The autumnal equinox (September 23, 2010)























" The autumn equinox
Generally September 23 , here named
Modron.


the autumnal equinox signals the end of the harvest of cereals and vegetables. The harvest is expected now be free, and the organization to survive the next few months go well. The herds are gathered to be renewed in security around the village. The latest hunts take place in forests and swamps, we end up adding salt or smoke the fish for storage, timber is harvested and cut to the fire that will burn throughout the winter.
It's time to reap what has been done and make a list of goals still to achieve, mentally adjusting their planning for next year. "

name
"Nobody knows the original name of the spring equinox. The neo-pagan have called Mabon, although it is surprising to associate the divine youth to cool the winter, the days getting shorter and the profits of the harvest. Modron (the nurturing mother goddess) or Rosmerta ("Good Providence") seem more appropriate. "

(Taylor, Joules. The Book of Celtic symbols. Symbols, rites and legends for daily life, trans. Natasha Grüner Edition Counter Sayings, Paris, 2007, p.16)



Based on what is said above,
Celtic deities associated with this seasonal feast:



Mother Modron
"Modron is a figure more discreet, a little more difficult to identify than the other aspects of the mother goddess. It symbolizes the fertile earth, and the more archaic of motherhood. She fiercely protects her children, ready for anything - even kill - to save them. It can be invoked when her children are in danger or when faced with insurmountable obstacles. Mabon, the Divine Youth, is his son.

attributes are Modron achievement, power, strength and endurance . "

Rosmerta
Rosmerta
" ALSO KNOWN AS Good Providence Rosmerta is the goddess of overflowing abundance and fertility of the Earth. She takes care of fruits and vegetation, which are associated with honey and herbs.

attributes are Rosmerta hospitality, generosity, prosperity and heart on his sleeve. It is tolerant and welcomes warmly and affectionately. Its symbol is the cornucopia. "

Additional space

A pile of things to say, many things I love. I want to speak as a vegetarian and ecological maintenance of the house, and this in a different concept of what the intricacies of the fabric provide a constant sickly.
And as this blog begins to look like a mess, a new space was needed.
Here is a new blog, complementary to this, where financial savings, vegetarianism and ecology reign supreme, Hand in Hand:

The plant's working-class neighborhood

I hope I have something different, interesting and useful. :)

Motorbike Walkie Talkies

My ancestors


No need to go halfway around the world to hear groups of neo-folk music. Here, there are some who know together modern and traditional music, urban legends. Better yet, some faced the same commercial success. Surprising? Yes and no, say it is legitimate to say that this shows that the genre is becoming more respected and loved by people.
We have the right to be proud our roots.

My ancestors part of this movement. This group of funklore blend perfectly good old traditional folk music with funk, disco, bossa nova, French chanson, and even rap.
I think this group is one that Quebec was able to offer the best in the arts in recent years.
My ancestors combines originality and poetry, while providing ecological and social themes with music often festive.
Ce groupe chante tout à la fois le merveilleux de notre folklore (le diable qui vient danser, la Corriveau, Alexis le Trotteur, la Chasse-Galerie, etc), et la modernité. 

La jeunesse, paumée, sans point de repères, a droit de paroles. Mais, s'il y a bien une chose qui distingue Mes aïeux de la masse musicale, c'est bien son côté intergénérationel. Oui oui! Je parle d'expérience puisque j'ai moi-même vu le groupe plusieurs fois en spectacles : le public est véritablement constitué de gens de 7 à 77 ans! Sans rire, une fois, dans une salle, j'ai vu des couples at least 80 years typed into their hands in rhythm to people 20 years! It is also very likely that my ancestors is the only group in this country that asks its audience to sit for the last song of the evening ... in respect for elders in the audience, exhausted from having taken the young people! :)

A question often seems to return to their writing: can we be about values without once engulfed in an inappropriate attachment to the past? The group opened channels of thinking, and provide early answers in their songs ...

But enough chatter. Leave room for the music ... or at least a few songs!

A traditional song back on a more funk! A marvel. And the clip reflects the concept of diamond digger. Not to mention the finale that recalls both the old tales of our ancestors, which often machinent some devilry.

The rest of the warrior

"Singing with the hare, fox and wolf
tack to cover wolverine
Playing with an old leprechaun
down in the cave with wisps
Leave poetry to decide his fate in the morning and
Nightlife accept death
biting through life without thinking about tomorrow
Turning straight to his destiny ... "

... One of my favorite songs of the group. :)
(and note that the end of a verse is the beginning of next!)
And the clip offers a great performance chamano-psychotropic. hehe


Belle, embark

This song echoes in the music player this blog for some time.

One of the most beautiful song the group. Based on the oldest patriotic song from our ancestors, it deals with the remaining marketing drinking water ...
I want to say that members of my ancestors are spokesmen for the coalition Eau Secours! , an organization that advocates for responsible management of drinking water.

I'll let you discover the rest yourself. :)
