For the symbolism, That's a St.Peters Cross. Back then, Peter was one of Jesus's apostles who was sent to jail and persecuted by the Roman authorities for spreading the gospel. When the Romans sentenced him to death, Peter wanted to be crucified upside down because he did not want to be crucified the way Jesus was. What makes the upside down cross significant is that it is also the most painful death. Now there had been those college idiots who argued that his death is not painful, but what about all that blood flow pressuring the brain towards heavy bleeding to such an extent that it further pressures the brain to the point of being crushed. Now that's painful. Now lets take that a couple of thousands of years later where we have the founding fathers of the occult like Allister Crowley. A lot of these occultist in surprise did not actually worship Satan like what Christians claimed them to be doing. The occultists were actually making their own religion comprised of symbols they plagiarize from other religions. The pentagram was actually a Wiccan star from the Wicca religion, and the image of the man with the goat head in criss-cross apple sauce was actually an occult made-up god meant to maintain the moon and sun. What led to the misinterpretation of the St. Peters Cross was the plagiarism by the occultist plus the demonization of these occultist by Christians. Now the image of the common devil was actually derived by the demonization of Pan by Christians. Pan was the Greek mythological god of sex, drugs, and rock n' roll. Christians back then became so horrified by the appearance of Pan that they decided to demonize him and make him the image of the devil. This is also where the word, "panic," comes from. I am not making this comment based on artistic criticism, but only on the informal, constructive criticism for your benefit to do the research next time. Otherwise, awesome piece of art.ย

Glad you like my drawing.
But you are not the first person who tell me this kind of things.
I am fully aware of those historical meanings etc.
But you know, through the history of symbols sometimes same symbols have showed up in different cultures and represented different meanings.

More or less, forgive me father for i haven't sinned.
Nice picture! Though if I may ask, when did you decide to follow the path of Satanism? (I'm an eclectic pagan myself, and it was quite recently for me when I found my path)

OH MY GEEZ THAT IS AWESOME! The Pope (forgive me if I am wrong) looks like the devil instead of a saint O_O That is an amazing piece
Sort of reminds me of what I'm learning in world history. The Pope in the 1500's (sorry forgot the name) was becoming corrupted and have "worldly" possessions and stuff Nice coincidence this was XD
