Spring - Bring on the Easter zombie chocolate rabbit. Mythical nonsense. #SpringEquinox #Easter

So here we are again. Moon-Day 20th March 2023. The Spring Equinox.

It'll soon be that time of year, "Easter". AKA the Spring Equinox. A bastardisation of a yearly solar event that has importance for all our lives. A moment of solar transition from one season to another. Yet another public holiday based on a religious myth that has nothing to do with it's actual origins.

 'Easter' is a laughably movable celebration within the Christian church that is held between 20 March and 25 April. It falls on the first Sunday following the first full moon after the northern hemisphere spring equinox - how amazingly pagan that all seems to be. Just think about it. Spring equinox, a new growing season, rebirth and the return of the sun (light) to the northern hemisphere, rabbits for reproduction, eggs for fertility, and lots of chocolate because it is tasty and encourages spending - it is all just 'symbollocks'. Even the name 'Easter' is taken from a Germanic Pagan goddess and is related to the fact that sunlight returns ( the dawn ). As humans, we are

Winter Solstice. The real reason for the season. Woden's Day 21st December '2022' #WinterSolstice #WinterSolstice2022

The #WinterSolstice '2022'. We have arrived. The depths of winter. 2147hrs on Wednesday 21st December.

'Woden's Day' December 21st . For those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, it is Winter Solstice. The time of year when daylight is at its shortest. From this point on, the days will start to become longer, a consequence of the sun appearing higher overhead in the sky. It is literally 'the coming of the light'. This is why our ancestors held this time of year as an important marker in their calendar. They had made it to the darkest point in the season and could look forward to increased daylight from now on. It would have meant a new start, a new growing season and the prospect of new food. Celebrated by fire, lights, decorated trees, the giving of offerings/gifts and feasting on livestock.

This has been hijacked, bastardised and used by politically religious power-mongers to spread their

American Thanksgiving. Thu 24th Nov 2022. Celebrating Nature & our place in the Solar System. #Thanksgiving2022 #Thanksgiving.

The fourth Thursday of November in the USA is 'Thanksgiving', their fixed celebration of seasons, harvest and plenty. Based on ancient, pagan, seasonal celebrations. Now, high-jacked for religious / political gains, it wasn't always a fixed date. For millennia, early peoples would have been aware that the summer growing season was over and their journey into winter was beginning, and food stores would have to last them through the colder period. The global and solar reality of the Winter Solstice and the Northern Hemisphere return to Spring. This happens worldwide through history.

Early settlers from other lands brought with them the harvest rituals that they observed. In these new lands, the end of the growing season would vary in time and severity depending on location, the more northerly 'states' having an earlier and harsher onset of winter. Canadian Thanksgiving harvest rituals are much earlier. This movable feast, however, didn't foster the 'United' feeling that the 'States' were looking for. Abraham Lincoln fixed the date on which all the states would celebrate in order to a give the people a sense of unity (1863). Various tales and unsubstantiated myths

surround the modern version and its origins including the 1621 Pilgrims giving thanks for a good harvest but, in reality, it is another ancient celebration of human existence and seasonal change. Observing our place in the solar system through festivals and feasts .( For e.g ) Versions of a harvest festival came to the land, brought by travellers from Europe, Mexico, the north of the continent and further. These added to the rituals no doubt observed by the indigenous people. Thanks to be nature. 

Pancake Day. Leftover. Nature. Celebrated. #PancakeDay #ShroveTuesday

  Pancake Day Some people call it #ShroveTuesday. Another hijacked, residual 'celebration'. Originally a pagan activity, it became part of the Christian spring celebration before loosing all religious meaning to become the bland, over-commercialised, greedy, modern leftover that we have today.

The word SHROVE comes from the old, English word 'shrive', which means to obtain absolution for "sins" by confessing. Thereby being "shriven" before the start of 'Lent'. Pancakes were 'traditionally' eaten on this day to use up perishable goods like eggs and milk before the 40-day fasting of 'Lent'. 'Lent' being invented to give religious control over the uneducated masses. Even the word 'Lent' comes from the Old English word 'lencten' which meant 'Spring Season'.

Before this Christian 'tradition' was invented and tacked on to their 'Oestre/ Easter' hijacking, it is thought that the event might have originated from a pagan observation, when eating warm, round, flour & water flatbreads - symbolising the sun - was a way of celebrating the arrival of spring and the new growing season. Full moon, Spring Equinox - same as Easter. The 1st SUNday after the 1st FULL MOON after the SPRING EQUINOX. How delightfully pagan. Things happen, change & evolve over time and we have many residual celebrations in modern calendars. #Human #Humanism

Happy 'New Year' to you all.

So, here we are again. Another solar year is done.

Why is it that this coming solar year is called '2021'? The answer is that it is an arbitrary number, it actually has very little meaning. The very idea of '2021' is a human, religious creation, forced on us by power struggles, religious bigots, greed and wars. It is merely an expression

George? Who? #StGeorgesDay #Myths #Spring

St George's Day. Who the what the hell now? Let's face it, the day is meaningless.. A celebration of Spring that has become a sorry excuse for a national celebration. It usually passes with a quiet whimper and a bit of flag waving, failing to be embraced by the vast majority of the English nation. Here is why.

We have a poorly educated, Roman soldier, allegedly born in what would be modern Turkey, who was possibly persecuted and executed for his religious beliefs in a made-up emerging cult nearly 1800 years ago. He also slayed a dragon that didn't exist ( most likely a graphical representation of victory in battle ) and then magically re-appeared to lead troops in to battle, approximately 1000 years after his supposed death. Mumbo-Jumbo. Nonsense. Myth. An over-hyped, result of a religious game of 'Chinese Whispers'

This military, religious icon was thrust upon us through religion, religious war, nationalistic flag waving and tyranny. His myth is celebrated throughout many countries including Egypt, Ethiopia, Russia, Syria and Romania. As a figurehead of 'Englishness' he has very little going for him. He never even set foot in the  green and pleasant land.

A small group of people 'celebrate' his fictional, holy-englishness by draping themselves in red and white flags, drinking ales and singing religious/football songs in pubs before vomiting in a bin and being thrown out for fighting. It is lame

'Spring Equinox' Tonight. The reason for the Season. Spring or 'easter/ishtar'. #Spring

So here we are again. It is that time of year, "Easter". AKA the Spring Equinox. On Wednesday 20th March 2019, just before 10pm, there will be this year's equinox and a Full Moon. That means there must be a religious ceremony tacked on to this reality. You could say 'Ishtar' or 'Eostre' or 'Ostara' if you prefer. It's all the same. A bastardisation of a solar event that has importance for all our lives. A moment of solar transition from one season to another. Yet another public holiday based on a religious myth that has nothing to do with it's actual origins.
