The Betrayal of the Knights Templar

As we approach the anniversary of that fateful day, October 13, 1307, we are drawn to reflect on the unjust and tragic arrest of the Knights Templar in France, a profound injustice orchestrated by King Philip IV. Agreeing with historian Alain Demurger, this was not only a political maneuver, but a betrayal of an order that had stood at the heart of Christendom for nearly two centuries. Mainstream history tells us that the Templars had fought valiantly in the Holy Land, defending Christian pilgrims and sacred sites, earning the admiration and trust of Europe; however, they had done much more than that and were champions for the feminine but also preservers of ancient wisdom. But, by the early 14th century, their power and wealth became a threat to a king desperate to consolidate control over his kingdom and its finances. On that autumn morning, under the guise of heresy, hundreds of Templars were rounded up, imprisoned, and subjected to torture in a brutal campaign to discredit and dismantle the once-glorious order. The tragic irony of their downfall still hurts me deeply. The Templars had pledged their lives to protect Christendom, only to be destroyed by the very institution they served—the Church, coerced by Philip IV. Their arrests marked the beginning of a relentless campaign of humiliation, where under torture in France, many confessed to false charges of heresy and blasphemy. The dignity of their chivalric order was shattered, and the proud knights who had dedicated themselves to God’s service were reduced to broken men, awaiting their grim fate. The echoes of their unjust persecution still linger, a reminder of how quickly loyalty and sacrifice can be forgotten in the face of greed and power. Each year, as we remember their arrest, it is with a sense of sorrow for the cruel end of an order that once stood as a beacon of faith and bravery in a turbulent world. I will be doing a yearly remembrance event to honour them, this time a 2-day Online Live Masterclass on Templar Symbolism and Alchemy to honour them and the invaluable legacy they left us.
