Serpent cult

The Serpent Cult is a religious or mythological tradition that venerates the serpent as a symbol of power, transformation, and knowledge. Historically, many cultures viewed serpents as sacred, representing fertility, rebirth, or the divine. Some groups or secret societies have adopted serpent imagery to signify wisdom, protection, or spiritual awakening. While the term "Serpent Cult" can refer to specific ancient or modern religious movements, it generally denotes a reverence for serpents’ symbolic significance rather than literal worship of the animal. The concept emphasizes the serpent’s role as a profound emblem of mystical insight across different traditions.
