POWER OF THE TEMPLARS
|
All revolutionaries and murderers since then had been part of a single ‘Templar’ society – including Cromwell, the murderer of Henry IV of France, conspirators in Portugal, Brazil and Sweden, and of course Robespierre and Danton – Edward Burman (The Assassins: Holy Killers of Islam)

In my program The Female Illuminati I prove that the Knights Templar served as one of the main tentacles of the Sisterhood of Death. I show how the order is tied in with the Egyptian Atonists and how via the Culdean monks of Ireland they gained access to the troves of wisdom confiscated from the Druids and Bards of the prehistoric West. Their peculiar appearance, long hair, bizarre traditions and suggestive symbolism leads us to the door of the more sinister order operating behind them, ensconced in Britain a thousand years before the rise of the Templars.
Of course nothing remains static for long in the world of ordinary populations or of secret societies. There have been minor and major disputes, feuds and upheavals on all levels, not to mention short and long-term rivalries between individual members and entire branches of certain orders. Some internecine squabbles and conflicts become known publicly, while others occur unseen by ordinary people going about their business. Some investigators have written exceptional books on these events to show how the activities of secret societies impact and shape world history. I provide a short list below of suggested titles on the history and rivalries of the Knights Templar, the most malignant and powerful secret society of modern history.
Let’s take a brief look at the affluence, influence and control of the Machiavellian Knights Templar, courtesy of authors past and present:
|
…the Templars became the servants and companions of kings and princes: from the beginning they were trusted familiars in royal courts...The financial dealings of the Templars led them straight to the royal treasuries, of which they were frequently keepers. From the early thirteenth century onwards the Temple in Paris was in effect the French Royal Treasury – Peter Partner (The Murdered Magicians) Templars came from that section of the lower nobility which supplied the kings with the households servants and officials who did their familiar business. As a result the kings were influential in the affairs of the Temple: both Richard I of England and Saint Louis of France nominated their own candidate to the office of Grand Master of the Temple – ibid Alexander III was the most lavish of all popes in privileges for the Templar Order, perhaps because he borrowed money from them. From this time onwards the Templars were papal chamberlains and almoners: they were also involved in the collection of crusading taxes…Knights of the Order were often among the pope’s bodyguards and intimates – ibid Both orders (Templars and Hospitallers) controlled not only the large sums and subventions in kind which came from the west, but also substantial estates in the east which were given them by the governments of the crusading states – ibid …for a century and a half no important decision was taken in the Holy Land without consulting the Grand Masters of the Military Orders – ibid The estates of the Templars had been conferred after the dissolution to the Order upon the Order of St. John of Jerusalem, whose successors, the Knights of Malta, still enjoyed some of the remaining incomes – ibid By the beginning of the thirteenth century the Templars had become the international bankers of Europe and were appointed treasurers to the French royal family and the Vatican – Michael Howard (Occult Conspiracy) …the Templars held over nine thousand manors all over Europe, plus mills and markets. In addition to these income-producing properties, the Templars had other sources of revenue. Loot taken or shared in by any brother went to the order. During its two hundred years of existence, over twenty thousand initiates brought land or money dowries to the order – John J. Robinson (Born in Blood) The Knights Templar came to own estates of varying size scattered throughout Europe from Denmark, Scotland and the Orkney Islands in the north, to France, Italy and Spain in the south. In England and Wales alone they had over 5,000 properties. They also extended their interests into Africa, establishing a major presence in Ethiopia, where the Essene Book of Enoch was eventually rediscovered many centuries later – Christopher Knight and Alan Butler (The Hiram Key Revisited) The Templars eventually became so rich that the monarchs of some of the kingdoms within which they operated were wholly dependent on their support. Several kings of England actually lodged the treasury of the realm at the Templar headquarters in London, as surety against the massive debts they ran up with the order. This gave the Templars great power to influence decision-making, and they regularly acted as arbiters for warring monarchs – Alan Butler and Stephen Dafoe (The Knights Templar Revealed) We are entitled to ask: “From where did the financial impetus to even commence the Templar empire come?” The nine knights who attended the Troyes gathering of 1128 were, according to orthodox accounts, “poor.” In fact, this as reflected in the name chosen for the order because they were the “Poor Knights of Christ and the Temple of Solomon.” Nothing could