms one of the traces for the presence of dualist proclivities in the otherwise monotheistic visions of both the Tanakh and later Christian doctrine. In the Jewish kabbalistic tradition, he is sometimes portrayed as serving as the celestial scribe. The name Metatron is not mentioned in the Torah or the [[Bible]] and how the name originated is a matter of debate. In Jewish apocrypha and early Kabbalah, 'Metatron' is the name that Enoch received after his transformation into an angel.
