✅️The building is a prime example of Beaux-Arts Classical architecture in Manitoba and is known for its intricate symbolic details, influenced by ●Egyptian mythology and ●Hermetic philosophy.
✅️Some sources and books, such as The Hermetic Code, suggest the building is designed to be a modern-day version of
🕍Solomon's Temple, with numerous symbols intended to be a spiritual guide.
✅️The Manitoba Legislative Building is filled with hidden symbols:
●Sphinxes: Two sphinxes guard the west side, a nod to both Egyptian guardians and the Greek sphinx known for its riddles. A hidden cartouche of the pharaoh Tuthmosis III can only be seen by climbing onto the roof.
●Golden Boy: The statue on the dome, officially named "Eternal Youth and the Spirit of Enterprise," is the Greek god Hermes/Roman god Mercury, representing commerce and communication.
●Bison statues: Two life-sized bison statues guard the front staircase, representing the ancient bull statues that guarded temples.
Interior
●Pool of the Black Star: Located under the dome, this eight-pointed black marble star is aligned with the Golden Boy above and is meant to focus sound from all over the building. It represents the Star of Ishtar, associated with the planet Venus.
●Number 13: The number appears repeatedly in the building, such as in the number of lights around the rotunda's central lamp (12 + 1), believed by some to be a nod to luck or Freemasonry.
●Fibonacci sequence: The numbers 5, 8, and 13, and 666, are woven into the building's design, including the dimensions of rooms and the circumference of the Pool of the Black Star.
●Medusa's head: A bust of the Greek mythological figure Medusa is found on an archway in the entrance hall, intended as a protective figure against evil.
●Ark of the Covenant: The inner sanctum of the Lieutenant Governor's office is considered a "Holy of Holies" and is said to contain a symbolic Ark of the Covenant carved into the building behind purple curtains, accessible only once a year.
●Mural: A mural above the legislative chamber depicts the tragic sacrifice of World War I soldiers alongside bright flowers, symbolizing the coming of peace.
