Energy drinks have always scared me. I don’t know why, but I’ve always been nervous about trying any of them. Seriously, when did a breakfast of brownies and Mountain Dew stop being enough of a pick me up? Man, I miss my teenaged metabolism. So anyway, I’m a big energy drink ‘fraidy cat and I admit to it. However, if Suroh is to be believed, perhaps there is another more complex reason to explain my aversion to Monster Energy Drink.
Monster Energy Drink Logo Decoded

An Unholy Sacrament?Monster Energy drinks logo has deep roots in esoteric symbolism, if we examine the logo in total we will see how even a seemingly simple logo can hold vast amounts of symbolism. I would like to thank Freeman of FreemanTv.com for pointing this out to the public. After looking at the claws and noticing the hidden 666 symbolism I began to see much more hidden right before my eyes. I then decided to do a complete breakdown of the logo.
666 and the Claw Marks
When I first heard about the symbolism in the Monster logo, it was about a hidden 666 encoded within the 3 claw marks. At first this seems extremely far fetched and arbitrary, but when we examine the 3 claw marks which are glowing, they clearly resemble the 6th letter of the Hebrew Alphabet Vau (ו).
Vav
In the beginning of Creation, when Infinite Light filled all reality, G d contracted His Light to create hollow empty space, as it were, the “place” necessary for the existence of finite worlds. Into this vacuum God drew down, figuratively speaking, a single line of light, from the Infinite Source. This ray of light is the secret of the letter vav. Though the line is singular in appearance, it nonetheless possesses two dimensions, an external as well as an internal force, both of which take part in the process of Creation and the continuous interaction between the creative power and created reality.
The external force of the line is the power to differentiate and separate the various aspects of reality, thereby establishing hierarchical order, up and down, within Creation. The internal force of the line is the power to reveal the inherent interinclusion of the various aspects of reality, one in the other, thereby joining them together as an organic whole. This property of the letter vav, in its usage in Hebrew, is referred to as vav hachibur, the vav of connection”–”and.” The first vav of the Torah–”In the beginning G d created the heavens and [vav] the earth” serves to join spirit and matter, heaven and the earth, throughout Creation. This vav, which appears at the beginning of the sixth word of the Torah, is the twenty second letter of the verse. It alludes to the power to connect and interrelate all twenty-two individual powers of Creation, the twenty-two letters of the Hebrew alphabet from alef to tav. (The word et [which appears before the two instances of the word “the” in this verse, and is spelled alef-tav] is generally taken to represent all the letters of the alphabet, from alef to tav. Our Sages interpret the word in this verse to include all the various objects of Creation present within heaven and earth.)
To those who have no knowledge whatsoever of the Hebrew alphabet this encoded symbol would go unnoticed forever. It is also interesting to note that the letter Vau in Arabic looks like a 6 or 9 (و). In most ancient languages each letter had a numerical value and a symbolic value. In the case of the letter Vav its value is 6 and its symbol is Pin or Hook. As there are three claw marks or Vavs this can then be interpreted as “666″ numerically using classic Hebrew Gematria.
Here we have a simple rendering of the logo, but instead of the claw marks I remade the logo with the letter Vau. The similarities are extremely visible. The number 666 is associated with the Sun, as it is the Sum of all the numbers in its Magical Square. The glowing effect supports the Sun symbolism. Next I looked deeper into the meaning of the Vau. In Kabbalah each letter of the Hebrew alphabet is also associated with one of the 22 Trump cards of the Tarot. In the case of Vau it is associated with the Hierophant card.
V – The Hierophant
Path of Vau 16 in the Tree of Life Sun in Sagittarius as a symbol for the teacher of inner values, Jupiter in Pisces as the vision of eternity
Zodiac: Taurus
Tree of life: From Chokmah to Chesed
Element: Earth
Number: 5 as quintessence, the power that exceeds the four elements
The Hierophant is a symbol for a world of belief and confession, may it be a church, a sect or an occult society. He’s the pope, the druid or the High Priest in a system of creeds and dogmas. He represents the religious and intellectual tradition of a person, and may be the one the person is born to it or possibly the one who has chosen it by himself.
