The secret slogan of the Illuminati. It means "Eternal Flower Power". It got a lot of play in Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson's "The Illuminatus! Trilogy", but it's actually shown up in other places, too.

According to an article in "Teenset" magazine, Illuminism and Flower Power inspired all nine of Beethoven's symphonies. Really! And the article says that Chicago Mayor Richard Daly shouted "Ewige Blumenkraft!" during his off-microphone diatribe against Senator Abraham Ribicoff during the 1968 Democratic Party convention. No, really!
