Biography
Astaroth"Asta"Hebrew Origin :: Phoenician Idols
Astaroth (also Ashtaroth, Astarot and Asteroth), in demonology, is the Great Duke of Hell in the first hierarchy with Beelzebub and Lucifer; they are part of the evil trinity. They are a masculine figure most likely named after the Mesopotamian goddess Ishtar.
The Legend of AstarothThe ancient Sumerians, Babylonians, and Egyptians all regarded Astarte with the highest regards, though they did recognize her under different names. She was supposedly the goddess of fertility and war, and symbolizes a life of luxury. Many temples and statues were built in her honor and all areas that she guarded over supposedly thrived during her reign.
However, when the major religions came to power (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam), they tarnished Astarte's name and claimed that she was a deceiver. Over time, they changed her name to Astaroth and said that he was a Grand Duke of Hell that appeared in the form of Astarte (and others) when he was trying to deceive people.
Interestingly enough, there are some parts of Astarte that remain in Christianity according to those who still believe in the goddess. Some claim that 'The Virgin Mary' was fictitious, and was created to take the place of Astarte in literature. There is no evidence that this is true, though it does pose an interesting question.
Though there are no definitive answers to the question of which is real - Astarte or Astaroth, many people who try to summon Astaroth report failure unless they call upon 'him' by the name Astarte. Those who do this claim to see a female goddess instead of a demon. Others, however, claim that they have seen the demon Astaroth and that he exists as the deceiver that religious texts describe.
