Masonic & Occult Symbols Illustrate

Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) also uses the circle and triangle in their logo. Bill Wilson, a co-founder of AA, explained their logo. He said: “The circle stands for the whole world of A. A., and the triangle stands for A.A.’s Three Legacies: Recovery, Unity, and Service.” That doesn’t sound bad but then he added: “It is perhaps no accident that priests and seers of antiquity regarded this symbol as a means of warding off spirits of evil.”

What this symbol (with the triangle pointing upward, called a MAGIC TRIANGLE) actually represents is interesting. It is a “symbol of importance to WITCHES,” and “represents the protection of the ‘circle’ and the power of the triangle. It is also associated with the OCCULT and used to procure the services of DEMONS in various rituals.”

Al-Anon, a group based on the principles of AA, also uses a circle and triangle as their logo. The California Institute of Integral Studies’ logo has numerous triangles incorporated into it. A pamphlet from this group states: “The Integral Counseling Center offers the San Francisco community growth counseling based on an integral perspective which recognizes the individual as a body-mind-spirit continuum. Counselors have a wide variety of backgrounds in both Eastern and Western philosophy and psychology: psycho-dynamic, cognitive, psychosynthesis, yoga, meditation, Gestalt, Jungian psychology, Rankian therapy and dreamwork.”
