Satan's Steed by Wizardiaoan
The
Invocation of Baphomet
by
Leon Lashtal
Begin by Banishing with the
Star Ruby, followed by the Ritual of the Mark of the Beast
(Liber V Vel
Reguli).
Facing east, standing in
front of thy altar set with your elemental weapons and the XVth Atu (1)
form the Sign of the Attitude of Baphomet and recite in a loud
voice,
“Thee I invoke, hidden lord
Baphomet
Thy Secret Servant of
Ra-Hoor-Khuit
Holy Master of the Mass of
Mithras
And IO Pan enwrapped in
mischief
Thou whose armor is
impenetrable
Who bears the lance that is
invincible
The one Leviathan cannot
consume
Thee I invoke under this
full moon (2)
O’ Goat of Mendes, whose
blood I adore
Androgynous lover of
Babalon’s whore
The Heretical idol of the
Templar’s lord
Thee I invoke, by my wand
and my sword
Now form the Sign of Pan or
Bacchus for the reception and recite,
“Behold it is I, the goat
and wise master
Seducing my lover with
leaping laughter
Disguised I was the Serpent
of Edom
Granting gifts of gnosis
and wisdom
Now it is I with the
pantacle of power
Sitting enthroned atop the
fallen tower
It is I who holds the sword
of destiny
And conceal in my eye the
magickal key
For I am the lord of the
path of Ayin
Horned redeemer and
begetter of sin
And I am the lord of
darkness and light
By thy will it shall be in
this holy rite”
To conclude sit in an
Asanic posture, preferably the Dragon and meditate on the symbolism of
the XVth ATU or a substituted image for a few moments. Remaining in
posture intone the name “Ba-pho-met” for several minutes. Then rise,
collect yourself, and give the License to Depart.
Notes
1. The XVth ATU can be
substituted with an illustration of the Sabbatic Goat, a Statue of Pan,
a goat skull or any other item which represents the concept of
Baphomet, Pan, or the esoteric Devil. You may also wish to burn a musk
or hemp incense and invoke Hadit through Hashish prior to operation, as
it corresponds to the path of Ayin.
2. This invocation should
be performed at night and if it is not during a full moon then this
line of the invocation should be altered so that it reflects the proper
moon cycle (ie. waxed moon, waned moon, full moon).
