Many fail to realize the uniqueness and meaning of symbols. Once we understand the definition of a symbol, we can more easily understand how the esoteric world communicates with each other. According to Webster's dictionary, a symbol is "something that stands for or suggests something else by reason of relationship, association, convention, or accidental resemblance, etc.: a visible sign of something invisible."
This is important to know because when we see a symbol we now know that there is a meaning behind what is actually being shown since a symbol is "a visible sign of something invisible." A related word, symbolism, is "the use of conventional or traditional signs in the representation of divine beings and spirits." This is important because many of these symbols also represent gods and goddesses.
The following statement by Masonic author, George H. Steinmetz explains how important these symbols are to the occult [hidden] world: "The symbols are not used in the commonly accepting meaning. It is 'NOT BY EXACT RESEMBLANCE,' the IS a more recondite [occult or esoteric] interpretation, as we suspected; it is one of SUGGESTIONS OR ASSOCIATION IN THOUGHT.
"There is a SECRET DOCTRINE in Freemasonry. That secret doctrine is concealed, rather than revealed, by the very lectures which, we are told offer a rational explanation of the ceremonies of initiation. If we were to accept these rational explanations as final, and seek no further, Freemasonry would be a farce."
Another Masonic writer, Carl Claudy, mentions that there are secrets inside secrets in symbolism. He "CUT THROUGH THE OUTER SHE;; AND FIND A MEANING; CUT THROUGH THAT MEANING AND FIND ANOTHER; UNDER IT IF YOU DIG DEEP ENOUGH YOU MAY FIND A THIRD, A FOURTH - WHO SHALL SAY HOW MANY TEACHINGS?"
Another occult book writes: "A symbol is a figure of something intellectual, moral or spiritual, a visible object, REPRESENTING to the mind the semblance of SOMETHING WHICH IS NOT SHOWN but realized by association with it."
Another occult writer reminds: "It may be asserted in the broadest terms that the FREEMASON WHO KNOWS NOTHING OF OUR SYMBOSIM KNOW LITTLE OF FREEMASONRY. He may be able to repeat every line of the ritual without an error, yet if he does not understand the meaning of the ceremonies, the signs, the words, the emblems and figures, he is a MASONIC IGNORAMUS." This is why the following pictures of Cindy McCain, Hillary Clinton, Bashar Assad and the Phoenix Bird convey such a powerful message to those OCCULTIC BRETHREN in the know.
As you are probably aware, the media and Hollywood is the major evangelist of the forces of Antichrist. As such, the programming used will be to transform the way society thinks. A television serial was called "PHOENIX" which gave "us an extraterrestrial shaman and 'messiah' upon whom the salvation of the world may depend. The shaman, or witch, is endowed with awesome psychic powers, not the least of which are levitation, psychokinesis and acute ESP." Now, we can clearly see how the Phoenix Bird is being used to condition the minds of the American people that in the future, the "messiah" will be identified with The Phoenix, as Hillary, Cindy and Assad displayed prominently. Thus, the Hillary, McCain and Assad (nick named Sphinx) group are telling their followers that they are in union with forces of Antichrist, whom the Phoenix Bird symbolizes. The January 1988 issue of The Economist said that a new currency was coming. Its name? The Phoenix!
Now we can easily see how the Phoenix fits in with all of the designs of Antichrist as the Bible predicted he would control. As occultist Manly P. Hall wrote: "All symbols have their origin in something tangible, and the Phoenix is one sign of the secret orders, of the ancient world and of the initiate of those orders, for it was common to refer to one who had been accepted into the temples as a man twice-born, or re-born. Wisdom confers new life, those who become wise are born again.
The Phoenix symbol is important in another way, an emblem among nearly all civilized nations of royalty, power, superiority, and immortality. The Phoenix of China is identical in meaning with the Phoenix of Egypt, the Phoenix of the Greeks, and the Thunder Bird of the American Indians.
There are many other symbols used by the political, economic and religious world of Antichrist to communicate. You can see literally hundreds of them illustrated in various books.
On the night of the New Hampshire primary victory, Senator McCain was joined at the podium by his wife Cindy. New Age groups network with one another by using symbolic language. In this case, the Phoenix Bird that Cindy was wearing is the tie that binds. When Cindy was standing by her husband on that night of the New Hampshire primary victory, she was prominently wearing the New Age Phoenix Bird Pin! While the "Drudge Report" is calling this the "Hillary Pin," the truth is far deeper.
