What books or literature do you recommend that someone read to learn more about Baphomet I would like to create you alter to Baphomet and also do you believe that someone can merely work at the energies of Baphomet because this is what I intend to do

To me baphomet is a symbol of the perfectly balanced witch.Nothing in the cosmos left out.Baphomet is a focus point for a witches life as well as ritual.Also Baphomet has become a unity symbol of the left hand path.Also the extra bonus is it scares the hell out of those who would destroy u.Dont cop out about every negative thing said about us.Become their antichrist and use it as a weapon.In the end Baphomet is a symbol of the divine unity as a whole, instead of taking it in, in sections.Blessed Beast

From the ancients- the Goat (an animal found climbing in the mountains) is seen as a symbol of Man striving to reach god (through his building of temples, representing mountains). This is probably why this figure is historically tied to the Freemasons. While am not a Mason, but a member of the Order of the Eastern Star, this is still a powerful symbol to my Brothers. Baphomet represents to me- fertility, ancient alchemy and the Duality (male & female/light & dark) aspects of nature. As a kid, was mesmerized by the sight of the E. Levi’s Baphomet & it’s still a mysterious & mystical image to me today. As above, so below. So mote it be.

Baphomet came to me in a slumber/meditation once, while listening to youtube videos about the founding fathers/illuminati. To me, Baphomet is a very powerful, esoteric beast, symbolizing power and wisdom. He is also a darker creature to me, because he is a creature that is deeply routed in history and mysticism. The founding fathers used Baphomet as symbolism for their knowledge about mysticism and power, and being able to form a foundation for a new country and it’s beliefs, based on that deeply engrained knowledge of esoteric magic and power that went back all the way to ancient egypt. To me, the Baphomet invokes fear in me, however, not terror. Fear that has to do with the bloodshed that has occurred in forming a country of powerful force/masculinity, however, rooted in feminine essence/rooting/grounding. The Baphomet, to no offense, to anyone, is a backwards symbolism of esoteric knowledge, teaching us on a level we can understand, through symbolism, to very deep and dark, levels of light. I hope this comes across to you, in the right way, making sense to you, as I see/feel/understand it/based on my knowledge of it.

Hey BWC ?

To me baphomet means the god of magic or the symbol of magic….
Symbolizing the occult and it meanings… “But baphomet has many meanings”… And one of the meanings are to keep people afraid of the statue/idol, To draw them away from the occult…. But really baphomet is just a symbol… A Symbol of light and darkness, Good And Evil, Love, Power, Wisdom, Knowledge and Etc…. Every part On The baphomet Body has a Different meaning to it….

Baphomet was an abomination to my eyes and soul. I looked upon it with disdain, but at the same time a curiosity. I researched this idol and learned its history and its origins. Once i learned for myself what i felt it was, i was no longer disturbed by it. What others write about Baphomet is the significance to them. For me it is different, hence why we as people are so amazing and special. I do not use Baphomet in any of my spellwork. But i respect what the idol is, what its history was and is to different types of people. And i believe that is the answer to this. It is the individual that must come to terms to what it is for them. Each piece of Baphomet body can be be a learning tool. Male arm and female arm, torch, Pentacle ect, all represent something. In a world that will never accept people who do not follow a certain Christian church, or Islam or any other belief, it seems to me the perfect symbol for being a rebel. The Knights Templar being betrayed by those that it fought to defend (the church) and in turn crucified for heresy. Perfect example how the church can betray us a people. So for me it is a symbol of rebellion against man and the lies therein.

In reply to G. Lantz. Your post is "Way Cool" and thank you for your wisdom Dr. G. As always, I learn something new with our conversations and by your posts. In particular, today I will draw my attention to what you said in conclusion, "the torch, burning brightly above Baphomet’s head, and between the horns that allow, that encourage us to embrace life, represents intelligence, enlightened wisdom, without blemish." This gift of wisdom and enlightenment offered by Baphomet is overwheleming, so much so that it brings tears of appreciation to my eyes. Thank you again.

The first time I saw the symbol of Baphomet, when I was in my mid-teens, I was sitting in my school’s library, and exclaimed, out loud, “Way Cool!” Now, low these many, many years later, and after having shared this story with a number of close friends, my response to the symbol of Baphomet remains, “Way Cool!”

For me, Baphomet has always represented the tension required as we balance between the opposing poles of positive and negative, male and female, right and left, up and down, night and day, etc. It’s the tension, oft times the aggravation, which promotes evolution. Our evolution, the planets evolution; everything, in a constant state of contracting and expanding. Baphomet is truly representative of the divine substance, the “Prima Materia” from which all things are made manifest. Baphomet for me, is that “space,” that doorway between the inhalation and the exhalation … not coming nor going, and not a rests, but the eternal “now”.

