Baphomet Old Style mug
Over a century ago, Oswald Wirth (today famous for his popular deck of tarot cards) created an illustration in Stanislas de Guaita's 1897 book "La Clef de la Magie Noire" depicting a goat's head in a point down pentagram. The symbol was purported to be the magical sigil of those who rejected mainstream religious and moral strictures and, instead, followed the Left Hand Path. Wirth believed that a secret cabal of Freemasons practiced a form of cabalistic sorcery in league with Satan. His artful rendering of the "Sigil of Baphomet" is presented in this piece.
