Initiation by Moonlight by MontageaLaBira

The pelican feeding its young from a self-inflicted wound of its own breast is accepted as an appropriate symbol of both sacrifice and resurrection. To the Christian mystic the pelican signifies Christ, who saved humanity (the baby birds) through the sacrifice of His own blood. In the Mysteries the pelican may also be considered as representative of the sun, who rays (blood) are the life of the seven philosophical planets depicted as the pelican’s brood, and the pelican represents the resurrection of the candidate from the dead. The mother bird signifies those divine institutions which possess the secret doctrine which is the spiritual life of man.

Eliphas Levi thus describes the Great Prototypal Man: “That synthesis of the word, formulated by the human figure, ascended slowly and emerged from the water, like the sun in its rising. When the eyes appeared, light was made; when the mouth was manifested, there was the creation of spirits and the word passed into expression. The entire head was revealed, and this completed the first day of creation. The shoulders, the arms, the breast arose, and thereupon work began. With one hand the Divine Image put back the sea, while with the other it raised up continents and mountains. The Image grew and grew; the generative organs appeared, and all beings began to increase and multiply."

While the tripod and its base as here shown differ from the description of several authors, an attempt has been made to follow as closely as possible the symbolism concealed within the allegory of the oracle. The Delphic Mysteries used the oracle as their chief symbol, and it is the spiritual esoteric mystery rather than the historical and consequently unimportant aspect with which the student of symbolism is concerned. While the spirit inhabited the fumes, which entered into the body of the priestess, the tripod vibrated as though struck severe and repeated blows. The din increased control of the daemon over the priestess became more complete; the rattling and crashing did not cease until the spirit released its hold upon the Pythia.

Confucius once said: „A child cannot help its face, but the adult is responsible for its appearance!“

The creation of the Giza pyramids has always been a mystery. Even if it is said that they are tombs, no mummy was ever found in them. Rather, it is dimensional gates or portals that the old initiates used to move between this world and the beyond. Feel the power of the pyramids!
