Leviathan Cross Lapel Pin
This brand new Leviathan Cross lapel pin, available exclusively here at The Black Broom, measures approximately 1 inch in diameter. It's white metal with black enamel and comes with one metal squeeze open/close removable pin clutch.
This old alchemical symbol for Brimstone is also called the Leviathan Cross. Anton LaVey adopted it as an emblem of Satanism in the 60s. Brimstone is the lemon colored stone found at the brim of volcanoes and hot springs. This chemical is now more usually known by its Latin name 'sulfur', and the term 'brimstone' tends to be reserved for references in ancient texts such as the Bible. Alchemically, sulfur has the qualities of masculine, hot and dry. Combined with mercury (feminine, cool and moist), the pair were considered parents of all metals. Alchemical drawings often portray sulfur as the Sun. The symbol of sulfur is often used as an identifying symbol by Satanists, due to its historical association with the Devil.
