Origins of the Ouroboros

The Occult Symbolism of Yasin

The occult tradition of the West is filled with ritual references and influences based on the Old and New Testaments. The Quran has had similar influences on the ritual practices of many mystics and magicians. The reason for this is that the Quran lends itself well to mystical and occult interpretation.

Many of them believe that these two letters represent Ya, “a method of announcement”, and Syin “a short version of Insan or Man”. Orthodox Islamic scholars have argued that Syin stands not for all men, but for the King of Men or the Prophet Mohammed himself.
