Sinister Sites – The Manitoba Legislative Building
May 5th, 2009 | By _Harm One | Category: Sinister SitesThe representatives of Manitoba’s population pass legislation in a magnificent building but few realize that it is entirely based on occult and masonic principles. The great amount of details in this recreation of Solomon’s Temple reveal the importance of secret societies and hermetic philosophies in today’s democracies. This article, written by collaborator Harm One, explores the numerous occults symbols in this public building. Comments in blue added by Vigilant.
There is no shortage of Gothic elements in North American architecture, in addition, an abundance of neo classical and esoteric designs from various periods are seen in a number of buildings, in any given city. But, Winnipeg, Manitoba, is home to a very unique architectural example of the masonic term, hidden in plain view. Just a few kilometers from the exact geographical center of North America, is Manitoba’s Legislative building (MLB) finished with with tyndall limestone, complete with marine fossils. It sits on 30 acres of parkland on Broadway, the outskirts of downtown Winnipeg.

It’s quite the spectacle to be seen from the outside alone, but upon exploration of the interior one finds the design to include an integration of Christian, Greek, Egyptian, Babylonian and Jewish imagery, combined in an alchemical fashion with the most ancient magic tradition of Hermeticism. Although for years we didn’t pay much attention to the building itself, the high pressure lighting around the MLB kept us hanging around as kids to abuse the lights; when you stare into them long enough your colorful view of the world is reduced to a strange, purple psychedelic effect, an adolescent activity known as “purple hazing”. Little did we know what this building actually represented, even though it looked us dead in the face for the most part. Only in 2006 did the degree of masonic influence incorporated in the MLB became mainstream news, with the Winnipeg Free Press and others who did extensive and exclusive reports, exposing countless numbers of sinister symbols while propagating it as a very positive and good intentioned project to “celebrate rebirth”. The dedication and show of power relating to Hermeticism throughout, is what I partially consider the most important symbolism in the MLB.
The "Golden Boy". Hermes is of first importance to Masonic scholars, because he was the author of the Masonic initiatory rituals, which were borrowed from the Mysteries established by Hermes. Nearly all of the Masonic symbols are Hermetic in character.
Solomon’s Temple – The Three Holy Rooms
The most interesting aspect of the MLB? Arguably it’s the fact the building is in proportion to the original Solomon’s Temple, according to researcher Frank Albo (FA) from the University of Winnipeg. The researcher studied the measurements and details of the MLB and concluded that all the proportions have been meticulously kept. The original Temple of Solomon was constructed during the 10th century BCE, and was eventually brought to ruins by the Babylonians in 586 BCE. A second temple would be built four hundred years later in the same location as the first, in Jerusalem, on the holy city’s highest point of elevation. It was the center of worship, and generally a meeting place for the Jewish people of Jerusalem. The original was designed by Hiram Abiff who presented the plans to King Solomon. Historically, masons place Solomon’s Temple in very high regard; it’s place in the spiritual hierarchy, and as an initiatory theater of thought. Upon entering the MLB from the front you will enter a great hall which is a perfect square, and each side is 66.6 feet long. According to Albo, the 666 is a reference to the occult work “De Occulta Philosophia” by Cornelius Agrippa. While the number 666 is usually associated with the beast of revelation 13, there are several different possible meanings. Most relevant to the MLB according to the media, its relation to the sun and its power of life; one finds when you add the numbers 1 through 36 together it adds up to 666. The significance of 36 being the number of constellations controlled by the sun.
Back to this hall, you are first greeted by two life sized bison statues, intricate in their detailing, with the intent to capture the protective magic of the bulls in ancient temples, they are believed to ward off evil by the ancients.

