On the eve of the birthday of Sol Invictus,Tammuz, Dionysius, Horus, Apollo, Apollonius of Tyre and Mithras (if I've left anyone out, I apologise profoundly)let us remember the principle that made all these dying saviour gods possible - their Mother.
Known as Diana,Isis
Semiramis
and by many other names
I wish you all a very blessed Mother Night.

Blessings to you, my Sister! Full moon! G/Son's sweater almost done! Miss Thing curled up on my lap. Life is good. Enjoy the downswing!
ReplyDeleteMost of that was over my head hon. To be pagan is to keep looking forward because there isn't anything but a bunch of monkey crap behind us.
ReplyDeleteSo why keep looking into all that old stuff? It's as confusing as that Christian, Muslim and Jewish crap.
The future is ahead, keep looking forward. Oh, and screw Christmas.
But my post in the morning may seem to contradict that statement. Not in my mind, but maybe in your's.
Have a peaceful day.
Hmmm.
ReplyDeleteSeparating the strands of wisdom and truth from all the memories and historical records is a daunting task, but in looking at them sometimes you will see recurring themes....I kind of like that idea, it helps make sense of this world. No matter how irrelivant they seem, they teach us about ourselves, our origins, our emotions. And one of the most enduring themes in my mind is that of "the mother"...everything else is inextricably connected to that.

Yes 'Shell- prcisely.
ReplyDeleteThe most powerful archetype on the planet is that of Mother - everyone has that link.
Whatever we've done to try to replace Her with "Father" God, She keeps popping back up.
Love,

ReplyDeleteI wish I were going to the beach, Anne.
ReplyDeleteI'm about 600 km away from the nearest sea, alas.
Love,
