Raelian Hexagram

There was a chapter about Rael in the Wikipedia entry on Star of David but I asked the editor to transfer it to the hexagram entry and he did. Since I want to show what the Star of David IS NOT I decided to include it here in my collection, but remember that this shape here doesn't have the proper name and doesn't have any Jewish meaning.

Kiel Bryant wrote to me:

Creepy, isn't it? A bit ironic that my icon should be an Egyptian emblem . . .Anyhow: you do appear enchanted by the Star of David, and rightly so, it is a mesmerizing shape. My suggestion, as appreciator of art to kindred spirit, is that you look up "entrelac" and specifically -- though its title may repel you -- "Islamic entrelac." You should, doing this, discover varieties of David's star of such beauty and complexity and ultimately grace as to overwhelm.

Acronyms

Sometimes we see Hebrew letters in the middle of the Star of David which are acronyms of the Hebrew words "here is buried" (Po Nitman). As I already mentioned in earlier postings the middle of the Star of David is frequently a frame for "important Jewish things" and this is surely one of them...

Too Long Stripes

The long blue stripes make the Star of David seem smaller than it should be. I guess it is illegal to hang such long flags since it is a violation of the specifications of the "Flag Law".

This is inside the Anshei Minsk Synagogue in Kensington Market in downtown Toronto. The Minsk is an operating orthodox synagogue today.
I visted during Doors Open Toronto, during which many places open their doors to the general public. I took this photo on the Sabbath (Saturday), which I really shouldn't have.

The hexagonal frame of the Star of David is used sometimes to store "important Jewish things" like the name of God, Jerusalem, Zion, and in this case for a memory plate. Some day I'll publish a list of all the "important Jewish things" I found inside this frame...

Masonic Star of David

Hexagram in a Masonic Temple in Philadelphia among many other Masonic symbols. I guess it appears here because Free Masons relate themselves to King Solomon. The hexagram was called Solomon's Seal for a few hundred years before it got the name Star of David...

Full and Empty

"Full" small Star of David inside a larger ordinary "empty" Star of David (where the triangles are seen clearly) inside a circle on a gravestone in St. Marx (Friedhof) cemetery in Vienna, which was used from 1784 until 1874

High Is Low

The highest point of the inner colorful Star of David indicates the lowest point of the outer white Hexagram. This is so poetic...
