Language of the Birds
Alternatively known as Green Language.
Language of the Birds is the secret speech and writing of the occultists, which employs symbolism derived from cosmic truths.
Many occult systems and Mystery Schools adopted the Language of the Birds to express their secret teachings, including the Rosicrucians and the Alchemists.
The engraving on the right from Robert Fludd's Clavis Philosophiae, et Alchymiae, 1633 shows the symbol of the Rosicrucian rosy-cross with its layers of sevenfold petals, tended by bees, which symbolize human souls. The Latin phrase translates as "The Rose gives honey to the bees." The bees or souls are taking nourishment from the rosy-cross, which symbolizes a renewed Christ impulse: the rose is Christ growing upon the painful, spiny cross. In the Green Language the word 'Apis' refers to a duality of nature to the creature of flight, and to the heavy creature of earth, the sacrificial bull.
This duality made the bee a useful symbol for the initiate, who was the inhabitant of two worlds; he was free to wing through the astral realms, yet remained also a dweller on the lower physical plane, in the familiar human body. The bee symbol was more than merely an image of the soul it was an image of the initiate soul, of the Bull-Bee or Winged Bull, which had the power to granted the initiate to live in the two worlds.
