The Ancient Gods have returned!
The Pleiades.
The Pleiadeans represent a
very unique mythology having roots not only in modern alien conspiracy theory
but in most major religious belief sets on the planet. I can't name another
occurrent that stands out so blatantly as our belief or interpretation of the Pleiadeans.
When we talk about any
belief system we like to point out when we can where they give the origins of a
particular Deity or a particular occurrence. we can easily say where the Pleiadeans
come from. which is the Pleiades star cluster . Which is in the Taurus
constellation. This is an important notation because the Taurus star system is the
celestial home of the Aesir of Norse mythology.
Norse mythology makes reference to another people who they saw as equals,
who were in this case called the Vanier.
So let's understand a little
bit about the star cluster.
The Pleiades star cluster,
also known as the Seven Sisters and Messier 45, are an open star cluster
containing middle-aged, hot B-type stars in the north-west of the constellation
Taurus. It is among the star clusters nearest Earth and is the cluster most obvious
to the naked eye in the night sky.
Distance to Earth: 444.2
light years.
Radius: 17.5 light years.
Constellation: Taurus.
Coordinates: RA 3h 47m 24s |
Dec +24° 7′ 0″
Other designations: M45,
Seven Sisters, Melotte 22.
Age: 100 million years.
In UFOlogy, Nordic aliens are humanoid
extraterrestrials purported to come from the Pleiades who resemble
Nordic-Scandinavians. Professed contactees describe them as being six to seven
feet tall (about two meters) with long blonde hair, blue eyes, and fair skin. UFOlogist George Adamski is credited with
being among the first to claim contact with Nordic aliens in the mid 1950s, and
scholars note that the mythology of extraterrestrial visitation from beings
with features described as Aryan often include claims of telepathy,
benevolence, and physical beauty.
Kemetic Beliefs.
According to Kemetic
traditions, the seven stars, represent an open invitation to seekers to a more refined level of
consciousness. Viewed as a “school of learning” only those who have been
purified of energetic block. Invitation to and initiation into the Pleiadian
wisdom teachings come during deep
meditation. The Pleiades are also viewed as our solar system’s source of
electrical energy from the little sister star Electra.
The Pleiades in Norse,
Celtic, and Bronze Age Mythology.
To Scandinavian, or Viking
cultures, the Pleiades were thought of as Freyja’s children, Frejya being the
Norse goddess of love, beauty, and fertility. For protection, some would paint
seven spots, representing the seven stars, of this star system. Ladybugs were
associated with the cluster because of the seven spots on their wings.
The Pleiades in Asian
Cosmologies.
The first astronomical
mention of the star cluster was in the Chinese Annals of roughly 2350 BC and
was referred to as the Blossom Stars or Flower Stars.
The sprawling Xiaoling
Mausoleum the tomb complex of the founder of the Ming Dynasty. when viewed from
the air, the tomb complex echos the arrangement of the visible Pleiadian stars.
Called the “treasure mound,” the tomb is said to hold “great cosmic secrets
beyond gold treasure.”
In Japan, the Pleiades,
relates to the cultural value of “harmonious grouping,” a foundational , characteristic of samurai and shogun
societies.
According to myth,
Amaterasu, the Japanese sun goddess quarreled with her brother Susanowo, the
embodiment of the power of nature. Intimidated, she hid in a cave. The world
went dark, and to entice her back out, the gods gave a string of seven
brilliant jewels that would later be called the Pleiades cluster.
In Hindu mythology the seven
sisters, are called the Krrtika.
In Vedic astrology, One born
under the influences of the sisters is said to be fiery, warlike, and
adventurous.
Native American Pleiades
Myths.
A Cherokee myth tells the
story of seven boys who rose into the heavens and became the Pleiades cluster,
“The Iroquois, Chumash, Zuni, Cheyenne, and
Blackfoot have all labeled the shining collection as an important source of
enlightenment.
.
This is a small sample of Pleiadean
myth and symbolism. This relatively tiny star cluster has taken on
proportionally huge significance in almost every ancient tradition and
cosmology. In both ancient and modern cult. They remain present.
The Pleiadian, the children of the 7 sisters,
the Nordics or Vanir have always beena friend to mankind, Or so mythology tells
us.