Going through the two pillars of Freemasonry and entering the Temple of Solomon
Right in between the bulls you find the grand staircase, bearing 3 flights of 13 steps each, of brown veined Italian marble.
Walking up the stairs you enter the level directly underneath the Golden Boy, the room with the dome ceiling which houses a circular alter and geometric wheel, surrounded by a tessellated marble border. An eight pointed star figures in the center of the lower room beneath the alter, known as the Pool of the Black Star. The star was also a symbol of Babylonian goddess Ishtar, it is directly aligned with the Statue of Hermes.
Rotunda situated right under the Golden Boy
One is to stand directly on the star to speak into the above alter and hear their voice transformed, a relay of the harmonics in a most amazing and chilling way creating a perfect harmonic 5th. This area of the MLB is also designed in accordance with a sacrificial chamber, one where the gods of the underworld received power through sacrifice, the departed souls, led by Hermes, to the underworld. Apparently the veined marble near the star is meant to be a metaphor for the blood of a sacrificial victim, according to Frank’s accounts. All of this in a room that’s perfectly centered underneath the upper dome, on top of which the Golden Boy sits and faces northward.

Moving across the hall to another room known as the lieutenant-governor’s reception room or what would be the holy of hollies in Solomons Temple. More representation of Hermes is found in this room, not only that, but when converted to masonic cubits the dimensions translate to 20 by 20 cubits, the same measurements stated in the first book of kings, in the Bible. Just above this room, on the outside, an Ark of the Covenant replica is sculpted in a central aerial position, in stone, and also in proportion to the biblical Ark of the Covenant which was kept in the temple.

On top of all the old church renaissance you still have the Golden Boy at the peak of the building, perhaps the most important aspect of all this: a shiny
and very impressive 17 foot bronze cast coated with real gold. The Golden boy is a metaphor for Hermes Trismigestus, the father of alchemy, occult philosophy and who taught the wisdom of light, stands on one foot gracefully with a torch in one hand and wheat in the other. Hoisted on the dome in 1919, he faces north, towards Winnipeg’s notorious North End. At night the statue shines just as much as when the sun is upon it. In the spiritual realm, the alchemical symbolism in the MLB holds weight as alchemy was often used to communicate more than just words. It’s the union of opposites and much more.
On the main tower that houses the dome, there are 4 groups of 3 sculptures of life sized figures, each one representing either earth, wind, fire and water, or they could be viewed as Science, Agriculture, Art and Industry. Not only are the four elements represented in the form of these life size groups, according to Frank Albo, the golden boy presides over the 4 elements for the purpose of “unifying” them and “transmuting them into gold”, another important process of alchemy.

Egyptian Motifs
The MLB also captures the deeper and darker magic of Egypt; two great sphinxes grace the roof of the main tower, one of which faces the rising sun, while the other one faces the setting sun, hidden in plain view, and in life size. The sphinxes also bare hieroglyphic inscriptions that translate to the name Thutmosis III. He is known to masons that Egyptians to be the most precise of magicians, and their lineage being claimed by the Rosicrucians. In the same area on the MLB, hieroglyphic references are also made to the sun god Re, with a hieroglyph that translates as reading “The everlasting manifestation of the sun god Re, the good god who gives life”. These kind of inscriptions are what’s to be expected on the walls of ancient tombs and temples, not hidden on the roof of a government building.
Secondary Features
Summing up the major secondary features included in the MLB : you have the two great sphinxes on the roof (which bear inscriptions of the sun god Ra), multiple pairs of life sized bison, the head of Medusa, cattle skulls and other apotropaic designs throughout including lion heads, various lamps and lights (symbolic in nature), one of which located in the rotunda represents Jesus, with twelve lights surrounding one central one, gold rose pedals throughout, male and female faces meant to symbolize the offspring of Hermes and Aphrodite (Hermaphroditos), a tree of life mural in the legislative chamber by Augustus Tack, sculpting by Georges Gardet (statue of Moses holding the Ten Commandments, and Solon of ancient Athens), sculptures by the Piccirilli Brothers, prepared by Albert Hodge, astronomical themes such as the re enaction of the procession of the equinoxes through optical illusion in the sanctuary. Certain construction dates were scheduled for days when the planets were aligned. In the park like setting surrounding the building, there are many clusters of lights, 3 perfectly
round bulbs in each cluster.

