The next full moon will occur on September 14th, 2019 at 12:33 AM ET and will be a Full Harvest Moon.
The Harvest Moon is the only full moon that takes place nearest the autumnal equinox, and reflects a distinctive event for this time of year, as the interval between one moonrise to the next becomes shorter.

HÄXAN : Witchcraft Through The Ages (1922) [HD]
Dague Jaune
Director : Benjamin Christensen
Cast : Maren Pedersen, Clara Pontoppidan, Elith Pio, Benjamin Christensen,...
Budget : 2 Million Swedish Crown (SEK)
Release date : 18/09/1922
************
This film was featured on "silent film Sundays" on Turner Classic Movies, and I finally got around to watching the whole film. It was an interesting perspective, especially considering that it's pushing 100 years. It made some very interesting observations about this history in relation to society then (and now). It was not in any way sympathetic to Christrianity nor Paganism, but took what I would call a objective Humanist point of view. Medieval Christians were seen as supersticious whack jobs and Witches were seen as crazy old ladies making love potions out've dried out cat turds. Perhaps more than anything, Benjamin Christensen probably just thought that it would make for an interesting film/documentary. At the end he came up with some interesting parallels to Western society in 1922. The irrational "witch hunt" is still very much alive.

"From the temple we got mathematics, astronomy and chemistry, and music, geography and history. Practically every science we know was originally part of this secret wisdom."
-- Manly P. Hall in a lecture entitled 'Secret Powers and Why We Should Not Use Them'
This quote was in regards to how carefully guarded mystery sciences, for various reasons, came into the possession of questionable or undisciplined men during and after the gradual collapse of classical culture. However, it was in direct reference to how some of those mystery sciences did lead to the roots of mainstream modern science. Although this does not prove point-blank that "science came from religion," modern science has its roots in the same ancient wisdom that Atheists trash on a regular basis.

Interview With a Gothi - Part 1
Hengest Thorsson
An interview with Heimgest, leader of the Odinic Rite.
The Odinic Rite is an organization whose aims are to promote all aspects of the ancestral religion today called Odinism, the organic spiritual beliefs and way of life of the indigenous peoples of Northern Europe. The watch-words of the Odinic Rite are "Faith, Folk, Family" and this summarizes their ideals well.
For more information visit www.odinic-rite.org

I posted this some years ago, and it amazes me that after 13 years it only has 38,166 views! Hengest is the head of the Court of Gothar of the worldwide Asatru/Odinist organization called the Odinic Rite, based in the UK. He is being interviewed somewhere in Alberta, Canada, which is where Daniel Updike is located... although I have no idea if this is connected to that same Odinist group. It deals with the current state of the rise of Odinism, current as of 2006. I have no idea as to why this video doesn't have at least a half million views! Equally as puzzling, parts 2, 3, and 4 only have 8,000, 5,000, and 4,000 views. Maybe it's just me, but this is exciting, this is important, one of the major leaders of the movement, visiting a beautiful far off rural location, tying it all together, it should have more views.

Just in the same manner as a dog can be good security, whether directly or as a warning signal, a cat can be a "spiritual watchdog." Some cats have psychic abilities, and they may be able to protect the home against evil entities or energies. The cat sleeping at the edge of the bed can be the equivalent to the dog sleeping by the doorway, warding off unwanted presences.

"Folk Horror"
'Midsommar'
Midsommar is a 2019 folk horror film written and directed by Ari Aster and starring Florence Pugh, Jack Reynor, William Jackson Harper, Vilhelm Blomgren, and Will Poulter. It follows a group of friends who travel to Sweden for a festival that occurs once every ninety years and find themselves in the clutches of a pagan cult.
A co-production between the United States and Sweden, the film was initially pitched as a straightforward slasher film set amongst Swedish cultists. Aster devised a screenplay using elements of the concept but made a deteriorating relationship the central conflict after he had experienced a difficult breakup. The film was shot on location in Budapest, Hungary in the summer and autumn of 2018.
Midsommar was theatrically released in the United States on July 3, 2019 by A24 and in Sweden on July 10, 2019 by Nordisk Film. The film received positive reviews from critics, with many praising Aster's direction and Pugh's performance.

'Quest for the Grave of Scotia, the Pharaoh’s Daughter Who Founded Scotland and Ireland'
Sarah P. Young - Ancient-Origins.net - March 15, 2019
A short distance from the bustling Irish town of Tralee in County Kerry there is an otherworldly looking glen which is known as Scotia’s Grave. According to Irish folklore, the glen was the location of a battle known as Sliabh Mish which took place between the Celtic Milesians and a supernatural race called the Tuatha Dé Danann (tribe of the gods).
Although it was the Milesians who were victorious in battle it was a triumph at the expense of their queen, Scotia, who is reputed to have been buried in the glen.
Who Was Queen Scotia?
Queen Scotia appears in a chronical called the Book of Leinster , a medieval Irish manuscript which was compiled in around 1160 AD. The book was compiled by an abbot named Áed Ua Crimthainn who deeply respected the traditions and history of Ireland, even when they were at odds with his views as a Christian or his reasonable beliefs as a well-educated man.
She is described as the daughter of an Egyptian Pharaoh, the wife of a Greek king, and a contemporary of the Biblical Moses who allegedly cured her husband after he was bitten by a venomous snake.

