Mysterious Monuments: Encyclopedia of Secret Illuminati Designs, Masonic Architecture, and Occult Places Paperback – Illustrated, June 1, 2008

The pictures and commentary in this "encyclopedia" speak volumes about the history and significance of hidden or occult meanings. Although Codex Magica (his former book about occult symbols and signs) may have had some examples that were merely coincidental to masonic/occultic handsigns (think of the diablo handsign), the pictures in Mysterious Monuments of deliberately planned, well-engineered architecture and monuments leave much less room for coincidence.Some of the pictures in this book such as a Catholic church service in front of an all-seeing eye are sadly convincing that many innocent people don't know the meaning behind these symbols. Mysterious Monuments informs the reader of the history, significance and purpose of such monuments as the obelisk and all-seeing eye. For myself, reading through Mysterious Monuments accomplished what I believe it was intended to do-which is to stir people up to think critically about this world. Why does the New Age movement parallel Albert Pike and Helena Blavatsky? Why did Henry Ford receive a high award from Adolf Hitler? Why did the US let German scientists continue their work with Operation Paperclip? At the very least, this book started prompting me to ask questions such as, "Why isn't the Washington Monument direct in its visual representation. Of all the boundless creative possibilities, why was an obelisk chosen?"Obviously there is a deeper level in the world than is portrayed across popular culture and Mysterious Monuments is a great place to get a solid visual reference on many of the deeper/hidden thoughts and intentions that are encoded in architecture.

Excellent book. Great info and lots of pictures to prove what he talks about. This is the best book I have read on the subject. Worth buying you will not be disappointed. The book is from a Christian perspective. I like how he backs up what he says with all the evidence by pictures.

Tex Marre has done it again. In this book he shows how satanic forces are building architectural talismans (magic charms) to worship their deity (Satan), and help bring his kingdom into the world. If you want to understand modern trends, this book and his other book, Codex Magica are must reads.

We live in a world of symbols--on all sides. But no one points them out and they remain invisible to our everyday awareness. Because of this book,I cannot look at buildings and monuments ever again without trying to understand the language it is speaking to my mind.While we all know that Christian symbols are being banned from the public arena, I now see the result as we are left surrounded with pagan gods. This book will explain that mystery to you.

Thank you for a great deal...full of pics!!!

Makes you look at our cities in a different darker light. Must read for christians who have an interest in the physical manifestation of fallen man's intellect through architecture. Or theory thereof. Now I think i understand why we haven't evolved more architecturally. Still following classical styles keeps us in the dark. Innovation, breaking away from the past and it's symbology should be encouraged to new wave of Christian builders that celebrates life, love and the true light of the world. That is of course if they can get them approved through the existing establishment. In time....

This read is a eye opener.For me it's a fun read.There is a spiritual warfare going on between Good and Evil.Texe Marrs exposes some of the obvious elements.Very Thought Provoking!

It is great to have someone like Texe Marrs informing us of what's going on out there. Many people still don't believe of the pagan horrors and conspiracies that are going on in the world. Excellent book and LARGE, too!
