The illuminati is a highly classified group of individuals and global leaders who are the puppet masters of the modern world. They are supposedly behind most world events and are responsible for the success of many top celebrities and musicians. They are most commonly associated with the all seeing eye; the pyramid on the US 1 dollar bill, which is the most common symbol that people today use to identify members of the organization. Here we discuss the different reasons for what have lead people to believe in this all powerful organization and what kind of evidence there may be.

Description:

This video travels from the beginnings of the Illuminati, where it started, why, and what its relevance is today. It notices how many explanations of the illuminati are impossible to prove or disprove and outlines many of the wild claims that people have made about the illuminati over the years

Connection:

This is a very detailed documentary summarizing the illuminati from it’s early days to where it is now. Many detailing points that are made here take root in a form of appeal to authority where many intellectuals make claim on the presence of the illuminati and that is treated as fact; stories of people who have ‘seen’ people transform to reptiles in front of them, but no proof. It is deeply based off of a belief that there is a higher being playing out the world as they want it, giving reason of suspicion to agenticity.

Description:

This video is a short dissection of the involvement of the pop star Beyonce in the illuminati. Although it does not necessarily proof her participation in, or the existence of the illuminati, it does outline some key features about what people see In them,

Connection:

People are fascinated when it comes to the imagery of the illuminati. Here, people make the connection to beyonce, Jay-Z, and many other celebrities who show illuminati symbolism, typically in the shape of a triangle. Beyonce has outright said she has nothing to do with the illuminati, but people still want to believe, which leads to confirmation bias. People who wasn’t to see her symbolism as a sign that she is involved with the illuminati, will see it every time, no matter how silly it is. Going hand and hand with patternicity where people are so familiar with the shapes and symbols regarding the illuminati, seeing it in any place they can is sudden proof that it exists.

Description

A few examples of theories concerning the Illuminati are in regards to religions. Many people believe that the illuminati is seeking to destroy other religions, such as Christianity, in replace with witchcraft, or satanism.

Connection:

One of the theories here regards aliens and how they have played a significant role in pushing technology forward. The illuminati, however, is playing as a gatekeeper and supressing this gifted knowledge from us, which is why we have never seen aliens or discovered this technology. Alongside this, events such as 9/11, the Las Vegas shooting, and the assassination of JFK were all planned by the illuminati and staged in order to control us and our thinking. Agenticity has been very closely related to the illuminati, as well as suppression by authority as many like to think they are keeping information from us, in order to control us.

Description:

Illuminati a secret shadow organization that has elite members who manipulate and control the globe in particular ways to server their best interests. Generation after generation the illuminati has fed humanity with lies and deception over the years and have firmly made most of us believe their lies. There should not be an organization like this on earth and it is up to humanity to decide on what they should do with it.

Connection:

This article on this website connects to Confirmation Bias because the author is fixated in the idea that this shadow organization exists and this whole article is about what they do to humanity and how we should respond to the threat it supposedly poses. It also connects to Suppression by Authorities since none of the ‘elite’ members of this organization is public knowledge and it is assumed by the author that this is due to Illuminati controlling the government to supress details about their organization.

Description:

This article talks about what is illuminati and the supposed elite members of this organization as well as how them controlling the world might not be a bad idea. It mainly talks about why humans believe in such an organization and explains how illuminati could use its mysterious powers to benefit the earth.

Connection:

The connection here is Agenticity because we humans are generally inclined towards conspiracy theories since its in our nature to question things. Many believe that illuminati is real due to the fact they cannot explain certain things. This connects to Unexplained because our questions about reality often goes unanswered and these unanswered un-explainable things are what in turn results into becoming as a conspiracy theory.

This picture is a famous picture of the illuminati and is usually the face of the illuminati. The famous eye is called the “Eye of Providence” and it is often said to be a symbol of the illuminati. It is also on the back of the US $1 bill and on other official documents.

Connection:

This picture connects to Appeal to Authority because the pyramid represents the base of the all-seeing eye and the eye sees everything, meaning they are overseeing all things in society. This can also connect to the government having backdoor access to all cameras in their country.

Description:
This picture is about an illuminati ritual or cabal where they recruit other members into their secret society. The setting of this picture looks to be in an off-site underground facility.

Connection:

This picture connects to Appeal to Authority because everyone surrounding the leader in a circle is obeying him/her and they are awaiting instructions. Also, they must comply with all rules and sacrifice of their soul. This also connects to ideology because the people surrounding the leader are biased for beliefs on they will do and believe anything he/she says.

Description:
This is a picture of Adam Weishaupt in 1776 – the year that the illuminati was created. He was a liberal enlightenment figure at the Bavaria’s University of Ingolstadt and they formed a secret society called the illuminatenorden (also known as the Order of illuminati).

Connection:

This picture connects to Ancient Wisdom because this is the foundation of the illuminati. Without Adam being born and forming the illuminati, the secret society we know today as the illuminati would not be the same, perhaps it might not even exist. Another connection is Appeal to Authority because this secret society promoted liberal, progressive, and anti-clerical enlightenment in the face of the government and church sanctions.
