Sounds in The Mulberry Tree

There is another famous tree tied to conquering the Raphaim. That is the Mulberry Tree.

There is a saying among man kings in the 7th century BCE; “When you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry trees” said their God, “You can take down the Giants in the Valley of Raphaim.”

What does this mean to a king?   To know the secret kept within the hidden meanings of such signs, that king must be well versed in the writings of his forefathers and other historians.  Greek mythology tales involving the mulberry tree give another level to what SOUND the king is supposed to listen for.  But, you have to know the WHOLE story to understand the signs their God was pointing to.

A Babylonian etiological myth, attributes the reddish-purple color of the mulberry fruits to the tragic deaths of the lovers Pyramus and Thisbe. Meeting under a mulberry tree. Thisbe commits suicide by sword after Pyramus was killed by the lioness because he believed that Thisbe was eaten by her (lioness). Their splashed blood stained the previously white fruit, and the gods forever changed the mulberry’s colour to honour their forbidden love. (A) Wikipedia

So, what does this knowledge tell a king?

I believe it means:  If you hear the sound of the lion (the face of you enemy) appearing to kill your hope, don’t believe it.  Yes, the lioness is lurking for whom she can devour, but the real woman (your love, your hope) is not yet dead.  Yet, the giants think the lioness has convinced YOU – the weak minded to give up and kill yourself having lost all hope. But, don’t give up.

The Raphaim giants will NOT be expecting you to rise up and be still alive, ready for war. Go up and AROUND them this time – fake them out and catch them off guard – you will win!”

 

NOTE: William Shakespeare is believed to have based his infamous tragic love story of Romeo and Juliet on the legend tied to the Mulberry Tree.

Celtic-Saxons

If it is true and the a nation of hue-mans, specifically the Celtic-Saxons are hunted by the Raphaim giants as they rant, “Fee Fi Fo Fum” (See blog about Raphaim) than the plots of my novels may be on to something given this next bit of information:

Some believe their is historical “evidence that the Celtic-Saxons peoples are the continuation of God’s servant race of man and nation of Israel.”(A)

The Raphaim

Raphaim are the giants of antiquity that King Solomon wrote about during his days great sorcerery in his mystical Keys of Solomon book. He claimed “Raphaim could only be vanquished by the Vau, which is the sword of Michael and generations of travail and pain.”(A)

These giants were thought to have been extinct, but seemed to only escaped to new lands, appearing to have first founded the Hebride Isles before the Vikings ever arrived. They were famous for desiring to eat Englishmen by the droves, hunting their blood and flesh, “Fee Fi Fo Fum, I smell the blood of an Englishman.”

The Key of the Solomon Kin, Translated by S. Liddell MacGregor Mathers, 1972, p.123

Glastonbury Tree

In England every year there is a Glastonbury Festival.  Not many are aware of the beginnings of this festival or the meaning behind it’s name.  Glastonbury Tree is where the famous Merlin was said to have resided when the fairy Vivian visited him, stole his powers and caused him to fall into a sleep of death.  There is rumor that Vivian was also the fate Morgana, whom Odin agreed to sleep with to gain wisdom over the Raphaim in 1300 BCE.
