Yes...I'm biting my nails waiting for the release of The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown at midnight tonight. So much so that I asked for clues and guidance from the legions of angels above as to what to expect. Here are a few clues I picked up with my sixth sense. We will see if my guide's have unraveled part of the story for me.
The First Clue: King Solomon (an email popped in my box from someone named Solomon). Solomon was the son of David, the first King of Israel and reigned for 40 years till about 922 BC.
He was most known for the construction of the first Temple of Jerusalem, Solomon's Temple, an architectural masterpiece constructed using sacred geometry and which held many symbolic secrets and mysteries. He was known for his healing powers, magic and wisdom.
The Second Clue: David's Son ( I ran into a guy at the bank who had just parked his Harley "Davidson"...a nice ride by the way.) I imagine the story will include something about the Davidic line of decent through the house of Judah to Jesus and the Fisher Kings.
The Third Clue: The number 33-- a master number, a masonic secret number and the number for Christ. By the way, Dan Brown slated the date 9-15-09 for the release of The Lost Symbol with the number 33 in mind. 9+15+9=33
The Fourth Clue: The Ark of the Covenant which as legend tells us was housed in Solomon's Temple in the Holy of Holies, also known as the bridal chamber and God's dwelling place. (a topic I know a lot about and have written about in my book Divine Complement.)
The Fifth Clue: The Trident- The symbol is associated with the Greek god Poseidon (Roman Neptune), as he held the 3 pronged spear while he ruled over and commanded the ocean waters and the cosmos. Sometimes seen as a symbol of power to ward off evil.
So we will see how good of a psychic I am.

From the reviews thus far of The Lost Symbol it looks like I was right. The book is at least partly about, the secrets of King Solomon. I would imagine that Dan Brown derived much of his research on the topic from Calvin P. Hall's book, The Secret Teachings of All Ages, a classic when it comes to the Masons, Solomon and the origins of religions. I need to get my hands on a copy.
ReplyDeleteLooks like your Sixth sense was spot on.
ReplyDeleteyesterday, while sorting through some items handed down through the family, I also have a synchronicity to add. I discovered a song book titled, "Dow's Sacred Quartets." It had been a copy of Seattle's Scottish Rite Masons. After doing some research online, I discovered there are some lyrics available from a book, though not all necessarily from the same book with the same title. I found it fascinating reading through some of the chants and hymns, in that there most definitely is mention of Solomon plus much, much more.
Like you, I'm not sure where Dan Brown obtained his info on the book he wrote, but I do look forward to reading the book as well as Hall's.