In the positive aspect, the Hierophant represents the search for knowledge and illumination, the desire to study creed and dogma instead of simply accepting them, to research and achieve further development. It also stands for the deep fulfillment someone can find when really trusting their own beliefs.
In a negative view, the Hierophant can stand for bigotry, the blind faith in dogma, intolerance towards everything different from the own confession. It can also mean gullibility, running to any kind of new belief just because the traditional one is suddenly considered boring or unsatisfying.
Stylized Letters
The first thing I noticed was the odd style of two letters in the word below the claw marks. The letter O in Monster has a t or cross over a U or half circle, this is to symbolize Saturn as it is an interpretation of the two shapes of the Saturn Symbol ♄. The symbol of Saturn itself can be broken down into two elements: a half circle and a cross. The half-circle meaning Soul (Spirit) and the cross meaning matter. As we move through the word the next letter that stands out is the letter “S”. This letter symbol is more apparent it looks very much like a “5″. On the Tree of Life the 5th Sephira is Strength (Geburah) which is associated with Mars and its attributes. In summary the word Monster contains hidden symbols corresponding to the planets Mars, and Saturn.
Planetary Energy
Here we have chart of the planets the associated correspondences (Sphere of Influence, Color Associations, and God Name).
Conclusion
By taking the above information into account we can now apply the symbolism to the Tree of Life and see the deeper meaning the symbol and the effect it is designed to create. The logo of Monster Energy drinks also has 3 hidden planetary glyphs aligning it with the Sun, Saturn and Mars which interestingly enough are all closely inter-connected on the Tree of Life. As we can see it forms a Triangle on the Left hand side of the tree which is the Negative or Baneful Side of the tree. Strength (Mars), 666 (Sun), Saturn (Material Power) and the Search for inner knowledge and enlightenment. All by simple changes in the letters and shapes which can and do go unnoticed by the everyday customer.
How good can this drink be for you after all?
Can the energies focused by the symbol on the cans influence the drinkers to be more negative and violent?
You decide!

By the way.. Chillin-Fresh your retarded.. The haters hate because it has nothing to do with any of the so called Hebrew or occult symbols. Did you know the artist personally. If not stop babbling your incoherent garbage. Cause if ya don’t know now you still don’t.
Man all I see here is a modern day witch hunt. No disrespect to the author here because they even say you decide. But to the fanatics that voiced their opinions as this is absolute truth and the religious nuts your crazy.. but you see what you want to see. Some see occult symbols. Some see Hebrew symbols. You want to know what I see?
So I took a closer look at the logo.. Guess what? It is Greek.. Two letters from the Greek alphabet make the logo. The first two claw marks are connected at the top creating the capital Greek “Pi” and the third claw mark stands alone as the capital Greek “Iota” there fore it’s “Pi Iota” and if we add the O it is “Pi Iota Phi” which is a chapter at Tampa bay Fl.
Maybe the artist responsible for the design was a member or descendent of a member. Pi Iota is From the initials of the Greek phrase meaning “friendship is essential to the soul,”
So in conclusion I have offered just as much evidence contrary to the evil Hebrew theory. More evidence that actually represents the design of the logo. If they were Hebrew Vav then they would not connect as they do in the first two claw marks. So what dose this mean? It means you can all go back to drinking monster if you so choose. It’s not an evil corporation looking to replace your soul with green liquid that glows under ultraviolet light. It’s just a company that provides a unhealthy yet effective pick-me-up. Drink responsibly and you should be fine. Do not I repeat do not mix it with alcohol. Because an upper and a downer are not good bed buddies and your heart will hate you in the morning.
Oh snap!! guess what else I found.. Monster energy sponsored the Sigma “Pi – Iota” Chapter at UC Berkeley. Score one for me!!!
