[[Eliphas Levi]] illustrated his concepts in the symbolic representation which he called the [[Baphomet]] in a book published in 1856, which is the horned devil, and this symbol is still used commonly today. A hundred years later, Anton LaVey and his atheistic [[Church of Satan]] adopted the [[Baphomet]] symbolism in 1966. | [[Eliphas Levi]] illustrated his concepts in the symbolic representation which he called the [[Baphomet]] in a book published in 1856, which is the horned devil, and this symbol is still used commonly today.

In Levi’s depiction of Baphomet, the goat-man is shown to be seated upon a black stone cube, portraying it with wings, breasts, and an emblazoned pentagram with an [[Islam]]ic symbol of a lunar crescent on each side flank. This lunar and cube symbolism reflect the ancient sacrificial practices of moon goddess worship that directly connect to the spawn of the dark feminine satanic force of [[Black Lilith]] herself. | In Levi’s depiction of Baphomet, the goat-man is shown to be seated upon a black stone cube, portraying it with wings, breasts, and an emblazoned pentagram with an [[Islam]]ic symbol of a lunar crescent on each side flank.
