The Rose Cross is a female symbol referring to Venus. Adopted as a symbol by Rosicrucians, it is found on earlier Templar edifices. The red rose (used by Rosicrucians and Templars) is also a Venusian symbol. According to myth the red color of the flower is from the spilled blood of Venus’s sacrificed son-lover Adonis. Again we have the implicit motif of ritual wounding (castration) central to Masonic tradition.
PS: On an unrelated note William & Son are well known for their luxury watches, they even set up shop in Switzerland. This makes them a direct competitor to JLC so it was a deliberate move on SoFail’s behalf. She piggybacked off of BC and JLC and ended up undermining them both.
