So, Lucifer could be the first supernova...
"The life of the eternal creature was in its beginning entirely free, because it was in the appropriate harmonious temperature. The angels were created for heaven, and even if the world of darkness with the realm of phantasy was contained therein, it was in latent condition, and not manifest. By the action of the free will in the fallen angels the world of darkness became objective in them; because they were inclined towards speculation, and consequently the latter took possession of them and arose in their essence." (Grace, iv. 45.)
"The realm of illusion has been from eternity, and gave cause to the angels' fall; it presented the conditions without which such a fall from the angelic state could not have taken place.
"The fiery lust, which was strong in Lucifer, incited him. Likewise the darkness (matter) wanted to become created (objective) in him." (Mysterium Magnum, ix. 9.)
The very divine beauty, and the high power and authority with which Lucifer was invested, incited him to attempt to rise above God, instead of surrendering himself to Him in humility,and thus he stimulated the activity of his latent principles in an unnatural manner.
"When the kingly body of Lucifer became organised, and his principles or qualities began to become qualified and unfolded, the lightning flash of life arose in his heart, and the spirit went from the heart back again into all the veins of his organising body, inflaming all the seven spirits. Thus he stood, a divine king, in transcendent clearness." (Aurora, xiv. 4.)
"When Lucifer saw that he was so very beautiful, and when he realised his high birth and great power, the spirit which he had generated in himself, his own free will, arose and became desirous to triumph over the divine birth, and to exalt itself above the heart of God." (Aurora, xiv. 13, 32.)
"When Lucifer was in such a kingly form, and placed in such high glory, his sourcive spirits were endowed with such a glorious light, they were filled with so much joy that they revolted against the natural law, and desired a still higher, prouder, and more magnificent qualification than God Himself. Then it happened that the acrid quality contracted her essence to such a state of hardness that the sweet water therein became exsiccated. Simultaneously the lightning flash was so glaring that it became intolerable to the rising spirits, because it went ihto the acrid quality in such a terrible manner, as if it wanted to burst them asunder with great joy." (Aurora, xiii. 116.)
