The Baphomet, often depicted as a horned, androgynous figure with both masculine and feminine features, has long been misunderstood as a symbol of evil and satanic worship.
Its origins date back to the trials of the Knights Templar in the early 14th century, where they were accused of heresy and idolatry involving a mysterious figure known as Baphomet.
Over time, occultists like Eliphas Levi redefined the Baphomet as a symbol of spiritual balance, representing the union of opposites, light and dark, male and female, while modern interpretations, such as those by Aleister Crowley and Anton LaVey, further evolved it into an emblem of personal enlightenment, rebellion, and liberation from dogmatic structures.
Today, the Baphomet stands as a complex, provocative symbol that challenges conventional ideas and encourages deeper spiritual understanding.
