The connections between Harry Potter and Freemasonry are all over the net. Are they true?

The Mason’s God – a “Shaker and a Mover” – created in their own image.

Orangeism of which we have direct experience is a derivative branch of Freemasonry deny it how they will. Same horse different jockey. Their flag shows what is known as the red hand of Ulster. The red hand was taken by Walter de Burgh from the O’Neill family coat of arms in 1243 and became part of the flag of Ulster. No explanation beyond that has been furnished as to why Ulster Protestant Loyalists would tolerate an Irish chieftain’s emblem on their flag;  an emblem from ancient Irish Gaelic culture to boot, concerning the severed hand of Niall of the Nine Hostages. Perhaps it does not so much signify that hand as the bloodied hand of Hiram Abiff, architect of Solomon’s temple and alleged founder of their order. The red cross on a white ground is the symbol of Rosicrucianism, their belief system.

‘The Orange Order was founded by Freemasons in memory of William of Orange who was a Freemason.  It has two non ritual degrees. The ‘Orange’ and the ‘Plain Purple’  The three men involved in the foundation of the Orange Order were James ‘Budhra’ Wilson, Dan Winter and James Sloan. All of them were Freemasons. http://www.christian-restoration.com/fmasonry/orange.htm

Symbols can have many associated meanings. The Masonic degrees by which the aspirant ascends the ladder to their version of ‘enlightenment’ are divulged in the symbols until the “chosen one” goes “Ah! so that’s what it means!” Then he feels all ‘enlightened’ and everything and way above the common Muggle who carries his weary load etc, etc, to oblivion. One-upmanship, the very quintessence of evil whence cometh war and pillage and competitive plagiarism for instance. Triumphalism in a word, that we know all about in Ulster, that of course appeals to every conceited, ego-centric, competitive selfish child; and most adults as well, especially if they are engaged in commerce, law, government etc. Potter’s success is owed to pandering to that above all. As Jack Zipes, world’s number one critic of children’s literature put it, Potter is about “cloning little capitalists.” A noble calling for sure. Satan pays such people handsomely, let it be said. Faustus is far from a myth. Flogging your soul for success is a way of life for a great many including Rowling. Masonic symbolism, in summo, is alive and well in Ulster. The Vatican incidentally bristles with the stuff, in marble, bronze and paint.

You now have to ask what possible motive could Joanne Rowling have for deliberately using Masonic, esoteric symbolism in her text, assuming she is writing the stuff that is. What would be in it for her if she decided to do that? Has she just got a soft spot for the Freemasons do you think? Is her dad one perhaps? Bristol where the family comes from has the oldest Masonic Lodge in England. What possible affiliation could she have with that organization that she would feel impelled to delineate their program and make use of the symbols in ‘her’ work in view of the fact that she could quite easily have written the story without resort to any of it. And spent seven years by her own account doing so? And yet the symbolism is there on the covers and in the story itself, in the general weft and weave of it. As real and indubitable as the same symbolism in the Washington seal or the dollar bill.

Freemasons tell us this themselves, proudly. The word “Potter” indeed has mysteriously entered their various projects. We could overlook one or two derivatives as “coincidence” but spread all over seven books as well as the covers, does demand a better explanation. The post premiere bash for the Deathly Hallows film was held in Coventry’s Masonic hall. Pure coincidence of course. Or could it be that the Masons who are behind Potter hope to ride on the back of it eventually in a bid to make themselves as acceptable as Potter himself? Sooner or later indeed they may come clean and admit their involvement but only when they have achieved their goal in establishing themselves as a signifcant feature of the modern world not unlike the Mafia in Italy who now own and are known to own the countrys National bank. That sort of thing. Doing it in a way that will not jeopardize Rowling’s ‘authentic’ (and we pause here to laugh) authorship is likely what is staying their hand. The main Masonic lodge in New Zealand has a Potter charity going for it, although we must conjecture about the connection as it is not mentioned on their site who or what Potter is. But then, secrecy is what it is all about as Rowling’s lawyers Schillings might tell you once you sign their confidentiality agreement.

“Yes. My name is Euclid Paracelsus Mactaggart and yes… I did advise J.K. Rowling on certain symbolical elements in the books and yes, I am a Freemason and proud of it. Mister Gordon Brown who himself is not a Freemason can vouch for me.”

