BES the Protector of the Home

Bes The Protector of the Home

 


 





I have noticed the similarities of the names of Bes and the Spiritual properties of Basil. Our Ancestors have often hidden our knowledge in children's stories and characters to engage our memories to hold onto and "Re-Member" wisdom. The similarities in the spiritual properties found in the old knowledge of herbs and their medicinal and healing applications were often the only remedies for people with no access to doctors or hospitals. These characters represent our mother's wisdom that was passed down from generation to generation.


Dr. Cheikh Anta Diop is an accomplished historian who warned 14 PhDs in Science, stated the first inhabitants of Africa south of the Sahara were the Twa and Khoisan, the later West African and Bantu came from the Sahara, the Nile Valley, and West Asia.

Mainstream historians never credited the Saharan for domesticating the horse and inventing the plow and chariot, yet Basil Davidson shows Africans migrating from the Sahara to West Africa and the Nile Valley.

The Twa people of Africa were among the first Africans to people the world. They created the first advanced civilizations worldwide.

Many Chinese, Japanese, and Mayans are the same 5’0″ size as the Twa because they are descendant of Twa people. If you look closely you can see their Twa phenotype. It looks like outside Africa the Twa and other African ethnic group mixed with other people and their descendants who are really the same African people.

Globe Trotting Twas:


The Twa aka Anu lived from the Nile Valley to Mali(called Tellen). They lived in Portugal, Germany, and England(called Picts and Lapps). They lived in Scandinavia where they are called Finns(Finland name after them).

The Twa lived in Groeland, Canada(called Skraelings), North America(called Mounds Builders). They lived in the tip of South America where they are called the Fuegians.

Moving West to Hawaii where the Twa were called Menehune. In the Philippine Islands, they were called Negritos by the Spanish. In Indonesia on the Island of Flores, skeletons of Twa were called Hobbits. In India, we find the Twa in an island in the Bay of Bengals where they are called Andaman Islanders. Yes, The Twa are found all over the world.

In the book, The First Americans Were African by David Imhotep.


First Civilization:


The first Paleolithic man was the Twa who evolved in Central Africa at the source of the Nile Valley and from here all originated (civilization) and was carried throughout the world. The Twa created spirituality. They are the first humans. The connection between Twa, Khoi, and Masaba connected with the Nilotic black-created spiritual systems. The first Nilotic Egyptian Gods were Twa(Ptah, Bes) and the Goddess were Twa according to 

Albert Churchward and Gerald Massey, Authors of Occultic Understanding.

The Pygmy believed in a father God who was killed. A virgin mother who gave birth to a Savior son who avenged the death of his father. These become Asr(Osiris,) Auset(Isis,) and Heru(Horus) of Kemet (Egypt.)

The Pygmy had developed in the distant past a highly technical and advanced type of material culture and they built boats traveling all over the world. But civilization brought them nothing but bad luck, so preferring happiness to misery, they finally gave up this high material civilization. Pygmy fossils have been found in all parts of the world.

Christianity before Christ by John G Jackson.

Anthropological Studies:

Jean Pierre Hallet was a Belgian-born anthropologist who lived with the Twas and studied their history and culture for more than 20 years. Hallet’s Pygmy friends told him that in the distant past, they developed a highly technical and advanced type of material culture and that they built boats and traveled widely around the world, but that this technical excellence bought them nothing but bad luck, so, preferring happiness to misery, they finally gave up this high material civilization. There may be a lot of truth in these traditions, for Pygmy fossils have been found in all parts of the world.”

-John G. Jackson ‘Christianity Before Christ’



Found in Wikipedia: "Bes (pron.: /bɛs/; also spelled as Bisu) is a Kemetic (Ancient "Egyptian") Icon, symbolized as a protector of households, and in particular, of mothers and children and childbirth. Bes later came to be regarded as the defender of everything good and the enemy of all that is bad. While past studies identified Bes as a Middle Kingdom import from Nubia, more recent research indicates that he was present in Egypt since the start of Old Kingdom. Mentions of Bes can be traced to pre-dynastic Nile Valley cultures; however, his form appears to be found all over the world."

