Uncover the truth of who Baphomet is, how they have evolved through history, and how to work with them in your occult practice. This book explores the creation and proliferation of a deity who began as a Knights Templar symbol, was made into an icon of astral light and alchemy by Eliphas Lévi, and became famous in the works of Aleister Crowley.
Sharing rituals, invocations, and meditations, Michael Osiris Snuffin shows you how to build a relationship with Baphomet and perform altar work that celebrates their energy. Michael also introduces you to the symbolic faces of Baphomet, from the outsider (for subverting the system) to the transmuter (for facilitating personal change). Through historical texts, illustrations, and perspectives on Baphomet from diverse practitioners, this book demystifies an often misunderstood but essential part of esotericism.
