Celts, Cauldrons and Grail and an old dream

I was watching a Netflix take on the Holy Grail and it's history.  It was made in 1998.  Something it said triggered my memory of this poem I was given in a dream, though the ending is something I've been trying to remember for a while.

Hear me now
First Goddess of the light
Drink for me now
The cup of life.

Here me now
First Goddess of the night
Drink for me now
The cup of

I know it's a duality thing.  One is light and life, and the other is darkness and death.  Turns out the Celtic Cauldrons were double edged.  They gave life but also death.  They were symbols of rebirth and death.

Something else makes sense now.  Whenever I give food to the Goddesses(Morrigan and the  unknown one) they want me to take a bite, before I give it to them.  The Celts Priestess would slit the throat of prisoners of war and fill the cauldron with their blood.  The Celts would then make a stew, to feed the Gods and themselves.

I'll edit in links, when I find some credible ones.

MEAD



Not the finished product but the product that will be sitting for a few months.  MEAD.


The start of putting the honey in.


Pretty amber bottle.



Another artwork I did a few months back


I was thinking about Sigyn when I did this.  I was thinking about perserverance.  NOt sure what the water creek is about.  The darkness is inside a cave.  The green is the dripping of poison.

Memory of the trees

This is apparently the world tree, with my attempt of the golden eagle at top, and the snake at the bottom with the well of wyrd as well.  My daugther does a better snake.




This is a very imp piece, that I'm still processing.  My next thing is going to be about water, or a well or something watery and blue.

Garden of my hope.






Arting on some inner work and healing.

Things to ponder upon

We get many types in the Pagan umbrella tent.  We have many Liberals, Conservatives, Libertarians, Free thinkers, Pragmatists, Artists etc.  We try not to judge, or at least that is preached in non Recon circles.

However I think we need to ponder on those who try to decieve the gullible for their own attention or well being. We have many Con artists as well.  It is not a bad thing to trust but verify.

There are lessons I have learned.  I learned it when one of my classmates, who claimed he was working for our government, while still in highschool, in maine.  Every story got more and more strange.

We have those who claim many things.  So before believing research.  Look up what it takes to become an Ambassodor.  Look up whether or not we have diplomacies with various countries, especially before believing the political rhethoric of those who claim to have that knowledge.  Ask for to see college diplomas.

IT's not just the Fluffy Bunny new agey Wiccans, it's also the recon minded devotional Polytheists.

Season

I think that my winter season has passed.
Spring may have sprung
My buds may be ready to be pollinated.

Let it be true
Let the green grass of my soul come up
Let my flowers bloom!

Faith

I know at some point I will need to write what i"m going through.  So that someone may read it and it may help them, but I'm not strong enough yet.  I don't understand the lesson.  I'm hanging on by a faint thread of hope that his pain will be worth it later on, that something better.

There are times I don't believe that...