Ma Bes can be found all over the Planet


Within the center of the Aztec calendar is the symbol of Bes, wagging her tongue, as a protector, daring any challenge.

BES IS THE BLACK PRESENCE ALL OVER THE WORLD! 
BES IS THE BLACK TWA MAN APPEARING IN EUROPE. 
BES IS THE LEPRECHAUN, THE ELF, THE FAIRY,  AND APPEARING AS SWARTE PETE AND SINTER KLAS...




The Black Queen Mother is the Temple pillars and throne of all mankind and the origin of Civilization. Bes is her ambassador and protector.


Bes is the spiritual protector, promoter, and healer of the home and family. He/She encourages fertility and watches over and teaches parents and children in their growth and development. Bes holds all of the wisdom and knowledge of the earth. She knows the cycles of time and the seasons. She knows the healing properties of all herbs. She is familiar with gardens, forests, animals, insects, lakes, rivers, mountains, and caves. She knows the prayers, chants, lyrics, limericks, lullabies, bedtime stories, dances, mathematics, letters, formulas, recipes, and words of power. He symbolizes the Shaman healer of the Nome or Klan. He is chemistry and physics. She represents the Sage, guardian and spiritual intuitive energy to ward off hostile energy from your family, life, home, office or wherever it is present. Bes controls The weather, the rain and the wind, the earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Bes is Majic. He loves gold and can draw wealth and prosperity to the home. You can find this symbolic image of Bes all over the world. The earliest images of Elves, Trolls, Leprechauns, Fairies and Gnomes from all over the world were Black. The people are all characteristic and symbolic of our ancient Ancestors -the Twa and Khoisan (also known as "Pygmy") Mother and Father, with their history and wisdom of nature and the universe.


Here is an excerpt of a great find of the manuscript below:



On the extreme right of the façade: A Pygmy in the court of Egypt.

Pepy II's letter to Herkuf

A fourth, unnarrated, campaign to the land of Yam must have taken place, during which Harkhuf sent a letter to the young king Pepi II to inform him, particularly, that he was bringing back a pygmy, which resulted in the rest of the inscription. In fact, Pepi II wrote a letter in reply to that of Harkhuf, who was so proud of it that he had the text inscribed on the façade of his tomb in Aswan. Since little space remained, he had to prepare a space for it at the extreme right of the façade. Thus, the only complete royal letter dating from the old Kingdom has reached us.:

“ Seal of the king Himself. Second year of His reign, third month of the season akhet, fifteenth day. Royal decree (to) the Sole Companion, Lector-Priest, chief of interpreters, Harkhuf.

I have acquainted myself with the words of your letter, which you addressed to the king in the palace to inform him that you travelled in peace to the land of Yam, with the army, which accompanied you. You said in your letter that you were bringing back all sorts of presents, important and beautiful, which Hathor, lady of Imaou, gave for the ka of the king of Upper and Lower Egypt, Neferkare- may he live eternally and forever! You also say in your letter that you will bring back a pygmy (for) the dances of the God and coming from the land of the inhabitants of the horizon and similar to the pygmy which the treasurer of the God, Bawerded brought back from Punt in the time of the king Isesi. cartouche of king Djed-Ka-Re (Isesi)

You also say to My Majesty: never before has such a (pygmy) been brought back by any of those who have visited the land of Yam. It is said that, each year, you accomplish that which your royal Lord wishes and praises. You pass your days and your nights thinking of doing that which your Lord wishes, praises and commands. So My Majesty will act such that the numerous and excellent honours which are yours shall also please the sons of your son for eternity and that men will say, when they hear what my Majesty has done for you“ is there any parallel to that which was done for the Sole Companion Harkhuf when he came back from the land of Yam, because of the diligence with which he carried out that which his Lord wished, praised and commanded.?”

Come back, then, to the north, to the Residence. Leave (everything) and bring with you the pygmy which you have brought from the land of the inhabitants of the horizon, alive, in good health and strong so that he may dance for the God and make cheerful and rejoicing the heart of the king of Upper and Lower Egypt, Neferkare- may he live eternally!

