Baphomet: Meaning, Magick & Infernal Union

What does Baphomet represent within Luciferianism? The layers of symbol and cipher, along with the syncretic iconography has a distinct and deep association within many aspects and different paths within the Luciferian tradition. Baphomet not only represents the mysteries of inner alchemy, known as the ’Infernal Union’, also to the aspirant with self-determination, opening the gates of the abyss and the wisdom-entrenched liminality of initiation upon the Left-Hand Path. Baphomet and the Sabbatic Goat are presented in several often unrecognized layers of hidden knowledge, a theriomorphic ’black mirror’ which shines back to the beholder of night: the luminous flame inherent and an obscure birth-right of those cultivating the Black Flame.