Why do people hate leaving a message on a machine or voicemail ?
I can not understand why people will not leave a message. I have a machine at home and voicemail on my cell and they are there for a reason. I always screen my calls at home and will never pick up the phone. I can see who calls on my cell and can decide to answer it, but that is not the point. If im busy or didn't hear the phone ring then i think it might be a good idea to leave a message .
Can someone please share their opinions on this subject.

I leave messages, most of the time, but I sometimes don't. It makes me uncomfortable and don't know what to say. So most of the time, I just figure, "Well, I'll try again later, when they're there."

I think SimonX has the right idea I'm thinking Pit, but as long as it's here, I'll just say that when I call you, it is becase I want to have a two-way conversatoin with you right now. If I can't have it right now, I'll call back at some other time that is convenient for me.

Mangetout
Location: England
Because talking to a person is very different from talking to a non-responsive machine; if you are going to speak a brief monologue, you would normally prepare it in advance, making sure that you cover what you want to say as clearly as possible without repetition, hesitation or omission.
However, in ordinary conversation, you generally just 'wing it' as you go along, because if you miss anything important (like when or where you are going to meet them, or what you want them to do, the other person will ask.
So if you aren't expecting to give a monologue, the usual response is "Hello, err...it's me. Ummm, By 'me' I mean Mangetout, Have you got... Umm.. I mean I was umm... calling about errr... Oh, I'll call back

Nobody apparently has taken the time to put this into literary or documentary film form, but in pre-Roman times there existed a massive trading arrangement between the Greek world and the Celtic world. At the Greek colony of Marseille was a huge trading post where goods and money were exchanged. Goods were brought in from everywhere in ancient western Europe through a pre-Roman road system. This would have included not only Celtic Gaul, but Celtiberian Iberia, Cisalpine Gaul, Etruria, Celtic central and northern Europe, and from the island lands of the Celtic Britons, Caledonians, and Hibernians.
Even in western Ireland there have been found the remains of what had been ancient wooden roads over peat bogs and wetlands, moving the goods and coins over the land, crossing over across the narrowest sea point into Briton, over the land and sea at it's narrowest point into Gaul, and down to Marseille, and back again. This whole operation would have required much cooperation and goodwill between the various tribal groups, far from the idea of "warring Celtic tribes." The Greek vessels were back and forth across the Mediterranean. Although it's not known for certain, there may well have been Teutonic tribes, from north-central Europe and Scandinavia, participating as well. Goods would have included clothing, iron, tin, bronze, artwork, furs, rugs, blankets, pillows, weaponry, wheat, grains, spices, wine, mead, and the whole endeavor must have included food... if even just for the duration which they spent there.

On a recent posting, I wrote about a particular sightly star which I had seen in a photograph on a door frame in Germany. It was distinctly not a Saturnian hexagram aka "Star of David," but in the same basic shape. It's called a "mullet of six points" (see image to the left), however, the one I saw had slightly more slender points. It was beautifully engraved and painted on this door frame.
This distinctly is not a Estoile star, a Moravian star, or a hexagram star, but I think a particularly unique and sightly symbol. There are varied types of this star, with varied lengths of the points and curvature. There is also a similarly sightly "mullet of eight points."
In heraldry, the term star may refer to any star-shaped charge with any number of rays, which may appear straight or wavy, and may or may not be pierced. While there has been much confusion between the two due to their similar shape, a star with straight-sided rays is usually called a mullet while one with wavy rays is usually called an estoile.
While a mullet may have any number of points, it is presumed to have five unless otherwise specified in the blazon, and pierced mullets are common; estoiles, however, are presumed to have six rays and (as of 1909) had not been found pierced. In Scottish heraldry, an estoile is the same as in English heraldry, but it has been said[by whom?] that mullet refers only to a mullet pierced (also called a spur revel), while one that is not pierced is called a star.

LYRICS:
Almost heaven West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains Shenandoah river
Life is old there older than the trees
Younger than the mountains blowin' like a breeze
Country roads take me home
To the place I belove
West Virginia mountain momma
Take me home country roads
All my memories gather round her
Miner's lady stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine teardrops in my eyes
Country roads take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia mountain momma
Take me home country roads
I hear a voice in the morning hour as she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
Drivin' down the road I get a feelin'
That I should have home yesterday yesterday
Country roads take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia mountain momma
Take me home country roads
Country roads take me home
To the place I belove
West Virginia mountain momma
Take me home country roads
West Virginia mountain momma
Take me home country roads
West Virginia mountain momma
Take me home country roads
Take me home country roads
