As I was reading I couldn't...Interesting stuff. As I was reading I couldn't help but think of "The Graduation Ceremony" where a young person moves from the structure of school into "real life"/adulthood. It's all there: robes, funny hats, the intoning of names, the presentation of the certificate/scroll... all very occult-ish. I wonder if that particular ritual has its origins in Masonic traditions. I've never really noticed or thought about how weird all these customs are or how ancient. I've also heard that sitting around the table for a meal is supposed to symbolize sitting around the kill from a hunt, "come an' get it while it's hot!", the elder sitting at "the head" of the table... fascinatingly weirdness hidden in plain sight.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