Ahura Mazda representó el Cielo y encarnó la sabidurÃa, la fecundidad y la benevolencia de su oponente y también su creación fue Angra Mainyu Dios de la oscuridad y la esterilidad.
HabÃa otras deidades, pero la vida era esencialmente una lucha entre los dos dioses del bien y del mal. En el siglo VII o VI a. C. E, el profeta Zoroastro, fundador del zoroastrismo, declaró a Ahura Mazda como único digno de adoración absoluta. Ahura Mazda era la esencia de la naturaleza benéfica. creador del cielo y de la tierra, fuente de la ley y la moral y juez supremo del universo.
A los 30 años participó en un festival de primavera como miembro de una familia sacerdotal y uno de sus deberes era sacar agua de la parte más profunda y pura del arroyo para la ceremonia matutina. AquÃ, en el rÃo Daytia, conoció al ángel Vohu Mana.
La entidad le preguntó a Zoroastro quién era y qué era lo más importante en su vida. A lo que Zoroastro respondió que lo que más deseaba era ser recto, puro y sabio. Con esta respuesta, se le concedió una visión de Ahura Mazda y sus arcángeles de quienes aprendió los principios que llevarÃan a la religión conocida tarde como zoroastrismo.
Se convierte en el dios de la luz y la verdad en el concepto zoarastriano de dualismo.
Su asistente principal fue Mitra. Según el mito, su primera creación fue un toro salvaje. Tuvo que ser confiado a una cueva para controlar a la bestia. Se escapó y Mitra se encargó de encontrar llenar al animal. Cuando la bestia fue asesinada, la sangre cayó a la Tierra y creó la vida.
Se convierte en el dios de la luz y la verdad en el concepto zoarastriano de dualismo. Su descendencia incluye PodrÃa haber sido un hijo amoroso Gayomart, el arquetipo masculino.
Más allá, aparte y sin él, no existe nada. Él es inmutable, se mueve todo mientras nadie lo mueve, no tiene igual y nadie puede quitarle los cielos. Favorece al hombre justo, defendiendo la verdad y el comportamiento correcto. Ahura Mazda creó los espÃritus gemelos, Angra Mainyu, el espÃritu destructivo, y Spenta Meynu, el buen espÃritu.

Silence in Communication.
Silence is the absence of ambient audible sound, the
emission of sounds of such low intensity that they do not draw attention to
themselves, or the state of having ceased to produce sounds; this latter sense
can be extended to apply to the cessation or absence of any form of
communication, whether through speech or other medium.
Sometimes speakers fall silent when they hesitate in
searching for a word, or interrupt themselves before correcting themselves.
Discourse analysis shows that people use brief silences to mark the boundaries
of prosodic units, in turn-taking, or as reactive tokens, e.g., as a sign of
displeasure, disagreement, embarrassment, desire to think, confusion, and the
like. Relatively prolonged intervals of silence can be used in rituals; in some
religious disciplines, people maintain silence for protracted periods, or even
for the rest of their lives, as an ascetic means of spiritual transformation.
Rhetorical Silence.
Silence may become an effective rhetorical practice when
people choose to be silent for a specific purpose. It has not merely been recognized as a theory
but also as a phenomenon with practical advantages. Rhetorical silence cannot
be explained since it happens when lack of communication is not expected. When
silence becomes rhetorical, it is intentional since it reflects a meaning.
There are always some meanings, intentions, and goals that cannot be expressed
linguistically in words and there are always voices that cannot be raised
through sounds, rather they are all reflected through silence.
These rhetorical practices lead to the articulation of new
meanings.
Silence functions as a rhetorical strategy. It is used as a voice to empower one or a
group of people. Silence has a power to neutralize power. In other words, it is a construct used against
any type of inequality, oppression, and injustice.
This silence (muteness) reflects the voice of
resistance. Some social animal species
communicate the signal of potential danger by stopping contact calls and
freezing, without the use of alarm calls, through silence.
In spirituality.
"Silence" in spirituality is often a metaphor for
inner stillness. A silent mind, freed from the onslaught of thoughts and
thought patterns, is both a goal and an important step in spiritual
development. Such "inner silence" is not about the absence of sound;
instead, it is understood to bring one in contact with the divine, the ultimate
reality, or one's own true self, one's divine nature.[10] Many religious
traditions imply the importance of being quiet and still in mind and spirit for
transformative and integral spiritual growth to occur. In Christianity, there
is the silence of contemplative prayer such as centering prayer and Christian
meditation; in Islam, there are the wisdom writings of the Sufis who insist on
the importance of finding silence within. In Buddhism, the descriptions of
silence and allowing the mind to become silent are implied as a feature of
spiritual enlightenment. In Hinduism, including the teachings of Advaita
Vedanta and the many paths of yoga, teachers insist on the importance of
silence, Mauna, for inner growth. Ramana Maharishi, a revered Hindu sage, said,
"The only language able to express the whole truth is silence."
Perkey Avot, the Jewish Sages guide for living, states that, "Tradition is
a safety fence to Torah, tithing a safety fence to wealth, vows a safety fence
for abstinence; a safety fence for wisdom ... is silence." In some
traditions of Quakerism, communal silence is the usual context of worship
meetings, in patient expectancy for the divine to speak in the heart and mind. In the Baha'i Faith, Baha'u'llah said in
"Words of Wisdom", "the essence of true safety is to observe
silence". Eckhart Tolle says that silence can be seen either as the
absence of noise, or as the space in which sound exists, just as inner
stillness can be seen as the absence of thought, or the space in which thoughts
are perceived.
Commemorative silence.
A common way to remember a tragic incident and to remember
the victims or casualties of such an event is a commemorative moment of
silence.
In law
The right to silence is a legal protection enjoyed by people
undergoing police interrogation or trial in certain countries. The law is
either explicit or recognized in many legal systems.
In Music.
Music inherently depends on silence, in some form or
another, to distinguish other periods of sound and allow dynamics, melodies,
and rhythms to have greater impact.
Silence is the tool of the assassin, the deadly plague and
calm before the storm.
Silence can be both peaceful and oppressive. Its is said
that silence can be deafening.
Space isn’t silent. It’s abuzz with charged particles that —
with the right tools — we can hear.

