Phrygian MysteriesRitual
The hierophant of the Phrygian Mysteries is a representation of the Alpha and Omega, with power over the seven schools of the Mysteries.
Alpha And Omega
Alpha and Omega, symbolizing the Christian concepts of the beginning and the end, are personified as a Sublime One in the opening chapter of the Apocalypse. This figure represents the Supreme Being at the pinnacle of the spiritual hierarchy and symbolizes the complete development of humanity from the dawn of creation until the end of the earth's history. Described as the central symbol within a central triangle, Alpha and Omega also embody the divine trinity and God's omnipotence, reflecting the eternal and authoritative nature of the spiritual realm. Together, these symbols demonstrate the continuous and ultimate authority of the Supreme Being, bridging the temporal and spiritual planes.
