'''English:''' Upon a cross potent and a saltire potent all Or, An escutcheon Gules.
'''Sybolism:''' The '''escutcheon Gules''' references the arms of Douai (Nord,France) from which the patrilineal line of the ariger's originates; it's also a blood-stained shield symbolising the sacrifices to be made in order to achieve one's ambition and ideal. The '''cross potent''' is a reference to Jerusalem and Godfried van Bouillon. As one of the Nine Worthies, Godfried represents a certain ideal of chivalry, he is also a symbol of the might of the house of Vlaanderen. Jerusalem being the holy city, it's a reminder of the Armiger's faith. together with '''the saltire potent, the cross potent''' becomes a wheel to rebuild the Holy Temple but also the wheel worn

'''Blazon:''' <br>
'''Nederlands:''' Een kokarde van groen en van zwart.
'''English''' A cocarde green and black.
'''Sybolism:''' '''Sable and Vert''' Are the lively colour of Flanders. The '''Cocarde''' is a traditional device to represent political allegiance that fits the theme of the armiger coat of arms that features a Phrygian cap. The '''green''' stands for the countryside as a symbol for the armiger's ideal of a decentralised government, it also alludes to the many canal that run across the Westhoek. The '''Black''' is a traditional mourning colour, it represents the lost territories of Flanders that are French and Dutch Flanders as well as well as the apparent failure of the political class, incapable of adressing modern issues in a satisfactory way. Black is also the symbol of activism, showing that the only way out is by the mean of the people.