I don’t doubt the drink is unhealthy. Anything used habitually could be unhealthy. If you eat too much meat you’ll get gout. If you drink too much water you can over hydrate and die. If you exercise too much without giving your body a rest it could break down. If you gave a very enthusiastic sermon everyday you could lose your voice… Of course habitual monster drinkers could harm themselves I don’t deny that.. What I do think is ludicrous is labeling a company in in league with satan because some yahoo thought he saw three vavs.
Some of you obviously read the bible right. Well if we took Johns literal interpretation of the number of the beast (six hundred three score and six) it would be 600606. But we figured he ment 666 why? Because it’s only logical to add them together. Now the number six hundred and sixty six in Hebrew is not 3 vavs. 666 in Hebrew consists of 5 symbols. 5! Not 3 Vav marks. So back to John and the number he saw. If we add them together as it is expected then let’s take monsters label. One Vav equals 6. Three vavs placed together would then equal…. 18! Ohhhh that’s an evil number. Now let’s say since we are dealing in numbers and when numbers are placed together without addition symbol we multiply. 6•6•6= 216.. Oh my that’s an evil number too.. It has a 6 in it. So if monster did indeed try to write the number of the beast they did a bad job.
Also if you read Hebrew the monster symbols wouldn’t say anything. They look nothing like the Hebrew Vav. The Hebrew Vav has a upwards pointed tail connected to a strait downwards line. The claw marks start with a downwards angel.
But you are right it’s a bad unhealthy drink when used in excess. I personally drink them as well as other energy drinks when needed. Maybe once a week or less. Now if you think they are bad why attack monster? Why not attack rockstar, amp, venom, red bull. I mean Venom has a serpents head on it with fangs.. And one of their first flavors was sour apple.. Oh that sounds like another bible story involving evil. Let it go people..
By all means boycott them for being unhealthy. Boycott all of them. But don’t insinuate it’s the mark of the beast when you have no idea what you’re talking about.
Now for my real rant.. Religious fanatics listen up!! If we are to take the bible literally like it seems most of you do then we would have to see and know the mark of the beast as John saw it. John didn’t speak or see the numbers in the English text that we use today he saw them in Greek.. He wouldn’t even know how to describe a 6 symbol as a number. To him 6 would just be some obscure design. If you are to take Johns vision literally then you should be looking for χξς as the mark of the beast, because this is how John would have seen six hundred three score and six…..
Holy crap!!! Check this mind blow out. So you all think this symbol represents three 6’s side by side right? Let’s apply the universal language of math to it. So when numbers are placed side by side with no +,-,x or / then we multiply them right. Xy equals x•y so then we multiply the monster symbol.. 6•6•6=216!!! Do you know what 216 is it’s revelations in a nut shell 21/3 is 7.. 777 is the number of Gods perfection. And 6 is the number of man and woman. God created the earth in 7 days and on the 6th day he created man…!! Mind officially Blown!!
Hello everyone, it’s my first pay a visit at this web site, and
post is really fruitful in favor of me, keep up posting these
types of articles or reviews.
Here is my blog post: web page (Heather)
So this is bogus because the Hebrew letters for 6 are not waws…not even close so know ypur stuff before ypu act like your a expert on the internet…dont spread ignorance.
The swastica was a symbol of peace before hitler used it. Does that mean the Nazis were good? Look closely at the symbols, they are obviously different.
WOW,its kinda funny reading all this. The time and effort to read something into nothing. Look around you, its everywhere. Who do you think is in charge of this world at the moment? Instead of putting all of this time looking into the negative try focusing on the positive. I’m not saying do not be aware of it ,just try not to fall prey to it. If you follow it to closely it might just reach out and grab you.
This is the dumbest thing I have ever read in my whole entire life.
Don’t worry I’ve know what’s going on with the monster can! Its not the only symbol either! If you get time research the taco bell symbol! I can’t believe how many blind people there are in this world!! I’ll pray for you people! You can’t buy into sin and believe you will be okay when Jesus comes back!
The ‘o’ in “Monster” is a Phi, this symbol is used in Mathematics to symbolize the golden ratio. The golden ratio is found in countless areas of physical creation. From the arrangement of the planets to the length of a man’s arm with respect to his body.
