The Sigil of Baphomet: History, Meaning

by Magister Frost 17 Sep 2025

Before it was etched into medallions, stitched onto hoodies, or branded into our bones, the Sigil of Baphomet was a whisper. A challenge. A symbol waiting to be claimed.

It didn’t rise from nothing. Its roots twist deep into esoteric history, tangled with mysticism, fear, rebellion, and self-possession. But it was Anton LaVey who sharpened it into the icon we know today. In 1966, with the founding of the Church of Satan, the image was solidified: a goat’s head, framed in an inverted pentagram, ringed by the Hebrew letters spelling Leviathan. Clean. Stark. Daring you to look away.

LaVey didn’t create it to scare the world. He used it to reflect it. The goat—often mistaken as a monster—stood as a reminder of our animal nature. The pentagram turned downward not to insult but to re-anchor power from the heavens back to Earth. And Leviathan? The coiled chaos beneath the surface, always present, always ours.

To those of us who wear it, the Sigil isn’t aesthetic. It’s autobiography. It marks the moment we stopped apologizing. The day we chose our own name. The hour we burned down someone else’s paradise and built a throne in the ashes.

It’s why at Satanme, we treat the Sigil like scripture. Whether it’s the Original Baphomet T-Shirt, the Bloodmoon Medallion, or the Long Sleeve Sigil Edition, every piece is a kind of armor—not to protect you from the world, but to remind you what you are in it.

Because you don’t wear the Sigil to impress anyone. You wear it to remember.

To own.

To rise.