If you come with him in the ship, set well-advised men about him on both sides of the boat and take care that he does not fall in the water. If he lies down to sleep during the night, have wise men to sleep beside him in his tent; go and check, ten times in the night. Because My Majesty wishes to see this pygmy more than all the tributes of Sinai or Punt.

If you reach the Residence and the pygmy is with you, alive, in good health and strong, My Majesty will do great things for you, more important than those which were done for the treasurer of the God, Bawerded, in the time of the king Isesi, according to the desire which My Majesty has to see this famous pygmy. Orders have been sent to the chief of the new town, Sole Companion and steward of the priests to command that victuals be taken by his care in every warehouse town and in every temple, without exception.

Zwarte Piet/ Pieten(Black Pete) is a character who has deep roots in traditional Dutch and Netherlands folklore. He appears in The Netherlands as a Spanish Moor (common to southern Holland in the 1500s), in caricature, as a Black man, with gold earrings and colorful period costumes of a Spanish Moor.


The story goes that Zwarte Piet chose to work with Saint Nicholas as his engineer and magical accompaniment. Since the 18th century in Holland, he has been depicted as a companion to Saint Nicholas in all of his holiday travels. Zwarte Pieten is today commonly depicted as a black person in the colorful pantaloons, feathered cap and ruffles of a Renaissance Moor, This character and tradition was later recorded in a children's book published in 1850. Zwarte Pieten is often portrayed as a mischievous but rarely mean-spirited character, the character is believed to have been derived from Bes the spirit pagan after his traditions. Nowadays, Zwarte Pieten has become a much more respected assistant of Saint Nicholas, often humorous, self-determined, majical, and playful.

Wikipedia:

Zwarte Piet (pronounced ['zʋɑrtə pit], "Black Pete") is the companion of Saint Nicholas (DutchSinterklaas from which the American figure of Santa Claus is derived) in the folklore of the Low Countries. In its modern form, the character is commonly depicted as a blackamoor, with blackface make-up, and dressed in stylized colourful Renaissance attire, akin to Maures in European heraldry, and similar to Moorish characters in the "Moors and Christians" Iberian folk festivals commemorating the Reconquista.

Currently, the media is presenting articles about the many Black people who are protesting the public displays of Zwarte Piet by Dutch people wearing "blackface" and Moorish styled costumes. So now the Dutch, meet Globalization –We now exist in a global world and that means we have to expand our knowledge about other cultures and peoples that make up diverse societies. The festival of Black Pete does, appear to be the glaring elephant in the room in the face of the invasion of South Africa by the Dutch!.. I now reflect back as a child living in Germany, people were so fascinated by us when they saw us at public Shopping districts. They would sometimes approach me and touch my skin… Seeing us must have brought back childhood memories of Black Pete. Understanding that the depiction of Moors and Moorish people in Europe has been slanted as one of servitude, now there are more Black citizens in Europe that live as equals and in authority, all over Europe.

The History of the Moors in Spain goes back to a successful harmony of rulership for almost 1000 years.

Black Europeans were actually still in existence, living as Original peoples, up to their discovery by Nazis, who gave them the choice of sterilization or incarceration in a death camp.

Actually, Black Pete was free to voluntarily work with SinterKlass. He had the upper hand over his counterpart and was the essential agent in the success of this operation for children. Yet the perpetuation of the depiction of servitude, (which reinforces the idea that Black people should be always in that role,) together with the horrible history and tradition of blackface in the US, means that it is time to revisit some of the old traditions and change them. It does matter that the tradition of blackface was the most prominent and therefore most hurtful in the United States. But as with all things, we must find the balance between honoring what is important and adapting to the need to respect the human dignity of all. If we wish to remember or honor the tradition of "Black Pete", then let him be portrayed by willing black actors/celebrants and as the willing friend of Sinterklaas that he is, and not a comic figure, slave, or buffoon. I know that he has been portrayed by the Dutch for countless generations in blackface, as a celebration for the children, of a long-forgotten historical person, most likely a Moor. However, the time for blackface anywhere has come to an end.

