Virgoville

Overall its an informative book well worth reading so I give it 5 stars. He rehashes the virgo thing to death throughout the book where I felt he could have laid that out better in 1 or 2 chapters.Also as mentioned by others below he left alot of Masonic stuff out.I recommend watching on video AMERICAS SECRET DESTINY and RIDDLES IN STONE they add and parallel this book quite well.

Masonic America: Bacon's New Atlantis

Comprehensive book revealing America's esoteric/masonic foundation. The Masons initiated the Revolution, crafted the Constitution and designed D.C. Wish he would have covered America's true founding father, Sir Francis Bacon. Plato's Republic inspired Bacon's Atlantis, which, along with Virgil's Aeneid, became America's blueprint. Couple this work with Secret Destiny of America and Brotherhood of the Sun for more hidden history of America.

very worthwhile

This is a wonderful book, I highly recommend it. Exhaustively referenced, with many hard-to-find images. This book will fascinate a wide range of people, from those interested in Art History to those interested in the occult. The writing style is colloquial, but intelligent, offering a new perspective on American History. Don't hesitate to buy it.

America: Founded upon Masonic Principles, by Masons

George Washington layed the Cornerstone of The White House in "Full Masonic Regalia" and I have found various illustrations of our Founding Father, in his Regalia, surrounded with Masonic Symbolism, but this book contains more, including the story! I have known that America was founded upon Masonic Principles for a very long time, but this is the first book I have seen, in the public domain, that tells much of story. Also, there are many Illustrations, Full Color Photos and informative Masonic revelations in this book that I have not seen, before. I cannot claim that the Astrological information was new to me...but, I have been studying Astrology and reading Masonic texts for ten years. Anyone with a smidgeon of interest in Masonry knows that America was founded upon these Principles and the ideas of Great Men, such as John Locke..... However, most people do not realize that America is Founded upon Masonry, to the extent that it pervades the Architecture--not-only of Washington, D.C.--of our Nation. Public buildings all-over Louisville, KY and the surrounding area (including small towns in Indiana) are adorned with Masonic Symbolism. Masonic Symbolism is built into the Stonework of most of the Courthouses and other public buildings, including churches. A small town, in Indiana, even has Masonic Templar Symbolism built into the stained-glass windows. For an interesting journey, take a Carriage ride around Louisville, KY (and check-out the Symbolism on the "2nd street bridge," then cross-over to Jeffersonville, IN and take a good look at the old Masonic Lodge!). It's not just D.C. Folks...it's the whole country. However, this fine book explores the wonders of our Nation's Capitol and gives us beautiful pictures of our "hidden" history. Nearly every Mason will want this book, because it has a photo of Albert Pike's Grave Site and lots of Masonic Symbolism, plus one beautiful, full-color Masonic Jewel ! Also, High-Degree Masons are building a "Masonic Museum" to showcase their contribution to History and Society, which will prove this book is a wonderful addition to your collection. Buy it now, in Hardback, because this ones will be a Collector's Item, soon.....

An Esoteric Tour of the US Capital

It's generally well known that many of the Founding Fathers were Masons. Ovason presents convincing evidence that Masonic symbolism is hard-wired into the layout of our nation's capital. To do so, he reviews the beginnings of the city: Washington's selection of this site for the new nation's capital, the design competitions, the building projects. Having lived in DC at one time, this alone made the book worthwhile. Ovason then overlays the city with all the astrological symbolism that can be found around the district. Some of it is in the open and is plain for all to see. Other things are hidden. Better yet, alignments between zodiacal symbols have meanings and the author careful spells it all out.I won't give away the complete story, but Ovason has discovered something in the layout of Constitution Avenue, Pennsylvania Avenue and the Old Post Office that locks heaven and earth together and gives literally concrete meaning to celestial symbology. Washington is the New Rome, and our Founding Fathers carefully imprinted their hopes for the future in the very streets of the city.You'll never look at Washington, DC the same way ever again.
