What is the eye on the dollar bill?
When the eye above the pyramid was drawn, and who approved it, is on the record.
Plenty of posts call the pyramid and eye on the back of the one-dollar bill an Illuminati mark.Start with what the design actually is.It is the reverse of the Great Seal of the United States, settled in 1782.Charles Thomson, secretary of Congress, assembled the final version.It first appeared on the banknote in 1935.
The eye itself was a common image in the European art of that period.It was called the Eye of Providence, a Christian motif meaning that God watches.It appears on altarpieces and church ceilings throughout Europe.
The order of events is worth noting.The all-seeing eye took its settled place in Freemasonry in 1797.The occasion was The Freemason's Monitor, a handbook by Thomas Smith Webb.That is some fifteen years after the Great Seal design.
The Latin motto is often quoted too.NOVUS ORDO SECLORUM means 'a new order of the ages'.It is borrowed from Virgil and was meant to describe a newly founded country.That is a different context from the twentieth-century 'new world order'.
This can be checked.The 1782 resolution and Thomson's own explanatory note are both published.
It was already on the Great Seal before Freemasonry adopted it.