BASIL & BES their Spiritual Metaphysical and Aromatherapy properties


BASIL BES- their Spiritual,and Aromatherapy properties



BES

Aromatherapy

Holy Basil - Tulsi

Basil is BES!

We often fail to recognize the multi dimensions of ourselves in nature. Nature/ Neteru provides all of the healing and balance that our spiritual, mental, and body needs to thrive. Spending time around The sun, water, the breeze of fresh air, nature and living things can keep us centered and balanced in an urban environment. To have plants, herbs and flowers around us in our environment as living entities, in our homes, around our children, and to visit the sick, can keep us connected to the the healing, nurturing, aspects of life.

Basil is a symbol of fertility and is also known as the symbol for love because the leaves resemble hearts (Akoma). The Basil (plant spirit) is also a protector of family, and burning basil oil will help to clear negativity from the home and bring blessings and happiness to a new home. Basil creates a sympathetic vibration and is often worn to assist in clashes with other people. Wear basil oil to protect you in crowds. The scent of basil causes sympathy between two people and is used to mend lovers' quarrels. Basil is used also to ensure fidelity between lovers. Basil stimulates the conscious mind to invoke happiness. Use it in a ritual bath to bring new love in, or to free yourself of an old love. Opens the heart meridian-clears energy movement between the heart and the hands.

Basil aroma is also associated with clairvoyance, used to enhance visions and direction, and to promote honesty and positive outcomes and development.

Characteristics: There are many varieties of basil, and basil can include many color variations, but basil can easily be identified by its large, thin oval and easily bruised leaves. Basil, is in the same family as peppermint and is used to season sauces, soups, salads and pasta dishes all around the world.

Flavor: Basil is sweet, peppery and offers a slight anise-like aftertaste. Basil pairs with: tomato, garlic, onion, cilantro, mint and fennel.Basil also offers many important health benefits.

Medicinal Uses: One of the primary medicinal uses for basil is for its anti-inflammatory properties, making basil an ideal treatment for people with arthritis. Basil has strong antioxidant and antimicrobial activity. It is traditionally thought to stimulate the appetite and ease stomach upset. In Chinese medicine, basil is thought to support kidney function and ease gum ulcers. In classic Indian medicine, basil has been used to treat everything from earaches and itching to malaria, arthritis and anorexia. Like tarragon, one of basil’s major volatile oils is estragole that blocks enzymes in the body that cause swelling.

Basil, especially as an extract or oil, is known to have exceptionally powerful antioxidant properties that can protect the body from premature aging, common skin issues, age-related problems and even some types of cancer. The herb also contains the flavonoids orientin and vicenin, which are plant pigments that shield your cell structures from oxygen and radiation damage.

Both fresh basil and basil oil have strong antibacterial capabilities. In fact, basil has been shown to stop the growth of many bacteria, even some that had grown resistant to other antibiotics. Basil can be applied to wounds to help prevent bacterial infections. So, by adding basil oil to your salad dressings, you can help ensure your vegetables are safe to eat.

Basil oil can be used to assist in constipation, stomach cramps and indigestion as well as the cold, flu, asthma, whooping cough, bronchitis and sinus infections. It is also a great source of magnesium, an essential mineral that helps the body’s blood vessels relax, which can improve blood flow.

You can find this symbolic image of Bes all over the world. The earliest images of Elves, Trolls, Leprechauns, Fairies and Gnomes from all over the world were Black. The people are all characteristic and symbolic of our ancient Ancestors -the Twa and Khoisan (also known as "Pigmy") Mother and Father, with their history and wisdom of nature and the universe.

Here is an excerpt of a great find of manuscript below:

On the extreme right of the façade: A Pygmy in the court of Egypt.

