Christianity often represents the devil as “Baphomet.” Really, what is shown in the picture above is symbolic, and meant to represent the alchemical process, rather than an actual entity. Christ and the “devil” are really the same entity; ourselves.
“Baphomet,” as he is known, is derived from the Wiccan father spirit, or the Greek god Pan.
The Pentacle itself represents the five elements, and is mathematical in nature, relating to the Fibonacci spiral. The upright pentacle represents spirit over matter, and the upside down pentacle represents the opposite, therefore having a light and dark aspect.

Mabon Altar Ideas & Correspondences
Mabon, also known as the Autumn Equinox, marks the midpoint between the summer and winter solstices. It's a time to celebrate the abundance of the harvest season and express gratitude for the blessings of the year. One way to honor this occasion is by setting up a Mabon altar, adorned with items and symbols that resonate with the energy of the season. Here are a few ideas for when you’re putting your altar together.
The Altar Cloth: Choose an altar cloth in rich autumnal colors such as deep red, orange, or brown. These colors represent the changing leaves and the bountiful harvest.
Seasonal Fruits and Vegetables: Incorporate apples, pumpkins, squash, and corn, or any local harvests you have in your area. These are traditional symbols of the harvest and abundance during Mabon.
Candles: Use candles in colors associated with Mabon, such as gold, yellow, orange, or deep red. These represent the changing colors of the land. Alternatively, you could use black and white candles to represent the balance of dark and light on the equinox.
Crystals: Consider placing crystals like citrine, amethyst, or jasper on your altar. These stones resonate with the energies of balance, gratitude, and abundance.
Symbols of Balance: Include items that represent the balance of day and night, such as a yin-yang symbol or two candles, one for the sun and one for the moon.
Leaves and Acorns: Collect fallen leaves and acorns to symbolize the changing season and the promise of new growth in the future.
Chalice and Bread: A chalice filled with wine or cider and a loaf of bread represent the traditional elements of water and earth, symbolizing the harvest's bounty.
Deity Representations: If you work with specific deities in your practice, add representations of them to your altar. Some gods and goddesses associated with Mabon include Demeter, Persephone, and the Green Man.
Mabon Correspondences
Colors: Deep red, orange, yellow, brown, and gold.
Herbs: Sage, marigold, hops, and thistle.
Foods: Apples, grapes, nuts, grains, and root vegetables.
Symbols: Scales, cornucopias, and the autumn wreath.
Activities: Apple picking, making wreaths, offering prayers of gratitude, and sharing a feast with loved ones.
Intentions: Reflect on balance in your life, give thanks for your blessings, and set intentions for the darker months ahead.
May you be blessed with abundance and gratitude.