Togo officially the Togolese Republic is a country in West
Africa bordered by Ghana to the west, Benin to the east and Burkina Faso to the
north. The country extends south to the Gulf of Guinea, where its capital Lomé
is located. Togo covers 57,000 square kilometres (22,008 square miles), making
it one of the smallest countries in Africa, with a population of approximately
8 million, 9 as well as one of the
narrowest countries in the world with a width of less than 115 km (71 mi)
between Ghana and its slightly larger eastern neighbor, Benin
From the 11th to the 16th centuries, various ethnic groups
settled the Togo region. Various tribes
moved into the country from all sides - the Ewe from Benin, and the Mina and
the Guin from Ghana. These three groups settled along the coast.
when Portuguese explorers arrived in 1471, there are signs
of Ewe settlement for several centuries before their arrival. From the 16th to
the 18th centuries, the coastal region became a major slave trading center and
the surrounding region took on the name
of "The Slave Coast." For during these 200 years, the coastal region
was a major trading center for Europeans in search of slaves. Established by
the Portuguese.
The German Empire established the protectorate of Togoland
(in what is now the nation of Togo and most of what is now the Volta Region of
Ghana) in 1884 during the period generally known as the "Scramble for
Africa".
At the outbreak of the First World War in 1914 the colony
was drawn into the conflict. It was invaded and quickly overrun by British and
French forces during the Togoland campaign and placed under military rule. In
1916 the territory was divided into separate British and French administrative
zones, and this was formalized in 1922 with the creation of British Togoland
and French Togoland.
The Country gained independence in 1960 but was placed under
a hard-handed single-family rule. Since 2007, the country along a gradual path
to democratic reform. Togo has since held multiple presidential and legislative
elections deemed generally free and fair by international observers.

A succession of military governments ended in 1972 with the
rise to power of Mathieu KEREKOU and the establishment of a government based on
Marxist-Leninist principles. A move to representative government began in 1989.
Two years later, free elections ushered in former Prime Minister Nicephore
SOGLO as president, marking the first successful transfer of power in Africa
from a dictatorship to a democracy. KEREKOU was returned to power by elections
held in 1996 and 2001, though some irregularities were alleged. KEREKOU stepped
down at the end of his second term in 2006 and was succeeded by Thomas YAYI
Boni, a political outsider and independent, who won a second five-year term in
March 2011. Patrice TALON, a wealthy businessman, took office in 2016 after

Economic overview
The free market economy of Benin has grown consecutively for
four years, though growth slowed in 2017, as its close trade links to Nigeria
expose Benin to risks from volatile commodity prices. Cotton is a key export
commodity, with export earnings significantly impacted by the price of cotton
in the broader market. The economy began deflating in 2017, with the consumer
price index falling 0.8%.

Randga, called the Dancing witch.
Origin
Balinese Mythology
A fierce sorceress Queen of Balinese myth. Randa which means
widow is depicted as near naked with long hair and nails. Her immortal opponent
is the King Barong. The combat between Rangdo and Barong acted out in bellany's
dance always ends with the wrong vanquishing rangda. Rangdum may have
originated in Notorious 11th century Queen of Bali.
Rangda is the demon queen of the leyaks in Bali, according
to traditional Balinese mythology. Terrifying to behold, the child-eating
Rangda leads an army of evil witches against the leader of the forces of good,
Barong.
It is suggested that Rangda may be derived from the 11th
century Javan queen Mahendradatta who was exiled by the king, Dharmodayana, for
allegedly practicing witchcraft. The tale surrounding this is that she
proceeded to take her revenge by killing off half the kingdom, which by then
belonged to her and Dharmodayana's son Erlangga, with plague before being
overcome by a holy man. The name Rangda itself means "widow" in old
Javanese and Balinese language. It may also be associated with the legend of a
demon queen named Calon Arang, who wreaked havoc in late 10th century Java,
during the reign of Airlangga.
Rangda is important in Balinese culture, and performances
depicting her struggles with Barong or with Airlangga in that tale are popular
tourist attractions as well as tradition. She is depicted as a mostly nude old
woman, with long and unkempt hair, pendulous breasts and claws. Her face is
traditionally a horrifying fanged and goggle-eyed mask, with a long, protruding
tongue.
It has been suggested that Rangda may be closely associated
with the Hindu warrior mother goddess Durga, or the black goddess of
destruction Kali, given that Bali is a Hindu island. While Rangda is mainly
seen as fearsome and a personification of evil, she is also seen as a protective
figure in some parts of Bali. The colors associated with Rangda are red, black
and white, and these colors are also associated with Kali, and her iconography
is also similar to Kali. Mahendradatta, the queen Rangda might be based on, was
known for her devotion to the cult of Durga in Bali.
