If you are a traveler who plans to visit some sacred places in the whole world, then probably you need to know the Manitoba Legislative Building and its Masonic symbols. Historians and other researchers actually believed that this building has been built with different purposes and interpretations. Some of them concluded that spirituality and government issues were the core reasons; however, almost half of sculptures and figures were related to Babylonian, Christian and Egyptian civilization. Take a look at the following information and formulate your own interpretation.
In 1914, there was an outbreak of the First World War in the location of the building, but fortunately, the staffs have been started to evacuate since 1913. This was the first tragedy that the building has been conquered. Though there was a shortage of materials and funds, the Manitobans still pursued to build and restore the beauty of the building. Luckily, improvements were seen after the end of the war, and ceremonies have been conducted by Sir James Aikins, the Lieutenant-Governor of Manitoba to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the province. The camaraderie of the Manitobans in maintaining the beauty of the building was one of the most significant reasons why it gained the highest recognition at this point of time. Yet rather unappreciated at the time - and even now in 2013 - is that all the Manitoba politicians at the time - except for three - were all practicing masons of the local Masonic lodges.
The building has one room that portrayed the temple of Solomon hundreds of decades ago. According to one researcher from the University of Winnipeg, Frank Albo (FA), the measurements of the original Solomon's temple and the sacred room of the Manitoba Legislative building were all equal. There might some discrepancies in styles, but the details kept by Babylonians were the best evidences how accurate the comparisons were. The original temple was built during the 10th century BCE while the Babylonians brought the remains in 586 BCE to guide the construction of the building. The hall was then added with two life-sized monuments bulls, because ancient people believed that these animals can ward off the works of the evil spirits.
The North side of the building, above the six central columns, is the principal area of figures. In the left, the visitors can easily see the Indolent man, with a half-kneeling woman. Another is the European Goddess leading a bull that symbolizes immigration and heritage. The figure of a man, child and woman that represents colonization of the land is located on the right part of the building. The Lady Manitoba is seated in the center with sun rays behind her. Next to the woman is a muscular structure with a team of horses and a plough plowing the soil. Lastly, visitors can easily look at a figure with two entwined female that represents the Red and Assiniboine Rivers.
The Pool of the Black Star is actually a symbol of Babylonian Goddess Ishtar next to the statue of Hermes. It has an eight pointed star in the center of the lower ground underneath the altar with a radius of 8.2 m (27 feet). One unique thing concerning this area is the amazing design of the wall that allows any sound from the building to be heard and caught. So visitors should observe the words to say if they do not want to be the center of attraction. Aside from this, the Lieutenant - Governor's Reception Room, the Legislative Chamber, the Grand Staircase and exterior designs are all created with a purpose - to represent the beauty of the ancient civilization as well as the to recognize the general figures, to inform the people about spirituality and prosperity by providing them some of the symbols and murals and to give a memorable tour to visitors and travelers.
