CHAOS / CREATIVITY
Where are these very Satan-y, very Masonic frescoes you ask?
Some Lodge? Or perhaps some freaky occultist residence?
Nonsense!
These are at the Bank of America HQ in Charlotte, North Carolina!
These images are loaded with occult imagery.
β¨
From VigilantCitizen.comβ¦
Painted by Benjamin Long, the paintings are said to revolve around the themes of βmaking/building, chaos/creativity, and planning/knowledge in a βdaring blend of abstract and realism, set off with touches of goldβ.
Although we normally read from left to right, there are clues within the frescoes hinting the viewers to read the paintings from right to left. The βplanningβ stage (visually represented by the fresco on the right) is normally the first step of any process so it would make sense to start from there.Β There is also alchemical symbolism hinting towards the chronology of the frescoes, so we will begin with the one on the right:
Right Fresco
The fresco on the right is dubbed Planning/Knowledge.Β An esoteric read of its symbolism reveals exactly what is being planned and what knowledge it is referring to.
Masonic Boy on Masonic Floor
We see here a young blond boy standing on a standard Masonic checkerboard pattern floor. His feet are placed at a 90 degrees angle, in accordance with Masonic initiation ritual:
βQ. On your return to the Lodge, where were you placed, as the youngest Entered Apprentice?
A. In the northeast corner, my feet forming a right angle, my body erect, at the right hand of the Worshipful Master in the east, an upright man and Mason, and it was given me strictly in charge ever to walk and act as such.β
β Malcolm C. Duncan, Duncanβs Masonic Ritual and Monitor
Seemingly underneath the boy are people dressed in business suits, seemingly strategizing while pointing at the Masonic boy. Does the boy represent the βnew generationβ?
This blond boy is very reminiscent of the blond boy featured at the center of one of the murals of the Denver International Airport.
Blond boy hammering a sword into a plowshare. Note that the boy is wearing a traditional Bavarian costume β¦ perhaps as in Bavarian Illuminati?
Burning Bush, Woman in Cube and Pyramid
Symbolism overload
Behind the boy is a tree on fire, which is a reference to the Burning Bush of the Old Testament. The Burning Bush is of great importance in Masonic ritual, especially for the 33rd degree, whose members are considered to be βnear the Burning Bushβ.
βIn the third Exodus it is record that, while Moses was keeping the flock of Jethro on Mount Horeb, βthe angle of Lord appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bushβ, and there communicated to him for the first time his Ineffable Name. This occurrence is commemorated in the Burning Bush of the Royal Arch Degree. In all systems of antiquity, fire is adopted as a symbol of Deity; and the Burning Bush, or the bush filled with fire which did not consume, whence came forth the Tetragrammaton, the symbol of Divine Light and Truth, is considered in the advanced degrees of Freemasonry, like the Orient in the lower, as the great source of true Masonic light; wherefore Supreme Councils of the Thirty-Third Degree date their balustres or official documents, βnear the B.B.β or Burning Bush, to intimate that they are, in their own rite, the exclusive source of all Masonic instructionβ.
β Albert G. Mackey, Encyclopedia of Freemasonry, Part 1
In the background is an Egyptian pyramid, the ultimate symbol of the Mysteries in occult teachings.
A strange feature of the painting is the woman apparently trapped inside a transparent cube, hanging from threads coming from the sky. Does she represent the common man, stuck in the confines of the material world (occultly represented by the cube) and manipulated by unseen the forces from above?
Stairs and Black Sun
Jacobβs ladder and a black sun
On the left of the image are stairs, apparently leading to the heavens, a classic symbol representing the path to illumination/Illuminati through the mysteries of Masonry.
A Masonic engraving depicting stairs leading from the Masonic floor to the βoutsideβ
In the sky is a black sun, another symbol of an esoteric significance. Hermetic traditions teach the existence of two suns, an invisible and etheric one made of pure βphilosophical goldβ and the material one, the only one the profane can perceive, known as the Black Sun.
In alchemy, the black sun (Sol niger) is the name of the result of the first stage of the Opus Magnum. The alchemical Magnum Opus (or Great Work) starts with the βblackeningβ β the calcination of crude metals β and ends with their transmutation into pure gold.
Today, the symbol of the Black Sun is mostly associated with esoteric Nazism and cults such as the Temple of Set. It is also found in odd places such as:
Bracken House, London. The Black Sun bears the face of Winston Churchill.
β¦and, once again, the Denver International Airport.
Floor design in the DIA depicting a black sun moving in front of the golden sun
The right fresco, therefore, seems to portray the first step of a βGreat Workβ that needs to be accomplished, as symbolically represented by the black sun. Men dressed in suits (one of them oddly looks like Adam Weishaupt),Β seem to be preparing a new generation of Masonic youth. Meanwhile, the βprofaneβ seem to be idling in a translucent cube, controlled by invisible puppeteers.
