In order to understand the Atbash Cipher theory, as it relates to the Baphomet mythos, it is first important to examine the origins of the code.

The Atbash Cipher is a simple substition cipher where the first letter of the alphabet is exchanged with the last letter of the alphabet and so on.
Even with this encryption the challenge is still to pass on the decoding mechanism or key to the intended recipient of messages in a way in which it cannot be intercepted, as if the key falls into someone else's hands, then you may as well be writing your code in plain English.

In the case of the Atbash cipher, the first letter of the alphabet is substituted for the last, the second for the second last and so on." I.e., for us in English the letter A becomes "Z", the letter "B" becomes "Y", the letter C becomes X, and so on.
ATBASH gets it's name from the fact that in the cipher, A becomes tav(the last), B becomes shin (one before last), and so on, hence ATBSh - ATBASH.

When the founders of the Golden Dawn were deciphering a series of texts (using a Masonic code) to set up their own rituals and structures, they were instructed to transpose L and T for Justice and Strength.
I have not found a hint in Crowley's writings that he was aware of this transposition, but if he did it was some form of 'cop out', and explains the confusion experienced by Tarot students to this day, particularly when contrasted with the total lack of confusion with the L-T transposition.