The number of the beast (Monster), is the number of a Man. Man is the Microcosmos to the Macrocosmos. In Kabbalah, the nature of man is fallen.
To me, the idea that the marketing of this product has been purposely arranged in order to stimulate the subconscious toward bestiality is absolutely plausible.
This sort of thing is done in marketing all the time. The rulers of this world are the rulers because they know how to manipulate nature for there own benefit. It is 100% scientific.
Edward Bernays revolutionized marketing by exploiting the psychological research of Sigmund Freud. Although these things are subtle, they are like a pebble tossed into a lake. The effect extends far beyond the point of impact.
The Kabbalah in this article is rather shaky in my opinion, but as I said, the theory is plausible and worth considering.
The greatest trick Satan ever played was getting mankind to think he wasn’t real. There is logic in the comparison of the Monster Energy Drink logo and the Hebrew symbols which indicate the sign of the beast.
Wow! This past Friday when I met with a gentleman after a Christian focused business networking meeting, he shared with me the suggested meaning behind the Monster logo after I shared with him the line of healthy energy drinks I promote as an affiliate. My husband & I have been Christ followers for over 30+ years.

OK 👏👋👌✌bye
Do not be deceived. In the end there will just be two choices. And like those who will be faced with the Mark of the Beast system, the stakes, will be just as high: eternal destiny.
People will just not take God or the state of their souls, seriously. And that is the danger today. The more of these types of anti-God seeds that can be planted the more people who will no longer see God as salvation and more as just an “idea” that needs to be rejected.
The Bible tells us that Satan is the father of lies. He knows that he is on borrowed time and that he and his false Messiah will both be destroyed by Jesus at His Second Coming. The Devil’s endgame is to destroy humanity, not liberate it. The Mark will be one of his greatest deceptions because it will lead to guaranteed damnation for those who choose to take it. And in the interim, promotion of it can help set the stage for individuals to reject the Gospel of Jesus which leads to eternal life.
It is truly sad how many people read this then only try to half comically push it off and disclaim it. The evidence right in front of you but it is just too much for you to handle that a product you like is bad and that now you realise that knowing this if you buy one again you are actively supporting the hidden meanings in the logo. So instead of stopping buying them you joke around, play it off like these people dont know what they are talking about. I honestly feel sad and sorry for where you will end up.
I have been knowing this all for some time,but the world is getting dumbed down with all this “crap” people are consuming. Like most of the dcomments I have seen on here it is apparent people just don’t care about their health,,or about what’s really inside or outside the can, and its obvious most don’t cae to know the truth. We are suppose to use our brains, and make smart conscious decisions,,but most just follow the masses and that’s when you find yourself In a big mess that’s hard to get out of. People open your eyes and minds think for yourself and care about what your putting in your mind and body,because no one else other than God will love you more than you love yourself, much love to all and God bless us all!
Someone has way too much time on their hands… Who thinks of this crap? Go back to subliminal messages when you play songs backwards LOL
Lol bullshit.
This is BEYOND stupid.
I didn’t bother reading most of this – the link made me roll my eyes. The data above is rather lengthy (really?) you have time for this? the monster logo resembles a “M” for M onster. It’s like a claw made the M. I’m not a fan (never tried it) but I see no resemblance to the logo being like the Hebrew strokes. If anything the hebrew strokes slightly resemble the letter M.
This is one of the stupidest things I think I’ve ever seen on the net.
