 The mysterious, secret signs and hand signals explained. July 22, 2008
Codex Magica: Secret Signs, Mysterious Symbols, and Hidden Codes of the Illuminati
Most people didn,t even suspect that the Illuminati used secret signals among others, to let each other know: "We belong to the same Order". But now we have for the first time a book wich explains in detail the meanings of these secret mesages with wich the Illuminati communicate with each other. This book, "Codex Magica" by bestselling author Texe Marrs shows us the true meanings of the coded mesages whereof the Illuminati don,t wont to let us know what they are saying to each other. Discover for example the mysterious sign whereby some one "thrust his hand in his bossom". In general, this mean figurely spoken that you've got to look to yourself first, before you can say something about some one else. But what is the original and true meaning of this secret signal? It is in reallity a hidden and secret mesage of a high Freemason towards another Freemason. It is the "Sign of the "Master of the Second Veil" or "Sign of the Hidden Hand of the Men of Jaubuhlun." When a Freemason met somebody who is completely unknown to him and he sees that man making this sign, he knows nevertheless: "He is one of ours, he belong to us." And look for example to the true creator of Communistic Russia, Karl Marx. Why is it that he carried a long unkept beard? Someone would maybe say: "That was the trend in those days." Well, maybe can this be true for those who are not familiar with the secrets of the Illuminati. But the hidden meaning of it is that Marx was in reallity a worshipper of the mysterious diety Baphomet. With his beard, he honored one of the pagan gods of the Illuminti!(page 100) And on page 110, we see a drawing of the ancient god Baal, sitting on a throne. Before him stands a priest, ready to offer a baby child as a sacrifice to him. Thereupon,the child was throwing alive in a great fire, to satisfy this Molech. The head of Baal is the head of a bull. It is no coincidence that during the celebration in commemoration of 50 years of the Treaty of Rome in the month of March 2007 in the Knights'Hall in The Hague, one of those who walked over the cat walk, during a masquerade before a important audience with among others, Queen Beatrix of The Netherlands, Premier Jan-Peter Balkenende and many other dignitarys, carried the head of the same bull! And there is much, much more to discover in "Codex Magica." Therefore, I highly recommend this important Encyclopedia of secret signs, handshakes, and signals to everybody who is interested in the twilight world of the Illuminati.
 Destructive and Dangerous Nonsense May 26, 2008
0 out of 2 found this review helpful
Everything about this book is offensive to anyone with even a passing knowledge of history. Best classified as pseudo history, it is a complete misinterpretation of christianity, the bible, religion, fraternal organizations and the occult, espousing a point of view that perhaps can only be understood if seen through the narrowest lens of fundamentalist christianity. A lack of honest scholarship that would be laughable, if only the views contained within were not so often wielded by the christian right. That dark and ignorant nadir of destructive dominionist eschatological belief currently casting its long shadow over our beautiful earth of love and light.
OUTSTANDING REFERENCE MATERIAL May 14, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book has got to be one of the most PROLIFIC, thoroughly-researched reference books published of late.
Not only does it provide outstanding graphics to support the thread of demonic-laced propaganda infiltrated throughout ALL mediums of communication, but the author does this with a manner as to not mislead, but unveil to the reader the final picture.
Many anti-conspiracy theorists will argue that "fanatics" will link ANYTHING and everything to satanism. But the flip-side of that argument coin is to ask oneself, "Why ISN'T possible that the original creation of symbolism, mysticism and idolatry wasn't based in satanism in a MASS effort to "conceal, confound and ultimately conjoin" the masses to worship a more sinister concept?
Is this NOT the same corruption that Our Lord God spoke of destroying throughout the Bible?
 Ridiculous October 23, 2007
10 out of 18 found this review helpful
I debated giving this one or two stars. I chose two due to the sheer number of images included, many of which are of historical interest.
My overall impression of the book is that the author looked up some modes of recognition (signs) used by freemasons and then went through thousands of pictures of famous people, choosing those that caught the person making a gesture vaguely resembling the sign. People who aren't freemasons or illuminati (the same thing according to this author) sometimes steeple their hands, shake hands, and hold a hand on their hip. This does not equal a sign.
