Who is King James I?
Author of a book titled, 'Demonology"
Knowledge is Stronger than Belief
The first text presented here, written by King James I of England, is a wide-ranging discussion of witchcraft, necromancy, possession, demons, werewolves, fairies, and ghosts, in a Socratic dialogue. This book talks about how women were demons and witches, killing thousands, including his Mother. The second text is a sensational historical account of Scottish witch persecution and is one of the sources cited by Margaret Murray. Precious care was taken to transcribe these historical documents letter for letter, without any attempt at correcting or modernizing spelling. These documents exemplify the convoluted intellectual rationalizations used to justify the brutal witch hunts. Third, he was a slave trader, was bi-sexual, and had lots of lovers.
Witchcraft is the practice of magic, especially for evil purposes; the use of spells. Witchcraft, as most commonly understood in both historical and present-day communities, is the use of alleged supernatural powers of magic. A witch is a practitioner of witchcraft.
Necromancy is the practice of magic involving communication with the dead by summoning their spirits as apparitions or visions for divination; imparting the means to foretell future events and discover hidden knowledge.
Possession is the state of having, owning, or controlling something or someone.
A demon is a malevolent supernatural entity. Historically, belief in demons, or stories about demons, occurs in folklore, mythology, religion, and literature; these beliefs are reflected in media including comics, fiction, film, television, and video games.
Socratic dialogue is a form of dialogue, which encourages a group to question and reach a consensus in answering a universal question.
A fairy is a mythical, magical creature. Most fairies in stories are described as looking like tiny humans with wings. Fairies show up in fables, myths, and fairy tales, usually as kind and lovely creatures with magical powers, although sometimes fairies are mischievous or even spiteful.
A ghost is a disembodied soul. especially: the soul of a dead person believed to be an inhabitant of the unseen world or to appear to the living in bodily likeness: spirit, demon.
Margaret Murray is probably best known today not for her lifelong Egyptology but for her work on the ‘witch cult’.
Just a little rundown of the person or persons responsible for writing our most beloved and trusted source of life.
After writing that book, he translated The Geneva Bible to his version, publishing it in 1611, which is also a wide-ranging discussion of witchcraft, necromancy, possession, demons, werewolves, fairies, and ghosts, in the form of a Socratic dialogue. Anybody caught with the Geneva Bible, which was published in 1560, faced serious consequences. Only the Popes were allowed to have it.
I was taught that the Bible is the word of God, written by inspired men.
Not only did he rewrite the Geneva Bible, but he removed the Apocrypha, the book of Enoch, and many others. He also changed the names and the colors of the original characters who were from Jerusalem, to fit an English narrative representing whiteness as royalty. He made it to where his version of the Bible supported slavery, with verses like;
Ephesians 5, Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart, just as you would obey Christ. 6. Obey them not only to win their favor when their eye is on you but also as slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from your heart. 7. Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not people.
Colossians 3:22 Slaves, obey your earthly masters in everything; and do it, not only when their eye is on you and to curry their favor, but with sincerity of heart and reverence for the Lord.
1 Peter 2:18 Slaves, in reverent fear of God, submit yourselves to your masters, not only to those who are good and considerate but also to those who are harsh. 19. For it is commendable someone bears up under the pain of unjust suffering because they are conscious of God.
Apocrypha are biblical or related writings not forming part of the accepted canon of scripture. While some might be of doubtful authorship or authenticity, in Christianity, the word apocryphal was first applied to writings that were to be read privately rather than in the public context of church services.
The Book of Enoch is composed of various monumental works. The Book of the Watcher, tells the story of fallen angels from Gen 6:1–4 that took wives, created the Nephilim, and taught advanced technology to mankind, ultimately leading to the great flood and their destruction.
The King James version of the Bible was the first book Blacks in America were allowed to read. Now why would the oppressors give us a book with instructions on how to escape the oppression? This whitewashed book was rewritten just in time for slavery, around 400 years ago. The Baptist religion was started in 1608 by John Smyth, a white man. Religion is organized crime started by rich white men.
Please don’t take my word for it. Do your research. Only the truth will set you free and us free as a nation. Try spirituality.
Spirituality involves the recognition of a feeling or sense or belief that there is something greater than myself, something more to being human than sensory experience, and that the greater whole of which we are part is cosmic or divine. Spirituality is the study of oneself with nature.
Despite the 400 years of brutal massacres that continue today, including the known systemic traps, Black people are the most praised people on the planet, forever thanking God and bragging about how blessed we are. News flash: We have no friends. It is Black Americans that other countries come here to take advantage of. Many systems exist to ensure we remain at the bottom, with religion and politics working in tandem to enact this agenda. We claim to know that we will perish for the lack of knowledge. And in the same breath, shut down anyone speaking the truth that will set us free. We can’t have it both ways people.
Ultimately, my purpose in this life is to end single parenting, especially single mothers, and we start with men. God created man in his image. Ending single parenting will change the entire world for the betterment of humanity. We cannot change the system, but we can change our understanding of it and how it works against us.

