Just browing the net, and I found this.

Good Lord, quoting the DaVinci Code? This thread has gone to hell.

i thought it was an interesting quote. i doubt it has much to do with lg15 but i don't know, this is kind of a silly thread anyway at this point isn't it? we're actually studying the tiny minutiae of the lg15 website banner. i mean c'mon. this is the height of boredom.

as for the greek symbols. i wonder why "thelma" in greek would appear anywhere on the site? when i saw them, my first thought was those symbols bree had to study way back when.

Thelema is a relegion that is very similar to Bree's religion. I'd provide a link where it has been discussed but there are just too many. You can do a search if you have a couple of hours to read through it, or you can read what is written on LgPedia http://www.lonelygirl15.com/lgpedia/ind ... le=Thelema

thank you! i feel sort of clueless these days. my brain just doesn't hold the information like it used to. once upon a time i could recite every episode of buffy the vampire slayer ever. i'm getting more and more involved with this story but my head--it hurts!

I think if some took time to look around the Religion threads, this one wouldn't need to be in existence.

The rose (Latin, rosa, in Greek, rhodon) also is a symbol that has a rich and ancient history. And like the cross, it can have paradoxical meanings. It is at once a symbol of purity and a symbol of passion, heavenly perfection and earthly passion; virginity and fertility; death and life. . . It is a symbol of transmutation - that of taking food from the earth and transmuting it into the beautiful fragrant rose. The rose garden is a symbol of Paradise. . . ancient Rome, roses were grown in the funerary gardens to symbolize resurrection. . .

The rose has also been used as a sign of silence and secrecy. The word sub rosa "under the rose" referring to the demand for discretion whenever a rose was hung from the ceiling at a meeting. In the Mysteries roses were sacred to Isis. It is also the flower of her son Harpocrates or younger Horus, the god of silence.

Numerologically, the rose represents the number 5. This is because the wild rose has 5 petals. And the petals on roses are in multiples of five. Geometrically, the rose corresponds with the pentagram and pentagon. . .

Everything keeps leading back to the Masons.
It was very easy to find. I googled "rose five pentagram"

So true!

This is the thread where I posted a link to the wikipedia article on sopdet:

http://www.lonelygirl15.com/forum/viewt ... c&start=15

Sopdet is a star which Bree mentions in her vlogs as she prepares for the ceremony.

Here is a quote from the article:

In Egyptian mythology, Sopdet was the deification of Sothis, a star considered by almost all egyptologists to be Sirius. . . Just after Sirius appears in the July sky, the Nile River begins its annual flood, and so the ancient Egyptians connected the two. Consequently Sopdet was identified as a goddess of the fertility of the soil, which was brought to it by the Nile's flooding. This significance led the Egyptians to base their calendar on the heliacal rising of Sirius.

The fact that Sopdet is a goddess of fertility and the soil, to me, explains the wheat. Wheat is a symbol for Demeter or Ceres too.