Bucranium - representing sacrificial Ox
Moses with...horns?
Does it represent Jesus and the twelve disciples or the Sun with the twelve signs of the zodiac? Either way, the total number of lights is 13, the sacred masonic number.

There are also various monumental statues on the property including Louis Riel, who is facing south and away from the building, on the south side. On the opposite side you find a monument of the queen, who is facing north, and various other figures around the yard.
An argument deeming it hypocritical that the practice of politics is taking place in a highly ecclesiastical temple replica is an argument that should be made, whether there’s any validation or even interest with the mainstream or general public is another question. Upon learning about the architectural details of the MLB, one could only imagine that it was designed specifically for practitioners of the occult arts on an eternal quest for knowledge, and to perhaps achieve divination through the physical and spiritual purification of beauty using experimental imagination, the union of opposites, and sexual magic. Regardless of all these possibilities it’s hard not to call it a morally uplifting experience, walking the halls and staircases of the MLB, transcendent in nature and spiritual were the effects of the designs, items throughout the halls brushed off on you ; the elegant furniture and sculptures, the ornamental decor/materials, different patterns, the apparent precision of the measurements, hieroglyphs and paintings, etc. As was the case with the original temples in Jerusalem, a sense of spiritual redemption is unquestionably felt throughout the building, having seen it myself.
The Architects and their Motives
Frank Simon is noted as the primary architect involved, a man who was heavily influenced by members of a masonic lodge called “Simple Hearts of the Polar Star”, which is underneath the wing of the Grand Orient of France. Simon originally had won a contest offered by the Manitoba government in 1911, but a shadow figure named Septimus Warwick actually has gotten the credit in Europe for working drawings of the building. Simon seems to be the front man for his masonic brothers. In the mind of Simon, execution of geometry in the building would rely on a divine miracle, and although the building was never completed due to financial problems and delays with World War I, having esoteric motifs conflict so intimately with Christian aspects makes for an undeniably transcending and sublime piece of architecture. In regards to why the building was built, Simon was quoted saying “Men and women cannot be happy or good in surroundings that are commonplace, ugly, uninspiring”. Using the “golden section” method which goes back to Vitruvius, Simon and his team achieve some perfection in the geometrical detailing, a certain sense of beauty that is undeniable. According to Albo, who no doubt has the deepest understanding of the characters involved in the conception of the building, Simon intended to produce with the MLB, a subliminal effect through the architecture that would “impel people towards virtues such as faith, hope, morality and charity”. But if this is true, is it safe to assume there are evil motives in the minds of men to go along with the positive ones? Experimental imagination and this kind of symbolic magic employed by Simon has everything to do with being successful, knowing yourself, and finding a higher path up above. But could be used for evil, voodoo, and sacrificial means as well. Being a pupil of Frank Albo’s, I gathered much information throughout my time in university, but ended up with more questions than answers. When it comes to possible motives for the construction of the MLB, an imaginative person could draw several sinister conclusions based on ecclesiastical connections and actual facts. Winnipeg is a highly masonic city, and is still active in that regard. It has also been described as a place with a high level of psychic energy. Creator of Sherlock Holmes Conan Doyle once said of Winnipeg “I came away with the conclusion that Winnipeg stands very high among the places we have visited for psychic possibilities”. Doyle was in Winnipeg attending a seance at a house where several master masons used to gather to summon the dead.
To Conclude
The sheer beauty and majesty of the Manitoba Legislative Building is certainly awe-inspiring. It is in perfect contrast with the modern trend of faceless and sterile buildings, solely conceived for practical purposes. After analyzing the symbols, one can however question the spiritual significance of the building. The sides of the great hall measure exactly 66.6 feet, 666 being the number of beast of the Revelation and the number commonly associated with Satan. The Pool of Black Star contains the eight-pointed star of Ishar, the Babylonian Goddess of sex, fertility, love and war. Her cult involved sacred prostitution and she was considered the “courtesan of the gods”. Ishtar is also a representation of Venus, which is referred to as the Morning Star – the other name of Lucifer. Another interesting symbol is the statue of Moses bearing horns on his forehead. Michelangelo has portrayed Moses in a similar manner at the Church of S.Pietro causing a great deal of controversy. While the profane are told that the horns were simply a result of a mistranslation of the Bible, their true meaning are revealed to occultists:
“So with horns, Michelangelo acclaimed Moses a man of power and station far greater than lawgiver of a local tribe. With horns he saluted him not only as one who had stood in the presence of God, and had realized, had become at-one with, his own divinity, but nobler far, as a man fulfilled who had returned — for some do not. Only the few come back, down the mountain, in order to teach and lead mankind.”
-Eloise Hart, Theosophical University Press
Horned Moses represents the man which has obtained divinity by his own means, through mastery of sciences and magic, spiritual attainment and knowledge, a concept embraced by the luciferian doctrine. Furthermore, the symbolic depiction of Jesus Christ as a Masonic Initiate reflects the esoteric concept of Christ as the “perfected man”. In other words, occultists believe that each can become his own Christ by going through the spheres of the Mysteries. Finally, the numerous ram heads carved inside and outside the building are quite reminiscent of the horned figure of Baphomet.
All these strange features lead us to wonder: who are governing our democracies and what is their true object of worship?

