Some regarded them as the most devilish conspiracy, some believe they were the guardians of mankind during troubled times. Anyhow, Masonic movement have encountered the era of globalization and they let some secrets and habits go online in media.
Nowadays those, who are fascinated by Freemasonry, can buy some jewels resembling to the mysterious objects worn by true adepts. You won`t believe it, but they are very popular among men clients and they exorbitant price (about 1, 200$) for a single jewel. Why? It`s the legend behind them, which sells good. Let`s examine a little bit these mysterious items.
If your boyfriend in passionate by Freemasonry and you think of a Masonic jewel as a gift for him, make sure you find the hammer to break the piggy: these jewels are more expansive, so you will need all your savings. The cheapest seem to be a Masonic ring of 800$ and the most expensive will reach the level of 1, 500, 000$. As a woman this will sound ridiculous, as they are produced by a controversial company “Harvey & Otis” and they look quite equal as design, so what`s the deal with the price?
You should know that in Freemasonry there are levels of enlightenment and for each of them there is a special jewel, especially rings as in old tradition of kings. Those rings are adorned with sacral symbols, which are to be discovered after you read even a best-seller on this phenomenon. In short lines, we talk about yellow gold massive rings with big inscriptions either on black texture or white one.
As you can suppose, your feminine intuition got the point: black is for the initiates and white for the masters, those who acceded to the enlightenment of high spirits in universe.
The symbols are very hard to understand, but we generally can understand that a crown talks about a master in Freemasonry, a shining star with amazing beams talks about a lodge`s master, a triangle about energies received from universe`s spirits, an eagle is the symbol of the supreme force and balance in universe, a star laying on a half-moon says the story of rediscovering inner balance, a half-moon torn by a sword symbolizes the danger existing in every situation, a possible break in the hard won balance.
The same symbols can be found also on Masonic pocket watches, a little bit more accessible as price (about 120, 000$). Pocket watches were a symbol of nobles in the recent centuries and as adepts of Freemasonry are dedicated to past and balance and were also infiltrated in intellectual groups of that times, they couldn't leave apart these precious objects.
