The idea of the rainbow bridge, the emphasis on diversity, can be seen uniting earth and air – lodges with each other – the lower and higher nature of humanity. This is the single most important proposition we adopted from this Finnish occultist.

This is an old esoteric idea, stressed especially by Pekka Ervast: that which appears as evil Satan, proud Lucifer, is actually a mask, behind which is hidden an extremely high kind of entity. The rainbow bridge touches heaven and earth and Lucifer, who is usually understood as the angel of pride, is, in this emblem, taken as an entity rising above one’s pride, turning it to redeem oneself and humankind. Lodge Lucifer has an undrawn but envisioned picture 1, as a kind of motto, where the angel Lucifer places his crown onto the rainbow bridge for the glory of God, to serve human beings. It might be good to first remind ourselves about these emblems. In both, it is used for this work of connecting. The emerald of the Devil, which in itself appears separating, is featured in the emblems or symbolic ideation of the lodges Lucifer and Graal. The rainbow, especially the rainbow as a bridge, is a symbol of connection.


The rainbow bridge and the emerald of the Devil are together a twofold symbol, or a cluster of symbols, which, in my presentation, is especially related to the beginning of Polyharmonia and the uniting work in the Star of Azazel’s constitution.