Pepy II's letter to Herkuf

A fourth, unnarrated, campaign to the land of Yam must have taken place, during which Harkhuf sent a letter to the young king Pepi II to inform him, particularly, that he was bringing back a pygmy, which resulted in the rest of the inscription. In fact, Pepi II wrote a letter in reply to that of Harkhuf, who was so proud of it that he had the text inscribed on the façade of his tomb in Aswan. Since little space remained, he had to prepare a space for it at the extreme right of the façade. Thus, the only complete royal letter dating from the old Kingdom has reached us.:

“ Seal of the king Himself. Second year of His reign, third month of the season akhet, fifteenth day. Royal decree (to) the Sole Companion, Lector-Priest, chief of interpreters, Harkhuf.

I have acquainted myself with the words of your letter, which you addressed to the king in the palace to inform him that you travelled in peace to the land of Yam, with the army, which accompanied you. You said in your letter that you were bringing back all sorts of presents, important and beautiful, which Hathor, lady of Imaou, gave for the ka of the king of Upper and Lower Egypt, Neferkare- may he live eternally and forever!

If you come with him in the ship, set well-advised men about him on both sides of the boat and take care that he does not fall in the water.

Orders have been sent to the chief of the new town, Sole Companion and steward of the priests to command that victuals be taken by his care in every warehouse town and in every temple, without exception.

The History of the Moors in Europe goes back to a successful harmony of rulership for almost 1000 years.
Yet, Black Twa /Khoisan were actually the first to populate early Europe. Their presence was still in existence, living as Original peoples, as Twa Khoisan, up to their discovery by Nazis, after WWII. The Nazis gave these remaining Original Europeans the choice of sterilization or incarceration in a death camp.

Actually, Black Pete was a free man who voluntarily worked with "Sinterklaas." He had the upper hand over his counterpart and was the essential agent in the success of this operation for children.

It does matter that the tradition of black-face was most prominent and therefore most hurtful in the United States.

Black-Face was worn by Caucasian men, in the United States in the late 19th through the 20th Centuries of the U.S. For more than 100 years, an act of domestic terrorism against people of African descent, was cast as the laws of Jim Crow. The United States actually created domestic State laws against people of African descent, as a backlash to the reconstruction period, after the domestic Civil War of 1891.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Civil_War
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Names_of_the_American_Civil_War
The American Civil War was a war fought in the United States from 1861 to 1865, between the North and the South. The Civil War is the most studied and written about episode in U.S. history. Primarily as a result of the long-standing controversy over the enslavement of black people, war broke out in April 1861
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackface
But as with all things, we must find the balance between honoring what is important and adapting to the needs to respect the human dignity of all.

Ancient Origins of Leprechauns Bes the Black Twa Man



Bes the Le-Pr-Ra-Khan by Adenike AmenRa (pixels.com)






Black Le-Pr Re Ka- Khans- Geb and Bes all over the world

Ancient Origins of Leprechauns

    


As we advance to the New Year, and the new season of spring, let us not forget our original Ancient Ancestors. The Vernal Equinox, in March, is considered our New Year, where the days are just as long as the nights, and reigns in the new life of the spring. We celebrate the Blessings of the Seeds and Seedlings for a prosperous harvest during the Autumnal Equinox.  Many celebrate Our African, Indigo, and American New Year, known as Carnival or Mardi Gras / Fat Tuesday, to create a parallel universe and veil, like Santeria, from the Religious Catholic Cults, of our way of life, for a feast before the spring fasting of Lent.








These are all symbolic and parallel activities for agricultural society references of our Ancient Ancestral Agrarian societies to pay propitiation, as a request for an abundant growing season and harvest. Easter -(East-star) in the West is celebrated on the first Sunday, following the full moon, after the vernal equinox around March 20-22.

We are still paying homage and acknowledgment to Bes the Black Twa Man- the Le-Pr Ra Khan-  the original Black Magi people of the forests. They are the Ancient original inhabitants STILL LIVING in Europe and can be found all over the planet! They are the Twa/Khoisan (Pygmies) people who traveled to the four corners of the earth and establish their civilization throughout the 7(6) Continents and Islands of Europe/Asia, the Americas, Australia, and Greenland, from Akabulon. His icons can be seen all over the planet.





Bes is the True Le Pr Ra Khan! (The Sacred Time and Temple of the Sun King{Enlightenment})

Bes is the spirit of Spring, the Equinox, and the East Star.

