Flags Signify Captured Territory

Symbolizing a country, movement or idea they denote conquest or loyalty

Historically, the first thing done by a conquering country is to plant their flag, a symbol of their country, to claim a territory. This ritual has been done throughout history everywhere. Knowing the significance of signs and symbols is one key to understanding the world around us.

The Pride flag, its history, and where and how it is displayed signifies deeper meaning that is used to persuade and even compel certain behavior, transforming the status quo of society and the way people think.

Keep in mind, this blog isn’t making judgments about whether someone or something is good or bad, we merely point out the signs and symbols in our world so you can use your own discernment to decide for yourself what you believe to be good or bad. Good and bad people and things are everywhere.

One of the most famous war photos, this is the raising of the flag over Iwo Jima during WWII. The flag planting signified the transfer of control of the island of Iwo Jima from Japan to the USA. (AP photo by Joe Rosenthal, in the public domain).

Here’s another example:

Here’s the video of Apollo 14 crew planting the U.S. flag on the moon:

It’s a lot of work to bring a flag to a distant place, and then go through the ritual ceremony of “planting the flag”. Everyone seems to be doing it.

China has also planted a flag on the moon with their rover:

China is the only other country to have planted a flag on the moon, besides the U.S.

Other countries (India, Russia and Israel) have landed or crashed probes into the moon, so they didn’t manage to have a lunar flag planting ritual.

Here is another flag in history that is reviled; the Nazi flag and it was displayed in flag and banner form and displayed at massive rallies and prominently placed on important buildings. Hitler designed it himself, plagiarizing the swastika which is an ancient and good symbol. Much more about the swastika at another post “Hitler and the Swastika’s Magic” at Decode the World.

Flags signify possession of buildings and territories and loyalties to ideals. There are laws to protect flags, including those of nations and others.

A popular meme about flag burning. One is free speech, the other is a “hate crime”. In Iowa, a man was sentenced to “about 15 years” in jail for burning a Pride flag.” Under communism, you must be very careful what you say and what you do. Punishment can be severe.

The Cooperative Movement Created the OG Rainbow Flag

From Wikipedia:

A seven-colour rainbow flag is a common symbol of the international cooperative movement. The rainbow flag has been the cooperative emblem since 1921 when the International Co-operative Congress of World Co-op Leaders met in Basel, Switzerland to identify and define the growing cooperative movement's common values and ideals to help unite co-ops around the world.

In Essen, Germany in 1922, the International Co-operative Alliance (ICA) designed an international co-op symbol and a flag for the first "Co-operators' Day," which was held in July 1923. After some experiments with different designs, a famous French cooperator, Charles Gide, suggested using the seven colours of the rainbow for the flag. He pointed out that the rainbow symbolized unity in diversity and the power of light, enlightenment and progress. The first co-op rainbow flag was completed in 1924 and was adopted as an official symbol of the international cooperative movement in 1925.

This flag was originally designed with all seven colors of the rainbow. In a bit, you will see how this godly icon was later transformed into something else.

The Pride Flag was Created in San Francisco

Like many things, the Pride flag got it’s start in San Francisco. San Francisco is the place where all the most important decisions about the world are being hatched and approved. LINK to more background in this post about the APEC meeting in San Francisco in 2023.

According to Google’s generative AI:

“The pride flag, also known as the rainbow flag, originated in San Francisco in 1978:

• Harvey Milk: San Francisco's first openly gay elected official and a member of the Board of Supervisors, asked his friend Gilbert Baker to design a symbol for the gay community. Baker, an artist, Vietnam War veteran, and drag queen, had already considered the idea of a flag two years earlier.

• Gilbert Baker and Lynn Segerblom: Baker collaborated with his friend Lynn Segerblom, also known as Faerie Argyle Rainbow, to create the flag. The original flag had eight colors, each with its own symbolic meaning:

  • Pink: Sex

  • Red: Life

  • Orange: Healing

  • Yellow: Sunlight

  • Green: Nature

• Turquoise: Magic

  • Blue: Serenity

• Purple: Spirit

• Debut: The flag debuted at the San Francisco Gay Freedom Day Parade on June 25, 1978. Baker and Segerblom hand-stitched and hand-dyed the flag at a community center.

• Modifications: After Milk's assassination in November 1978, demand for the flag increased. Baker made several modifications, including removing the hot pink stripe because the color and dye were not readily available. In 1979, he settled on the six-stripe version that's still used today.”

If you recall, the rainbow in real life has 7 colors; seven is a godly number. More from the alien inside the Google AI:

The number seven is considered to be a godly number in the Bible, appearing more than any other number in scripture. It can symbolize perfection, completeness, or wholeness, and is often used to represent the pinnacle or completion of something. For example, the seven days of creation, the seven days of a week, and the seven lamps on the Temple Menorah are all examples of seven's use in the Bible.

Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet (ROY G BIV) are SEVEN colors.

Why now six instead of seven colors in this flag? Six is a magick number used to cast spells. It’s been used for all sorts of spells, including 6-foot social distancing for COVID (zero scientific reason for that number), 6m deaths in the Holocaust and the hexagram. You can decide for yourself what this means.

Here are some places you can find the Pride flag.

From The Lancaster Patriot:

The recent hanging of the Pride Progress flag, however, is raising further concerns among some who claim that it violates the US Flag Code that mandates that the American flag is at the center of any display of flags.

Tom Fitton, president of Judicial Watch, said in a tweet Sunday that the display violated rules concerning the American flag.

“To advance revolutionary transgender agenda targeting children, Biden violates basic tenet of US Flag Code and disrespects every American service member buried under its colors,” wrote Fitton. “U.S. Flag Code §7. (e) The flag of the United States of America should be at the center and at the highest point of the group when a number of flags of States or localities or pennants of societies are grouped and displayed from staffs.”

The Pride flag in it’s variations is also displayed on streets, in store windows and painted on streets.

Here’s a video of some kids “defacing” Pride street art.

From Washington Times:

Three teenagers were arrested on June 5 for using their Lime e-scooters to create black scuff marks on the colorful Pride flag crosswalk at Howard Street and Spokane Falls Boulevard. The offense carries a maximum of five years in prison under the state’s newly enhanced felony hate crime law.

Flags Are Territorial Markers

Flags have traditionally been used to denote territorial possession. The Pride flag is part of this tradition and it’s mainly seen in large cities around the world. Places in the countryside tend to be more traditional and you won’t see as many Pride flags.

Additionally, flags and the symbols on them are visible signs of the spell people are under and they can be used as banners, badges, stickers, paintings, etc. Any iconic image with the correct symbolism and meaning will do. You can tell by the reaction of someone under a spell —they will have an immediate and sometimes violent response when you challenge their thinking.

Even good people can fall under a spell — and they might fundamentally agree with something at the same time their mind is under the spell. Conversely, they might not be under a spell and still believe in some of the fundamentals of a movement, so long as it conforms to Truth, Compassion and Tolerance, the cosmic characteristic, there are good and bad aspects to everything, after all. To remove yourself from the power of a spell you must change your mind.