Hey. Nice article.
That picture of a Masonic initiate brought back a real flash from the past. When I was a kid, we saw a Russian cartoon on TV that you will find very interesting indeed. I found it on Youtube, and it’s completely mind-blowing now that I’ve found out about this sort of symbolism. The videos are in Russian, so I’m afraid the dialogue will escape most people. We saw it dubbed in Finnish, and it’s about a kid who runs into a mysterious man who takes him to a “Castle of Liars.” Check it out.

Thank you for posting this article. Moses had horns and hooves and he delivered his people from hell to earth. It’s all in the statues and paintings, they tell the story that’s been hidden for all these years.
Moses drank blood and ate of the Body. If you’ve ever studied OTO and Mr. Crowley you’ll know what that means.
The Ten commandments are not what you think they are people!
Moses, met the burning bush or as more well known… the God of war ARES.
It’s Alchemy, the way you take led and turn it into gold! You make a sword out of it and kill those who have the gold.
Why are there two tablets?
Because there are 2 set’s of rules.
One for the leaders of the world, and One for the Ewe.
The 10 we know of are the rules for control of the Ewe.
The 10 rules for the leaders are to do the exact opposite of the 10 rules given to us, as it gives the rulers of this world absolute power over us.
The 10 commandments for the rulers of Earth.
1. You shall have only one god above god… SET or Satan as they call him in the christian world.
2. You shall create an idol in any form from Hell and you shall worship it for I am a jealous God. (Set)
3. You shall use the name of God in Vain
4. On the 7ths day you shall work as your Ewe are idol.
5. Dishonor your mother and father for you shall live long in the land of Set.
6. You shall murder
7. You shall commit adultery.
8. You shall Steal
9. You shall bear false witness against your neighbor.
10. You shall covet your neighbor’s wife.
This is the reason they want to find the real tablets. Because who ever owns it, knows the truth.

In 1492, Chemor, chief Rabbi of Spain, wrote to the Grand Sanhedrin, which had its seat in Constantinople, for advice, when a Spanish law threatened expulsion.2 This was the reply:
” Beloved brethren in Moses, we have received your letter in which you tell us of the anxieties and misfortunes which you are enduring. We are pierced by as great pain to hear it as yourselves.
The advice of the Grand Satraps and Rabbis is the following:
1. As for what you say that the King of Spain obliges you to become Christians: do it, since you cannot do otherwise.
2. As for what you say about the command to despoil you of your property: make your sons merchants that they may despoil, little by little, the Christians of theirs.
3. As for what you say about making attempts on your lives: make your sons doctors and apothecaries, that they may take away Christians’ lives.
4. As for what you say of their destroying your synagogues: make your sons canons and clerics in order that they may destroy their churches. [Emphasis mine]
5. As for the many other vexations you complain of: arrange that your sons become advocates and lawyers, and see that they always mix in affairs of State, that by putting Christians under your yoke you may dominate the world and be avenged on them.
6. Do not swerve from this order that we give you, because you will find by experience that, humiliated as you are, you will reach the actuality of power.
(Signed) PRINCE OF THE JEWS OF CONSTANTINOPLE.”
2. The reply is found in the sixteenth century Spanish book, La Silva Curiosa, by Julio-Iniguez de Medrano (Paris, Orry, 1608), on pages 156 and 157, with the following explanation: “This letter following was found in the archives of Toledo by the Hermit of Salamanca, (while) searching the ancient records of the kingdoms of Spain; and, as it is expressive and remarkable, I wish to write it here.” — vide, photostat facing page 80.

