- Abraxas Deities · deities
Abraxas (Abrasax) is the name at the centre of the Basilidian system reported by Irenaeus (Against Heresies 1.24): the Greek letters of Abrasax sum to 365, the number of the days of the year and of the heavens in that system, so that the name is the name of the whole year and of the power that governs it. From the second century the name crowds the Graeco-Egyptian magical gems, engraved on amulets beside a cock-headed, serpent-legged figure with a whip and shield and invoked with IAO and Sabaoth as a protective name of power. Carl Jung took Abraxas up in the Seven Sermons to the Dead (1916) as the god beyond good and evil, and through Hermann Hesse's Demian the figure entered modern occultism.

- Eshu Deities · deities
Eshu-Elegbara is the orisha of the crossroads, the messenger of Olodumare and the keeper of ashe, the power that makes a thing happen. He carries the ebo (offering) that a divination prescribes, and every rite salutes him first because he holds the opening; the Ifa odu and the oriki carry him. He is not Satan: the equation is a missionary and colonial misreading, and the Fon/Dahomey Legba is a cognate figure, not the same deity. In the Americas he becomes Elegua in Cuba (the child at the door, St Anthony of Padua) and Exu in Brazil, and the diaspora forms have their own emphases.

- Matangi Deities · deities
Matangi is the ninth Mahavidya, the tantric Saraswati: goddess of speech, music and learning who is also the outcaste (matanga, chandala) and accepts ucchishta, leftover food.

Because her worship deliberately crosses the purity rules, she is the Mahavidya most often sanitised by modern writers and most carefully hedged by the tradition.
