Hey all,
I was reading "Secret Societies: Their Influence and Power from Antiquity to the Present Day" by Michael Howard, and this snippet sent shivers up my spine...
"[Madeline Montalban, a well-known occultist and founder of the Order of the Morning Star]...interpreted the Baphomet figure as a glyph of the zodiac sign of Capricorn, which symbolized the material ambitions and political aspirations of the [Knights] Templar...On an esoteric level, the goatish emblem of Capricorn is regarded as a symbol for the occult initiate who climbs the celestial mountain to achieve oneness with the Divine."
Here's what's creepy: I'm a Capricorn (my birthday is January 13th, 1988)...Is this why I've been so "in touch" with my guides and all that? I'm not scared, just wondering about what this all means for me...