Bes is the Ancient African Twa/ Khoisan leader who spread the way of African Civilization, sharing the laws of the natural kingdom and the universe!









Black Melanin peoples are the first to inhabit the planet. They have lived and established Civilizations and Kingdoms all over the planet for aeons. Their lifestyles of coexisting in harmony with natural life on the planet, are reflected in the characters of elves, dwarfs, leprechauns, trolls and faeries stories.


So, as for ol' St. Patrick, who was he really? Why would this man be canonized (declared to be a saint) just because he supposedly got rid of all the "snakes" in Ireland? Well here is another version.

Indigo-melanated people ARE the original "Snake Headed" people of Ireland- We are the ones who were driven off (and/or slaughtered,) in the name of a Catholic "saint" named Patrick, who ironically wore the symbols of Ptah and Ausar. Our Black Ancestors of the east knew about the powers of all of the indigenous Herbs, Roots, and plants like Clover and Thistle. We were the first Chemist, Astronomers, mathematicians, and Nautical shipbuilders. They also traveled through the inner earth. Ancient Afrikan People were the first to mine Gold and forge and electroplate golden sculptures and implements. Our Ancestars are the first mound builders and healers all over the planet. WE ARE THE 14 PIECES OF AUSAR! Everywhere a piece of Ausar's body was buried, launched, and flourished a new and prosperous Civilization!

This shines a new reference on the 1st REAL "Europeans"






The Twa/Khoisan were known as elves, midgets, or pygmy(a slur on small people of African Descent)  have a history pre-dating the Abrahamic timeline history of Adam and Eve by more than 200,000 years. The Ancient Twa people were nomadic, They journeyed and migrated to all continents and islands over the planet, spreading to Northern Ireland, Germany and the rest of Europe, and the Asian continent, and had settled in these western lands, prior to any of the influences of the Romans or later, the Roman Catholic Church. They had a cultural, technological, and philosophical impact, and influenced the establishment of societies, known as Pagans or Druids. One of the cultural influences the Druids/Twa had was the fact that they were known for their hair, who many grew into locks that looked like snakes. Much later, the Heru Loc, worn to one side of the temple, was represented in the fez or head covering that also depicted the Kemet symbols known as a Uraeus or cobra raised to strike, which is the same snake image you see worn as a Menes, by the Queens and Kings of ancient Kemet (Egypt/Nubia Ka Ma Ta). In many African cultures, the serpent is not a symbol of evil but one of eternal life, regeneration, power, protection, and wisdom. The Snake also represented the Kundalini awakening vortex found in the chakra energy traveling up our spines and the helix of our DNA. 







Later, European Catholics and Irish, venerate a mass murderer- St. Patrick, who ironically wears the regalia of the Ancient KMT East African Societies, in the dress of "Ptah" and "Ausar" - as Ol' Pat drives out the Uraeus "snake hat" Kings and snake-haired people, from Ireland. St. Patrick and his affiliations usurped the Spiritual symbols and culture of the Ancient East Africans.

Indigo people are the Le-pr-Ra-Khans (The Time and sanctuary of the Sun Kings)... 
Ausar is represented as all life green and growing. He is Green, wearing White garments representing eternity and the first Mummy. He is often holding the Crook and Flail of the Shepherd King

Dark Afrikans are the world travelers as, Twa/Khoisan, Tutsis, and KMT Nile Valley traders. Dark Indigo KRST are the "snake-hat people"... 

So St Patrick's day is their day of ritual human sacrifices, and celebrations of their Mass Genocide, of Indigo KRST by the Ku Klux Klan, Irish/US police using the Goidelic language of Ireland... They practiced the ritual of Manifest Destiny and land grab through Lynching. #Medusa #AmenAnkh #BlackLivesMatterToo

The Twa/Khoisan of Akebulan, Are the oldest people on the planet. They are the Ancients and were the FIRST people to migrate to all of the continents from Akabalon (Africa), including Australia, Greenland, Europe, Asia, and the Americas- as well as islands of Planet Earth from the Afrikan Diaspora! The Twa/Khosian Ancient Ancestors were the first inhabitants of Europe. The Twa Man was Rumplestiltskin and Swarte Pete. Later, the Caucasians appeared and began the establishment of war cults, and the destruction of the natural ecosystems. and their own environment. Many Indigo communities left Europe, and the Caucasian societies began to grow and then declined to a state of ruin with their plagues and unhygienic practices.