The owl is a medieval symbol of wisdom. Not much seems to have gone into the structuring of the Potter series. As it is clear that someone with a deep and personal knowledge of Masonic lore had to have been at Rowling’s side throughout, or we must accept that when she wasn’t doing up her nails at Amnesty during her coffee breaks or pouring through Jungian philosophy as was her supposed wont, she was indulging her favourite pastime – researching into that old boys’ secret club, of little interest to anyone not a member, called “Freemasonry”. That said, there many thousands of Masons in the UK, many of them in Scotland and more than a few in its capital Edinburgh where Rowling lives. They occupy key posts in the government, the judiciary, education, the media. How many do you suppose hold jobs in publishing bearing in mind that every book firm needs a lawyer, their favouritest of all professions?

The 250 years old Masonic lodge of Edinburgh University called The Speculative Society has a membership that it so dug into every facet of Scottish life that the country is virtually run by them in defiance of every human right clause ever written in Europe or anywhere else that was written up  protect democracy from just this sort of gangsterism.

Rowling’s and Bloomsbury’s marketing manager Rosamund de La Hey famously remarked that she hoped they could “hoodwink” the adult population as well as the children into buying the books. “Hoodwink” is the actual word she used. All hooey of course; they knew very well they intended to target parents as well as children from the very start. All that guff about how shocked and surprised they all were when adults starting reading Potter is disgusting chicanery. “Hoodwink” is the correct word, but an unfortunate choice in the context.

That word “hoodwink”, whether she was aware of it or not, has a long history. It is in fact derived directly from Masonic folklore and refers to one of their initiation rites. In this painting by Hieronymous Bosch (1450-1516) who is known to have been a Mason you can see the obvious allusions to Masonic symbolism. The tee-square in the gate and repeated elsewhere in the design is an obvious link to the order. Although the man has a hat in his hand he is yet sporting a hood. The hood was used to blindfold the initiate in the inauguration rite and may well, by our reckoning, refer to the Masons’ arch enemy the monastic order known as the Hospitallers.This rite may allude to that. It is where we get the phrase “pulling the wool over one’s eyes” and the word “hood..wink” comes from it. The painting certainly leaves on doubt. The band across this man’s chest is also part of the rite.

When the Knights Templars, the first ‘Freemasons’, were disbanded and outlawed by Pope Clement V and later Philip of France they had but one choice, join the Hospitallers or be jailed and tortured. All their vast wealth was confiscated and handed over to the rival order. The Masons never got over it. Anti-Catholicism from which we Derry’s Nationalist suffered for centuries emanates partly from that.

Hoodwinking on a grand scale is certainly what Potter and its marketing are all about. To the balance you have also to add Rowling‘s close association with Gordon Brown a noted Grand Master 33rd degree Mason, and the fact that the Freemasons were founded in Aberdeen before moving to Edinburgh where now Rowling lives and where her ‘discoverer’ and editor Barry Cunningham’s family comes from. De la Hey lives not far from it. Brown went to Edinburgh University and took a Phd in History there and was most likely a member of the Speculative Society towards which all budding lawyers gravitate. Rowling‘s favourite author Edith Nesbit was good friends with Scottish Aleister Crowley the most infamous Freemason of all time and thought, even when he was alive, to be Lucifer incarnate. She famously berated G.B. Shaw for not screwing her, outrageous behaviour in England of the 1920’s and close to lunacy.

Scotland and Freemasonry, as any Orangeman will tell you, are almost one and the same thing. The Dunblane massacre 1996 in which sixteen children died in the Scottlish town of Dunblane was linked to Edinburgh Freemasonry as the killer Thomas Hamilton was a Mason. But, we have bigger fish to fry than to try and discredit what is already clearly discredited. Here’s where you will get the full picture.

The question is, should we take all this Masonic hocus pocus seriously? The answer is yes. These are clever boys a great many of them embedded in the legal profession. There are, it is known, 700,000 Masons in the UK alone, almost one in thirty of the population, and many of these occupy positions of influence in the judiciary, the media and all walks of business life. Wherever there is power or control you will find them. Their apologists would want you to believe that their various lodges are like little principalities with scarcely any traffic between them. This is nonsense of course. It is not why they exist. It is on a par with the yarn that Rowling’s so-called ‘editor’ Barry Cunningham never got a brass farthing out of Potter. Fact is, he got millions, as did most of the other key players working for Bloomsbury at the time. Masons crave each other’s company no matter what Lodge they belong to, and were running their own ‘network’ centuries before social networking reached any of us via the internet. In the George Washington inauguration painting of 1866 on the ceiling of the US Capitol virtually all the leading players depicted including Washington were Masons. It shows the President being deified, one of the minor goals of Freemasonry. Reminds you of the Philosopher’s Stone doesn’t it?

