A Young Daughter of the Picts by Jacques Le Moyne de Morgues, ca. 1585.

This colorful miniature apparently served as the model for an engraving for plate III of the section on Picts and ancient Britons in Theodor de Bry’s publication of Thomas Hariot's “Briefe and True Report of the New Found Land of Virginia”, published in 1590. Originally attributed to the artist John White, whose drawings from the Virginia expedition were also featured in the de Bry volume, “Young Daughter” was not reattributed to Le Moyne until after its acquisition by Paul Mellon in 1967. The Pictish illustrations were intended to remind readers that early natives of the British Isles existed in a savage state similar to natives in the Americas. “Young Daughter” was the second miniature attributed to Le Moyne from his drawings of early indigenous peoples, most of which are now known only through engravings. The first miniature identified as his work, and the only one from Le Moyne's drawings of Timucuan Indians, is “Laudonnière and King Athore”, which was featured in part 2 of de Bry's “America” and is in the James Hazen Hyde collection of the New York Public Library. The drawing is a harmonious embodiment of Le Moyne’s two known subject areas, ethnological drawings and botanicals. The colorfully ornamented body of the young woman, with her high waist, full thighs, and long hair rippling in waves to her hips, evokes his drawings of the Timucuan women, who also tattooed their bodies through a process Le Moyne describes in his Florida observations. Her botanical tattoos, such as the cornflowers on her waist and wrists, and the heartsease on her waist, calves, and hips, also bear comparison with Le Moyne’s existing botanical illustrations. In addition, Le Moyne decorates her with species newly introduced to Western Europe, thus signaling his botanical sensibilities and knowledge, though rendering her slightly anachronistic.

This is the way

Yes, the Sun travels though Ophiuchus, but it's been left out of Western astrology. When we think about it, the reason why is obvious... the rulers fear Ophiuchus.

"Ophiuchus represents true individuality; the realized self; the lover and mother of others. Their enemies are the haters and their minions, who are locked into a sense of false community based on opposing what Ophiuchus/13/women's power represents, and will try to destroy her any chance they get. Maybe it’s just a simple fact of the patriarchy hating the Mother, the maternal leader and sage; the someone in contact with the secret source of a woman's awesome power over life and death, which men cannot control. And they hate women for it.

For eons, women have been helping the others confront the world beyond their understanding. Men call it magic, women call it intuition and transformation. But women are not the only target of violence and ignorance, men with this sign are also liable to be punished or driven underground."

Medusa, New York

The snakes represent inner turmoil, anxieties, and destructive thought patterns that assail the mind. The depiction suggests an ongoing battle for control over one's thoughts and emotions, emphasizing the struggle for mental equilibrium. The myth's narrative, including Medusa's petrifying gaze and her eventual defeat, becomes a metaphor for conquering these inner challenges, thereby achieving psychological transformation and self-awareness. This interpretation highlights the rich symbolic layers inherent in the Medusa motif, connecting it with the complexities of human psychology and the quest for personal growth.

The Compassion of Othin

Othin does not test... He does not judge... He is the God of the Hanged Man. God of the Downtrodden. God of the Disabused. God of the Miserable and of the Invisible.

Who would he be were he to judge or test the worth of a mans heart? No... he reveals. Though he may use lies and misdirections he will expose the truth, he does so to reveal what truly lies within a mans heart.
Claim to be generous he will expose to you your greed, claim to be kind he will show to you your cruelty. This is not to make you a "BETTER" man no no no, he has no interest in such things, he does not care about that. No indeed it is to make you an HONEST man, honest with yourself, honest with the world. All so that you might be the most you, you could possibly be.

"Remember even though all of this is true it is all a lie! A lie to show you, to reveal to you, it is not about you. It is about them..."-Othin, The Beggar King

Nike (Winged Victory) of Samothrace

Standing at the top of a staircase in the Musée du Louvre in Paris, the Nike of Samothrace looks down over her admiring crowds. One of the most revered artworks of Hellenistic Greek art, the Nike has been on display in the Louvre since 1866. The statue was brought to France by Charles Champoiseau, who found it in pieces during excavations on the island of Samothrace in 1863. Champoiseau was serving as vice-consul in the Ottoman city of Adrianople (modern Edirne, in Turkey), and visited Samothrace specifically to look for antiquities.

Middle Earth and The Industrial Age

Stolen History | The Destruction of The Old World

Tolkien wrote down his story rooted in Germanic mythology during the first world war at exactly the time that can be recognized as the destruction of the old magical world.
World War 1 marked the beginning of the decent into soulless modernity.
Perhaps Tolkien had to write down his vision of middle earth because the human psyche cannot survive without a connection to reality, even if this connection is maintained via supposedly fictional stories.
It's interesting to note... that fantasy stories are also an invention of the industrial age.
Could it be that people were not interested in dissociative worlds as long as life itself was full of meaning and conveyed a higher purpose?

𝕬𝖗𝖐𝖍𝖆𝖒 𝕱𝖆𝖗𝖒𝖘

In the old days of Egypt, Wadjet, the Eye of the Goddess, was both the sun and the moon. She took her rightful place, in her fiery solar form, as the right eye of the male sun gods. Together they lived in partnership and balance. However, as time passed the sun god grew more arrogant and powerful. One day the god Atum realized that he had lost his children. He had taken his eye off them, so to speak, and they had wandered into the darkness of the underworld. The Eye Goddess went down to retrieve them, shining her light into the dark abyss, birthing the light of the first dawn.

When she returned, rather than being praised and honored, she was shocked to find that Atum had discarded her, and replaced her instead with an artificial new masculine eye in an attempt to bring himself glory. In a fury she exiled herself to the wild deserts and, like Lilith of Mesopotamian myth, became "The Distant Goddess" or the lost feminine goddess. Humanity is born from her tears of grief and anger.

Quickly, the sun god Atum becomes vulnerable and "blind" without his feminine eye. He realizes he cannot live without her and pleads for her return. She eventually agrees, and he reinstates her on his forehead as the Uraeus serpent of feminine vision and power, at the third eye chakra of the Vedic traditions. From this time forward all kings would wear the Uraeus serpent headdress — the feminine eye of the moon — as a symbol of sovereignty, authority, and divine power granted by the goddess Wadjet.
