Basil is a symbol of fertility and in Italy, basil is known as the symbol for love because the leaves resemble hearts.  The Basil deva (plant spirit) is a protector of family, and burning basil oil will help to exorcise negativity from the home and bring good luck 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.

Used in spells for; money, love attraction, banishing, exorcising and for protection.
Basil oil is also associated with clairvoyance, commanding, divination, honesty and psychic development.

Easter The Real Meaning of the Festival of Spring


Easter- The East-Star Festival of Renewal




By: Nuta Moses Amen-Ra (C) 2010
Scarab Beetle (khepera) (Scarabaeus sacer) 
The Holy day of the East-Star was originally a celebration of renewal and rebirth for original people and ancient Ancestors. We are The Children of the Sun, the burnt skinned people known as KMT. As with most of our holidays, the celebration of life  is prominent. Our ancestors Were Agriculturalist, Builders, Hunters, Explorers, Merchants, Spiritual Travelers and stewards of the planet. Celebrating the return of early spring, honors the Mother Nature goddess known in many cultures as Ast or Auset(Isis) Ma, Eostra, Oestera, Eastre(Esther), Ishtar, Oshun, Yemaya, Het-Heru, Hathor, Aurora, or Adonis... 

Although every morning the sun "Ra" rises in the east, Easter occurs after the Vernal Equinox event on the 1st Sunday after the full moon.

In Ancient African Societies, The pregnant mothers were thought to have conceived their Children from Ra the Sun.  Goddess Auset was the first Queen Mother to experience  immaculate conception. Her husband was killed by his jealous Brother, so she had to resurrect her husband's energy after his death. Her Son- Heru was also considered the Rising Sun and the Son of the Sun (Nsdbity). 

Watching the cycles of Nature one sees that Ra the sun, Tefnut- air, atmosphere, and Nu- rain brings life to Geb- Earth, so ancient cultures saw, Nut as Heaven, and Ma as Earth Mother.

Nut the Celestial sky goddess, swallows Ra the sun at dusk and gives birth to the sun at dawn daily. Throughout the night there is a battle between Heru and his infamous Uncle Set or Sebek for the conquest of Light and Enlightenment. Every morning Heru-(Later known as Horus or Hero- and even later forms of KRST throughout the world) Becomes the victor to raise the sun with the help of Tehuti, Auset and Ausar!
  
There is a whole pantheon of stories related to the Celestial and seasonal events. The Spring is one of these joyous occasions.

Earth has been referred to as Mother since ancient times as “Mother Earth” and “Mother Nature.”

Another symbol of spring and renewal, was the Scarab Beetle (khepera) (Scarabaeus sacer). This beetle was famous for his habit of rolling balls of dung along the ground and depositing them in its burrows. First, the female would lay her eggs in the ball of dung. When they hatched, the larvae would use the ball for food. When the dung was consumed the young beetles would emerge from the hole.

It seemed that the young scarab beetles emerged spontaneously from the burrow where they were born. Therefore they were worshiped as "Khepera", "he who came forth." This creative aspect of the scarab was associated with the creator god Atum. Millions of amulets and stamp seals of stone, ceramic or other materials, were fashioned in the depiction of the scarab beetle.

The ray-like antenna on the beetle's head and its practice of dung-rolling caused the beetle to also carry solar symbolism. The scarab-beetle god Khepera was believed to push the setting sun along the sky in the same manner as the beetle with his ball of dung. In many artifacts, the scarab is depicted pushing the sun along its course in the sky.

During and following the New Kingdom, scarab amulets were often placed over the heart of the mummified deceased. These "heart scarabs" (such as the one pictured above) were meant to be weighed against the feather of truth during the final judgment. The amulets were often inscribed with a spell from the Book of the Dead which entreated the heart to, "do not stand as a witness against me."

The union of the Sun-Ra and Auset brought forth a son Heru symbolic of abundant crops, as the rains from the sky met the welcoming earth. Festivals like “The Marriage Feast of Canaan” were Spring fertility rites in ancient times which celebrated Pregnancy, the dawn of spring and fertility. The dawn of the Sun Star was in the east, so Sunrise celebrations centered on growth and renewal were celebrated. Growers celebrated to petition for abundant crops, and eggs were eaten and exchanged as talismans.

 Easter is exceptional depending on where you live in proximity to the Equator. There are only 3 seasons, instead of 4 for those living near the equator.


Other Names of Spring Goddess:


With brightening and longer days after vernal equinox,  was known as the Great Mother Goddess of the North in Europe. She is a goddess of dawn and spring, and her name derives from dawn, the light arising from East. The word, East and the female hormone, estrogen is related to her.

