There is strange Qabbalistic legend concerning Hiram, that he was the Spirit of Fire. , and that among his ancestors was the immortal Tubalcain, who invented the forge and first tempered metals. According to this legend, the masterpiece of Hiram’s handiwork was to be the Molten Sea. But three disgruntled craftsmen secretly poured water into the mold. When the taps of the furnace were opened and the flaming metal ran into the mold, a great explosion took place. Hiram thereupon plunged through the Molten Sea into the center of the earth where dwelt his fiery ancestor, the first worker in metals. In addition to the base metals of the planets, Hiram cast into the Molten Sea the golden crown of Melchizedek, and the silver sickle of Queen Sheba.

The three Grand Master become the Causal Triad posited by the initiate philosophers as the triune foundation of existence. King Solomon (center) signifies the one Eternal and Unchangeable Divinity who is the Grand Master of the Lodge of the Universe; King Hiram of Tyre (right), cosmic resources, or the energies which continually flow from the sphere of causation into the sphere of effect; Hiram Abiff (left), the Widow's Son, universal activity -- the Demiurgus or Fabricator, of the world, the Master of Workmen.

Here is depicted the Supreme Hierophant, Master of the double Holy Empire of the superior and the inferior universes. The ancient emblem of equilibrium consisted of an androgynous body is surmounted by two heads, one male and the other female, wearing a single imperial crown. That being alone is perfect in which all opposites are reconciled, and this state of perfection is appropriately typified by the two heads of equal dignity. Hence the double-headed eagle is reserved as the emblem of completion, for it signifies the Philosopher’s Stone, the ultimate soul condition, and that absolute and transcendent perfection which arises only from the fullest unfoldment of the latent potentialities within the individual.

The pelican feeding its young from a self-inflicted wound of its own breast is accepted as an appropriate symbol of both sacrifice and resurrection. To the Christian mystic the pelican signifies Christ, who saved humanity (the baby birds) through the sacrifice of His own blood. In the Mysteries the pelican may also be considered as representative of the sun, who rays (blood) are the life of the seven philosophical planets depicted as the pelican’s brood, and the pelican represents the resurrection of the candidate from the dead. The mother bird signifies those divine institutions which possess the secret doctrine which is the spiritual life of man.

The Philosopher’s Stone is an ancient symbol of the perfected and regenerated man whose divine nature shines forth through a chain of purified and unfolded vehicles. As the rough diamond is dull and lifeless when first removed from the balck carbon, so the spiritual nature of man in its “fallen” state reveals little, if any, of its inherent luminosity. Just as in the hands of the skillful lapidary the shapeless stone is transformed into a scintillating gem from whose facets pour streams of varicolored fire, so upon the lathe of the Divine Lapidary the soul of man is ground and polished until it reflects the glory of its Creator from every atom.