be further from the truth, for even if the founder knights themselves were not of middle-ranking aristocratic stock…they had extremely rich backers, not the least of whom was the fabulously rich Hugh Count of Champagne. But all the money in Champagne could not have financed the exploits of the Templars on the field of battle alone – ibid The Templars were far from being a bunch of holy soldiers. They became involved on a massive scale in international banking and running the biggest fleet of merchant ships seen up to that time. The Templars owned and controlled entire towns and, even more importantly, because of their money-lending schemes, they also controlled the crowned heads of many states, who became deeply indebted to them – Alan Butler (City of the Goddess) They had entered the scene as “Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ,” but no description could have been less accurate. Among their ranks were to be found the wealthiest people of Europe: leading bankers from London and Paris, among whose customers were Blanche of Castile, Alphonso de Poitiers, and Robert of Artois. The finance ministers of James I of Aragon, and Charles I of Naples and the chief advisor of Louis VII of France were all Templars – Harun Yahya (The Knights Templar) …the Templars possessed nine thousand manors or lordships in Christendom, besides a large revenue and immense riches arising from the constant charitable bequests and donations of sums of money from pious persons. “They were also endowed,” says James of Vitry, bishop of Acre, “with farms, towns, and villages, to an immense extent both in the East and in the West, out of the revenues of which they send yearly a certain sum of money for the defense of the Holy Land to their head Master at the chief house of their order in Jerusalem” – Charles G. Addison (History of the Knights Templar, 1842) We have previously given an account of the royal donations of King Henry the First, of King Stephen and his queen, to the order of the Temple. These were far surpassed by the pious benefactions of King Henry the Second. That monarch, for the good of his soul and the welfare of his kingdom, granted the Templars a place situate on the river Fleet, near Bainard’s Castle, with the whole current of that river at London, for erecting a mill; also a messuage near Fleet-street; the church of St. Clement – ibid The Templars, in addition to their amazing wealth, enjoyed vast privileges and immunities within this realm. In the reign of King John they were freed from all amerciaments in the Exchequer, and obtained the privilege of not being compelled to plead except before the king or his chief justice. King Henry the Third granted them free warren in all their demesne lands; and by his famous charter, dated the 9th of February, in the eleventh year of his reign, he confirmed to them all the donations of his predecessors and of their other benefactors – ibid In addition to these particular privileges, the Templars enjoyed, under the authority of the Papal bulls, various immunities and advantages…They were freed…from the obligation of paying tithes, and might, with the consent of the bishop, receive them. No brother of the Temple could be excommunicated by any bishop or priest, nor could any of the churches of the order be laid under interdict except by virtue of a special mandate from the holy see – ibid When any brother of the Temple, appointed to make charitable collections for the succor of the Holy Land, should arrive at a city, castle, or village, which had been laid under interdict, the churches, on their welcome coming, were to be thrown open, (once within the year,) and divine service was to be performed in honor of the Temple, and in reverence for the holy soldiers thereof. The privilege of sanctuary was thrown around their dwellings; and by various papal bulls it is solemnly enjoined that no person shall lay violent hands either upon the persons or the property of those flying for refuge to the Temple houses – ibid In 1139, a papal bull was issued by Pope Innocent II – a former Cistercian monk at Clairvaux and protégé of Saint Bernard. According to this bull the Templars would owe allegiance to no secular or ecclesiastical power other than the Pope himself. In other words, they were rendered totally independent of all kings, princes, and prelates, and of all interference from both political and religious authorities. They had become, in effect, a law unto themselves, an autonomous international empire – Baigent, Lincoln & Leigh (Holy Blood, Holy Grail) In England, for example, the master of the Temple was regularly called to the king’s Parliament and was regarded as head of all religious orders, taking precedence over all priors and abbots in the land. Maintaining close ties with both Henry II and Thomas à Becket, the Templars were instrumental in trying to reconcile the sovereign and his estranged archbishop. Successive English kings, including King John, often resided in the Temple’s London preceptory, and the master of the order stood by the monarch’s side at the signing of the Magna Carta – ibid …the Templars remained absolutely central to everything that was happening in Europe, and what is more they were partly instrumental in the formation of the Western World as we know it today – Alan Butler and Stephen Dafoe (The Warriors and the Bankers) |