The Rite of Spring,


Eastre’s male consort was Ra (the Sun god), and rites of spring were celebrated in her honor on the first day of spring. Celebrations were on the first full moon following vernal equinox. The full moon represents a “pregnant” phase of Eastre, passing into fertility to give birth to the Sun’s offspring.

“Eastre” is derived from the direction East, and the Spring Goddess is associated with dawn. Eastre is related to the Indo-European Hausos, Goddess of dawn, and the Roman and Greek Goddesses, Aurora and Eos. In German Austron means dawn, derived from Aus, “to shine.” The ancient word for Spring was Eastre, and Goddesses in many cultures are celebrated as the bearer of springtime. Many Goddesses and Gods are represented as spring deities:

Aphrodite ~ Cyprus

Ashtoreth ~ Israel

Astarte ~ Greece


Auset/Ast and Heru ~ Kemet (Egypt)

Demeter ~ Mycenae
Het-Heru (Neb-Het/ Hathor)~ KMT (Egypt)
Ishtar ~ Assyria

Kali ~ India

Ostara ~ Norse Goddess of fertility


The Middle East celebrate many Spring festivals, including the Iranian Nowruz, ascension of the mythological king of Persia. Commemorated by Azerbaijan, Afghanistan, India, Turkey, Zanzibar, Albania, Kurds, and central Asia, it is a Zoroastrian holiday, and celebrated by Baha’i’ and Nizari Ismaili Muslims.

Sham El Nessim has been celebrated since 2700 B.C. the ancients celebrated this creation story with a feast at the Great Pyramid. The feast of Shemu, means ‘renewal of life’ later changed to Shu/‘shaam’ (smelling or breathing) and ‘nessim’ (breeze). Sham El Nessim is celebrated as a national holiday, and is celebrated by Christians and Muslims as “Easter Monday”.


Rabbits & Eggs

Easter represents renewal and fertility. Eggs and rabbits were considered sacred. Rabbits are potent symbol of fertility, as a female rabbit can conceive a second litter while still pregnant with the first! 

The Earth in Spring is filled with fertility and awakening. Many people Bless their homes, Newborn Babies and get married during this season and many children are born during this time. The egg is an obvious symbol, of rebirth since ancient times. The hare was a sacred animal of the Spring Moon. At vernal equinox an egg, is the symbol of New Life.

In current times Easter is just another re-enactment ritual for the massacre of our Sacred Indigo Queen Mother Womb- of Mankind and our Black Indigo KRSTal Children in Europe! This is why they "hunt" for Chocolate and "Colored" Eggs! This is the REAL anti-KRST who has come onto the world to steal from our Ancient civilizations and replace our spirituality with their religions, then to destroy our way of life and finally to kill our Heru KRSTs who are rising or resurrecting in the world! http://amen-parankh.blogspot.com/2014/07/black-male-youth-are-krst.html 
The 3 day Je-w+Zeus death/ crucifixion and resurrection reenactment was thrown in to exacerbate the ongoing lynching of people of color and to promote the inception of terror to maintain the status quo of slavery.

Remember that many people were killed or executed by lynching at that same site; Golgotha or Calvary, and on that same day, he didn't die alone. This was a ritual site for human sacrifice. Many people have been and are still being terminated even though they are innocent of any crime. They become martyrs for a cause. Lynching is crucifixion. Public Execution is now done by  the officers of another unjust system who choose to also act as judge and jury and their method of choice is a gun.






Our Mother Earth

Earth is referred to as Mother since ancient times: “Mother Earth” and “Mother Nature.” Watching the cycles of Nature one sees that rain falling brings life to Earth, so ancient cultures saw Father as Heaven, and Earth as Mother.

The union of the Sun-Ra and Auset brought forth the immaculate conception of a son Heru symbolic of abundant crops, as the rains from the sky met the welcoming earth. Festivals like “The Marriage Feast of Canaan” were Spring fertility rites in ancient times which celebrated Pregnancy. Many families would marry during this celebration.

Sunrise celebrations centered on growth and renewal. Growers celebrated to petition for abundant crops, and eggs were eaten and exchanged as talismans.

The middle east celebrates many Spring festivals, including the Iranian Nowruz, ascension of the mythological king of Persia. Commemorated by Azerbaijan, Afghanistan, India, Turkey, Zanzibar, Albania, Kurds, and central Asia, it is a Zoroastrian holiday, and celebrated by Baha’i’ and Nizari Ismaili Muslims.

Sham El Nessim has been celebrated since 2700 B.C. the ancients celebrated this creation story with a feast at the Great Pyramid. The feast of Shemu, means ‘renewal of life’ later changed to Shu/‘shaam’ (smelling or breathing) and ‘nessim’ (breeze). Sham El Nessim is celebrated as a national holiday, and is celebrated by Christians and Muslims as “Easter Monday”.
 