β¨
Middle Fresco
The middle fresco, Chaos/Creativity, depicts a turbulent transitional period. Many details within the painting describe this profound turmoil, which seems to be affecting all parts of society and civilization. We find military and religious figures, people protesting and much more.
Barbwires, nets, and soldiers on the streets tell the viewers that this period of turmoil is also one of oppression. The nun does not seem very pleased either.
At the left of the painting is a person wearing a biohazard suit, hinting at some kind of chemical warfare.
A person in a gas suit
For this reason, and many more, I find this painting very similar to one of the Denver Airportβs murals β¦ the most infamous one.
This mural of the DIA portrays a militaristic figure wearing a gas mask and oppressing an endless line of sad people. Chemical warfare, military repression, dead babies β¦ what is there not to like about this image?
If we look at the top of the fresco, we see translucent beings spinning with fire, perhaps implying that the turmoil is also happening on a metaphysical, cosmic or astral level.
Spinning naked bodies in a vortex of fire
This round fiery shape can also be likened to a sun. Its pale golden color and the transparency of its figures can be associated with the intermediate step of the great alchemical work named βWhiteningβ. Jung compared this step with daybreak, the preparation for the next and final stage, which is the sunrise, characterized by the color red. Which is, of course, the most prominent color of the left fresco.
β¨
Left Fresco
The fresco on the left is said to focus on the theme of βMaking/Buildingβ. The main figure of the fresco is a worker holding a shovel, contemplating the work done. In his back pocket is a red piece of cloth, a symbolic detail in the context of this image. There is indeed a great emphasis on the color red in this fresco, which, as mentioned above, is also the color associated with the final step of the alchemical Magnum Opus: Rubedo, the βRed Workβ.
In occult teachings, alchemical transformation can happen on numerous levels: a material level, where crude metals are transmuted to pure gold, but also on a spiritual and philosophical level, where the profane man becomes a βregenerated manβ. In secret-society lore, the entire world is considered to be the subject of alchemical transformation; it is said to be an imperfect plane needing to be βtransmuted into goldβ in order to mirror the heavens, in accordance with the hermetic axiom βAs Above, So Belowβ. Is a New World Order the βGreat Workβ of the occult elite?
Sleeping Giant
Is he dead or sleeping? And what does βEQβ mean?
An odd detail of the fresco is this man blending with the earth, apparently in deep sleep β¦ or is he buried? This is also reminiscent of the (unsettling) sleeping little boy on the DIA murals.

What Is The Meaning of the Frescoes?
Like most elitist art, the frescoes on display at the headquarters of Bank of America, the largest bank in America, tell a story intended to be decoded by those in the know. The frescoes seem to depict three stages of world transformation β planning, chaos, and achievement β and are color-coded to be analogous to the three stages of hermetic alchemy: Nigredo (blackness), Albedo (whiteness) and Rubedo (redness).Β The frescoes bear many resemblances to the murals of the Denver International Airport, which also depict progressive phases of a profound transformation of society after a period of intense turmoil.
The first fresco displays a wide array of occult symbols, some directly referring to Freemasonry. This is quite astonishing as the painting is in the lobby of the headquarters of the United Statesβ most predominant bank and not in a Masonic lodge β¦ but perhaps there is some overlap. Those who are βin the knowβ and initiated to the Mysteries are those who are qualified to accomplishing the planning process, which in this painting seem to be the men in suits, whose ties match the red and white checkerboard floor, and who make plans for the future generation, represented by the blond Masonic boy.
In the second fresco, civil unrest, riots, protests, and repression are all taking place. Historically, the masses only usually go into an outright revolt when their living conditions deteriorate significantly or when hugely unpopular policies get adopted. Does this piece refer to the loss of civil liberties and the rise of a police state? There is also a metaphysical aspect to the image, represented by the spinning naked bodies that appear as the sun, implying that the period turmoil is also happening on a cosmic level.
The last fresco gives a sense of βmission accomplishedβ, with the dominant figure surveying the work, while also conveying the message that βthe work is never totally doneβ as laborers are still hard at work in the underground. This is reminiscent of the movie Metropolis, where a class of workers silently slave away underground to sustain the eliteβs utopia.
In Conclusion
The Bank of America frescoes are yet another example of the eliteβs agenda being βhidden in plain sightβ. These giant images, on display for all to see, but designed to be understood by few, describe the philosophy of the elite rulers, their occult knowledge and their plans for the future.Β As it is the case for all works of art, it is possible to interpret these paintings on numerous levels and to come up with different conclusions. It is, however, difficult to ignore the recurrent themes found in theβSinister Sitesβ described on The Vigilant Citizen: prevalent occult symbolism, the heralding of a βnew eraβ,Β contempt for the profane masses, a celebration of repression and war, etc. When comparing the Bank of America frescoes with the art of the DIA and the Georgia Guidestones, we can find a definite consistency in their symbolism, their tone, and their message. This leads me to believe that the same group is behind all of those sites and many more. Whoever they are, we know a few things for sure: they are extremely rich, extremely powerful and they donβt really like you β¦ because you are not one of them.
