Feng Shui has proven itself in many of it's methods, and I have personally witnessed it on a few occasions. The ancient eastern practice basically focuses on the placement of objects, which allows 'chi' energy to flow through your environment. Same can be said as to what the 'Masons' set forth to do when creating a city, They can manipulate the placement of buildings and structures to set a certain frequency, or energy throughout the entire city based on it's design. Now looking at symbols , Aren't they also mostly an arrangement and placement of objects? Carl Jung's work on archetypes Comes to mind....
Interesting to note, that the 'Yin-Yang' symbol is both a Freemasonic and a ancient eastern symbol...☯ :rolleyes:

Oh, and the 'BP' Lotus, (or in my case a monkey anus) has 72 petals.There are 72 different words that refer to 'god' throughout the world.
GOD=G.O.D.=Gulf Oil Disaster......:D

No not really. Its mostly speculative, and vaguely paranoid.

A pyramid can sometimes just be a pyramid, same with an eye or butterfly or chequered floor. There doesn't always have to be meaning attached.

However, there will always be the "Look how blatant they're being!" threads/posts regarding a celeb or some such, when half the time, I would suggest, they have absolutely no idea.

Not saying theres nothing in Symbolism at all, but it gets put on far too high a pedestal than it deserves.
