In this occult classic, Elizabeth Van Buren traces the origins of the legendary Temple of Solomon to one of Europe’s most enigmatic sacred sites: France’s Rennes-le-Château.

Van Buren reveals how its hidden presence was guarded for millennia by initiates and revered by the Merovingian kings. She draws compelling connections between this “temple not built by human hands” and the encoded works of visionaries such as Da Vinci, Poussin, and Nostradamus, as well as alchemists like Fulcanelli and Rabelais. Through references to the Cathars, the Templars, Saunière, the Grail, Mary Magdalene, and mystical symbols such as the Skull and Crossbones, the author shows how coded mysteries have preserved a hidden tradition across centuries. Among these hidden traditions, she examines the language of the birds, Freemasonry, the phonetic cabala, and alchemical allegory.

Situating Rennes-le-Château within a sacred global network that encodes humanity’s evolving relationship with the heavens, Van Buren reveals how the site is a focal point of immense mystical energy, constructed as a Temple of Time for the end of the current precessional cycle. She explains how changes in celestial orientation have historically reshaped human consciousness and allowed access to higher dimensions. She weaves together geomancy, sidereal geography, astrology, and the reorganized zodiac to decode a powerful warning: an imminent apocalypse linked to an impending polar shift and cosmic realignment.

Connecting her discoveries to a subterranean labyrinth that she identifies as the true Temple of Solomon, Van Buren shows how Rennes-le-Château was constructed as a portal through ­time and dimensions—and a refuge for the coming upheaval.