Somebody should tell the author of this article and the guy in the video that 8 is also the number of Mercury, the occult, and alchemy. The 8-pointed star is also the symbol of Hermes and the Hermetic tradition.
Great web site, great knowledge! I knew that US is connected with occult and masonic traditions, but I have never expected it to be that far.
Dear author, I would like to translate your web site into Russian, can we discuss it?
The power of symbols is known to the Satanist who seek his power. That is why you see them emblazoned on to buildings, inside and outside. Statutes, and their 666 (Satan’s number) as they believe repetitive honor to their devil god will bring them his power and favors. What they don’t understand is that Satan is a created being of God and his time is short, therefore he will be destroyed along with his followers and forever tormented in the fires of hell.
go hermes………!!!
Good stuff but it might be a good idea to leave the horned Moses out.
When Moses came down from the mountain after seeing God, his face radiated as in rays shone from his head.
Now some bibles and therefore some statues translated the Hebrew word for Rays into horns.
Nothing sinister, just a misunderstanding.
In some peoples minds though it might make them reject all your work.
Hi Peter Charlton
Believe me, there’s more to the horns than a simple misunderstanding. Research their esoteric meaning and you’ll be astonished.
Moses with…horns?
That’s a common (mis)representation on paintings and statues of Moses. The Hebrew word used to describe the shining effect of Moses’s face after being in God’s presence both means “rays” and “horns.”
Anti-semite have been explointing “horns” for centuries. In fairness, I supose one could paint rays or a radiant face, butt horns have to be much easier to sculpt
i think it is imperative to take heed of the founding of Manitoba and the injustices on to the Native and Metis people durring the Red River Rebelion (1870’s) by both the Canadian Government and the Hudson’s Bay Company.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Riel
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_River_Rebellion
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_River_Colony
to then “crown” the land with this mystic alter seems beyond belief.
perhaps this adds another level to the historic importance of this location or was a way of ousting the energies of the Catholics who the government wanted to banish from the region.
in any case the story of the Red River Rebellion is a historical example of the lack of democracy and corporate oppression which has built this Canada into the Control state that it is today.
also it might be interesting to look in to the background of the Hudson’s Bay Company as they are one of the oldest corporation in the world founded in 1670. also from personal investigation their headquarters in Toronto Ontario includes many occult and masonic principles itself.

“Her cult involved sacred prostitution and she was considered the “courtesan of the gods”. Ishtar is also a representation of Venus, which is referred to as the Morning Star – the other name of Lucifer.”
That’s weird, because in Catholic school we used to sing a song about the Virgin Mary…I distinctly remember that it refered to her as the Morning Star. The verse: “Gentle woman, quiet light. Morning Star, so strong and bright. Gentle Mother, Peaceful Dove, teach us wisdom, teach us love.” (Just did a quickie search and the hymn was Hail Mary, Gentle Woman.)
Just a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg on your radar:
…”when one takes a decent look into history and sees the esoteric historical nature of Rome’s religion, you find that it is not Christianity, but it is a hybrid of Christian thought and doctrine seen and practiced from a “Magical World View”. It is another gospel, another christ, and for sure another spirit. What I found is that a person can actually trace the syncretisms. Roman Catholic abbott Joachim of Fiore (1135-1202) came up with the theory of the “Father” Time or Age, the “Son” Time or Age, and the “Spirit” Time or NEW AGE whereby man would return from his adamic fall to re-acquire supernatural immortality and be co-equal with God. This is cabalistic and androgenous thinking to be sure, but the audacity of Rome to issue a statement regarding the dangers of the NEW AGE when Rome itself has been covertly embracing the esoteric doctrines for centuries is equally absurd…”

