Satanic Goat Beer Stein Mugs

 

Views:Product  Design

Indulge in a bit of brew while showing the blokes at the pub why they don't see you in church much. Hoist a tankard and shout "Hail Satan!" The image, in classic blue, is a historic one. In 1854, French occultist Eliphas Levi published his famous book on the Doctrine and Ritual of Transcendental Magic. The frontispiece included an engraving which he called "Baphomet" and "The Goat of Mendes." The image horrified many and inspired others in what has been called the French occult revival of the 19th century. The figure represented the absolute and featured various occult symbols including a point-up pentagram on the forehead, mudra handsigns, and the words "Solve" and "Coagula" on the arms. Despite the graphic's intended of representing occult wisdom generally, orthodox Christians have long characterized it as satanic. Those of a truly devilish bent, however, have tended to find the old image dated, tame and thus uninspiring. Here that classic image is re-created with explicitly Satanic imagery and symbols; the point-down pentagram, the inverted cross, the 666, the brimstone alchemical glyph, etc. Let there be no question of representation of this archetype. No need to wear a slightly disturbing, ambiguously evil symbol. Now you can have a provocative, unmistakably satanic image.
