Symbolic analyze of the church Notre-Dame of Belleville

While arriving in front of the church, on the principal gate, we realize immediately that energies are importants in this place.

This church was built under the influence of Humbert III, lord of Beaujeu, who was a templar. Who knows the history of these men knows that the sybolism was familiar for them. A Celtic cross  in top of the Western frontage shows us the druidic influence in that moment when we enters the sanctuary. In the church, on the pavement of the northern absidiole, a templar cross.

Southern doors

The two doors were inside the cloister.

The first that we find shows, on the top of the pillar, a bifid siren. She is androgyne, male half, female half, and makes us understand that it is necessary to be able to maitrise the antagonist sides to benefit of the energy of the place. Bifide, it indicates the presence of two water currents crossing under the building. The tail does not touch the ground, it goes up towards the sky, and the siren holds it in its hands: reversal, maitrise, approaching God, permitted by present energies.

The second, in the foot of the southern bell-tower, shows us a monkey. Its mouth leave foliated scroll, symbol of the verb. The monkey represents usually the animal part of the man, that which is needed maitriser. The verb, it is creation. Would the man, as an animal, be a also creator?

With the top of the door, on the lintel, three sheets of palm, resembling by their form scallops. Belleville is on one of the ways to Compostelle. The pilgrims knowing the language of the birds, knew that this door opened the initiatory course of the church, that which makes it possible to receive transforming energies.

We find, under the church, the artificial water currents. They are 7, in NORTH-SOUTH direction, and pass under the pillars of the nave, for each chakra. The Jordan passes between the pillars of the western frontage and the first pillars of the nave. Four currents cross on the level of the chorus. The old well is in the middle of the central absidiole, that of the cloister in the middle of the current place.

Pillars and their capitals

In this church, we have a side yin, at the south, and a side yang in north. This is indicated to us by the pillars holding with the western frontage, one with a capital presenting of the musicians, and the other of the warriors.
We are not yet in the sanctuary, but a first energy stage passed, indicated by dischargers. The Jordan runs under our feet.

Then we advance towards the pillar representing the first chakra. A monster holds in its mouth a character, androgyne also, symbol of our instincts which are needed maitriser. The character tightens the arms towards the chorus of the church, the eyes are open . The monster has 4 teeth, for the matter, the ears quite open in order to hear, like the character.

Opposite, plants have their sheets turned to the bottom, energies did not allow rise yet. A wolf indicates the beginning of the way, the interior advance.

Then we find the pillar of the second chakra . The eagles are still deadened, the folded up wings, the head looking at the ground. Their legs are posed on the circle representing the matter.

Opposite, the snake-vouivre is held in the mouth of the man, the woman listening to what it has to say. We enter the true sanctuary.

The pillar of the solar chakra  presents tied plants to us, but starting to be turned over. The man, the head in bottom, begins his reversal. Opposite, a monkey. It must still work to be left the matter. The telamones show us the various stages to be followed for the reversal: arms still turned towards the ground, then raised to the sky, my feet in the matter, then with the top.

The pillar of the chakra of heart introduces to us a man with closed eyes. It listens to its interior being. The pine cones, symbol of the interior richness, are there to confirm. The plants are turned upwards.

On the pillar of the  chakra of throat, a man bores his tongue with a knife. In the explanations usually given, it is about the lie… But we are in the communication, in the expression. The cut or mutilated tongue indicates that we must keep the secrecy and silence. We learn while listening and while looking at, not while speaking.

Opposite, two birds drinking in the same chalice. A leg left the ground, the wings are deployed. We approache.

The pillar of the frontal chakra presents the bell ringer of horn to us. It expresses its opinion and passes in an oscillatory mode.

Opposite, the head of bull, symbol of the maitrized terrestrial forces, memory of Mithra. We are on an important energy door.

The pillar of coronal chakra represents a musician who blows in an instrument where 9 holes are visible. 4 fingers below, 4 fingers above: stability in energies.

It is where we find the important dischargers, with a broken line under them. Energy is powerful. It is the first time that I see thus represented energy according to the pillar,  arriving in dischargers where it is dispersed, maintaining the building in an energy balance which, if it were not respected, would make collapse the building.

The two following pillars show crowned pigs with opened mouth, from which energies leave. Recall of wild boars druidic, and the maitrise.

We find as the trace of the maitres of work, the goose leg, carved at the base of the pillar, as well as heads of lions, one more “human " than the other… Who has ears hears. The guard is on this level.

Pillars of the chorus

They take again the pillars of the chorus of Avenas, the various representations of chakras, the kundalini and the way of being useful itself of energies of the church…
