Something clicked to me: Lucifer is called "The Morning Star" in the bible. The morning star in astrology is venus. Then I thought about how these two relate - venus is the planet of desire, perhaps selfish desire... it wants to be pleased and to be pampered. It's also related to music, and to beauty. All these are Luciferian in quality. Currently I'm trying to find some reliable readings on this. If anyone has any feel free to share, I'll share what I can find. I find it interesting. Especially since I realise that people who have "too much venus" in their charts tend to be charming and rather musical (in their voice, they don't have to sing) but at the same time very selfish.
I'm also considering the "fall of Lucifer". I'm not sure if it's the fall of venus itself (in virgo, not sure what that would mean), or perhaps the exile of Lucifer's negative obsessive qualities into it's opposite world (planet), pluto.

In Hinduism( tracing it's origins before Abrahamic religions) and in Sanskrit , the planet Venus is called Shukra. Named after a sage. He is described as exceedingly handsome. Shukra is called Shukracharya i.e. Shukra (His name) + 'Acharya '( Sanskrit of teacher ) = Shukracharya ( Shukra the teacher) . So , in Hinduism he's a learned sage as well as a teacher. But, He isn't a teacher of the Gods ( devas ) but He is the teacher of the Asuras ( Hindu views Asuras as evils ) . So long story short, He is the teacher of the 'evil' beings.
He is the step-brother of Goddess Lakshmi ( embodiment of wealth, beauty , glamor, prosperity, love, peace , sweets ) . She resembles Aphrodite by the domains She rules. Shukracharya is a loving teacher who roots for His asura students even telling them to do good things but they're evil in nature. He is devout and extremely loyal disciple of Hindu God Shiv ( yup, the one with long hair and trident with snakes) . Shukracharya knows the Mritasanjivani mantra or the spells that can make any corpse or dead being alive again no matter in what state the dead remains are . He learned that from Lord Shiv.
His direct enemy is Brihaspati
( Sanskrit name of Jupiter ) . He is the guru of the Gods in Heaven.
Asuras are said to be living in the Underworld and is said to be rich because Devi Lakshmi trace Her origins from the Underworld.
So, lots and lots of metaphors here.
But, in one sentence Shukracharya or Shukra or Venus is seen as a villainous figure by Hindus because of His associations with the Asuras .
Friday is called Shukravar . A day dedicated to Shukra .
All Indian films including the Hollywood ones are scheduled to be released on this particular day because yup, Friday is considered lucky in India. Most Hindus associate Shukravar/ Friday and the Venus with Goddess Lakshmi
( embodiment of glamor and prosperity ! )
So yup, another tracing of Venus to a goddess . Bingo! seashells and anything marine like conch shells are considered sacred to Lakshmi because She is said to be coming from the depth of the Sea , similar to Aphrodite ).
