Step beyond religious dogma and explore the complex, ancient figure of the Devil. From his roots in pre-Christian gods and trickster spirits to his demonization in medieval Christianity and his role in the witch trials, this course unveils the true nature of the folkloric Devil.

Discover how the Devil has been revered, feared, and misunderstood across time. Learn about the Wild Gods like Pan and Cernunnos, the trickster spirits of old, and how the Devil became the initiatory figure in witchcraft and folk magic. Dive into the dark allure of the Witch’s Sabbat, uncover the truth behind pacts at the crossroads, and see how the Devil continues to be a force of transgression, power, and forbidden knowledge in contemporary occultism.

Whether you are a practitioner of witchcraft, an occult scholar, or simply curious about the history of the Devil beyond religious narratives, this course will challenge your perceptions and deepen your understanding of the Horned One.
