A symbolic figure representing the union of opposites, often depicted as a goat-headed figure with both masculine and feminine traits, angelic wings, and occult symbolism. Commonly associated with esotericism, mysticism, and spiritual duality, Baphomet embodies the balance between light and darkness, good and evil, virtue and sin, and spiritual and carnal forces.
A term historically linked to accusations against the Knights Templar, who were falsely accused of worshipping a mysterious idol named Baphomet.
A symbol later adopted in occult traditions, particularly in 19th-century mysticism, where Baphomet came to represent enlightenment, transcendence, and the reconciliation of opposites.
Etymological Theories
- Corruption of Mahomet: Some historians believe Baphomet was a medieval distortion of Mahomet (an archaic form of Muhammad), stemming from Crusader-era propaganda that demonized Islam.
- Greek Origin: Another theory links Baphomet to the Greek phrase Baphé Métous (Βάπτησις τῆς Μετοῦς), meaning baptism of wisdom. While this explanation fits occult symbolism, it’s debated due to weak linguistic evidence.
- Invented Symbol: Some scholars suggest Baphomet was a purely fabricated term designed to evoke mystery or spiritual ambiguity, later embraced by occultists like Eliphas Lévi.