The symbolism reveals all. The red lion represents the illustrious and ancient Atonist cabal (the Order of Melchizedek/Akhenaton), the descendants of which direct the world’s more obvious secret societies, be they Catholic or Protestant in complexion. The white unicorn represents their loyal, efficient lieutenants, the Judites, Gaonim, Templars, Masons, College of Cardinals, Illuminati, etc. Note the chain around the neck of the unicorn. It’s a reminder of the pecking order, the status quo, and the punishment expected for disloyalty and disobedience. The unicorn represents the passive moon which reflects the light of the sun, or more correctly of the Sun Lords, the Princes of Light. (Here for more…)
![]() The bee was revered by the Merovingian nobility and the ancient Jews. It is also employed as a key symbol of hierarchy and order by Freemasons. Suggestively, at the center of the beehive lives the Queen Bee. Again, the symbolism speaks volumes.

For the Sicambrian Franks, from whom the Merovingians issued, the bear enjoyed a similar exalted status…they worshiped the bear in the form of Artemis – or…Arduina, patron goddess of the Ardennes…Given the magical, mythic, and totemic status of the bear in the Merovingian heartland of the Ardennes, it is not surprising that the name “Ursus” – Latin for “bear” – should be associated in the “Prieuré documents” and the Merovingian royal line – Baigent, Leigh, Lincoln (Holy Blood, Holy Grail)

Mathilde of Portugal (1157-1218) was the first noblewomen
in the West to lay eyes on the Holy Grail. |

|
The keepers of the Grail were female, for good reason. Although there is little written about the women behind and beside the great thrones of Europe and Britain, and even less said to be believed, it is time to pay greater attention to the role of the mothers, wives, daughters, sisters and female patrons who helped shape history as much as the men they bore, nurtured and inspired. On a symbolic level we’ve been told loudly enough that Queen Helena was the true founder of Christianity. Her Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem stood on the site of a temple of Venus. It was Margaret of Scotland who took a shine to William St. Clair and gave his family the land on which Rosslyn Chapel was built. It was Mathilde of Saxony who patronized the Cistercians. It was Mathilde of Portugal who co-commissioned the Grail Legend. On and on it goes. The Templars venerated Mary Magdalene and St. Euphemia. The patron saint of the Knights Hospitaller was the Lady Philermos. Bernard de Clairvaux was devoted to the Virgin Mary and bore the personal title ”Knight of the Virgin.” The skull worshiped by the Templars was that of an unknown female not a male. Even the long hair of the Templars connotes the female. Godfrey de Bouillon was crowned monarch of Jerusalem in the oldest Templar abbey in Jerusalem, known as the Mother of all Churches. The full name of the Order of Sion was “Order of Our Lady of the Mount of Sion.” As I show in the Female Illuminati program, in ancient Egypt and other lands, women were initiated into, and commanded, the highest levels of the most illustrious secret societies, not men. To rise within the female order, a male acolyte had to offer up his phallus, hence the symbolism of a cup containing “blood.”

What Do the Symbols Tell?

