THE GREEN PARTY - Yodh


Scarecrow: Come along, Dorothy. You don't want any of those apples.
Apple Tree: Are you hinting my apples aren't what they ought to be?
Scarecrow: Oh, no. It's just that she doesn't like little green worms! 





Yodh (also spelled Yud or Yod or Jod or Jodh) is the tenth letter of many Semitic alphabets, including Phoenician, Aramaic and Hebrew. 

Yodh is thought to have originated with a pictograph of a hand, ultimately deriving from Proto-Semitic *yad... . It may be related to the Egyptian hieroglyphic of an arm.

THE GREEN PARTY - Teth


GREEN EYED MONSTER

We all know it as jealousy, but how?  It goes back to the Shakespearean Play "Orthello" in Act IIIShakespeare used a cat's green eyes to represent jealousy and referred to it as "Green Eyed Monster" in the plays, the phrase just caught on!
 

The Phoenician letter name ṭēth means "wheel"

The letter possibly continues a Middle Bronze Age glyph named ṭab "good", Tav in Arameic and Tov טוב in Hebrew, ṭayyib طيب in modern Arabic, based on the nfr "good"  hieroglyph Jewish scripture books about the "holy letters" from the 10th century and on discuss the connection or origin of the letter Teth with the word Tov, and the Bible uses the word 'Tov' in alphabetic chapters to depict the letter.

THE GREEN PARTY - Heth

Green is a tree hidden in the forest,
Or that little green store owned by Betty the florist.
Green plays across our minds like a little wooden fife,
Green is the elaborate, well-defined, picture frame of life

~ Alex Miller ~


  Green is the beautiful grass,
Luscious under our feet.
Gentle and calm, a color so sweet.
With it, God painted the world until his satisfaction was complete.
Heth - Phoenician  letter corresponding to the numeral eight.  Heth
The letter shape ultimately goes back to a hieroglyph for "courtyard"




(possibly named ḥasir in the Middle Bronze age alphabets, while the name goes rather back to ḫayt, the name reconstructed for a letter derived from a hieroglyph for "thread".






This is Heth..  say hello!  O6

THE GREEN PARTY - Zayin

We do not rejoice in victories. We rejoice when a new kind of cotton is grown and when strawberries bloom in Israel.   
Golda Meir 
~




STRAWBERRY ALARM CLOCK.....The most amazing band of the psychedelic-era of the 1960's, most know for their psychedelic classic "Incense And Peppermints". They released four studio albums in the 60's. Incense And Peppermints (1967), Wake Up... It's Tomorrow (1968), World In A Sea Shell (1968) and Good Morning Star shine (1969). There's also a compilation from their original band called Three Sixpence "Step By Step, which is a more of a Garage Rock compilation rather than Psychedelic Rock.

Each album has a completely different sound to the other. And right now this legendary band is in the process of making a new album which will hopefully be released in 2011, since they've been working on it for years now.

On February 14, 2010, founding member Lee Freeman died, at the age of 60, from complications arising from Cancer.

Zayen 
 - In the Phoenician alphabet zayen has the numerical value of seven (7).

THE GREEN PARTY - He

Green Day - "Wake Me When September Ends"

Here comes the rain again falling from the stars, 
drenched in my pain again becoming who we are.








Green is the colour of balance and harmony and can, therefore, be helpful in times of stress. If one has experienced a trauma, a piece of green silk wrapped around the shoulders can have a very therapeutic effect.

 The legend of Phoenix, the bird consumed by fire only to regenerate, is based upon the Phoenician people, whose land was occupied and towns destroyed many times by warlike peoples, only to regenerate time and again.  In fact, the Greeks were the ones that named the seafarers the phoenicians, or phoinikes, the singular of which is phoinix.  The Romans spelled it Phoenix!

He - The fifth letter of the Phoenician Alphabet.

THE GREEN PARTY - Daleth

 Flash ahead to a yummy playback, Just you and me in a room, Double dreaming a page at a time in the Green Book .  Steely Dan


Green represents ‘go’ in traffic signals, railway signals ands ship signals. It is known as a safe colour worldwide which is why first-aid equipment is often green.  

