The name "Astaroth" as a male demon is first known from ''[[The Book of Abramelin]]'', purportedly written in Hebrew in 1458, and recurred in most [[occult]] [[grimoire]]s of the following centuries. Astaroth also features as an archdemon associated with the qliphoth (adverse forces) according to later [[Kabbalah|Kabbalistic]] texts, as he rules over the qlipha of [[Jupiter]], known as Gha'agsheblah. | The name "Astaroth" as a male demon is first known from ''[[The Book of Abramelin]]'', purportedly written in Hebrew in 1458, and recurred in most [[occult]] [[grimoire]]s of the following centuries.