Have we any reason to assume that things have changed? Keeping quiet that they are Masons is what they are all about. SECRECY, in a word: when they are not telling us, that is, that all the core values of liberal democracy come, not from Christianity as you supposed, but from their ‘Enlightenment’ creed planted in the free world by the pilgrim fathers most, if not all of whom, were Freemasons. Wherever there is secrecy in the law, media or government it is fair to assume that there is a Mason in its midst. Masons control in the backroom what is going on in the front, their foot soldiers blissfully unaware of what their commanders are up to, just as Catholic monks know nought of what the cardinals of Rome are doing with the billions they drag in from their nefarious enterprises. Masons incidentally, are quite welcomed in the Vatican these days since the assassination of John Paul1 the “thirty day Pope” in September 1978. He wanted to flush all the Masons out of the hierarchy. Not an inspired move. Thirty people are known to have died in mysterious circumstances following his murder. Heard of Bilderberg? How about Common Purpose? It is never too late to learn. Use the internet while you can, before the power elites take control of it, as surely they will. The present Inquisition against the UK Press, the so-called Leveson Inquiry, at which Rowling herself has testified, is but a dress rehearsal for just that. The Freemasons  behind that too? What do you think?

In this day and age of internet and mobile phones you can bet there is significant parlying between the boys at the top of the Masonic tower of Babel, globally. Their avowed aim is to build the Temple of Solomon in Jerusalem and place their own man on the throne as the Messiah, the real one, not that namby pamby couldn’t-blow-dust-off-a-grape Jesus dude; but the Zeus version hurling thunderbolts and fire and speaking on mountain tops like the late Charlton Heston. So they say. Takes a bit of getting we know, even for Potter fantasists. Their apologists laugh this to scorn pointing out that such used to be the mythology of the order but these days the Temple of Solomon is understood to be the Brotherhood itself. That is the magnum opus, the Holy Grail or whatever you want to call it. A sort  of Corpus Christi without a Christus. A congregation of the faithful, a heavenly choir on earth. That’s what they are ‘building’, they tell you. A noble aspiration except Muggles (non-Masons) like us, keep getting in the way.

Many others say this explanation is just tosh to get us to ignore their real goal which has never changed. For Masons, Jerusalem and the remains of the temple are still their mecca. End of Worlders say that if they achieve it then it is curtains for planet earth. Others say they are upping the ante so that their organization can at last attain social acceptance on a par with Scientology and McDonalds (which they own), thenceforth donations gathered openly instead of furtively. Progress, how are you? Whatever way you cut it, it comes out as sheer lunacy driven by greed, corruption and power. And if you cannot believe this, it is likely because they have already rearranged your head to make the leap of reason for you an impossible one. They control the media or did we forget to say it? That means Hollywood and all who sail in her.

Their ‘Christus’ incidentally is ancient temple master builder Hiram Abiff who was done in by three brigands for not confessing the secret password that was needed for his top men to get paid during the building of the temple. Weird stuff, so far as it goes. Symbols being what they are the password as with the Mormons is what you need to enter the pearly gates. Only the 33rd degree chaps get that. Money appears early in the mythic foundations do note. Also note the view that God is an ‘architect’, a ‘shaker and a mover’; and so you get the apologists defending the cult on the basis that in the early eighteenth century Freemasonry afforded a much needed haven for ‘free thinkers’ from the radical indoctrination, not to mention inquisitions of the Catholic church. Laudable, were it not for the fact that it attracted not just the spiritual seeker but lawyers and business men who could read their times and new where the money was. All devotees of the Enlightenment. Men, we are to believe, propelled through life by noble ideals alone. Men like George Washington and Aleister Crowley. Networking is what the Masons are about, why they formed in the first place. You believe anything to the contrary you need your head examined.

A 33 degree Master like Gordon Brown, on graduation, takes on the identity of Hiram. The “son of the widow”. What they mean by “Master” incidentally is “master of men”. Many politicians like Blair and Mandelson are Freemasons and that indeed is where it gets scary. “Masters of men?’. You can hear the jackboots already. Enthusers for genetics, evolutionists, scientists, researchers, Quango administrators and Christ alone knows who else swell their ranks. Our contention is that the publishing houses of Gt. Britain and most probably Bloomsbury who publish Potter and the Little Agency the fabled ‘discover’ of Potter very probably have Masonic leanings and connections.

