Leonard (demon)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Leonard or "Master Leonard" is a demon or spirit in the
Dictionnaire Infernal, Grand-master of the nocturnal
orgies of demons. He is represented as a three-horned goat,
with black human face. He marked his initiates with one of
his horns. Infernal powders obtained from the worship of this
goat who is called Master Leonard range from metamorphasis
into monstrous animals or men, to flight as an incubi.
It may be possible that the Goat like figure, Leonard,
is related to the ritual described in Leviticus 16:8
concerning Azazel,
Leviticus 16:8 And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for the LORD, and the other lot for the scapegoat.
9 And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the LORD'S lot fell, and offer him for a sin offering.
10 But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before the LORD, to make an atonement with him, and to let him go for a scapegoat into the wilderness.
There is mention of a "Master Leonard" in the
Dictionary of Phrase and Fable (published 1898) in association with the
alleged deity of the Templars, the Baphomet or "Goat of
Mendes." Black banquets are thrown in Leonards honr where
aborted kids (baby goats not children) are eaten without salt
and boiled with reptiles to sully the sinless nature of the
clean meat.
Leonard has been know to take other forms and there is some
connection with him and the legend o the warewolf, he has
been known to appear as a hansom soldier, a favorite o many
demons, in this form he will seduce a young lady and take her
to the wilderness where he will lay with her and project cold
semen, any child resulting from this union will be still
born, an offering of sin, for sin again echoing loosely the
story of Aaron.
