Angelic Society
|
The Angelic Society (Société Angéliqué, Le Brouillard) is a purported secret society behind many esoteric phenomena and movements (including the mystery of Rennes-le-Château the Priory of Sion, the Thule Society and other shadowy things of their ilk).
The society's tradition was supposedly disseminated in cryptic form, and its membership has been postulated (successively increasing in both breadth and antiquity by each re-telling) to include all the usual conspiracy theory favourites; Leonardo da Vinci, Alexandre Dumas, Guercino, Nicolas Poussin, Dante Alighieri, Goethe, Jules Verne et. al.
The society is principally described by Michel Lamy in his work Jules Verne, Initie et Initiateur, based on extrapolations of previous work by cryptographer Grasset d'Orcet.