Wow… What a bunch of whack jobs
Ever since my first gulp of Monster I have been able to levitate, move objects with my mind, control the weather, shape-shift, ride brooms, hypnotize rottweilers, walk through walls, do a double backside kickflip on my skateboard, and inhabit sinful young women. It’s great fun! Too bad I’m doomed to an eternity of torment for drinking caffeine-laced fructose. Oh well, cie la vie.
ok… so what if it’s demonic then? people are getting what they want from what they buy, and 1 BIG rule in purchasing is “TO GET WHAT YOU NEED” and thats a big check to that… its even worth than buying a cigarette.. and by the way NICE POST to GoldenEnergy on August 4, 2011 8:29pm you hit it GOOD DUDE… (i apologize for those people whom i offended, bcoz of this post)
…im not sure if this has bean said yet as i only got half way through reading comments but to all you haters who have no life and are talking “wack” about those of us who have no life you read those comments get a life!!!!…. seriosly haters gonna hate and the ending was not a “stop drinking monster or you will go to hell” he said “you decide”…. more over if all you read was about the m and have no education in hebrew or pegan symbolism then get educated because your just haten… so since im not silly ima wrap it up…planetary involement in this i dont find a coincident i find this verry deliberate and intriguing so i will add this… if you dont know now you know!!! so shut it up turn it oof and got bed…
I do not want to jump to any conclusions, I do believe demonic symbolism is everywhere, but I just want to ask, I used to drink these all the time, 4-6 cans a day, but did anyone else feel the urge that they had to keep their cans?…. I could not and would not throw them away… I had boxes/bags filled with them, they were all over my room… And I don’t really know why.. Take it for what you will but I do believe there is some kind of energy definitely being asserted through the symbolism on the drinks….
So ill ask my boss today when I see him drinking a monster(he is Arab btw)well guess what he told me in his funny Arab accent its bulls man I don’t see it and goes on to chugging his drink… So guess what people see what they want to see and others choose to try to make everything fit into there perfect little world of ignorance and most of the time fail like you
I think you guys who believe in this have taken it too far. As a youth pastor in LA I think it to be nonsence, too much of anything is bad for your health.
This might make sense if the unholy number was 666. too bad it’s 616
http://www.webmd.com/mental-health/alcohol-abuse/news/20111121/energy-drinks-send-thousands-to-the-er-each-year
Well.. event though if you don´t believe that the Monster has something to do with christianiti, it is still really addictive and causes millions injuries a year… good thing to read…
I really used to like monster.. Racing team, products etc. But when i saw this article it raelly made me think and opened my eyes.. Really i cant´t belive that there are so many coincidences… The mark is only one thing but the text on the back “unleash the beast” made me really choose…
Da mark of da beast ryt?!…… Da article is doper than white coke, very informative or illuminating in a vast way. Bt then myb da illuminatis light has strongly blinded da ones in total denial of da article.hmm… Bt ow wel tanx very much 4 da info 2 da author, its a great read.
Or myb jst myb….. Da logo designer is da Annunaki decendent…………… #Jst sayin
I just heard of this today. As a passionate Christian, I am more than likely going to stop drinking these. People don’t realize evil is lurking around every corner. And these are addictive drinks. I am sure the company didn’t intentionally make the logo to represent 666 or satanic. BUT, that’s how satan works. Oh- what a coincidence…also it represents 3 nails. What nails? You ask. The nails each one of us should have driven through us for being human. BUT THANK YOU JESUS FOR TAKING MY PUNISHMENT. I hope and pray for those of you who don’t know Jesus yet. BTW- do any of your computers have spellcheck?
i for one do feel indeed very sorry for all the people who commented saying that Monster is just a drink and just a label and the symbol is just a symbol, WAKE UP! We are living in the end times everything nowadays is ridiculously evil,, do ur research please and don’t be so quick to judge this information that this person has put in the article, i don’t think what he/she is saying is very accurate but for flip sakes! He/she is onto something. You people will be calling down upon the mountains to fall on you when u realize what u have done by shunning gods word when he comes. It says so in the bible so it shall be! This world is so sinful, i know i am a sinner too. Hypocrits everywhere xx I’m out email me if you’d like to find out more about things exposed etc savannahgrimett20@gmail.com
The truth is Monster knew exactly what they was doing by encoding the 666 mark. They also knew that many would be ignorant to the fact of its true meaning. Sure believe what you all like but not only is this information valid but true. It only take you to stop being ignorant to that point, and pay attention to what happening around you because this isn’t the only thing that hides secrets behind it. ~ Deuces
Please do something actually productive and make a difference in this world. No body gives a second shit about this apart from frantic Christians and maybe the odd Satan hailing person.
are ya’ll serious?? do you just sit there and try to point out something wrong with monster drinks. they are just drinks nothing else! its not satan. the front of the can is just an m or claws coming out. to unleash the beast. and the beast is not the devil. its just thier quote. please stop trying to turn everything into a religous matter.
