A while ago Dirkje spoke under an old oak about the Witte Wieven to a heathen audience. Witte Wieven translates as White Women or Wise Women. The Witte Wieven are typical Saxon folklore and can be found in the west of Germany and the east of the Netherlands. Now Dirkje wrote a really good article on the Dutch website of the Tribe of the Fox. You don't speak Dutch? No problem...i have a gutfeeling that she is going to make a video about the Witte Wieven in English🙂. https://stamvandevos.nl/witte-wieven-spoken-of-wetende-vrouwen/

Greco-Egyptian Goddess Isis-Sothis-Demeter, 131-138 BC.
Wearing a Phrygian cap, the Amazon Penthesilea (a warrior queen in Greek Mythology) is about to send an arrow in a hunting scene with several animals and Amazons.The 5-6 th century floor mosaic can be found in the “Villa of the Amazons”, a palatial house, that probably belonged to an important administrator of the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire, who lived in Edessa (nowadays called Urfa).

HECATE (Hekate) is a goddess of Greek mythology capable of both good and evil.

She was associated with witchcraft, magic, the Moon, doorways, and creatures of the night like hell-hounds and ghosts. Often depicted carrying a torch to remind of her connection with the night, in sculpture she has three faces for her role as the goddess of boundaries and the guardian of crossroads.

According to Hesiod in his Theogony, Hecate is the daughter of Perses and Asteria, making her the granddaughter of the Titans Phoebe and Coeus. Euripides, on the other hand, mentions her mother is Leto. Other writers claim her as the daughter of Zeus and Demeter, Aristaion or Night.

The goddess was frequently associated with Demeter and even assimilated to her in some cults.
On Nonnus of Panopolis

Nonnus was a Greek poet, who lived in Ptolemaic Egypt around the 5th century AD.

He became known as the composer of the Dionysaica, an epic tale which describes the life of Dionysus, his expedition to India, and his triumphant return to the west.

But what is more important to us: he referred to the Arabic Sun as 'Kronos', the Greek name for the planet Saturn, which accidentaly is also a doppelganger of Dionysos.

Does this not indicate that the Graeco-Egyptian who had it recorded that Ra stood for Kronos/Saturn was echoing the popular belief of the time?

Important video from Dr Anne Mckluskey, a GP in Northern Ireland.

She discusses the disastrous results and consequences of the vaccine, specifically in young people. Further, she talks about how it is extremely difficult for doctors to actually report on vaccine side effects, so statistics we have on the number of reactions are probably extremely underestimated.

Please share.
I know I post this song periodically, but I can’t help it, Loreena McKennitt”s voice is magical, and this is my favorite song by her.
