The order is a broad, watered scarlet ribbon worn from right to left. On the front is embroidered in gold, a winged-globe and under it a scarab, under which is a brilliant butterfly; all are symbols of immortality.

The girdle is of light-green morroco leather, fringed below with gold, and edged with gold lace. From this belt are suspended the jewel of the preceeding degree, a silver censer, and the jewel of this degree, the Phoenician letter Aleph.

The apron is of white lambskin, lined with scarlet and bordered with light-green. In the middle is painted a representation of an Arabic tent, in gold. On the light blue flap is a representation of a myrtle tree of violet color, also an emblem of immortality.

The jewel is the Phoenician letter 'A' (Aleph), suspended from a short collar of narrow, watered violet-colored ribbon. It is another manifestation of the Pentagram, or Five-Pointed Star, because the star, viewed from any angle figures the letter 'A'. Since 'A' is the initial of one of the principle names of Deity, Adonai, or LORD, this star is a sign of intellectual omnipotence and autocracy.