After thousands of years of decline, the Black-a-Moors migrated to Europe to discover Caucasians, dying out from their own offensive sanitation and unhygienic practices. The Moors found these Caucasians consumed with perpetual plagues, and with no water purification or proper sewage systems. The moors taught these people how to use soap to bathe themselves. And helped them build aquifers and proper garbage and sewage systems. The Moors brought the Caucasians out of the Black Death and the Dark Ages of illiteracy to the Renaissance of humanity, civilization, and knowledge of Ancient Arts and Sciences. Moors taught these Caucasians all of the trade routes across the planet, only to unleash old demons to run-a-muck, steal, kill and destroy as warmongers. The Moors brought these Caucasians out of the Black Death and the Dark Ages of illiteracy to the Renaissance of humanity, civilization, and knowledge of Ancient Arts and Sciences.


The Moors ignored the warning signs from the Twa/Khoisan known as Bes Ancient Ancestors to stay away from these Yacub/Yurugu. Mixed up with the calcified consciousness of Aryan Arab ideas and belief systems, The Moors felt compelled to have pity on the Caucasoid's self-imposed plight, to bring them aid, and released these Caucasians from Bes' spell of the Flat Earth. Now the Caucasian has been running rampant on a terrorist reign of the destruction of not only the Indigo Peoples but the environment of Planet Earth for more than 2000 years!


KMT Afrikans and Moors(blacks) were some of the many Afrikan Mariners, shipbuilders, Astronomers, and map makers over aeons of time; yet western textbooks often eliminate from their history, the facts that the Black Moors from Africa ruled all of Europe and Latin America, including Spain, for over 1000 years! No one remembers the names of the Moors who were the Captains of the Nina, Pinta or Santa Maria. These Shipmen had the astronomical, nautical knowledge, Protractors, compasses, and maps, to be sponsored by Queen Isabella. Columbus was just an employed explorer. These Moor Captains already knew where they were going! They just went home to the Americas. They already knew that the earth was not a disc, but indeed a sphere! It was the knowledge of the Moors that brought the Europeans out of the dark ages.


Moors and many other African civilizations were already established in the Americas ages before the presence of Columbus.

These people of African descent WERE the Native Americans! 
Native Americans have African DNA, not the other way around


The Roman Catholic Church misinterpreted and demonized the practices of these Ancient Peoples. As the Twa later transferred their knowledge to the Druids and Pagans, they began to conceal and hide this knowledge while peacefully obtaining access to land and resources. The Roman Catholics attempted to persecute and proselytize them to their religion. They would remove or replace, with Christianity, the original beliefs, customs, and symbols, along with the Leaders and Healers of the Twa people who are still present in Northern Ireland at this time. Ol' Patrick was given a commission, to set up Roman Catholic Churches all over Northern Ireland, and in the process, convert or remove the Twa and Druid influences. So Patrick killed in the genocide, countless numbers of  Twa people, in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy ghost dogma, and extremist terrorism!

So when you hear people tell you that Priest Patrick was made a saint because he removed the snakes from Northern Ireland, it's really referring to the Mass Murder Nightmare of the Uraeus or lock-headed people -the Twa, Druids, Pagans, Moors that were mass murdered in an act of genocide and ethnic cleansing!
So the Leprechaun (La-Par-Ra-Khan) represents the Black Queens, Kings, and people who were murdered all in the name of a land grab and the pirating of natural resources and our knowledge, by Christian religion and Roman Catholic dogma and proselytizing.