They tick all the boxes… , money, business nous, political protection, cultural control… strong bonds with Scotland and politicians… it all boils down to one thing – POWER. It matters nought what form it takes but “power over men” is intrinsically evil and cannot be other. One of  Bloomsbury’s CEO’s Richard Charkin once chaired that notorious outfit Common Purpose. Now he is trustee. Find out about that Quango if you get a chance! They are all about re-educating children with your money according to their designs. Is Potter merely a tool in the enterprise? They certainly make full use of his presence in the public’s consciousness. The connections between Potter-Rowling-Tony Blair-Gordon Brown AND the Freemasons we would suggest is well worth exploring for anyone brave enough to try. That rules out the British media in the main.

Is it true that they communicate by secret handshakes? A true and embarrassing fact, as it happens, and the word “Hiram” may be whispered as well to let the lucky one know who he is talking to. Since the secret handshake has been well and truly sprung on the net ( you can see videos of Gordon and the boys in action doing the funny ‘my thumb on your knuckle’ routine) you can bet they have alternative ant-relay modus operandi’s in play as we speak.

Our point in telling all this to you is by way of re-asserting our conviction that the Freemasons of England and particularly Scotland are not only behind the Potter books and the writing of them but behind their marketing both here and in the USA. Is Rowling only a business pawn for high ranking members of Freemasonry and British political life, men like Brown who declared her the “greatest writer who has ever lived”  in the House of Commons of all places? Who else in her gang of enablers is a Freemason? As the British press is under their control as well as the judiciary you need not wonder why the plug has not been pulled on Rowling a long time ago as the arch plagiarist of her times which is exactly what she is. Her friends are ex-Prime Minister Tony Blair and his successor Gordon Brown both of whom were educated at Edinburgh, Blair at Fettes College and Brown like Blair’s father at Edinburgh University home of the Speculative Society. Their connections in that city are extensive.

If Rowling is living there it is simply because that is the safest place, legally and in every other sense, for her to be. There, she can go on laying the golden eggs without interference surrounded by protectors both in the law and the media and, of course, Edinburgh’s Masonic Lodge where Brown, we may believe, would be considered King.

Does these clear political connections of Rowling’s not explain why the venerable BBC, an acknowledged Masonic lair, has been a party to her rise and protection from the word go? Does it not also explain why the Adrian Jacobs’ case against her was stifled before it could even get to court by her lawyers Schillings whose relationship to the Masons we can reasonably assume to be probable at best and very possible at worst? Rowling is obviously and, beyond all shadow of a doubt, protected by the Freemasons. Potter is their’s. She is their’s. The work they feed off and stole with impunity is not their’s. That is the point of this article. The world should waken up to these simple facts that are easy enough to verify for anyone who takes the trouble.

Masons love secrecy and Machiavellianism. They love money and power. They seek deification… and on their own terms too, and to hell with the Muggles. They love symbols, especially the ones that have meanings only they get to know. Who among the politicians who rule the UK are Masons? If you don’t think the question is important on a par with the very sensible question as to who exactly is behind Potter then maybe you should consider the possibility that your mind is not your own. You are reluctant to find out because you have been brainwashed by their tool the media into believing what they tell you and that the Masons are as harmless and ineffectual as the Boy Scouts. Who cares? is likely your attitude. What you have to do now is examine where the attitude came from. Because you care about a whole lot of other things that have less bearing on your life. Can it be that the party atmosphere in England’s mighty Commons is due entirely to the fact that the participants, whatever party they claim to espouse, know full well who really is in control and it matters not a jot what party is in power or what party is not, because the Freemasons are at the beginning, middle and end of whatever legislation is passed. As for Potter, you tell us why it is teeming with Masonic symbols and why Rowling declares one of her favourite films to be The Man who Would be King ( Masonic) and her favourite child’s author to be Elizabeth Nesbit who famously tried to have sex with G.B. Shaw and then berated him when he backed off. Her relation to the occult world of Masonic Lucifer Aleister Crowley we leave you to discover for yourselves. All you  have to do now is find out which of the following key players in the Potter heist and gold mine are Freemasons.
