The Secretive Societies

This book finishes the exposition of the globalization conspiracy and how it has been put into action by examining the similarities and differences between the many factions of the New World Order and their common ideological origins. Dry descriptions are given of the types and orders of open and secret societies and how they have all been used to further the globalization agenda. Particular topics include a sober analysis of the disinformation schemes organized by the Frenchmen Léo Taxil and Pierre Plantard, the nature of corporations and think tanks as well as their roles in world government, and the historical origins of each of the Illuminized secret societies or religious cults and their connections with Freemasonry. Implicit reference is given to where each of the categories of societies falls into the correct interpretation of the vision of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse of John.

The Secretive Societies attempts to present an entirely original and independent summary of the above information free from the oft-repeated but illogical and often deliberate disinformation sound bytes which currently dominate the entire genre.

The collegiate fraternal orders are technically Hermetic institutions since they all have implanted in them the symbols and rituals of the ancient Hermetic cults. However, only the adepts of the Luciferian religion have any idea of the real significance of the symbolism. More importantly, Hermetic cults such as the Gnostic Catholic Church and the Royal Society of London have been used in recent times to subvert conservative ideologies and institutions in the West, particularly those of Christianity, the mortal enemy of Luciferianism.

The verifiable history of the Hermetic cults other than the Society of Jesus began with the publication of Fama Fraternitatis, or A Discovery of the Fraternity of the most laudable Order of the Rosy Cross (1614). After returning to Europe from the Middle East the legendary Christian Rosenkreuz supposedly founded the Fraternity of the Rose Cross and built a temple called the House of the Holy Spirit. According to oral tradition he was the sole survivor of a German family which had been persecuted because it had embraced the heresy of the Albigenses, and he was supposedly raised in a monastery under their influence in Languedoç. Some influential Hermeticists have claimed that he was reincarnated as St. Germain who reportedly died in 1784.

Another version of the story is that which William Cooper is known to have espoused. According to the legend Ormus was converted to Christianity by St. Mark in 46 AD. This story was told by the Golden and Rosy Cross during the 18th century.

It is also probable that the Order of the Rosy Cross does not have a continuous history from its legendary founding to the time of Francis Bacon. Whether or not this is true, Queen Elizabeth sent him to the European continent and he spent some time there among the Pleiades, a secret society run by Marguerite de Valois, wife of King Henry of Navarre and daughter of Catherine de Medici. The Pleiades performed the customs of the Steinmetzen, and the German name of Rosenkreuz is probably a pseudonym for Francis Bacon which he adopted while he was on the continent, though this does not necessarily mean that he was the only one with it. More likely is that all the Rosicrucians called themselves Christian Rosenkreuz at that time.

In 1594 initiations into the order of the Pleiades were performed in England as a play written by Bacon called “The Order of the Helmet” in order to hide their purpose. The publication of the Fama Fraternitatis was followed by the Confessio Fraternitatis (1615) and the Chymical Wedding of Christian Rosenkreutz (1616), giving Hermeticism a relatively complete body of literature in the German language. They were very popular throughout Europe, and declared “the existence of a secret brotherhood of alchemists and sages who were preparing to transform the arts, sciences, religion, political, and intellectual landscape of Europe.” Other important writings of the early Rosicrucians included John Dee’s Monas Hieroglyphica (1564), Heinrich Khunrath’s Amphitheatrum Sapientiae Aeternae (1609), Henrichus Neuhusius’ Pia et Utilissima Admonitio de Fratribus Rosae Crucis (1618) and Elias Ashmole’s Theatrum Chimicum britannicum (1650).

Many people believe that Martin Luther was a Rosicrucian and point to his seal as evidence, as well as the fact that his place of hiding between 1521 and 1522 was near the legendary birthplace of Christian Rosenkreuz. The Rosicrucian Fellowship traces the original Rosicrucian order to 1313 and Dante Alighieri’s Divine Comedy. The association of the rose and the cross had existed at least from 1530 (and probably several centuries earlier) with the Order of Christ, the renamed Templar order in Portugal. If the Order of Christ was the first group to use the symbol then it is logical to assume that the Alumbrados came from the order and that all the Illuminati are therefore inheritors of the Rosicrucian legacy if not Rosicrucians themselves.

Many sources attest that the Rosicrucians’ mysterious College of Invisibles is comprised of high-ranking adepts of Hermeticism who govern the initiates of other less important secretive societies, and this supports the Templar-Rosicrucian-Illuminati connection. Rosicrucian orders created since the mid-19th century are numerous and include the Fraternitas Rosae Crucis (1861), the Societas Rosicruciana in Anglia (1866), the Societas Rosicruciana in Civitatibus Foederatis (1880), the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn (1888), the Rosicrucian Fellowship (1911), the Anthroposophical Society (1912), the Ancient Mystical Order Rosae Crucis (1915), the Rosicrucian Order Crotona Fellowship (1924), the Lectorium Rosicrucianum (1934), the Orden Rosenkreuz (1988) and the Confraternity of the Rose Cross (1996). The final synthesis of the last remaining secretive societies scheduled to be created in 2012 with the completion of the long-awaited Temple is tentatively to be named the Order of the Temple of the Rosy Cross.

Of these the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn has had the most worldwide influence due to Crowley’s initiation and the Ordo Templi Orientis which it inspired. The Ordo Templi Orientis has grand lodges in the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, Australia and Norway. Other organizations based on the order’s rites include the Typhonian O.T.O. and the Societas O.T.O. Rudolf Steiner, the founder of Anthroposophy, was also a member of the O.T.O.

The Golden Dawn was founded by Freemasons of the Societas Rosicruciana in Anglia. William Wynn Westcott, the chief influence, was also a member of the Theosophical Society. Other religious rites and practices besides Freemasonry and Theosophy which influenced the Golden Dawn’s ideologies include Kabbalah, Theurgy, Papus and Enochian magic. Other societies based on the original rites of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn include the Esoteric Order of the Golden Dawn, the Rosicrucian Order of Alpha and Omega, the Mountain Temple & Order of the Golden Dawn, the Open Source Order of the Golden Dawn, the Order of the Golden Dawn, the Ordo Stella Matutina and the Sodalitas Rosae Crucis et Solis Alati.

Leaders of the international conspiracy are chosen from these groups whose members are far more aware of the nature and purpose of the Luciferian agenda than are the initiates of other secretive societies. According to Michael Howard Benjamin Franklin was a grand master of Rosicrucianism and “Agent 72 of the British intelligence agency created by Dr. John Dee and Francis Bacon during the reign of Elizabeth I.” It was through the development of the transcontinental contacts through their common Rosicrucian origins that Franklin and Dashwood subverted Western occult traditions on behalf of Weishaupt’s Illuminaten.

In either case (of capitalism or socialism) the corporations are actually more powerful than the state. Friedman (see endnote 11) discusses an incident in 1988 when 2500 angry workers took over the Brazilian government-controlled National Steel Company in Volta Redonda, demanding retroactive pay and reduced work hours. In the ensuing “veritable urban guerrilla warfare operation” 3 workers were killed and 36 were wounded. Four years later the same factory’s workers demanded that it be privatized in order to remain competitive, and it has contributed to the privatization of other state-owned factories in Brazil (pp. 44-45). Globalization is unavoidable for the simple fact that the vast majority of people in the industrialized world are incapable of imagining a world without the pursuit of currency, and all material efforts are therefore directed to the end of globalization whether they are performed under the guise of capitalism or of nationalism.
