The Joe and Jill Chronicles: Corn, Wine, and Oil: Earning Our Wages:     

In ancient days, Master masons were paid with not only coin, but also with corn, wine, and oil.  These three kinds of wages have a long and meaningful history, and as symbolic wages of masonry, an examination of them can help to understand what we must give and what we receive from a membership in a lodge.

The House of Bad Luck

The House of Glucksburg are a powerful royal bloodline that rule over Norway with King Harald V, Denmark with Queen Margarethe II, and also formerly ruled over Greece. The family originates in Germany and the word Gluck means luck or fortune.

Many of the Germany and Venetian nobility have some ancestry from Greece and the Byzantine empire. The Karadja family settled a branch in Germany and the Greek branch are the Kardashians today who have Armenian ancestry.  Many Byzantine families were Armenian. The Kardashians are wealthy and famous today because they descend from nobility.

The Bush family were the House of Bussche of Germany and before that they were the Vatatzes family of Greece. Vatatzes or Batatzes means a bramble bush or briar in Greek. The Vatatzes family ruled in the Empire of Nicaea during the early 13th century. Vatatzes is similar to Vatican just as the Council of Nicaea established modern Christianity under Emperor Constantine.

The Glucksburg family also originated from the Byzantine Empire and are likely descendants of the Constantinian dynasty. The head of the Greek royal family today is Constantine II and he was the last reigning monarch of Greece. When the royal family were exiled from Greece they stayed in Rome.

Queen Sofia of Spain is from the House of Glucksburg and her husband Juan Carlos of Spain was born in Rome while the Spanish House of Bourbon was in exile.

Prince Pavlos of Greece went to the Jesuit University of Georgetown in DC with King Felipe IV of Spain.

 The word Gluck means luck or fortune. The Glucksburg are a very lucky family with large amounts of wealth and power in the world.

Members of the Greek royal family have ties with London and carry out private business there like most of the royal families. One way that the Glucksburg family are so lucky or fortunate is because they cause misfortune for others that threaten their power.

A Greek word for luck or charm is goiteia. Goetia is a form of sorcery and conjuring. They use witchcraft and covert methods to curse and ruin the lives of others that threaten their system or control.

The Greek royal family have authority over many of the fraternities and sororities in the world that are Greek based like Phi Sigma Kappa and Alpha Delta Phi. Fraternities or brotherhoods are secret societies that use initiations. They use secrecy because they are involved in plots to dominate over aspects of society like business, banking, and politics and they serve powerful families like the House of Glucksburg.  Through these secret organizations they pay off or reward members to cause misfortune for those that threaten their system or power.

The Danish and Norwegian Houses of Glucksburg are covertly managing the World Health Organization (WHO) which uses the Greek Rod of Asclepius of a serpent coiled around a staff. Serpents are venomous.

Modern medicine is being used as a form of chemical warfare and this is another way they cause misfortune and disease. Norwegian delegates helped to establish the WHO.

Gro Harlem Brundtland was Prime Minister of Norway for three terms and also Director General of the WHO. Halfdan Mahler was from Glucksburg controlled Denmark and three time former Director General for the WHO.
