FIRST OF ALL, the star of David is not used here properly.
What is used is a Pentagram where someone did not draw correctly on those images. Each point touches a
letter, thus spelling out m-a-s-o-n. Do a little more research associating the INVERTED PENTAGRAM.
The star of David would not be used by such an organization when it is established for Judaism.
Then Pentgram is clearly used for Satanic and Freemason practices. So let's not get the two
symbols confused here.
Inverted Pentagram
The pentagram may be inverted with one point down. The implication is of spirit subservient to matter, of man subservient to his carnal desires. The
inverted pentagram has come to be seen by many pagans as representing the dark side and it is abhored as an evil symbol. Fundamental christians,
indeed, see any form of pentagram as such. However, these are recent developments and the inverted pentagram is the symbol of Gardnerian second degree
initiation, representing the need of the witch to learn to face the darkness within so that it may not later rise up to take control. The centre of a
pentagram implies a sixth formative element - love/will which controls from within, ruling matter and spirit by Will and the controlled magickal
direction of sexual energies. This is another lesson of initiation.
The Pentagram As A Christian Symbol
Up until medieval times, the five points of the pentagram represented the five wounds of Christ on the Cross. It was a symbol of Christ the Saviour.
This is in stark contrast to today where the pentagram is criticized by modern Fundamentalist Christians, as being a symbol of evil.
The church eventually chose the cross as a more significant symbol for Christianity, and the use of the pentagram as a Christian symbol gradually
ceased.