Another clue that the symbol proudly displayed by the Templars did not denote poverty was that the Templars were one of the richest societies that ever existed. Their wealth and properties extended from the Middle East to Western Europe. Individual knights could not own personal property of any value…But as members of their Order they had castles, armor, horses and the like in great profusion, and wanted for nothing. Poverty was not what made them special – Sanford Holst

1. Church of the Holy Sepulchre. 2. Dome of the Rock. During the First Crusade, Godfrey and his knights lived in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, beside the Dome of the Rock and supposed site of the Temple of Solomon. The Church of the Holy Sepulchre was allegedly the site of the crucifixion of Jesus. The Church was actually constructed by Queen Helena, mother of Emperor Constantine the Great, after 325 AD. Her pilgrimage to the East is most interesting, given that the site for the new Christian Church was actually built over a temple dedicated to Venus. We can deduce that the Queen met with priestesses of the Cult of Venus, possibly to be initiated by them and made into their agent despite her Christian facade. (Her son Constantine was a member of the Sol Invictus cult.) Indeed she may already have been one of their number before visiting Jerusalem. In this case Christianity a la Helena and Constantine was really a blending of the new with the old, with the approval of the Cult of Venus. It is interesting that according to Christian legend, Helena personally discovered and owned a piece of the original cross upon which Jesus was crucified. As preposterous as the tale is, in symbolic terms it means that Helena, not her son Constantine, was the true founder of the Christian religion. In any case the Templars who later frequented the “Church of Helen,” and named their order after it (her), might have been initiates and agents of the earlier sect. (The name Helen or Helene is akin to Selene meaning “moon,” and also connotes a flaming torch, another major goddess symbol.) A domed temple appears on Templar coins and insignia, along with the orb and cross which make the symbol for the planet Venus. Their black and white flag and other emblems connote a dual allegiance and tradition. I strongly believe that women central to Merovingian and Templar history – such as Mary Magdalene and Mathilde of Lorraine, etc – were, like Queen Helena, priestesses of this elusive Luciferian Cult of Venus, operating behind the elite Gaonim and under the pseudonym Order of Sion. Male orders such as the Templars serve simply as their external operatives. (Here for more…)


Allegedly the nine tail feathers on the eagle which emblazons the Great Seal of the United States of America symbolize the nine original Templars. This is not as far-fetched as it seems, since the number thirteen – a key Templar number – appears numerous times on the one dollar note (see program). The arrows represent the Templars and the olive branch the Cistercians, the two branches of the super-secret order, military and monastic. The secondary allusion of these symbols is to the dialectic – of war versus peace – as different (but secretly connected) methods by which the overarching sociopolitical agendas of the secret cabal, the Architects of Control, are attained. The motto around the eagle’s head – From the Many One – also iterates this methodology and denouement. (See program for a complete analysis of the Great Seal.)

Templar membership is by invitation only. Candidates are required to be Master Masons, Royal Arch Masons, and to believe in the Christian Holy Trinity. Knights Templar meet in Preceptories. The Order is administrated from Mark Masons’ Hall, London; members may also join the Knights of Malta and/or the Knight Templar Priests – Wikipedia Online Encyclopedia (Entry on Masonic Bodies)

Elizabeth I holding the Scepter and Sovereign’s Orb. The latter is the astrological symbol for the planet and Cult of Venus.

When the Templars were attacked in the 1300s, only a few hundred of them were arrested, out of the several thousand people in their Order. The rest disappeared behind a veil of complete privacy, becoming fugitives of powerful leaders of church and state – Sanford Holst

The Scottish rite of Freemasonry, oldest of the Masonic lodges employed
to provide shelter for the Templars, was established in the 14th century by Templars seeking refuge in Scotland. It became an example for the rest to follow. The titles of the Scottish lodges’ highest ranks continue to be identical to those given to the Knights Templar centuries before – Harun Yahya (The Knights Templar) |

…the Templars remained absolutely central to everything that was happening in Europe, and what is more they were partly instrumental in the formation of the Western World as we know it today. The Templar state was, and is, Switzerland – Butler and Dafoe (The Warriors and the Bankers) It was in Geneva that the League of Nations was formed after the First World War, and it was also from Geneva that the International Red Cross sprang up in the 19th century. Earlier still, Switzerland had fostered the embryonic notion of Protestantism, which without the important bastion it found in Geneva, may never have survived to challenge the retarding and corrupt influences of the all-powerful Catholic Church in the 16th and 17th centuries – ibid |

