A Brief History of The Pentagram

Lately he has been smeared as a seal of Satanism, but the pentagram is a totem versatile, and there long before anyone got around to invent Satan.

The design is an equidistant five-pointed star drawn with one continuous movement of the pen. Sometimes the design is enclosed in a circle. The symbol dates back to 4000 BC at least, when it surfaced in the first form of writing, pictographic languages used in ancient Mesopotamia, whose alphabet consisted of little pictures that represent whole words.

No one knows what the pentagram meant to the Sumerians (despite what you may claim otherwise), but most of the stone tablets from this period include lists really simple, pragmatic - such as tax records, inventories and genealogies.
The chances are very good as the original meaning of the pentagram was something extremely boring, as the "cow". We wanted to say "person" because the shape is a famous head, two arms and two legs, or it would have meant "hand", with its five points representing the five fingers. But all this is pure conjecture.

Whatever its original context, it did not take long for the form to absorb a higher status. Pythagoras, a Greek philosopher who basically invented formal geometry, believed that the world has made math and that everything in life could be quantified and represented digitally.

Its premise is not too far from what a physicist would say today, but some of its direct conclusions were naive (in a manner appropriate to the time). Pythagoras was fascinated by the pentagram, and the six branches Hexagram, and spent much energy in analyzing its properties and its relationship to other forms.

Pythagoras made several comments about the pentagram, so that there is a pentagon inside, and if you draw a pentagon from the points of the star, it is inverted with respect to the inside of the one, and you can draw a pentagram with one continuous line. In other words, Pythagoras had little interesting to say on the subject, but he considered the design large enough for his followers used it as their badge. They felt that symbolizes health and perfection.

Pentagrams were also used by artists Jewish mysticism dating back to an unknown period of antiquity. The oldest examples have been documented in the synagogue with a few centuries after the beginning of the Christian era, but later, the legend says that the pentagram was also associated with King Solomon, under his seal and as a symbol well as in his temple.

Pentagrams have been frequently used in pagan, Jewish, Christian and Eastern mysticism same contexts as a symbol of almost everything by just five. Frequently, it has been taken as a symbol of the four alchemical elements - earth, air, fire and water - plus a fifth point, it means different things to different people, most often, is the divine energy or the human soul.
Because human beings around the world have five fingers, the number five is of significance in almost all cultures and the pentagram was a convenient carrier of this number. There are examples of the pentagram to be used in Taoism and other Chinese systems as a symbol of the five elements used in the Eastern cosmology - wood, metal, earth, fire and water. In some Christian traditions, including Gnosticism, the five points of the star represent the five wounds of Christ. Finally, other traditions derived star pentagram used as a representation of a star from the sky, presumably to artistically represent the flickering effect caused by atmospheric distortion.

During the Middle Ages, however, the pentagram has undergone a major transformation, which would permanently shape its image for centuries to come. Probably the most important document in pentagramology is the seal of Solomon, perhaps the most influential medieval grimoires that believers offer a chance to grasp the brass ring of cosmic powers.
The Seal of Solomon has inspired a large number of derivatives magickal texts, that spread far and wide pentagram. The status symbol has made a giant leap forward when it was adopted by the occult influenced by Freemasonry movement, and the related sects like the Star of the East, the Golden Dawn and OTO Masons May have taken their cue from the Knights Templar, who are perhaps posthumously, the sect most responsible for the association of the pentagram with satanic beliefs.

When the Templars were destroyed in the early 1300s, they were accused of numerous atrocities satanic, including the worship of any object that resembled a cat or a head called Baphomet.

While some have speculated that the object in question may have been the Shroud of Turin folded to display the head of the figure of Christ on the fabric, the popular conception of Baphomet was later influenced by occultist Eliphas Levi, then by Aleister Crowley and some of his acolytes.

Levi Baphomet propose a design that showed a picture of a goat's head inside an inverted pentagram, with horns extending up to the point of the star. The goat represents Satan, and the symbol was later adopted by Satanists School Anton LaVey. The symbol was then retroactively "discovered" to have a history occultist extent by age and occult New revisionist historians, who claimed it was an ancient symbol in almost all magical traditions, including traditional Witchcraft and Wicca , pseudo-Egyptian occultism, etc., etc..

At the time this association had been firmly established, the pentagram or completed in its variant has been institutionalized in the world in many different contexts - including religions, secret societies and many others - for example, in the Flag of the United States and the crescent and star symbol of Islam.

The retroactive - and largely inaccurate - Association of demonic pentagram with all things provided enough fodder for the loonies whose life is devoted to research to trace the influence of Satan black around the world.

The pentagram has also become a cornerstone of the new craze of conspiracy world order, where it is seen as a link between the lords of the military industrial complex and all-Masonic illuminati plot to dominate the world. As if they needed more encouragement.