As you can clearly see in this closeup photo of the "Hillary Pin," you will notice that this bird is not an American Eagle. It's neck is too thin and is stretched well out. This bird is actually the occult Phoenix Bird that has it's root in Ancient mythology. It actually symbolized the New Age concept of being born-again. While Christians are born again when Jesus Christ comes into their heart, the New Ager is born-again with a different demon spirit. The Antichrist will also be a born-again individual when he is possessed with Lucifer himself. Manly P. Hall, in his book entitled, The Secret Destiny of America, 1958, p. 176-177 wrote:
"All symbols have their origin in something tangible, and the Phoenix is one sign of the secret orders of the ancient world, and of the initiate of those orders, for it was common to refer to one who had been accepted into temples as a man twice-born, or reborn. Wisdom confers a new life, and those who become wise are born again."
Note what a former witch had to say regarding the occult belief in the Phoenix Bird. "The Phoenix.. is believed to be a divine bird going back to Egypt.. This Phoenix destroys itself in flames and then rises from the ashes. Most occultists believe that the Phoenix is a symbol of Lucifer who was cast down in flames and who they think will one day rise triumphant. This, of course, also relates to the rising Hiram Abiff, the Masonic 'christ.' [Source: Dr. C. Burns, Masonic and Occult Symbols Illustrated, p. 123]
Manly P. Hall further wrote in The Secret Destiny of America, 1958, p. 177-77: "Among the ancients a fabulous bird called the Phoenix is described by early writers such as Clement, Herodotus, and Pliny: in size and shape is resembled the eagle, but with certain differences. The body of the Phoenix is one covered, with glossy purple feathers and the plumes in its tail are alternately blue and red. The head of the bird is light in color, and about its neck is a circle of golden plumage. At the back of its back the Phoenix has a crest of feathers of brilliant color. Only one of these birds was supposed to live at a time, with its home in the distant parts of Arabia, in a next of frankincense and myrrh. The Phoenix, it is said, lives for 500 years and at its death its body opens and the new born Phoenix emerges. Because of this symbolism, the Phoenix is generally regarded as representing immortality and resurrection.
This symbolism continues in the Antichrist tradition of always attempting to duplicate what the Lord Jesus Christ has done. Note some of the common points:
1. The Phoenix Bird lives in a nest of frankincense. Men brought the Lord Jesus frankincense. Each of the substances brought to Jesus by the Magi has a distinct meaning in the ministry of our Savior. The "frankincense represents the priestly ministry of Jesus Christ in interceding on our behalf.
2. The Phoenix also has myrrh in it's nest. Myrrh represented the future death of our Lord that was to pay the penalty for all of our sins. Since the Antichrist will falsely proclaim to be the Messiah, he will try to proclaim to be the Messiah, he will try to use this symbolism to deceive the masses.
3. Thirdly, the Phoenix is to rise again. Thus attempting to replicate the resurrection of our Lord Jesus.
It is for this reason the New Age movement has seized upon the Phoenix Bird as once of their major symbols as one of their "ties that bind." What we are witnessing before our very eyes is the actual fulfillment of Bible prophecy. It really doesn't matter who gets elected President of the United States. The person who is elected, no matter who he may be, will be under the control of these New Age leaders and actually be fulfilling what the plan of God determined before it was to be done.
In other pictures of the Phoenix Bird, it is shown carrying two balls which represents the two types of worlds we live in. One represents the old world under Christianity and the other represents the new world that will be ushered in by the Antichrist. In the same picture, the Phoenix Bird is looking to it's left, which is significant. In occult symbolism, when a bird is looking to its right, it means that he is supportive...
The Antichrist will use black magic to prosper the world. The Book of Daniel and Revelation reveal that 10 world leaders will be of the same spiritual force as Antichrist, giving their allegiance to him. Beloved, we are ever closer to the appearing of the Lord Jesus for His own. Are you ready? If you have not experienced the forgiveness of personal sins yet, it is time to do so! Unless you have had your sins washed in the Blood of Jesus Christ, God's Lamb, you are still in your sins! His salvation is FREE to all who will receive Him. [Today, the Bible and You, April 2000] (The pin on Cindy was noticed by a bystander at the rally)