According to the “Prieuré documents” every grand master, on assuming his position, has adopted the name Jean (John) – or, since there were four women, Jeanne (Joan). Sion’s grand masters are therefore alleged to have comprised a continuous succession of Jeans and Jeannes, from 1188 to the present – Baigent, Leigh, Lincoln (Holy Blood, Holy Grail)

…a great head of gilded silver, most beautiful, and constituting the image of a woman. Inside were two head-bones, wrapped in a cloth of white linen, with another red cloth around it…The bones inside were those of a rather small woman – (Inquisition Records describing the Templar’s chief icon)

We have shown that Templarism has been endemic to Freemasonry from its inception, long before the formation of Grand Lodge in London – Butler and Dafoe (The Warriors and the Bankers) Replete as it is with Christian symbolism, York Rite Freemasonry still espouses Templar beliefs – probably to a greater extent than any other branch of Freemasonry – ibid In September 2001, Barbara Frale discovered a copy of the Chinon Parchment dated 17–20 August 1308 in the Vatican Secret Archives, a document that indicated that Pope Clement V absolved the leaders of the Order in 1308. Frale published her findings in the Journal of Medieval History in 2004. In 2007, the Vatican published the Chinon Parchment as part of a limited edition of 799 copies of Processus Contra Templarios. Another Chinon parchment dated 20 August 1308 addressed to Philip IV of France, well-known to historians, stated that absolution had been granted to all those Templars that had confessed to heresy “and restored them to the Sacraments and to the unity of the Church” – Wikipedia Online Encyclopedia (Entry on the History of the Knights Templar) |


Modern-day Templar-funded organizations include the bizarre and super-wealthy Scientologists. Other fronts include the Rosicrucians (AMORC) and Martinists.

Conclusion
|
We must allow all the federations to continue just as they are…organized as they are at the present, but we must create a super rite, which will remain unknown, to which we will call those Masons of high degree whom we shall select. With regard to our brothers in Masonry, these men must pledge to the strictest secrecy. Through this supreme rite, we will govern all Freemasonry which will become the one international center, the more powerful because its direction will be unknown – Albert Pike

The split between the Templars and their parent, the Order of Sion, certainly occurred in the twelfth century. Most experts on the Templars believe the breach was never healed and that world events took shape due to the ongoing conflict between the opposing branches. As said above, the rise of Protestantism was but one consequence of the breach, the result of some Order of Sion elite families moving from France to Holland and converting to Protestantism. Other astute commenters know that there was nothing authentically Christian (Catholic) about the Templars. Their allegiance lay elsewhere, and in my opinion the Templars were nothing less than the male front organization for the all-powerful Female Illuminati, operating at the time under the guise of the Order of Sion.
However, we must also consider the possibility that the breach between the Templars and Order of Sion was at some point sufficiently healed. Perhaps the rivalry between the groups has therefore been a faux rivalry, a made-to-order opposition by which the desired ends of both factions are efficiently attained. Perhaps the two “rivals” have secretly been working in consort for centuries, and the obvious and open polarities – Catholic vs. Protestant or Atheist vs. Religious, etc – have been preserved as convenient and expedient smokescreens. This is after all what Albert Pike’s own writings suggest. It is also what the Templar motto implies – In this sign I conquer. Two crossed swords are seen near this motto as well as the cross and crown. It is also implied by the famous symbols of the twin horsemen, double-headed eagle, double-barred cross of Lorraine, and divided Masonic compass. It’s clearly a case of “divide and rule,” or more appropriately of “faux divide and rule.”
In this case the commenters who emphasize the continuing antipathy between the Templars and Sionists are either hoodwinked and ignorant or deliberately duplicitous agents of the Templar cabal – the Architects of Control.
