The "Goat of Mendes" is represented in the occult by the inverted pentagram (or inverted five-pointed star) and is common to witchcraft, satanism, and some other occult traditions or organizations .
It is considered to be an extremely diabolical symbol by persons familiar with occult esoteric teachings and practices.
It represents what is known as the Baphomet representation of an evil horned god.
The Egyptian "roots" are shocking, and leave a trail of evil with an expanding base of influence in our century.
In medieval times the Devil was sometimes called the Goat of Mendes because at this temple in ancient Egypt bizarre rituals were performed involving naked priestesses performing the sex act with goats.

In the widespread witchcraft organization known as Wicca it is in the higher degrees or levels (esoteric teachings) where the initiates learn that the Horned God of the inverted pentagram represents Lucifer.
The right hand side is masculine and sacred to the Horned God (who we in Wicca eventually learned was Lucifer).

The Templars in their contacts in the Middle East adopted a legacy which can be traced to Egyptian mystery religion in one of it's most horrifying manifestations.
Having embraced Gnosticism while in Palestine, and in touch with the sect of the Assassins, the Templar order degenerated, and some of its members, under the influence of that sect, were said to practice Phallicism or sex-worship and Satanism and to venerate "The Baphomet", the idol of the Luciferians.
The crime of Sodomy was a rite of Templar initiation.

In their confessions the knights said that Templar initiation ceremonies took place at night in candlelit chapels.
Initiates were forced to renounce their Christian faith as a sign of their loyalty to the Order and to spit, urinate or trample on a crucifix.

The androgynous figure of Baphomet has female breasts and the lower part of its body is veiled portraying the mysteries of generation.
However the phallic nature of the goat god is symbolized by the caduceus symbol of a wand entwined with two serpents which was carried by Hermies.
This symbol hides the erect penis of the Baphomet figure. Its belly is covered with scales representing the reptilian origin of the human race in the evolutionary process.

The reptilian, serpent association of Lucifer, represented in the Baphomet, began with the "serpent" which corrupted the first human pair, and has been honored and represented in pagan mystery religion since.
The philosophical "lie" by Lucifer that humans can attain "godhood" through the auspices of Lucifer, that man or woman can "evolve" to godhood by occult methods involving escalating degrees of spiritistic "illumination" entrenches evolution as a dogma in the occult tradition.
The Baphomet represents the depiction of the ancient mystery religion from Egypt, it's goat god, sex magic, and spiritistic "illumination."
Thus, the Templar tradition in secret societies is not a reference to protecting pilgrims journeying to the Holy Land from "infidels."
The Templar tradition represents a tradition of Luciferianism, of Baphomet or Goat of Mendes worship, and a tradition of sex magic with it's diabolical effects.
Ramsey ... in 1736 ... addressed a gathering of French Masons and referred to the Templar tradition.
He revealed that Masonry was the heir to the secrets of the Templars who in turn had inherited the ancient wisdom of the pagan Mysteries.

In 1736, only nineteen years after the formation of the Grand Lodge in England in 1717, Masonry, in a French address, was identified as "heir to the secrets of the Templars who in turn had inherited the ancient wisdom of the pagan Mysteries."
The transformation or impacting of "speculative" Freemasonry by Templarism should not be surprising, since before his death in 1314, Jacques de Molay, the last Grand Master of the officially banned Order, set up Lodges to perpetuate the Templar tradition in Edinburg, Scotland; and Paris, France; and elsewhere.
De Molay had "instituted what afterward came to be called the Occult, Hermetic, or Scottish Masonry." [p. 820, Morals and Dogma, Albert Pike]
Thus, the depths of Freemasonry, as attributed to by Albert Pike, the man who wrote the degrees of the Ancient and Scottish Rite in their present form, are not simply a continuation of pagan traditions of the "operative" masons who built the cathedrals of Europe, but the perpetuation of the traditions of the Templars themselves.
The origins of Freemasonry reach further back in time than the stone Masons of Europe, even as Pike pointed out.
Hence Free-Masonry, vulgarly imagined to have begun with the Dionysian Architects or the German Stone-workers, adopted Saint John the Evangelist as one of its patrons, associating with him, in order not to arouse the suspicions of Rome ...."
p. 818 Morals and Dogma, Albert Pike
The midevil cathedrals bear the scars of sinister subversions with witchcraft symbols and fertility symbols, phallic worship.
The "operative masons" who through their building craft subverted those structures, formed a pattern for the lodges of "speculative" Masonry, a new "magical order" in England.
The religious and political designs of "speculative" Freemasonry would provide the "vehicle" for the "ultimate secret society."
The secret society stage was ripe for Weishaupt's formation of the "ultimate secret society" in which "all occult systems could be reduced to a single, powerful organization."
The "empire of evil ... spreading by all the occult means at their disposal" obtained in Adam Weishaupt an unholy godfather to direct the evil empire's activities under a central authority by the Illuminati.
