If you watch it again then look out for all the triangles in almost each of the scenes (mostly the very bright Christmas trees).
Apparently Kubrick had a fascination with the Eye of Providence symbol and I think those Christmas tree triangles are an example of that too. It is also seen in one of the masks much more clearly. It could be considered a link to the Illuminati (the triangle is their symbol according to conspiracy theories), as if to say the underground cult is related to that/or is that or the triangles could have a simpler meaning I think perhaps just someone is always watching you; and in the case of Eyes Wide Shut, perhaps not a person but maybe Tom Cruise's conscious, hence he admits his wrong doing in the end?
Kubrick's films are deeper than what he gets credit for I reckon.
See the link for more info on the Eye of Providence examples in some of his other films and the Eyes Wide Shut mask example. It's engrossing stuff in my opinion.