Likewise, when I use my pendulum, I see Baphomet as that moment when the pendulum reaches the arch of movement in one direction, be it back and forth, or whatever directions it may be moving between, where for one brief and all-encompassing moment, it isn’t swaying back and forth, nor resting, no preparing, but is exemplifying true spiritual balance … what is often referred to in Buddhism as, “Action in Non-Action,” accomplishing without all the fuss.

I could go on, ad nauseam, but let me conclude with this; the torch, burning brightly above Baphomet’s head, and between the horns that allow, that encourage us to embrace life, represents intelligence, enlightened wisdom, without blemish. While it may mean and move me in one direction upon my path, it’s likewise one of Baphomet’s greatest gifts that each and every one find within the symbol, what moves them most, what catapults them forward into engagement with life, all without the stain, and waste of time, of judgment of another, who walks their path alongside and within the divine pleroma of presentation.

For me, also the Baphomet means the perfect combination of “light and dark” “male and female” . I believe The androgynous nature of Baphomet is important to note because the worship of this deity goes back to the Knights Templar, who were the ancestors to modern Freemasonry.

Im Wesley and im 20 i have only been practicing for 7 and a half years and studying as hard as I can with what means I have, but to me the Baphomet means a solid representive of the universe in which we see in a phisical form and its amazing how us humans need this but to me it helps balance my craft whether it be lighter or darker in nature and this symbol physically gives me what I need in order to achive this. I think its beautiful and and amazing thank you black witch coven for being so informative those years ago when pre judgement clouded the truth.
thanks Wesley Main

In reply to Kathy.

Hi Kathy,

Sen Elias is a talented and genuine conjureman/witch for sure.

Please share with me what you discover as you meditate and connect deeper into the complexities of the Baphomet. I wouldn’t say the Baphomet is as clear as a message from a Tarot or Oracle deck, but perhaps after time, it could be a stronger and more personalized message.

Blessed Beast!

I have not read the writing about it yet, because I want to say only what is coming to me without any knowledge of it. I often say this about lots of magical items, oils, candles, psychics before they tell me they are psychic like at psychic fairs, and what this means to me is a path outside of physical restrictions, like into another world or something. Ever since I stepped into kindergarten up to today, the schools maybe from first grade, but especially fourth grade up to today, all education levels demand to control my thinking and how I feel, they hide anything I do that don’t fit their words on paper about me. And is why I am so fascinated with magic. To protect my interests, what I like from the ultimate control of the schools. When I look at the statue, I definitely get a feeling, which I will probably meditate to it later. It is an energy, very mysterious to me, and I want to know more about it. Can it give messages like tarot cards?

And thank you Black Witches, for me finding out about Sen Aliases in New Orleans. He certainly is a n ultimate blessing. Talented!

Baphomet is in a figure the aspiration of the aspirant. The goat of the people’s -earthy, hardy, suited to lands- has rested on the middle pillar of the tree and the horn of knowledge has grown upwards to reach the hidden sephiroth. His seat is the world of malkuth but not as a foot stool, for his fleet hooves need no such device. He is symbol of the Astral plane itself, elements of the paths and their corresponding symbols are blended as one token experience. To see a dark shade to the figure is to know the aspirant has become that to which the qilpoth may aspire in turn in ascending the tree. I have to keep the image hidden, for I have no family or friends open minded enough to receive it

To me, Baphomet means all-knowing wisdom and represents the balance of light and darkness. Personally, Baphomet gives me peace.

Baphomet is, to me, a symbol that represents balance of the forces of, well, everything. It is a lot of different ideas wrapped into one symbol. Animal and human, dark and light, above and below, natural and supernatural, male and female, etc

The Baphomet to me is a neutral energy. Neither dark or light. Neither above or below. Neutral.
I feel love off Baphomet. A mass energy of love. I feel protected by Baphomet.
Baphomet to me is beautiful. I see both male and female in Baphomet. Pure elegance and regalness on his throne. Thank you 😉

I admit, I have major curiosities for Baphomet. No, I do not work with him yet or have started. YET. Many times I have seen this image and feel comfortable. After reading the very well written article it brings my understanding to this: he represents a lot of what I live. I’m a total believer in balance in every form in every angle in life. You cannot have dark without light or light without dark, positive without negative, death without life and so on. The pic Savannah posted with him in candle light and a shadow draped on the wall behind him says it all without saying a word 🙂

Baphomet is the achetype of ‘All’ for me…balance being depicted and honored into the One. He gives me the freedom to live in the Light and the Dark and removes judgement from my Witchcraft world. He allows me to walk my LHP with security, support and a with such a primal and carnal drive I have never felt with any other archetype before. Xx