So essentially Easter is the celebration of the fertile womb and the lunar menstrual cycle. Easter was not always celebrated as the Ascension Christ from the dead; the meaning of Easter was quite different from what Christians celebrate today. Long before the name of Jesus, many peoples associated this festival with the coming back to life of the god of the earth Ta-mmuz (see Ezek 8:14,) also known as Geb, Ausar, Adonis Orpheus or Perseus, who had been dead in the underworld during the winter to rise in the spring. The name by which Christians still celebrate the festival is the name of the ancient fertility goddess Eastre, Ishtar, Auset, or Ashtoreth (whose name also survives in the name of one of the books of the Old Testament, the only Bible book that contains no reference to God - the Book of Esther).


Ausar is considered the god who conquered the underworld. Heru, the first to be born by Immaculate conception from Auset, Is considered to be the reborn sun in the east. 

Easter was originally (and still is) a celebration of the fertility of the earth, renewed each springtime. The egg, the chick, the rabbit, the flowers, are all fertility symbols (and much older than this latest Christian symbol). Its celebration has often been marked by sexual exuberance, pregnancy and new birth, as is still prominent in the pre-Lenten Carnivals and Mardi Gras festivals and the phallic symbolism of the May pole and the cross. Easter was celebrated as a time of new life, Beauty, sunshine, and birth. So Jesus (in the Christian version of the myth) is just the latest in a long line of gods to symbolize new life through resurrection.


The precise date of Easter has at times been a matter for contention. By the later 2nd century, it was accepted that the celebration of the holiday was a practice of the disciples and an undisputed tradition.


The First Council of Nicaea (325) established the date of Easter as the first Sunday after the full moon (the Paschal Full Moon) following the March equinox. Ecclesiastically, the equinox is reckoned to be on 21 March. So Easter is a movable feast, meaning it is not fixed on the calendar.  In Western Christianity, he date of Easter varies from 22 March to 25 April inclusive. churches in and around Rome observed the practice of celebrating Easter on the following Sunday calling it “the day of the resurrection of our Savior.”

 Eastern Christianity bases its calculations on the Julian calendar, whose 21 March corresponds, during the 21st century, to 3 April in the Gregorian calendar, and in which therefore the celebration of Easter varies between 4 April and 8 May. Initially, in the early days,

 The specific day on which the resurrection should be celebrated became a major point of contention within the church.

 If his resurrection symbolizes the eternal life that is granted to all who believe in Him, when was he crucified- To rise again in three days? Did he rise on the Sabbath or the first day of the week?

 It is the central tenet of Christian faith and theology and part of the Nicene Creed: "On the third day he rose again in accordance with the Scriptures.” The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the centerpiece of the Christian faith, according to the Apostle Paul, who even says that if Jesus Christ has not been resurrected then the Christian faith is worthless and futile (1 Cor. 15:14-17). Therefore, without Easter there is no Christianity.

 Historically, the Christian church, because it could not eradicate the celebration of what was considered a Pagan festival, reinterpreted it and assigned to it a new meaning, but was unable to erase completely its original significance. The egg and the rabbit,  and the phallic pole, has persisted to be loved and celebrated as the new life which the spring brings.

At Amen Par Ankh We celebrate The Vernal Equinox as the ending of winter. Now the Days will be longer and the nights will grow shorter until the Summer Solstice. We begin planting during the First New Moon. This is a time when we Glean new life and Ground  from the soft land, Sprout fresh seeds for planting and sun-gaze to reset our 3rd eye from the winter.

A Vegetarian Lifestyle to Heal the Hood

I used to be a strict vegan.  Now I'm vegetarian in the spring and summer and tend to eat a little fish and fowl as a garnish, in the fall and winter. I have learned that we hardly need to eat as much in portion of meat as we presently do. Eating meat as a garnish for me is like adding a little smoked turkey in my pot of beans greens for the oil and flavor, not as a main course.


What Is Food?

Food is any substance which is eventually converted into body tissues, body fluids, etc., and can be utilized by the organs in the performance of its functions. To be correctly classified as a food, a substance must:

Be capable of liberating energy when oxidized;
Be capable of being utilized for growth, maintenance and repair;
Be capable of being stored within the body and
Produce no nutritionally significant toxic effects

Nutrients in foods are chemical substances of known composition and structure, classified as carbohydrates (such as sugar, starch and glycogen); lipids (fats); proteins (amino acids linked together); salts (minerals); and vitamins, needed in small quantities (or, traces) by the body. In addition, foods contain indigestible materials—cellulose (fiber). Water, oxygen and vitamins, together with proteins, carbohydrates, fats and minerals, constitute the body—the blood, tissue, bones, organs, muscles etc. Foods must be taken into the digestive tract and prepared for use by the organism before their constituents may be used by the body.
Some plants are processed and eaten as food but they contain large amounts of oxalic acid and other poisons, and should not be used as food. Many plants which contain smaller trace amounts of oxalic acid are excellent foods. On the other hand, tobacco, cotton, soybeans, which are plants, contain proteins, carbohydrates, minerals, vitamins and water, which are the constituents of food. But these plants also contains considerable quantities of poisons. One of these is one of the most virulent poisons known to science. Therefore, tobacco, for instance cannot be a food. So soybeans and cotton seed oils can become controversial.