Not all of the Twa people were removed from Europe. The SS/ Nazi invasion of Europe, During World War II, uncovered thousands of Black Indigenous Europeans. Many of those who were captured were forced to choose between incarceration or to submit to sterilization.  http://www.africaresource.com/

Through legends surrounding the leprechaun, the image of a mischievous, shrewd, and quick-witted, Bes emerges. They are the Magi or Magicians and Shamans of the community. another Black image in Europe is a character known as Zwarte Piet or Black Pete- an ancient Moor who arrives every year to engineer SinterKlaas.


BES is the spiritual protector, promoter, and healer of the home and family.
He/She encourages fertility and watches over and teaches parents and children about their growth and development. Bes holds all of the wisdom and knowledge of the earth. Bes is Tarroette. She knows the cycles of time and the seasons. She knows the healing properties of all herbs. She is familiar with the gardens, forests, animals, insects, lakes, rivers, mountains, and caves. She knows the prayers, chants, lyrics, limericks, lullabies, bedtime stories, dances, mathematics, letters, formulas, recipes and words of power. He symbolizes the Shaman healer of the Nome or Klan. He is chemistry and physics. She represents the Sage, guardian and spiritual intuitive energy to ward off hostile energy from your family, life, home, office or wherever it is present. Bes controls The weather, the rain, and the wind, the earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Bes is the wise man Maji he has the wisdom of the elemental and electromagnetic energy. He loves gold and can draw wealth and prosperity to the home. You can find this symbolic image of Bes all over the world. The earliest images of Elves, Trolls, Leprechauns, Fairies, and Gnomes from all over the world were Black. The people are all-characteristic and symbolic of our ancient Ancestors -the Twa and Khoisan (also known as "Pigmy") Mother and Father, with their history and wisdom of nature and the universe.






GEB is usually represented in the form of a man who wears either the white crown to which is added the Atef crown or as a goose. The Goose was his sacred animal and symbol. As the God of earth, the earth personified the formed of his body and was called the "house of Geb," just as the air was called the "house of Shu," and the heaven the "house of Ra," Hence,. he was also often portrayed laying on his side on the earth and was sometimes even painted green, with plants springing from his body. Earthquakes were believed to be the laughter of Geb.



Geb is also symbolic of "Mother Goose" and the "Goose that Laid the Golden Egg" as portrayed in the Jack and the Beanstalk tale where a Giant held the goose as a captive.




Below are tapestries that depict the overthrow of the Indigenous Melinated peoples, being attacked by the "Wildmen" that came from the caves in europe...











The "Wild Men were the Caucasians who invaded and finally conquered what is known as Europe from the original populations of Twa/Khoisan They became the mulattoes that later became the linage of the Royal families of Europe to this day.


Aside from cobbling, leprechauns are tied to the idea of luck, shamrocks, and four-leaf clovers.


One plant that is native to many places is Clover. Red and white clover are perennial herbs that grow wild throughout Europe and Asia, and were naturalized to grow in North America. Clover has many medicinal properties and it is also very easy to find and harvest. It is also a great detoxifier. The red clover species vary in size. They grow from 20 to 80 cm in height and have several stems from one root. The flowers are white, dark pink or reddish-purple.

Magically speaking, clover is typically seen as a symbol of fortune and good luck. In some countries, it is used to ward off evil spirits and to help a seer develop their psychic abilities. The faithful will hang a bundle over their door to keep negative entities away or plant it in their front yards, around the edge of the property.

Red clover is a source of many nutrients including calcium, chromium, magnesium, niacin, phosphorus, potassium, thiamine, vitamin C. and rich sources of isoflavonoids. It has been used to treat or help with: cancer, whooping cough, respiratory problems, asthma and bronchitis (because it is an expectorant), an antispasmodic, a diuretic, it cleanses the liver and the blood and helps with cardiovascular health by lowering cholesterol levels. It is also used to treat: psoriasis and eczema, acne, colds, digestion, flatulence, infections, infertility, lymphatic swelling, piles, helps relieve menopausal symptoms, prostate health, and sore throats. There a variety of preparations for red clover such as; tinctures, teas, dried extracts, capsules, tablets, liquid extract, and ointments for topical applications. Red Clover Tea is typically made by adding 1 tablespoon of dried or fresh clover flowers to a cup of hot water. It is recommended to be taken three times a day.
