Baphomet, the much maligned Horned Goat, graces the front of this gorgeous altar chalice.
Originally intended to be correctly understood by only initiates of the Mystery Traditions, in more recent times Baphomet has been greatly misunderstood, maligned and sometimes abused by the ignorant and those who are unable to perceive its true meaning. Alternately titled "The Sabbatic Goat" (in reference to rites once held in honor of the divine goat of Mendes in ancient Egypt). It is also "Baphomet of the Templars" ( the order of the Knights Templar, the forerunners of modern Freemasonry). Ceremonial magicians and Witches have often recognized this symbol as one of the many representations of the Horned God, although this figure is never worshiped.
To quote Levi, "Baphomet is not a God: he is the sign of initiation. He is also the hieroglyphic figure of the great divine TETRAGRAMMATON ... he is a hold-over from the cherubs of the ark and the holy of holies ... he is the guardian of the key to the temple ... the goat which is represented in our frontispiece bears upon it's forehead the sign of the pentagram with one point in the ascendant, which is sufficient to distinguish it as a symbol of light ... between his horns he carries the torch of life, and the living soul of this torch is God ... it is also the type of the soul exalted above matter, even while cleaving to matter, as the flame cleaves to the torch."
This cold cast resin chalice is 6 3/4 inches high with a removable stainless steel cup.
