In Germany at the turn of the century and particularly after WW I many secret societies developed. One of these groups was the Vril Society.
In 1917 four people met in a cafe in Vienna. There was one woman and three men. The woman was a ‘spiritual medium’. They met under a veil of mystery and secrecy.
They discussed secret revelations, the coming of the new age, the sphere of destiny, the magical violet black stone, and making contact with ancient peoples and distant worlds.
Their source of power was the Black Sun, an infinite beam of light which though invisible to the human eye is real and there.
The Vril emblem was the ‘Black Sun’ - a secret philosophy thousand of years old provided the foundation on which the occult practitioners of the Third Reich would later build. The Black Sun symbol can be found in many Babylonian and Assyrian places of worship. They depicted the Black Sun - the godhead’s inner light in the form of a cross. This was not much different from the German’s Knight’s Cross.
Reportedly initiated by cutting an apple in half and concentrating on the core of the apple, the Vril Society claimed that they could communicate with an alien race called Vril-ya or Vrillerinnens.
If you look closely at the inside of an apple, you will see the seeds form the shape of a star.
A five-pointed star embedded within a circle. We've seen that before.
A pentacle (or pantacle in Thelema)[1] is an amulet used in magical evocation, generally made of parchment, paper or metal (although it can be of other materials), on which the symbol of a spirit or energy being evoked is drawn. It is often worn around the neck, or placed within the triangle of evocation. Protective symbols may also be included (sometimes on the reverse), a common one being the five-point form of the Seal of Solomon, called a pentacle of Solomon or pentangle of Solomon.[2] Many varieties of pentacle can be found in the grimoires of Solomonic magic; they are also used in some neopagan magical traditions, such as Wicca, alongside other magical tools.
The words pentacle and pentagram (a five-point unicursal star) are essentially synonymous, according to the Online Oxford English Dictionary (2007 revision), which traces the etymology through both French and Italian back to Latin, but notes that in Middle French the word "pentacle" was used to refer to any talisman. In an extended use, many magical authors treat them as distinct. In many tarot decks and in some forms of modern witchcraft, pentacles often prominently incorporate a pentagram in their design.
There is a specific differentiation between pentacle and pentagram within Wicca and other re-constructionist systems. Namely, a pentacle refers to a pentagram circumscribed by a circle. This form of pentacle is formed upon a disk which may be used either upon an altar or as a sacred space of its own. The pentacle is representative of the Earth in occult usage.
