Pagan “God Self” Icon Found Worldwide Rewrites History, Reveals Lost Golden Age

A new discovery challenges―if not rewrites―ancient history by showing how the world’s first cultures mysteriously shared the same religious icon. From the Egyptians to the Assyrians, the pre-Incas to the Europeans, the icon is ubiquitous. Is it the lost symbol of a forgotten Golden Age religion that flourished globally in the remote past? How can it not be?
For several decades, mainstream scholars have insisted that the world’s first civilizations arose separately and independently.
But an amazing new find now casts serious doubt on their theory.
It shows how ancient cultures worldwide―cultures that scholars insist evolved independently―actually followed the same global spiritual system or Universal Religion, the central icon of which has now been found to be common amid their ruins.

The Icon Found In Ruins Worldwide
The religious icon is shown in the photos below.
Note the parallel pose:
This same religious icon exists in the ruins of the world’s most ancient cultures―an astonishing parallel undiscovered and undocumented by academia!
With both arms outstretched in opposite directions (right and left) a single god or goddess holds “twin objects” in each hand, symmetrically.
These objects are usually animals, often serpents, but sometimes vegetation or magical staffs. The artwork is almost always perfectly symmetrical, just like the icon’s pose.
If ancient cultures evolved separately, as scholars tell us, then how is this same religious icon present worldwide?
This stunning new discovery challenges mainstream academic history.
It strongly suggests ancient cultures did not evolve separately, as scholars tell us; on the contrary, ancient cultures worldwide were “united” in their spiritual beliefs, most probably the result of a “shared cultural heritage” stemming from the prehistoric era.
But “united” how? A “shared cultural heritage” how?
Did a “Golden Age” of humanity once exist in our remote past, as the Greeks, Hindus and others claimed?―a kind of “Tower of Babel” era, when the world was one speech and one tongue?
Was this icon, along with the spiritual wisdom it signifies, “inherited” from this Golden Age?
(For further evidence of this Golden Age and Universal Religion, see SEE MY TRIPTYCH DISCOVERY HERE.)
“Lord Of The Animals” & “Staff God” Titles
Interestingly, the icon has been partially recognized by scholars of Old World cultures and New World cultures alike.
OLD WORLD
Among scholars of Old World cultures the icon is called:
NEW WORLD
Among scholars of New World cultures the icon is called:
Despite recognizing the icon in their respective disciplines, Old World scholars and New World scholars have:
(a) failed to recognize the icon’s presence worldwide
(b) failed to understand the ubiquitous meaning the icon holds worldwide
(c) failed to connect (a) and (b) and thus remain unaware that THE ICON IS THE CHIEF SYMBOL OF A LOST ANCIENT UNIVERSAL RELIGION once known worldwide
Just as the simple crucifix conveys a complete metaphysical doctrine expressing complex themes like “sacrifice,” “life,” “death,” and “resurrection,” likewise this Lord of the Animals / Staff God icon encodes a single multifaceted metaphysical doctrine or Universal Religion.
This religion relates eternal spiritual and perennial truths regarding who we are, where we came from, why we’re here, and where we’re going, as we’ll see in a moment.
For a more penetrating explanation, read my new book Written In Stone (an entire chapter is devoted to this amazing new archaeological discovery).
This last depiction is interesting.
Called “Rebis,” this mythological figure has been featured in alchemical texts during the past few centuries.
The Rebis’ right hand is associated with the sun and left hand with the moon.
The Rebis additionally holds a “compass” tool in the “solar” (right) hand balanced by a “square” tool in the “lunar” (left) hand.
This is important.
When combined, the compass and square form Freemasonry’s chief symbol:
Likewise, the square, since it draws a square or material symbol, denotes our “material” nature.
Holding the compass and square is thus a reminder that when we are man we are not just material (body) we are spiritual (soul) too; we are part human, part divine.
- The eternal “spiritual” (soul) part of us reflects solar qualities―right, yang, masculine, give, light, eternal, hot.
- The temporary “material” (body) part of us reflects lunar qualities―left, yin, feminine, receive, dark, temporary, cold.
Think about this for a moment.
We know we are human, of course. We see this in the mirror each day. But divine too? Are we really divine, eternal, immortal…as well as human, temporary, mortal?
The answer is yes.
Man is a combination of human (moon) and divine (sun).
The six-pointed star symbol directly above the head of the Rebis is a symbol of the integration of these opposing forces (sun and moon) and their balance in the Rebis.
And THIS is the message of the Rebis!!!
It’s an instruction that teaches us to integrate our own opposing forces in order to transcend the body and discover the divine eternal Self within/above.
The Rebis is a revelation and an affirmation of our own divinity and eternity―same as Masonry’s chief symbol:
This eternal divine nature is not readily apparent given the limitation of our five senses (see, touch, hear, taste, smell).
Hence, the message of the Rebis is a message that we need to hear because it’s an explanation of who we really are inside.

OLD WORLD
Among scholars of Old World cultures the icon is called:
- Lord of the Animals
- Master of Animals
- Mistress of Beasts
- Mistress of the Animals
- Mistress of Wild Animals
- Potnia Theron
“The Lord of the Animals (also known as Master of Animals) is a generic term for a number of deities from a variety of cultures…They sometimes also have female equivalents, the so-called Mistress of the Animals. The implication being these all have a Stone Age precursor…”
—Wikipedia
NEW WORLD
Among scholars of New World cultures the icon is called:
- Staff God
“The Staff God is a major deity in Andean cultures. Usually pictured holding a staff in each hand…his other characteristics are unknown, although he is often pictured with snakes in his headdress or clothes. The oldest known depiction of the Staff God was found on some broken gourd fragments in a burial site in the Pativilca River Valley…and carbon dated to 2250 BC. This makes it the oldest image of a god to be found in the Americas.”

The solar compass is held in the right hand and the lunar

form the supreme symbol of Freemasonry.

Freemasonry’s logo, the Compass and Square, is a sign of the
union of your (temporary physical) body and (eternal spiritual)
soul, both of which constitute you while you are human.
Did you know you were eternal and spiritual?
union of your (temporary physical) body and (eternal spiritual)
soul, both of which constitute you while you are human.
Did you know you were eternal and spiritual?
“There is one sign which has never changed its meaning anywhere in the civilized world—the Compass and the Square. A sign of the union of the body and soul.”
—Deman Wagstaff, Wagstaff’s Standard Masonry (1922)
The Rebis is a symbol of the higher spiritual Self, the “god Self,” within each one of us, insofar as it is a revelation to us concerning our eternal divine nature.“…the compasses stand for…the spiritual side of man, while the square appertains to the material…”
—J. S. Ward, Interpretation of Our Masonic Symbols
This eternal divine nature is not readily apparent given the limitation of our five senses (see, touch, hear, taste, smell).
Hence, the message of the Rebis is a message that we need to hear because it’s an explanation of who we really are inside.