Concerning the statue of Moses with horns, I remember the original trailer for the movie “The Ten Commandments”, where Cecil B. DeMille explains why Michelangelo’s statue of Moses had horns. The explanation was that the original word in Hebrew for both “horn” and “ray of light” is the same. This is something that I have not verified myself, but in any case, I believe the context of the biblical passage determines that “rays of light” was intended.
Wow, I am starting to understand that this satanic power is everywhere at this point. I guarantee you it’s all over Europe at least. Growing up there I was disillusioned with Christianity because I understood the hypocrisy of the churches. Now I know that the churches were infiltrated (the Catholic church never was Christian of course). I am starting to see the bigger picture thanks to websites like this. I am a Christian again, this time a real one.
The pagan Vatican and all the infiltrated fake churches don’t discredit the Bible, only the leaders of the church. There are real Christians and Jews who understand the Bible. It requires intelligence and (not blind) faith.

With regards to Moses having horns:
The hebew work Keren, which Michelangelo incorrectly translated, means both “rays’ (as in rays of light) and “horns”.
Michaelangelo picked the wrong translation. History happened. Whoop-de-do. Not quite satanic.
@ Victoria That is awesome that you were able to see thru the lies of the many Ancient Mystery Religion Cults (mainly the RCC) to the Truth of Christ and the Word of God!! My heart sings when I hear of testimonies about people who were once “Christian” then fell away due to the many False Religions then come back to the Truth of Christ with out the Pagan overtones so drenched in modern Christdom. Christ is the truth way and life and the only way to the Father and the Devil knows this so he has set up many False Religions to misdirect and to give Christ a bad name!!
You are absolutely correct when you say these False Churches do not discredit Christ but only themselves and their leaders. The Word of God is infallible and will never be destroyed no matter how Satan tries. It seems to me that MANY true believers of Christ are drawn to this website and post how the masses need to wake up from their slumber and see thru the lies of Satan to the Truth of Christ!!
May you and all who come to this site and read these comments be Blessed Abundantly with the Riches and Love of the Living God and Christ, and may those who have been disillusioned as Victoria once was with the False Churches and Pagan Doctrines of Man return to the Word of God and find that which you seek, The Truth of Christ!!!

ChildOfGod,
From your comments it seems that your belief in God is solely out of fear of eternal hellfire? Seems like if believers weren’t living in abject fear of judgement, they wouldn’t hesitate to see all the contradictions in the Bible, Koran, etc. and conclude that religious doctrine is simply a collection of fantastical stories interspersed with arbitrary proscriptions regarding food and sex. I find Vigilant’s work here fascinating from an historical/cultural point of view, but I don’t share much of the hysteria about satanism that most of the commenters seem to express, simply because he is a fictional character. I truly enjoy reading here, and haven’t commented until today, but felt compelled to do so now because all the right-wing evangelical crazies who post in the comments really ruin the experience for the rest of us.
Bible: Origin:
1300–50; ME bible, bibel < OF bible < ML biblia (fem. sing.) < Gk, in tà biblía tà hagía (Septuagint) the holy books; biblíon, byblíon papyrus roll, strip of papyrus, equiv. to býbl(os) papyrus (after Býblos, a Phoenician port where papyrus was prepared and exported) + -ion n. suffix
Actually the Moses with horns thing is due to a translation error in the Vulgate (Latin bible). The translation for the Hebrew word horns is the same as rays so when the translator wrote the book he used the word for horns instead of rays of light. So when Michelangelo sculpted Moses he read horns thus explaining Moses with horns. Just goes to show that not everything on this site is true and it’s basically the words of either a college student or some regular old blogger.
