For me it's the Cult of Dionysus.

In the play The Bacchae by Euripides the god Dionysus appears on stage, alongside his frenzied followers. Those who worshipped Dionysus were said to dress up in furs, go out into the countryside, and then get into a frenzy. In this wild state worshippers were out of their minds. In the play the female followers of the god tear a man apart with their bare hands.

main theory is it represents some kind of interaction between Taurus and Scorpio. but its an oddly prevalent theme in other cultures also (picrel, a tibetan anti-demon charm that depicts a gyalpo demon having its nuts chewed on by scorpions)

What is this obscure nerd shit? Didn't Christianity outshine this pagan nonsense?

Imagine picking something that's not the cult of Mithras.