William Shakespeare
William Shakespeare is widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and one of the most influential figures in world literature. His plays and poems have crossed centuries, cultures, and languages, shaping storytelling, drama, and even everyday speech. Yet, despite his immense fame, much of Shakespeare’s personal life remains a mystery. What we do know paints the picture of a remarkable man who rose from a small market town to become the most celebrated playwright of his age. William Shakespeare was born in April 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon, a small town in Warwickshire, England. The exact date of his birth is unknown, but church records show that he was baptized on April 26, 1564, and it is traditionally believed that he was born on April 23. His father, John Shakespeare, was a glove maker and a local businessman who also held public offices, including that of alderman and bailiff (similar to a mayor). His mother, Mary Arden, came from a respected and relatively wealthy farming family. This background gave young William a stable upbringing and access to education. Shakespeare likely attended the local grammar school in Stratford, where boys were taught reading, writing, Latin grammar, and classical literature. At school, he would have studied works by Roman writers such as Ovid, Virgil, and Seneca—authors who later influenced his plays and poetry. Although there is no record of Shakespeare attending university, his deep knowledge of history, law, politics, and human nature suggests a strong education and an inquisitive mind. At the age of eighteen, Shakespeare married Anne Hathaway in 1582. Anne was eight years older than him, which was unusual for the time. The couple had three children: Susanna, born in 1583, and twins Hamnet and Judith, born in 1585. Tragically, Hamnet died at the age of eleven, a loss that many scholars believe deeply affected Shakespeare and may have influenced the themes of grief and loss in his later works. After the birth of his twins, Shakespeare’s life enters a period often referred to as the “lost years.” From around 1585 to 1592, there are no clear records of his activities. Many theories exist: some believe he worked as a schoolteacher, others think he traveled with acting companies, and some suggest he may have worked in London in various jobs related to the theater. Whatever he did during these years, by the early 1590s Shakespeare had clearly found his calling. By 1592, Shakespeare was established in London as an actor and playwright. London at the time was a bustling city, full of opportunity but also danger, with frequent outbreaks of plague and political tension. The theater was a popular form of entertainment, attracting people from all levels of society—from nobles to common laborers. Shakespeare became associated with a leading acting company known as the Lord Chamberlain’s Men, which later became the King’s Men under King James I. This royal patronage gave the company prestige and financial stability. Shakespeare wrote plays at an astonishing pace. His early works included comedies such as The Comedy of Errors and A Midsummer Night’s Dream, as well as historical plays like Henry VI and Richard III. These plays established his reputation for rich language, memorable characters, and engaging plots. As his career progressed, his writing grew more complex and mature. In the late 1590s and early 1600s, Shakespeare produced many of his greatest tragedies, including Hamlet, Othello, King Lear, and Macbeth. These plays explore deep themes such as ambition, power, jealousy, love, betrayal, and the nature of humanity itself. Shakespeare’s characters are not simple heroes or villains; they are deeply human, full of contradictions and inner struggles. This psychological depth is one of the reasons his works remain relevant today. Shakespeare was not only a playwright but also a poet. In 1609, his collection of 154 sonnets was published. These poems deal with themes of love, beauty, time, mortality, and art. Written in a strict poetic form, the sonnets demonstrate Shakespeare’s mastery of language and emotion. Many of them are still studied and memorized by students around the world. Financially, Shakespeare was very successful. He invested wisely, purchasing property in Stratford-upon-Avon, including a large house known as New Place. Despite his success in London, he maintained strong ties to his hometown. By around 1613, Shakespeare began to retire from active writing and returned to Stratford, where he lived as a respected and wealthy gentleman. William Shakespeare died on April 23, 1616, at the age of 52. The cause of his death is unknown. He was buried in the Holy Trinity Church in Stratford-upon-Avon. His grave bears a famous epitaph warning against moving his bones, a request that has been honored to this day. Seven years after his death, in 1623, Shakespeare’s friends and fellow actors published the First Folio, a collection of 36 of his plays. Without this effort, many of his works might have been lost forever. The First Folio secured Shakespeare’s place in literary history and allowed future generations to discover and study his genius. William Shakespeare’s legacy is immense. He contributed hundreds of words and phrases to the English language, many of which are still in use today. His plays are performed more often than those of any other playwright, and his influence can be seen in literature, film, theater, and popular culture worldwide. More than four hundred years after his death, Shakespeare continues to speak to the human experience, proving that great storytelling truly has no boundaries of time or place. In the end, Shakespeare’s life is a powerful story of talent, determination, and imagination. From a small-town boy in Stratford to the world’s most celebrated writer, his journey reminds us of the enduring power of words and the timeless nature of human emotion.

Affection and Healing for Yourself
During the night of the last quarter moon, I gathered my ritual supplies. I carefully handled the chunk of black tourmaline that would protect me from your overall negative and narcissistic energy. I carefully walked the house with my stick of selenite in hand, asking the universe to cleanse our working space.
