Satanists discuss modern Satanism, its history, left-leaning political activism, and how Satanism relates to current events and pop culture. It's a show for the Satan-curious, or those already involved in Satanic groups.
Episode 30 - Devil Decoder: Satanic Symbols Explained
From the pentagram (or is it a pentacle?) to the Sigil of Lucifer, a Satanic symbol is easy to spot – but less easy to source and explain. In this episode, we discuss the origins and meanings of all those cool Satanic symbols you see stitched on the patches of the jackets of every Black Mass attendee. Simone, Daniel, Tabitha, and Satanic artist Jason Lenox do a deep dive to help you keep your Satanic symbols straight. Plus, we share what we learned on the "Sunday Streets" of San Francisco, Simone is moved by Satanic gestures of sympathy, and we try to figure out which Rugrats character Baphomet looks like.
