Throughout the ages there have always been initiates, artists and mystics who knew that Jesus was not born as ‘the Son of God’, but had experienced a kundalini awakening, after which he was one with his Divine Father. The Gospel writers have hidden this spiritual truth in their texts in inventive ways, including the use of imagery and wordplay (see my books). Because of the rigid attitude of the church, the truth could not be spoken aloud, but underground, through esoteric groups such as the Freemasons, it found its way onto the canvas.

The CADUCEUS, the staff of the god Hermes, is the classic symbol for a kundalini awakening. The staff itself represents the spine with the kundalini energy flowing through it. The two serpents that wind up along the staff represent the duality that melts into one during the awakening process. Energetically, the two serpents represent the ida- and pingala-nadi, which flow along the spine, from the pelvis to the head. During the final phase of the kundalini process, these two energy channels merge at the sixth chakra (in the forehead). The two wings at the top of the caduceus represent the expansion of consciousness that results from this awakening process.

THE SIGN OF THE SACRED MARRIAGE (two fingers together: 2=1) is incorporated in many paintings, in one form or another, often in combination with other esoteric symbolism. This hand gesture refers to a fusion of the polar energies/duality, and with this to a process of kundalini awakening.
