Vulcan was a sun deity who was associated with fire,
thunderbolts, and light.
The festival in honour of him was called the Vulcania in
which human sacrifices were offered. “Vulcania, he bears a family relationship
to the Christian devil.” It is fascinating to know that he married Venus,
another name for Lucifer or the devil.
What is even more interesting is that Vulcan is adored in
Freemasonry under the name of Tubal Cain. In the Masonic Quiz Book the question
is asked:
“Who was Tubal Cain?” The answer is:
“He is the Vulcan of the pagans.”
In Masonry, Tubal Cain is the name of the password for the
Master Mason (or third) degree.
Listen to what occultist and Mason, Manly Palmer Hall, has
to say:
“When the Mason learns that the key to the warrior on the
block is the proper application of the dynamo of living power, he has learned
the mastery of his craft.
The seething energies of Lucifer are in his hands and before
he may step onward and upward, he must prove his ability to properly apply
energy. He must follow in the footsteps of his forefather, Tubal-Cain, who with
the mighty strength of the war god hammered his sword into a ploughshare.”
There is also a sexual connotation associated with Vulcan
and Tubal Cain.
