Careful with some of his explanations, I've seen him explain things on this other books claiming something doesnt mean what it means but it 100% does. He acts like only his def of a symbol is valid( he was saying fingers held in horns doesnt mean devil, but it does it also means Texas Long Horns and also means Rock n Roll, it also means I love you in sign language)
This dude has absolutely no clue about occultism if he really thinks that the mano cornuta hand sign is not satanic/luciferian.
“GESTURES ARE ALSO USED IN MAGIC. Each of the fingers relates to a
specific planet as well as an ancient deity. Since pointing is a magical act and
is a part of many spells, the finger can be chosen by its symbolism.
“The thumb relates to Venus and to the planet Earth. Jupiter (both the planet and
the god) rules the forefinger. The middle finger is ruled by the god and planet
Saturn, the fourth finger the Sun and Apollo, and the little finger by the planet
Mercury as well as the god after which it is named....
“Gestures are magical tools as potent as any other, ones we can always take with
us, to be used when needed.”
[Italics in the original; Caps and boldface added]
The “mano figo,” also called “fica gesture” (mentioned above), “has been
regarded as a defense against the evil eye, a crude insult, and a sexual symbol as
well.”
The “mano cornuta” was also mentioned. This is known by a number of other
names such as: the devil’s triad, il cornuto, the horn, homed devil, twin-homed
salute, homed hand, devil salute, and devil horn salute.
The Devil’s triad is a recognition sign among Satanists and witches. Remember
that Satan (or Pan) is called “The Homed God,” so the hand signal is formed so
as to resemble horns. Many people in heavy metal music or rock music also use
this sign. Even some within the so-called “Christian” rock world (there is no
such thing as Christian rock!) use this signal. Some of the rock groups who use
this are: Gene Simmons (from KISS), Heart, Cheap Trick, Utopia, and so-called
“Christian” rock group Petra. The Beatles were the first rock band to use the
devil’s triad on a record album cove
Another rocker who frequently uses the devil salute is Ronnie James Padovana
who calls himself “Dio” (which is Latin for “God”). He admits that he knows
about the occult and he at one time “led thousands in ‘altar calls’ to Satan at
concerts....”
MANO CORNUTO, THE DEVIL SIGN
When people flash out their horned hand signs, then does it signify that they all are heavy-metal rockmusic (the devil’s music) fans or is there something more sinister behind all such gestures? Yes, there is!
It is being flashed everywhere – on TV, in newspapers and magazines, at sporting events, and even at presidential inaugurations. I’m referring, of course, to the sign of El Diablo, the Horned Devil, also known as the sign of Mano Cornuto and as Diabolicus. It began in the modern era with the followers of satanic cults, the members of the official Church of Satan (Anton LaVey), heavy metal rock music bands and fans flourishing the sign of two separated fingers upward sign. The rock bands made it popular and trendy, and now it seems that almost everyone is doing it. But do they really understand, what they are gesturing here?
Mano Cornuto, the Sign of the Horns (devil horns, rock horns, metal horns) is a gesture often used when listening to heavy metal or rock music. In Wicca, the sign of the horns is used to invoke or represent the Horned God (Herne, CERN or Cernunnos; Herne; Green Man etc.) In Hinduism, the hand gesture is known as the Apana Mudra’. In Indian classical dance forms, the hand gesture symbolises the Lion (1 Peter 5:8; it is the Devil, the Roaring Lion). In Buddhism, it is seen as an apotropaic gesture very commonly used by Gautama Buddha as ‘Karana Mudra’. In reality those hand gestures won’t repel evil, but instead draw it in.
MANO CORNUTO was first seen on the album artwork of Witchcraft Coven’s ‘Destroys Minds and Reaps Souls’ (1969). Sometimes called a VISEL, this etymologically suspect term may be derived from the equally suspect name for THE WISDOM GODDESS or FEMININE ASPECT OF THE BABYLONIAN TRINITY.
Corna / Mano Cornuto: A vulgar gesture in Mediterranean countries, often denoting infidelity, the sign of Satan, the horned God, the ‘devil sign’, mano cornuto or horned
hand. Inspired by Anton LaVey and used by satanists, it’s use in the heavy metal music subculture has evolved into a general youthful sign for ‘rock on’ or ‘party down’.
‘I love you (Satan)’ sign: This American Sign Language allophone is derived from a combination of three handshapes: I, L, and Y. The deaf's gesture, or signing, for ‘I love you’. Just add the word ‘Satan’ or ‘Devil’ to the end of this gesture and you will get the true meaning of this sign.
KARANA MUDRA (APANA MUDRA); Mano Cornuto or the Sign of Satan/Devil.
