The Meaning of Halloween

When we celebrate Halloween, we are actually celebrating a Christian Holy Eve that is reserved for the Saints of the Catholic All saints dayChurch, as their day to dress up in costumes in order to reap revenge on their foes. What we call today Halloween, was originally derived from what was once known as “Hallow e’en” or “Hallow eve  (Anglo- Saxon, kdlig, but _ Halig monath was September, and Halig-dag was simply a Holy-day.).”The word “Halloween” means “hallowed evening” or “holy evening”. “All Hallows” was formerly a current synonym of “All Saints.”

This day was originally celebrated as Samhain, (Bal or Baal Samhain and Beltine) – a sacred festival of the ancient Celts and Druids who were also known as pagans. This day of November 1 is the first day of winter, when the High Kings of Ireland held festival of traditional fires of Samhain at Tara Hill with a great feast to celebrate the vernal equinox, the death of the god of fire, Baal and a corresponding to the festival of his death.

The original Druids were true children of the Magi

The original Druids were true children of the Magi, their initiation deriving from Egypt and Chaldea, or in other words, from the purest stone-hengesources of primitive Kabalah…

The Druids built no temples but worked the rites of their religion on dolmens and in forests. The mechanical means by which they raised such colossal stones to form their altars is even now a matter of speculation. (more…)

Enoch Priesthood: The Priests With No Penis

There was a time in ancient history when the priesthood in various cultures were required to sever their penis’, or what is more Eunuchscommonly known as castration. These priests were first known as eunuchs (/ˈjuːnək/; Greek: εὐνοῦχος) and the Galli, who according to Herodian were named after a river called Gallus in Phrygia which is another name for the Mediterranean island of Crete.

The Cretan Galli celebrated the rites of the Goddess near the River Gallus, and it was reported that if you drank the water it would drive you mad. During the celebrations they would dance wildly in circles, beat drums, howl like wolves, and slash at their skin until it bled to which relates that of Ovid;

“Gallus, with his distracting Waters Glides, On Green Cybele and Cylene’s Sides.”

The meaning of the word eunuch is an emasculated person, and which we may also connect with the biblical Enoch that is derived from the Hebrew name חֲנוֹך (Chanokh) meaning “devoted or dedicated”. It was said that castration was most often carried out on the soon-to-be eunuch without his consent in order that he might perform a specific social function.

Eunuchs were often employed as priests and royal court officers, who many of them had great power and influence. They were also in charge of the priestesses of the Goddess as chamberlains; i. e. those who have charge of the bedchamber. In ancient Egypt it came to be applied to any court officer, whether they were castrated or not.

We learn from Clemens of Alexandria, that Pythagoras the philosopher and first true mathemagician was made an eunuch. Herodotus had said that in Persia they were far from being objects of contempt, but were frequently promoted to the highest offices. They had worn woolen good and were said to dress like the woman of that time. One of the great generals in the service of the Byzantine Emperor, Justinian I Narses was an eunuch, and also Hermias, governor of Atarnea in Mysia was also an eunuch. (more…)

By Manly P. Hall – “The world is the schoolroom of God. Our being in school does not make us learn, but within that school is the

opportunity for all learning. It has its grades and its classes, its sciences and its arts, and admission to it is the birthright of man. Its graduates are its teachers, its pupils are all created things.

Its examples are Mature, and its rules are God’s laws. Those who would go into the greater colleges and universities must first, day by day, and year by year, work through the common school of life and present to their new teachers the diplomas they have won, upon which is written the name that none may read save those who have received it.

The hours may be long, and the teachers cruel, but each of us must walk that path, and the only ones ready to go onward are those who have passed through the gateway of experience,

GOD’S GREAT SCHOOL FOR MAN”

The Pyramid shall remain as the Visible covenant between Eternal Wisdom and the world

By 33rd Degree Freemason, Manly P. Hall – The word pyramid is popularly supposed to be derived from πῦρ, fire, thus signifying that it sphinx-and-pyramid-egyptis the symbolic representation of the One Divine Flame, the life of every creature. John Taylor believes the word pyramid to mean a “measure of wheat, ” while C. Piazzi Smyth favors the Coptic meaning, “a division into ten.”

The initiates of old accepted the pyramid form as the ideal symbol of both the secret doctrine and those institutions established for its dissemination. Both pyramids and mounds are antitypes of the Holy Mountain, or High Place of God, which was believed to stand in the “midst” of the earth. John P. Lundy relates the Great Pyramid to the fabled Olympus, further assuming that its subterranean passages correspond to the tortuous byways of Hades. (more…)
