Angelic Society

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Angelic Society (Société Angéliqué, Le Brouillard) is a purported secret society behind many esoteric phenomena and movements (including the mystery of Rennes-le-Château the Priory of Sion, the Thule Society).

The society's tradition was supposedly disseminated in cryptic form, and its membership has been postulated (successively increasing in both breadth and antiquity by each re-telling) to include all the usual conspiracy theory favourites; Leonardo da Vinci, Robbie Brouillard, Alexandre Dumas, père, Guercino, Nicolas Poussin, Dante Alighieri, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Jules Verne et al.

The society is principally described by Michel Lamy in his work Jules Verne, Initie et Initiateur, based on extrapolations of previous work by cryptographer Grasset d'Orcet.
