Amuku Sanniya

37
Ammit stands in the Halls of Justice and
weighs the newly deceased’s heart on the Great
Balance, a gigantic scale, against a feather of
Maat, the goddess of justice and truth. If the
heart is heavier than the feather, Ammit devours
it, destroying the person’s soul.

Ammon
Variations: AAMON, AMAIMON, AMAN, AMAYAmo, AMOYMON, Amoyon, the Wolf
Originally Ammon was an ancient Egyptian
god of the sun, but by the time his name
appeared in the Lemegeton, he had been demonized by scholars. The King of the East and a
Marquis of Hell, as well as one of the seventytwo SPIRITS OF SOLOMON, Ammon is the demon
of life and reproduction, commanding forty legions of demonic servitors (see KINGS OF HELL
and MARQUIS OF HELL). Ammon looks like a
wolf with a snake for a tail but can shape-change
to appear as a man with either a crow’s (or owl’s)
head, his beak filled with doglike teeth. He is
summoned because of his knowledge of all things
that have ever happened. He can divine the future
and reunite old friends who have become enemies.

Amousias
Amousias, Greek for “without music,” is the
name of a demon or devil listed in many sources
but with no other information given.

Amoymon
Variations: Amai’moit, AMAIMON, AMAYMON,
Amoy’mon
King of the Eastern (or Western, depending
on the source) portion of Hell as well as a Grand
President of Eastern Hades, Amoymon has command over ASMODEUS, a lieutenant as well as one
of his princes (see KINGS OF HELL and PRESIDENTS OF HELL). Amoymon is best summoned
between the hours of 9 A.M. and noon and again
later in the day from 3 P.M. till 6 P.M., when his
powers are at their peak. When he appears to his
summoner, he does so as a man with poisonous
breath. It is so deadly that the other kings and
PRINCES OF HELL are said to wear a silver ring
on the middle finger of their left hand as a means
of protecting themselves from it. When Amoymon
appears, he will very often do so with ASMODEUS
by his side. If proper respect is not paid to his favorite prince, Amoymon will deliberately foul any
request made of him (see FOUR PRINCIPAL KINGS).

Amuku Sanniya
In Sinhalese demonology Amuku Sanniya is
the demon of stomach disorders and vomiting as
well as the diseases and illnesses that cause them.
He is depicted in ceremonial masks as having a
green face, large eyes wide open, and a tongue
partially protruding from his mouth. Amuku
Sanniya, like the other Sinhalese demons, is susceptible to the DAHA-ATA SANNIYA.