If u base whether ur goin to heaven or hell due to the whether or not u drink or dont drink a monster ur probably not a christian.. goin to heaven is based on u accepting christ as ur savior. Not if u drink or dont drink from a can that has 3 green stripes
The letter VAV is equal to the number six and is the symbol of connection, portraying a bridge in structure.
As the number six, the VAV denotes physical completion. The world was created in six days, as explained in Genesis: The first word of Genesis, Bereishit, (‘in the beginning’), can be broken up to form ‘He created six’ (Barah Shit).
The letter VAV, as symbolic of the number six, signifies physical space. Every self-contained object has six dimensions: right, left, front, back, up and down. It is said that the six days of creation also relate to these six dimensions.
The word VAV means ‘hook’, alluding to the connection between the inherent symmetrical and asymmetrical states in nature which maintain equilibrium. On a deeper level, the VAV is said to be the link between every Jew in their will to serve God, found in the core of every Jewish person’s heart.
The letter VAV, the plainest in appearance of all the letters of the Hebrew alphabet, signifies the basic common link between all Jewish people: a love of and will to serve God.
Anything can have meaning if someone “wants” it to have meaning. Until someone puts there faith and devotion into something, then that something will always remain nothing.
we must not follow worldly things or beliefs we, as Christians must study and be aware of what is with and against the will of the Lord our GOD, because wisdom from him is the only way where we become aware of the works of evil.
its all a bit crazy to me….but interesting , you never know….as of right now undecided. i work long hours sometimes and resort to energy drinks knowing thier not good for you but do it anyway. very addicting stuff if you ask me…i myself will stir away from energy drinks , never needed them before why now , they’ve consumed alot of people all ready (swallowed) yah im cool now. this is all i needed to let me know …thanks guys… ive always been able too break bad habits and this is going to be one…”god bless”
lets try to focus on whats most important (Jesus) the one who died for us the one who did it because he loved us….if monster intended on making a sacreligious symbol then lets not judge them…and let the good judge(God The Father)judge them.why are people wasting time looking into something so rediculous when precious souls are going to hell everyday,so why not tell them the good news of jesus and lead them to cross rather than made than push them away.people throw around the verse john 3:16 ( For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him should not perish but everlasting life)that small little phase the world doesnt look at it and say WOW that says it all…instead we are looking up logos of a marketing tool? studying them to the point of insanity…when GOD the true being,the driving force of everything,the meaning to all life in the whole universe, sent his son..HIS ONLY SON!to die for wickedness,when he could have wipe the human race from existence without having to mouth the phrase,sent his son to die for sin we cant help to commit,we can only try to strive to be without sin,but we know its impossible only jesus could be the one to come and face sin as we do and turn away from it and not submit to the flesh,he carried the burden of all of the existence of sin throughout time.he could of at any moment given up and we would have been doomed to a place of eternal fire.Jesus should be your main focus in life.not a symbol of and M made by what seems to be claw marks.
yeah its good to see this . but i must say that people look alil too deeply into things … ” not refering to this monster M . . anything can be evil if you look deeply enough …. but anything can also be holy … . you find what you are looking for , know what i mean ?
I never realized that the monster symbol had such a deep meaning and I enjoyed reading this article and learning about its meaning.
The M also very closely resembles 3 7’s that is a holy number and God made the sun and planets. Maybe it’s a holy drink. Or just an energy drink.
Guys come on isn’t it obvious? The “m” IS 666 and there is demonic markings all over the cans. Now i have been researching the meaning of the logo and its origins and also what the drink its self is made up of and after many years of research tons of money and lots of monster drinking my conclusion is this… THE DRINK IS SATANS PISS!!!!!! that is what my studies have found
