  • Baphomet

    Baphomet

    This enigmatic figure, known as Baphomet, was first described during the trials of the Templars, a medieval order of Crusader Monks accused of Heresy, witchcraft, and other crimes. The Order, founded in 1118 by nobleman Hughes de Payens, was the first of a number of “Military Orders.”

    Originally conceived as a means of protecting Christian pilgrims to Jerusalem, the new order excited the public imagination, and they became extraordinarily popular. They were exempted from taxation, and had amassed great wealth and property by the 13th century. (…)

    The interpretation of Baphomet pictured above was drawn by the nineteenth century occultist Eliphas Levi (Alphonse Constant), using elements from various descriptions. It was drawn with the head of a Goat, a human body with cloven feet and wings. According to Levi, it was a revelatory figure, requiring study to understand. This particular drawing is quite popular with Satanists and Ritual magicians, for varying reasons. However, save for a few details, Levi’s connection between his version of Baphomet, and the legendary idol of the Templars is mostly nonexistent.” – symboldictionary.net

    Levi described the figure as:
    “The goat on the frontispiece carries the sign of the pentagram on the forehead, with one point at the top, a symbol of light, his two hands forming the sign of hermeticism, the one pointing up to the white moon of the Quabbalic Chesed, the other pointing down to the black one of Geburah. This sign expresses the perfect harmony of mercy with justice. His one arm is female, the other male like the ones of the androgyn of Khunrath, the attributes of which we had to unite with those of our goat because he is one and the same symbol. The flame of intelligence shining between his horns is the magic light of the universal balance, the image of the soul elevated above matter, as the flame, whilst being tied to matter, shines above it. The ugly beast’s head expresses the horror of the sinner, whose materially acting, solely responsible part has to bear the punishment exclusively; because the soul is insensitive according to its nature and can only suffer when it materializes. The rod standing instead of genitals symbolises eternal life, the body covered with scales the water, the semi-circle above it the atmosphere, the feathers following above the volatile. Humanity is represented by the two breasts and the androgyne arms of this sphinx of the occult sciences.”

  • Goat of Mendes (Sigil of Baphomet, Sabbatic Goat)

    Goat of Mendes (Sigil of Baphomet, Sabbatic Goat)

    “The so-called “Mendes Pentacle” (sometimes, Mendez) or Sabbatic Goat emblem was first connected to Satanism in the nineteen sixties, falsely attributed to the nineteenth century occultist Eliphas Levi.

    This symbol is commonly confused with Levi’s depiction of the Templar icon Baphomet, which was never presented as a symbol of evil, but of harmony, redemption, and union with the divine. Nonetheless, the two have been confused so often it is nearly impossible to separate them in modern usage.

    The name “Mendes goat” derives from a connection Levi made between the Templar Baphomet, the Goat of the witch’s Sabbat (as depicted in popular art of the time), and the Egyptian god Ammon, of Mendes, Egypt.  According to Levi, an emblem of fertility and sexual freedom.  Levi’s connection was spurious-the God in question was represented by a ram, not a goat- but the confusion has persisted.

    A simplified version of the symbol shown was adopted as the emblem of Anton Lavey’s Church of Satan in 1966. The Hebrew letters surrounding the pentacle spell out “Leviathan,” the mythic sea monster of the Old Testament. This emblem is occasionally called the “Judas Goat” by modern Satanists.” From – symboldictionary.net

  • Leviathan Cross (Sulphur)

    Leviathan Cross (Brimstone/ Sulphur Nigrum)

    This glyph, created by Anton Lavey, is one of the emblems of the Church of Satan.
    It has no registered usage before the 1960’s and it is also difficult to see it outside that context.

    There is a common association to the alchemical element “Sulphur” but there is no evident connection between.
    As the alchemical “Sulphur” represents the concepts like the “Soul” or the “Internal Fire”; The “Leviathan Cross” has a less spiritual feeling. Some interpretations actually expose a sexual or carnal significance, according to the context of its usage.

    Different viewpoints affirm that the “Sulphur” is an element common to many demonologic descriptions. The smell of sulphur is often related to demonic presences.
    To avoid any kind of misunderstanding, it should be more accurate to use the word “Brimstone” instead of “Sulphur” from alchemy.

    Another curious association is found in the “Medicinisch- Chymisch- und Alchemistisches Oraculum” (a comprehensive listing of alchemical symbols from 1755) reveals a glyph with similarities with the Lavey’s symbol. The Sulphur Nigrum (Black Sulphur) could also be seen as an influence to the modern version.

  • Lilith

    Lilith

    “After the Holy One created the first human being, Adam, He said: “It is not good for Adam to be alone.” He created a woman, also from the earth, and called her Lilith.

    She responded: “We are both equal because we both come from the earth.”
    Neither listened to the other. When Lilith realized what was happening, she pronounced the Ineffable Name of God and flew off into the air.
    Adam rose in prayer before the Creator, saying, “The woman you gave me has fled from me.” Immediately the Holy One sent three angels after her.
    The Holy One said to Adam: “If she wants to return, all the better. If not, she will have to accept that one hundred of her children will die every day.”
    The angels went after her, finally locating her in the sea, in the powerful waters in which the Egyptians were destined to perish. They told her what God had said, and she did not want to return.” – Alphabet of Sirach.

    Saturn

    the planet Saturn represents the alchemical metal, lead.

  • Uranus/ Ouranos

    Uranus/ Ouranos

    (means the “sky” or “Heaven”.) was the primal Greek god personifying the sky. His name in Roman mythology was Caelus. In Ancient Greek literature, Uranus or Father Sky was the son and husband of Gaia, Mother Earth. (mythology).

    “The ancient Greeks and Romans knew of only five ‘wandering stars’  MercuryVenusMarsJupiter, and Saturn. Following the discovery of a sixth planet in the 18th century, there was some early disagreement regarding what to name it. Its discoverer, William Herschel, named it “The Georgian Star”, the name preferred by English astronomers. Others preferred to name it “Herschel”. Finally, the name Uranus was suggested by astronomer Johann Bode as the logical addition to the series, since Mars (Ares in Greek), Venus, and Mercury were the children of Jupiter, Jupiter (Zeus in Greek) the son of Saturn, and Saturn (Cronus in Greek) the son of Uranus. What is anomalous is that, while the others take Roman names, Uranus is a name derived from Greek in contrast to the Roman Caelus.” – wikipedia.org
