I like the same things you do so I was following your posts around. Photoneffect too, just so you don't think I'm a stalker.
Did you see on your link where it said high priest used the "trident" hand signal? I wonder if that is the secret handshake of the Freemasons? Does anyone know what it is?

WOW look what the fundamentalists say the word vatican means. I went looking for this as I had seen it mentioned before. But I cant find sources backing up the claims outside the fundamentalists. Anything catholic maintains the word means prophesy hill. Anyone want to help back that one up? The vatican likes snakes though hey................
Caan,Caanites,Caanan,Cane,Canines(dogstars)Cannon(catholic).
I wonder how many hail Marys I would cop for asking the priest about these things, If I pushed it I could even wear ex comunication as a badge of honour.
It is in Persia that we first meet the great sky serpent Azhi Dahaka, the creator of all the planets in the sky. Early Mid-eastern myths not only see the serpent as lord of the sky and earth, he is also a lord of waters. Dwelling in the earth, frequenting springs, marshes and other water streams, the serpent glides with a motion of waves. The phallic suggestion is immediate, as it was in the initiation rites. Likewise a dual association of fire and water attaches to the lightning of the serpent strike, the forked appearance of the tongue and the lethal burning of the poison.
In Jung's view, the snake, as a chthonic and at the same time spiritual being, symbolizes the unconscious. In particular, according to Jung, the symbolism of the snake's has sudden and unexpected manifestations and painful or dangerous intervention in human affairs often has frightening effects. Crucial to the understanding of the serpent as a libido symbol is a consideration of the biological characteristics of the actual creature. Jung stresses the fact that the snake is a cold- blooded vertebrate and with that fact alone the true psychic rapport that can be established with practically all warm-blooded animals comes to an end. Like the Gnostics of early Christianity who identified the serpent with the human medulla and spinal cord, Jung regards the serpent as the psychic representation of the profoundly unconscious functions which are governed by these organs. I think that perhaps this is why the serpent is so often seen as a divine creature, a sort of god which lies behind all human functioning.
In Dahomey, the Fon people have a great serpent god who is seen as a rainbow named Danh, the son of Mtawu-Lisa.. This serpent encircles the whole world with his tail in his mouth, representing unity and wholeness. This god, also called Da orders the whole cosmos. Da has a dual nature rather than a female-male identity. When he appears in the rainbow, the male is the red part of the rainbow, the female the blue. Above the earth Da has 3500 coils, called asa-xasa, and the sme number of coils beneath the earth; together the support the world. Da is the name given to this god in action, Mawu-Lisa is the name given the god in thought. This god was exported to Haiti and Surinam.

I have come across remarks about Aboriginals who hadnt seen white people before greeting exploration parties with "masonic" hand signals.
I havnt brought it to the fold here as the references are not ATS(I adhere to the oldskool underlying ethos) standard .
and if Byrd ever found this thread I would be knocked out of the knowledge tree
So I hypothesis that hand signals are uniquely etched into the cellular memory of the universe due to repeated use since the dawn of man
The turning point within civilisation seems to be the dreaded idol worship and the giving over of power to some charged archtype.

I wonder if these aborigines are STILL in contact wwith the Rainbow Serpents? How do we go about asking them?
Hand signals would have been used before language developed even in pre humans, good for hunting when one had to communicate without alerting animals. Also good for comunicating with others outside your group.
