Baphomet

Resting in the centre of a pentagram, the globe of the earth acts
as Baphomet’s seat. Sitting cross-legged on top of the world, Baphomet sits,
symbolising the sum total of the universe. Legs ending in cloven hooves, the
staff of Asclepius rises from their crotch. Their right arm is raised in a
magical blessing with the word SOLVE (Latin word for Separate) written on their forearm, while their left
arm is stretched downwards and outwards invitingly, forearm bearing the word
COAGULA (Latin for Join together). Note to position of the arms with the right arm pointing up "AS ABOVE" and the left arm with fingers pointing down, "SO BELOW", reminiscent of the Magician Card. Their triple-horned goat’s head stares directly forwards as their
wings stretch out behind them. Worshipped by occultists from Jacques de Molay’s
Templars to Alistair Crowley, Baphomet has long been a symbol of free-thinking
heresy and forbidden knowledge.

Baphomet embodies the culmination of the alchemical process – the union of opposing forces to create Astral Light – the basis of magic and ultimately enlightenment.

Baphomet can be seen as a direct inspiration of the iconic Devil card from the Rider Wait Tarot
