The logo
of the Universal White Brotherhood

This symbol represents a new way of expressing the astrological sign of Aquarius (someone pouring water), heralding the new era of Aquarius. This new era brings dynamic forces of universality, brotherhood, unity; it shall be one of living knowledge. The symbol of Aquarius is an old man pouring water from his urn. This old man represents wisdom that pours the water of life.
	The circle represents the sun. And, as the sun, the new era will bring light, warmth and life represented by wisdom, love and a new behavior. In the Zodiac, the constellation of Leo houses the Sun and Aquarius forms the axis. The sun symbolizes the Christ who brings to humanity a new golden age and, as the circle, the sun is the symbol of unity, harmony and universality because it gives evenly to everyone. Thus, it embodies the truths and principles expressed in all the great religions particularly that of universal fraternity.
	The anchor (blue color : the sky, spirit, spirituality) is the symbol of faith which holds on to a solar high-ideal, to the source of life. It is the symbol of navigators who travel on the ocean of life and of the hope that connects us to the divine world.
	Water represents a spring that pours its new life, its purity, its limpidity, and its strength. The sign of Aquarius being a sign of Air, tells us that this water is of a subtle, spiritual nature. Combined with the fire of the sun, it facilitates the blossoming of human beings showing them the path of the second birth: “Unless a man be born again of water and the Spirit (or fire), he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God”. John 3:5
	The hands teach us the philosophy of giving. It is the symbol of generosity, of fraternal support, of action, of diligent effort, of the work to be accomplished.
	The rope is a link with the source of life. It carries the idea of the living human chain of the Brotherhood, and of the high ideal to be reached that connects us to God.