Before the 1950's Santa's suit was originally GREEN until Coca-Cola bought him out and changed his suit to RED.

In Ireland and Scotland especially, green is used to represent Catholics, while orange is used to represent protestantism. This is shown on the National Flag of Ireland.

Green around the gills means your unwell.
In reference, "a bit green", not real smart, immature.


The Aramaic alphabet, a modified form of Phoenician, was the ancestor of the modern Arabic and Hebrew scripts. 


The queen came to Australia in 1977 as part of the Silver Jubilee of Her Majesty's reign.  I saw her in Tamworth, I bought a new dress to wear and it was Royal Blue and Green and very beautiful.

Daleth - fouth  letter in the Phoenician alphabet of 22 symbols.

THE GREEN PARTY - gimmel


Virginia Woolf 
"Up here my eyes are green leaves, unseeing." 
Virginia Wolf   (The Waves)


The baggy green is the evolution of a cricket cap of green colour, which has been worn by Australian Test cricketers  since around the turn of the twentieth century

Jake Green isn't just Jake Green. Jake represents all of us. The color green is the central column of the spectrum and the name Jake has all sorts of numerical values. All things come back to him within the film's world of cons and games.   Guy Richie


Most of the original parts of the Hebrew Bible, the Old Testament, were originally written down as transliterated ancient Hebrew language using the Phoenician alphabet. 
Because: in Judaism YHVH (Yahweh) was too sacred for common usage to be written, it was replaced by "God" or "Lord." Because it is a four letter Hebrew word, it came to be called "Tetragrammaton" (four letters in Greek). The practice of substituting the Tetragrammaton for the name of Yahweh continued to be used for centuries until very recent history.

The house  in Cooks Hill, Newcastle where I first lived  with Montana's father was completely green on the inside, the walls were green, the floor was another green and the roof also and then there were the sills.. all different shades of green! I suppose it was hideous however the paint was free and so green it was.

Gimmel - The letter "C" in the Phoenician alphabet and is also corresponding to the numeral 3.

THE GREEN PARTY - Beth

Green is considered the traditional color of Islam.

PSYCHICS who claim to be able to observe the with their  report that someone with a green aura is typically someone who is in an occupation related to health, such as a physician or nurse, as well as people who are lovers of nature and the outdoors.



Green is the color of her kind, quickness of the eye deceives the mind, envy is the bond between the hopeful and the damned.   
PINK FLOYD   - "Green is the Color" 

"O lion, endure the unendurable with enduring heart; No man does wrong and shall not pay the penalty."  Hipparchus's dream and then the next day he was killed by the phoenician's!

I  have been told that I too have a green aura.   I am good with medicine and with herbs, I studied Naturopathy in 1982 and I am in love with nature and the outdoors. 

Phoenician script was the original one used for transliterating Holy Bible. 
Fifteen volumes long, Against the Christians was written by the Phoenician  Roman pagan Porphyry from Tyre circa 280 and was an educated man's studied attack on Christian theology.

THE GREEN PARTY - aleph

He had that curious love of green, which in individuals is always the sign of a subtle artistic temperament, and in nations is said to denote a laxity, if not a decadence of morals . 
Oscar Wilde



Green is a color, the perception of which is evoked by light having a spectrum dominated by energy with a wavelength of roughly 520-570 nanometers. In the subtractive color system. it is not a Primary color but is created out of a mixture of yellow and blue, or yellow and cyan; it is considered one of the additive primary colors 




Also, Al-Khidr, " The Green One". is a Qur'anic figure who met and travelled 
with Moses.

The Green Party is also a political party in Australian politics.
Aleph is the first letter of the Phoenician alphabet of ancient times. Phoenician is said to be the mother of all writing systems and we are often told that the
Phoenicians invented the alphabet....
Some debate this. The Phoenician contribution was none-the-less major and critical.
