Ophiolatreia: An Account Of The Rites And Mysteries Connected With The Origin, Rise, And Development Of Serpent Worship

Ophiolatreia: An Account Of The Rites And Mysteries Connected With The Origin, Rise, And Development Of Serpent Worship

Hargrave Jennings
0/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
“Ophiolatreia,” is an account of the rites and mysteries connected with the origin, rise and development of serpent worship, delving into Hinduism, Druidism, Greek lore, the Roman Empire, Egypt , and Mesoamerica, detailing a multitude of serpent-related rites, ruins, and religions; forming a serious study on the esoteric and occult significance of snake, sun and phallic worship. Students will wish to compare this to corresponding volumes in The Golden Bough 12 Volume Set and to Kenneth Grant's The Magical Revival.
Although the book is officially anonymous, it is believed to have been written by the 19th century Freemason, and Rosicrucian occultist Hargrave Jennings as part of his privately printed series of books titled “Nature Worship and Mystical Series” in which he developed his highly controversial theory of “Phallism”, the belief that all religious traditions have their common origin in the worship of the sun, which Jennings believed was symbolized throughout the ancient world by pictures and carvings of both male and female genitalia.
This edition also includes an obscure article referenced in the main “Rough Notes on the Snake Symbol in India” by J.H. Rivett-Carnac, along with original illustrations by Orlee Stewart.
