De Ingantaib Érenn speaks of the werewolves as living in Ossory, but this detail is omitted in the 13th century Norse work Konungs Skuggsjá (King's Mirror). It describes the werewolves as being humans who were cursed as a divine punishment for wickedness. According to the account, it is told that when the holy Patricius (St Patrick) preached Christianity in that country, there was one clan which opposed him more stubbornly than any other people in the land; and these people strove to do insult in many ways both to God and to the holy man. And when he was preaching the faith to them as to others and came to confer with them where they held their assemblies, they adopted the plan of howling at him like wolves.
St Patrick responded by praying for God to punish the clan, resulting in them suffering "a fitting and severe though very marvelous punishment, for it is told that all the members of that clan are changed into wolves for a period and roam through the woods feeding upon the same food as wolves; but they are worse than wolves, for in all their wiles they have the wit of men, though they are as eager to devour men as to destroy other creatures." The werewolves were not permanently transformed, as they either took the form of a wolf every seventh winter or were transformed into a wolf for a seven-year period, following which they never transformed again.

7 Herbs of Summer Solstice:
Malva, Hypericum, Elderberry, Rosehip, Thyme, Pennyroyal, Rue
Leonese and Galician tradition
Formerly every year, when the night of summer solstice approaches (now known as Night of San Xuan), it was customary to go out for the herbs at sunset and then leave them in water under the healing dew of the night.
Tradition advises using at least seven herbs with medicinal and aromatic properties, and water from seven different sources. The idea is to collect the plants at sunset on the summer solstice or on Midsummer's Eve. These herbs would also be dried on doorsteps and three days later they were kept in sealed jars to be used during the rest of the year in infusions and herbal teas.

Europeans love our animals. The countries with the best care and animal rights are European nations (of course). The beautiful Germans 🇩🇪 (aka Adolf Hitler and the NS party created these laws) were the first in the world to create laws of protection and protect and preserve their wild life. Countries such as the UK and Northern European countries followed Germany with these laws. #PreserveAndProtect #Beautiful #Kindness #EuropeanAnimals #Civilisation #Europe

Laying hens enjoying their food plot. I'd say duel purpose chickens should be the first animal on a farmstead!🐣

Greenhouse and garden is between my home and the chicken area. This set up is great because I can give produce to the hens and also when I clean the hen house what comes out can go straight into the compost bin easily.

Goats are another animal to add to your farmstead. Before doing so, read and learn all you can about caring for them. They can be complicated and don't just eat anything-(tin cans). We raise meat goats. Boer goats for size and Kiko for hardiness and meat/ milk.
