Mythological & Historical Archetypes
Lilith
The Primordial Dark Feminine
The ancient dark feminine archetype, said to seduce and manipulate through appearance. In some traditions, Lilith used energy and frequency-based glamour to appear irresistible, luring men to drain their life force.
Atlantis
The Priestesses of Seth
According to esoteric lore, these women were exiled from the Temples of Light for using sacred feminine energy for manipulation. They mastered the original glamour magick – using smoke, mirrors, and frequency to mask their true form and appear youthful, seductive, or divine—while feeding off the energy they siphoned from others.
Morgana Le Fay
Arthurian Legend
A powerful enchantress who used spells, illusions, and beauty to control men and distort reality. Often depicted as both beautiful and terrifying, depending on her intent—classic glamour traits.
Circe
Greek Mythology
A sorceress who used potions and enchantments to control perception. She could make men see beauty while she transformed them into beasts. Their desires became illusions, and their fate was sealed by a spell they never saw coming.
Elizabeth Báthory
The Blood Countess
The infamous “Blood Countess,” rumored to bathe in the blood of virgins to retain her youth. Though much of her story is dark legend, she’s often seen as a glamour archetype—obsessed with beauty to the point of horror.
The Deer Woman
Native American Mythology
A shapeshifting spirit with deer legs who appears as a beautiful woman, luring men in forests or during rites of passage. Her seductive glamour—both natural and supernatural—punishes those who disrespect feminine power, leading them to madness or death.
