[[Anton LaVey]] in ''[[The Satanic Bible]]'' has Leviathan representing the element of [[water (element)|water]] and the direction of west, listing it as one of the Four Crown Princes of [[Hell]]. This association was inspired by the [[hierarchy of Hell|demonic hierarchy]] from ''[[Book of Abramelin|The Book of the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage]]''. The [[LaVeyan Satanism|Church of Satan]] uses the Hebrew letters at each of the points of the [[Sigil]] of [[Baphomet]] to represent Leviathan. Starting from the lowest point of the pentagram, and reading counter-clockwise, the word reads "לויתן": (Nun, Tav, Yod, Vav, Lamed) Hebrew for "Leviathan".
