BOAB TREE

Celtic Fire featured in the last post brings forth the BOAB TREE. The Boab Tree is the ICON of Kimberley, Australia and we have featured Kimberley on our other blog.


"Every boab tree is unique. They have character and personality as you would expect of such an ancient creature. Some individual boab trees are 1500 years old and older, which makes them the oldest living beings in Australia, and puts them amongst the oldest in the world."



"The Australian boab tree (Adansonia gregorii) is related to the Madagascan and African Adansonia species known as baobabs. Like its relatives it is sometimes called a "bottle tree", but we locals refer to the trees as just boabs.


There are two theories about how boab trees arrived in Australia. One says the seeds have floated here from Africa and spread from the coast. The other theory suggests boabs might have survived from the time when Africa and Australia were both still part of one continent, the ancient Gondwana, 65 million years ago.


A mature boab tree is a sight to behold. Though not exceptionally high, up to 15 metres, they appear huge. The name bottle tree relates to the swollen trunk that can reach a massive girth of up to 20 metres."


Boab Tree was also used for food due to their high content of Vitamin C. [1] It is an edible and medicinal tree that can also store water. 

Australia as a lot of water in land where people live, and Australians must move away from the water to be safe. We were telling this to the people there in 1998/1999. 



BOAB from a Christian perspective. 


THE LORD MAKE THE WOMAN LIKE RACHEL AND LEAH. 

"Rachel and Leah were used in the elders blessing on Boab's life because they built their houses and their husbands were blessed with an established house because Rachel and Leah maintained their love and obedience towards God and their husbands. They were not foolish, nor selfish, nor rebellious - they were not contentious, and the proof of this is that the Lord built the ENTIRE house of Israel from them. How beautiful is that?! Now, see what the Lord blesses us with when we live our lives according to His ways." [3]



A different Christian perspective speaks of the BOAB Tree only growing on the flood plains and the Christian Church is symbolic of the BOAB Tree because Christians do 
not drink from the living waters. [4] This man is correct because as Christ said 


'Christianity was never born, it is still in the womb'. 


Of course the living waters are the streams of consciousness and the biblical prophecies predicted 
that when I came it would be like a pent up flood. 


However, this pinged out of me from Prophet Jeremiah. 








"It shall not fear when heat comes, and its leaves shall stay green; in the year of drought it is not anxious, and it does not cease to bear fruit’.

There we have the leaves again mentioned in the 'ALIYAH USA' post and featured in the 'CELTIC CROP CIRCLE'. 

Water is going to be a serious issue folks when the heat comes. People have to be living in ecological self-sustainable homes that create water from the sun. The celtic crop circle is also a rather nice design for a house with the leaves inside staying green due to the water coming from the sun to water the plants inside the houses. Your very own tree house living amongst the leaves, bearing fruit for healing the nations.
