represents dark side or evil. Because the inverted Pentagram is illustrated with a goat s head, a symbol adopted and made by Anton Szandor La Vey when in 1966 he
started the Church of Satan in San Francisco. He needed a logo for his church that s why he took a description logo made by Eliphas Levi in his book The Key of Great
Mysteries . In his book Levi describes the inverted Pentagram as representing the horns of a goat of the Witches sabbat:
It is the goat of lust attacking the Heavens with its horns. It is the sign execrated by the initiates of a
superior rank, even at the sabbat,
Source : http:en.wikipedia.orgwikiPentagram
The Church of Satan decided to choose and to create the inverted Pentagram because it s easy to place the goat-head within the figure.
In addition, according to writers such as Levi, this was the infernal orientation, and thus seemed the appropriate orientation for Satanism. Finally, the
point-down figure represents spirit subsumed by the four physical elements, rejecting the notion that the physical world is dirty and taboo and that the spirit should rise
about it. Lévis version of magic became a great success, especially after his death. That Spiritualism was popular on both sides of the Atlantic from the 1850s
contributed to this success. His magical teachings were free from obvious

fanaticisms, even if they remained rather murky; he had nothing to sell, and did not pretend to be the initiate of some ancient or fictitious secret society. He incorporated
the Tarot cards into his magical system, and as a result the Tarot has been an important part of the paraphernalia of Western magicians.
He had a deep impact on the magic of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn and later on the ex-Golden Dawn member Aleister Crowley. He was also the
first to declare that a Pentagram or five-pointed star with one point down and two points up represents evil, while a Pentagram with one point up and two points down
represents good. It was largely through the occultists inspired by him that Lévi is remembered as one of the key founders of the 20th century revival of magic .And
this is original design by Levi.