Masonic signs are not simple static postures, but involve very specific movements. It is always unclear from a still photo whether a person is making a sign.
Anyone who knows about freemasonry knows that freemasons generally do not want to be photographed making masonic signs. Most freemasons would not make their signs so openly, or specifically to be photographed. There are oaths to keep such things sacred.
The book also suffers from anti-masonic and anti-semitic bigotry. I'm sure that many learned religious scholors would take offense to the authors referral to Kabbalah as "Jewish black magic".
The factual errors are also astonishing. I wasn't even born when the first moon landing occurred, and yet I know that Buzz Aldrin was not the first person on the moon (as the author states).
While there may be some overlap between the historical Illuminati and the freemasons, the two are not the same. This suggestion comes mostly from far-right fundamentalist Christians who disagree with any organization involved with spiritual education that does not force it's members to accept Christ as personal savior. Freemasonry requires only a belief in God, while Illuminism essentially was anti-religious.
The author (like so many other fundamentalist propagandists) try to tie Freemasonry and Illuminism to devil-worship. Again, the idea is that anything occult (hidden) is black-magic, anthing that is non-christian is devil worship.
Some of the photos here might be of leaders who were signalling membership in a secret society. However, those pictures are lost in a sea of falsehood. Also, we don't necessarily know which secret society (there are many).
 Interesting Book With Lots of Pictures But Some Errors September 19, 2007
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I bought this book with some reservation. I read a review where the person said Texe Marrs made some mistakes and needs to do a better job with research. Looks like that reviewer might be right. But I had seen Texe Marrs on Google Video and liked him, so I bought the book anyway.
I had great fun flipping through the pictures until I had a "hey, I know that guy" experience on page 174. There I found a piece on Neil Wilson, the former President of the Seventh-day Adventist Church (1979-1990). According to Texe Marrs, in this very blurry picture, Wilson is exchanging an "indisputable" Masonic handshake. He goes on to argue that the "Leadership of the Seventh-day Adventist Church (SDA) is heavily Masonic." That is not true.
Maybe Wilson was a Freemason in disguise, and maybe he wasn't. I don't doubt that some Freemasons have infiltrated the SDA Church... but that last statement goes too far. There is no way the leadership of the church is "heavily" Masonic (my Dad until recently was one of the SDA Vice-Presidents... and he is no Freemason).
As for all those "anti-Christian" groups you mention like "Americans United" that the SDA leadership deals with... here is why they do:
SDA's keep the Seventh-day Sabbath (Saturday) and are DEEPLY concerned about religious bigotry. They don't ever want the government telling them they have to go to church on Sunday. They know they are a minority in this country and are aware of the "Blue Laws" that used to exist. They are also keenly aware that notwithstanding the last century or two of American history, the history of the human race is one of religious bigotry and persecution. So they work with organizations that promote religious liberty and the separation between church and state. That Mr. Marrs, is the ONLY reason why SDA's deal with these groups.
The above is just one example of the errors I found in this book. Here's another... the picture on page 137 showing actor Pierce Brosnan supposedly giving the Devil sign is also wrong. The devil sign requires two fingers to be down. Brosnan clearly has his three middle fingers down and the palm of his hand is facing in, not out like is given with the devil sign. My advice Mr. Marrs: Get out of Texas once in a while... maybe visit Hawaii... then you would be able to recognize the Hawaiian "hang loose" sign when you see it. If you don't have time to go to Hawaii... may I recommend your book "Codex Magica" where on page 123 you posted an article from the "Cleveland Plain Dealer" newspaper which clearly demonstrated the "hang loose" sign which you misidentified just a few pages later on the hand of Pierce Brosnan!
Need I say more? And I haven't even started reading the book yet... just browsing through pictures! The bottom line though- this book has too many interesting pictures to ignore. If you buy it, take it with a grain of salt. And for the record, I still like Texe Marrs.
