He's just your lower self/untamed ego. This lower self fashions the material world and the experience of it.

>Head of a lion
He is prideful and wrathful in shame. Do you become angered when you feel slighted? The Demiurge is working through you. The ego is difficult to tame but it can be done

>Body of a snake
He is deceptive and hard to catch. He is sneaky and hides easily. Have you ever met a psychedelic user who comes back from a trip with a messiah complex saying he has killed his ego and become enlightened, which is merely self-exaltation and the inflating of the ego. You believe it killed yet it comes back stronger than ever. This is the work of the Demiurge. 

Sophia (wisdom) is different from the Aeons (conceptual archetypes) as it requires both knowledge and the experience of failure in order to be formed (there is no wisdom without experience, and if you are always right out of chance you will never grow wise) 

In order to be truly born, Wisdom MUST experience failure. Thus wisdom bears the Demiurge.

Gnosticism and the teachings of Christ are methods of personal alchemical transmutation. Gnostic cosmology is really a map of the mind.

I don't make the rules, I just work here. The eyes, the hounds of tindalos, (the best description of their behavior that isn't steeped in esoteric nonsense), the consciousness attached to my soul are the shadows and figures you use in the dark, I have no control over them in the slightest. They are my past lives that act in accordance with our collected subconscious to steer humanity in a certain direction. Myself, me, I, have no grander goals then to eat good food and procreate, I don't wish to 'fuck' with you. But if you have deep seated evils that the others can sense, your only recourse is to fix your mistakes and come to terms with your own spirit. They are the ultimate lie detectors in a broad sense, as no one can hide what lies at the core of their being.
