| Description |
English: Bohemian Grove camp view in 1918 including a Native American teepee - in Muir Woods, Monte Rio, California. A hand drawn depiction of a Native American female that appears to be naked, is facing a drawing of an owl. The owl is the Bohemian Club's preeminent symbology representing Moloch, a demon associated with child sacrifice and Qliphoth.
The Bohemian Club Owl came to become incorporated into a ritualistic ceremony known as the Cremation of Care that is documented to find its origins as early as this year 1918 at the Grove. A fifteen page staple bound booklet entitled CEREMONY OF THE CREMATION OF CARE was produced by the Bohemian Club Grove dated July 27, 1918. Copies today can be found in the inventory of rare book dealers. Essentially the work is the printed script for the celebrated Ceremony of the Cremation of Care that has become an annual event produced by the Bohemian Club of San Francisco. The booklet consists of 15 pages measuring 5 3/4" X 8 1/2." The cover was of a dark brown paper and the play had a World War I theme. In time a 40 foot tall hollow owl statue made of concrete representing "knowledge" became the center point in the ritualistic ceremony that today is witnessed by approximately 2,000 to 2,500 Club attendees yearly. To the right of the tent drawing shown can be seen a hanging tarpaulin which shows several hand drawn naked males proceeding toward the tent opening. Former United States President Richard M. Nixon attended Bohemian Grove in 1970 and apparently on other occasions, can be heard commenting on Bohemian Grove in a well known official audio recording. During the recording Nixon stated: "Now Bohemian Grove.... that I attend from time to time,,, but it is the most faggy goddamned thing you can ever imagine.... the San Francisco crowd that goes there.... it's just terrible!" At the lower left can be seen imprinted into the photo the following: "Bohemian Grove Cal. 1918." Image depicts one of two full image panels comprising an original silver bromide stereoview photograph. |
