Goddess Isis

Goddess Isis Cover
Egyptian Moon Goddess, Great Mother and Giver of Life. With Osiris, Isis and Horus (the divine child) made up a Holy Trinity. She is the Goddess of marriage, motherhood, fertility, magick, healing, reincarnation and divination, to name a few. Isis is the patroness of priestesses.

One myth has Isis poisoning the Sun God Ra, offering to save him only if he would reveal his secret name. At last, at the brink of destruction, Ra gives Isis his heart, with the secret name it held, and his two eyes (the Sun and the Moon).

Isis quells the poison and ends up with Ra's supreme power. In time the great Eye was passed along to her son Horus. Proclus mentions a statue of her which bore the inscription "I am that which is, has been and shall be. My veil no one has lifted." Hence, to lift the veil of Isis is to pierce the heart of a great mystery.

Sheela Na Gig

Sheela Na Gig Image
The "sheela na gig" is the crossroads where fertility and steriilty, birth and death meet. The "sheela na gig" is a genre of ancient Celtic images depicting a naked wizened crone holding her legs open as if she were giving birth, although she is clearly too old to do so. The "sheela na gig" stretches her parturient vagina open with her hands as if it were a gate, while looking the viewer in the eye.

Many traditional belief systems perceive the Earth Mother as the ultimate source of life and death. One returns to her after death only to emerge again. The "sheela na gig" invites you to contemplate these mysteries

* Create an altar of contemplation with a sheela na gig as the focal point.

* Combine images of fertility and death - include pomegranates, bones, seashells, and feathers.

* If one is brave or curious enough, visualize stepping through the gate the "sheela na gig" holds open.

The Dodonean Jupiter  

Posted by Unknown

The Dodonean Jupiter Image
Jupiter was called Dodonean after the city of Dodona in Epirus. Near this city was a hill thickly covered with oak trees which from the most ancient times had been sacred to Jupiter. The grove was further venerated because dryads, fauns, satyrs, and nymphs were believed to dwell in its depths. From the ancient oaks and beeches were hung many chains of tiny bronze bells which tinkled day and night as the wind swayed the branches. Some assert that the celebrated talking dove of Dodona was in reality a woman, because in Thessaly both prophetesses and doves were called Peleiadas. It is supposed that the first temple of Dodona was erected by Deucalion and those who survived the great flood with him. For this reason the oracle a Dodona was considered the oldest in Greece.

Goddess Urd Image
"URD" IS THE NAME OF THE ELDEST, AND PERHAPS THE MOST IMPORTANT, OF THE NORNS...THREE SISTERS WHO WERE THE NORSE GODDESSES OF FATE. HER NAME IS DERIVED FROM THE GERMAN, "UR", WHICH MEANS PAST, PRIMORDIAL, OR VIRGIN. THE SISTERS REPRESENTED TIME, SO "URD", THE "NORN" OF THE PAST WAS DEPICTED AS AN ANCIENT CRONE WITH WHITE HAIR WHO WAS CONSTANTLY LOOKING BACKWARDS....TOWARDS THE PAST. SHE PERSONIFIES ALL THINGS THAT HAVE GONE ON BEFORE, IN THE PAST, WHICH HAS CAUSED BOTH THE PRESENT AND WILL CAUSE THE FUTURE. SHE WAS THE GUARDIAN OF THE SACRED "FOUNTAIN OF TIME" WHO SPINS UPON HER WHEEL THE THREAD OF FATE GENERATED BY US IN THE PAST. "URD" WAS CONSIDERED AS BENEVOLENT.

BENEATH ONE OF THE ROOTS OF THE "YGGDRASILL" LIES THE "WELL OF URD." THIS IS THE SPRING OF DESTINY AND THE HOME OF THE "NORNS". THIS IS WHERE THE "AESIR "GATHER TO HOLD THEIR COUNCILS AND TO GAIN THE INSIGHT OF THE "NORNS". ODIN" HIMSELF FREQUENTLY RODE DOWN TO THE SACRED FOUNTAIN TO SEEK HER AID, FOR THEY GENERALLY ANSWERED ALL HIS QUESTIONS, MAINTAINING SILENCE ONLY ABOUT HIS OWN FATE AND THAT OF HIS FELLOW GODS.