Why do we eat meat?

I speculate that human meat eating began as a necessity, when there was scarce vegetation, perhaps for those who migrated as pastoral herders, in deserts and eventually to colder, northern regions with a lack of sun. This migration was probably due to overpopulation in tropical or highly vegetative regions of the Earth (who would want to leave paradise and move to the cold?) I suppose that vegetable nutrients were acquired second hand, through the consumption of vegetable eating animals. This new location and food consumption style must have transformed anatomical and survival/thinking structures in people as well. It is true that you are what you eat yet, some people mistake meat as the only source for protein in their diet, ignoring the bounty of nuts and beans as an excellent source.

The Best Food Is Raw Food

In our discussion of food combining, cooked foods and flesh foods will be mentioned. Uncooked foods from the plant kingdom constitute the ideal Hygienic diet, for those not yet ready to use exclusively raw plant foods, information on food combining of other foods is included.

Food Combinations
I have learned that food portions and food combinations are a major factor in our diet. we eat way too much meat and processed carbohydrates, like yeast breads, pastas, Potatoes and rice. My new motto is "be a bigot to "white" foods!" Most white foods have been devitalized of nutrients and digestive content. White processed -flours, white rice, potatoes, white (and yellow) processed corn, and other processed starches, sugars, salt, etc., are so deleterious to our bodies. Also, to realize the genetic modification and growth hormones in these foods are veracious. So, the pursuit of whole foods are preferred.

'Food combining' refers to the choice of combination of foods which are compatible with each other -digestive chemistry. Food combining is a basic component of optimal nutrition because it allows the body to digest and utilize the nutrients in our foods to their fullest extent. By following the two basic rules below,
  1. Eat Proteins- with Fruit or Vegetables- Never eat a concentrated protein (meats) and a concentrated carbohydrates (breads, pasta sugar) at the same meal. (ie. cheeseburgers!)
  2. Eat Vegetables and Fruits separately- never at the same meal. (ie. Smoothies) 
HONORABLE DR. SEBI addressed many of our human dietary misconceptions. His perspective is to clear fungus, and acid- that feed bacteria and cancer from our bodies and modify our diet by eliminating mucus producing foods like dairy, meat and processed starch which causes inflammation. I think it’s important to teach our children right knowledge, in order to overcome our own self-inhalation. We must find ways to balance our Eco system and live more harmoniously with nature.  http://amen-parankh.blogspot.com/2013/07/electric-foods-how-can-eating-electric.html

I know that children are our future

In conclusion, we know that food is our fuel- as we become what we put into our mouths. I was amazed to see the statistics of the main causes of death in the African American population, to find that homicide is the 5th or 6th leading cause of death. Before that, Heart Attack, Stroke, Diabetes, Cancers, and High Blood Pressure ranked higher in the causes of death. Under the circumstances of high stress and outright hate that has been mounted upon Black people, the idea that we are killing ourselves more by what we put into our mouths than homicide, and how we think and feel to resort in killing, can be founded in what we put into our mouths, became a profound quest for solution, if not only for our seeds of the future- our children. I began to place my energy into teaching young people how to make healthy choices. In lower income neighborhoods, our children are under an onslaught of Fast Frankenstonian Fake Foods, often the primary food choices in the community. Even the nearest grocery store will be filled with low quality GMO varieties of foodstuff, that have gone through a tumultuous process for long-term preservation.


This process launch the initiative to Heal the Hood. My goal was to begin teaching healthy eating and positive life giving lifestyles into our youth. Many young people are found in a "latch key" state, where they spend time after school alone with few choices of good foods to eat. Then the parents may be likely to order pizzas or bring home a bag of junk food -chicken-ish or burglars and fries on their way home. Encouraging real fruit over a pop tart can be a challenge.

I choose to teach by example and started growing herbs and vegetables, right in my front yard. We forage local Dandelions, Clover, and Plantain, cooked as spring greens or juiced as a green energy shots or mixed into other fruit or veggie beverages. We collect the walnuts and acorns in the fall, capture maple and elm juice to make syrup and compost local leaves with food scraps, coffee grounds and barbershop hair ...

Plantain Builds your immune system!
