Just passing on a titbit of information which might interest Russell.... came across a piece several months ago that suggested that the Blue Apples refer to the Pleiedes... Know anything about that? Can't remember where I got the info from now... www.crystalinks.com/rennes.htmlMaat

Blue apples of couse is from the translation of a text supposedly found in Rennes le Chateau:
"SHEPHERDESS, NO TEMPTATION. THAT POUSSIN, TENIERS, HOLD THE KEY; PEACE 681. BY THE CROSS AND THIS HORSE OF GOD, I COMPLETE or DESTROY THIS DAEMON OF THE GUARDIAN AT NOON. BLUE APPLES."
But there has been little attempt to interpret "blue apples" other than the proposition that it is local slang for grapes
For myself I think it may be a compound word play based on:
- an alternate interpretation of the Genesis account of the garden of eden and the gaining of knowledge of good and evil from the "apple" - grapes (vines) as a veil for a blood line carried by the Magdalene - experience of blueness of the Great Mother (veiled by the Pleiades)
Thus the female parfaits dressed in the blue of the Great Mother were both the carriers of the blood line and the carriers of the wisdom from the garden of eden
Thus the female parfaits were blue apples
Cheers
Russell

Bro. RussellAfter advancing a speculative proposition I would hesitate to build further such propositions upon it with such a definite term as ‘thus.’ ‘If so’ would be preferable—proceeding from speculative premises without such reservations is akin to a sleight of hand. Blue apples being grapes is consistent with female parfaits dressed in blue being carriers of a blood line, as the grapevine can be analogous to such a heritage (were they dressed in blue?—Albigensian Parfaits, both male and female, typically dressed in dark colours, not necessarily blue). In the context of the whole text, ‘blue apples’ may also, or instead, refer to oxymoron type attributes? One does not expect there to be blue apples any more than Europeans expected there to be black swans or, more appropriately, devout Catholics at the time would have expected there to holy 'heretics'.
