    Philosophy? That’s specifically Abraxas from Gnostic Christianity, so more about theology than Philosophy.

    Abraxas (or Abracax) was an anguipede (a deity represented with snake feet) pagan God of “Asian theogonies” with a “rooster’s head, dragon’s feet and a whip in his hand”.

    “The bird fights its way out of the egg. The egg is the world. Who would be born must first destroy a world. The bird flies to God. That God’s name is Abraxas.”
