The flag of the Knights Templar, commonly known as the "Beauseant," holds deep meaning and significant symbolism in the history of the Knights Templar Order. The Knights Templar, also known as the Order of the Temple of Solomon, was one of the most famous Catholic military orders established in the 12th century during the Crusades.
This flag is typically depicted as vertically divided, with one half being white and the other half black. Each colcor on the flag has its own significance:
-
White: The color white is often associated with purity and religious zeal. In the context of the Knights Templar, it represents their righteousness and holy mission, as well as their commitment to the Catholic faith.
-
Black: Black is commonly seen as a symbol of resolve and strength. For the Knights Templar, it could also represent their readiness to face death and their fearlessness in the face of enemies.
Additionally, the flag is thought to symbolize the contrast between good and evil, light and darkness, representing the ongoing struggle between these forces in the world and within the human soul.
The Beauseant was not just a symbol of the military power and strength of the Knights Templar, but also a spiritual emblem, encouraging courage and steadfastness in faith. It was commonly used in battles and rituals of the Order.

I believe the depiction of the flag here on this page is upside down. Recently, a video surfaced of the Templars entering Saint Peter’s Basilica, and they’re flying it white on top.
I’ve been trying to find out more about the flag since.
Seems the white represents the purity of Christ, and the black represents the sins of the earth bound. The red of the Cross bridges the two, because we move from one to the other by the blood of Christ.
Fly the flag of resistance, ignore the butthurt mohammedan
