In 356 BCE, Herostratus set fire to the Temple of Artemis in Ephesus. Herostratus was an Ancient Greek arsonist who destroyed the Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World in an attempt to immortalise his name. His name has become a metonym for someone who commits a criminal act in order to become famous. For this outrage, the Ephesians sentenced Herostratus to death and forbade anyone from mentioning his name. @GreekLeague

We have sooooo much lemon balm. I made a tincture and oil and today I will be drying herbs in the oven for tea. If you live in an area with low humidity, you can hang herbs to dry, but if there's a lot of humidity in the air, the herbs can get moldy. This makes oven drying a great alternative!

How to Oven Dry Herbs
1. Let any surface moisture from the herbs to dry (I leave them overnight after harvesting).
2. Take the leaves off their stems and place on a baking sheet (You can line the baking sheet with parchment paper if you want, but this is not necessary). Make sure they are in a single layer on the sheet.
3. Put your oven on its lowest setting and put the herbs in the oven. Do not close the oven door.
4. I like to check the herbs every 15 minutes or so, and I will also rotate the baking sheets.
5. When the herbs are crunchy and crumbly they are done. Do not be alarmed if they take on a brownish hue or the green color fades - this is normal and happens with any drying process.

Ogma, Celtic god of poets and bards, speech and language who gave the gift of the Ogham, the literary system of the Celts.
He is described as “the fairest of the sons of Danu.”
It is said that rays of sun
would beam from his hair,
and he was called “Ogma grian-aineacg, of the Sunny Countenance.”
The subneolithicum is the era that bridges the mesolithicum and the neolithicum. The Swifterbantculture (5300-3400 BCE), named after the Dutch village Swifterbant, was a culture from that era. In 1997 a skeleton belonging to the Swifterbandculture was found near Hardinxveld-Giessendam (province South-Holland). It was a woman aged around 50 years old and 1.58 metre tall/short. She was a mother and in good health. She was named Trijntje by the archelogists. Trijntje is a beautiful old Dutch name. Why this name? Because there was a railway near the excavationsite and the Dutch word for train is 'trein'. Trijntje-Treintje....same pronounciation😄. Transportcompany Arriva even named a train after her😎. (Picture: own work: Arch).
This is all true, but it’s not anything new. I personally believe, based on my own years of looking at this stuff, that what is happening today is part of a centuries old agenda. It’s all part of something old, an agenda that began with the spread of Abrahamisim (a tool of globalists.) The gradual spread of Abrahamism around the world wasn’t happening independently in different locations on earth. It was all part of the same agenda, and it was Paradigm shifting. The high priests of Abrahamism didn’t just change the faith of the people as they moved from one tribe to another, from kingdom to kingdom, they’ve changed everything! They’ve changed the entire social structure, laws, the hierarchy, and way of life. They have exterminated the Native righteous ruling dynasties, and replaced them with their own agents, either this, or, they have brainwashed, or forced the native ruler to marry one of their agents, and in this they were able to place themselves into the position of power and rulership. They reformed everything in the land destroying evidence of the past, and rewriting history. It was a global event of a takedown of the old pagan world order, replacing it with their New World order, the process of which is still unfolding today. I believe we are watching it come to an end now. We think that secret societies exist to preserve ancient wisdom, but I suspect that secret societies possibly exist due to this centuries-old agenda of world domination, and the fact that it lasted for many generations. Maybe secret societies exist because the ruling elite don’t live forever, but their agenda was meant to last for many generations, and they needed a way for the old elite that will die soon to pass the agenda to the younger elites, pass the instructions on what to do next with humanity from generation to generation. Maybe they deliberately made these secret societies seem very mysterious and full of ancient secrets in order to collect money from gullible members, and use it as a cover. Maybe in reality none of those secret society members actually get any real secrets, and all of the real ancient secrets are preserved specifically for certain elite family members.

Sacred Symbol: History of the Swastika.

This book can rightfully be called an encyclopedia of the swastika, as the material collected in it (more than 3400 illustrations) can amaze any reader with its volume.

(Unfortunately only available in Russian, but the images still make it worth viewing)

Colorized snowball fight from 124 years ago, Lyon, France. Watch the guy in the bike

Notice how the guy on the bike forgot his hat, the guy was fighting for his life 😂.

I had uploaded this reel before but at the time 15 seconds was the maximum time for a reel so now you can see a bit more of the video.
