After you receive this, you must share 5 random facts about yourself and then copy and send to your ten fave followers (・ω・) :*
Yeah, alright. :)1.) I dropped my husband off for bootcamp today.2.) I'm active in three communities on tumblr. Points if you can guess the other two, because they're really crazy.3.) I love the ocean more than I love most things.4.) I art a lot.5.) My favorite sabbat is Yule because it was the first sabbat I ever celebrated.
Excuse me, I would like to ask if you know something about allergies. I mean, I'm allergic to cats, but i really really love them, so I want to try things to stop or control allergies. Can you help me? So I can have my cat without dying. Thanks!! :)
Honestly the only thing I can in good conscious advise is to take a Benadryl and talk to your doctor. There's not really a magick way around allergies unfortunately. If there was I wouldn't be allergic to cats either, haha :)
Okay.
It's been a few months, my husband leaves for bootcamp today, and I've got some guidelines for myself to follow. So after my husband's send off today. I will be returning to tumblr.
You have a beautiful child! Congrats on his wiccaning and being a parent! Many blessings to you and your family! =)
Thank you very much! :)

First one of the season. Let me extended a big fat “No.” from the entire religious community here on tumblr. Your history is wrong and you should feel bad.
I wish these would quit fucking showing up. Every goddamn year this shit starts up again.

and I have already had to explain to a friend of ours that these are wrong on Facebook because he has issues with Protestant Christianity and likes to share things where they look bad, and they’re making the rounds over there. This is the kind of shit that makes us look bad.
Prove it then. All Christian holidays are stolen and the above is truth. Every Christian celebration is laid right over the top of a Pagan holiday. Do your research sheep.
Easter is the word used in English due to it’s evolution out of French and German, taken from the German word for the holiday, Ostare, which was a pagan holiday for Spring and there is no proof there was a goddess of the same name.
Easter, in every other Western language is some derivative of the Hebrew Paschad. Most of Christianity does not speak English/German. In Spanish, the word is Pascua.
Easter is derived for Paschad. Christianity was born from Judaism. “Ishtar” has absolutely nothing to do with it.
In fact, during Easter mass, Jesus is referred as the Pascal Lamb. And in religious art in general.
Pagan derived traditions are because when people convert, they take their cultural traditions with them. Most of Christianity does the pretty eggs because of the immigration of Germans/Anglos, colonization/conquest of Germans/English, and because people just thought painting eggs and eating eggs seems like a great idea as a holiday tradition.
I hope you feel enlightened.
Great cut and paste job.. do the pretty eggs?… Eostre is a Teutonic goddess of fertility and Spring.
That’s the product of my own research, but you flatter me if you think I got it from somewhere. Teutonic goddess? Oy vey, let me guess, you are a Murray fangirl too? May I direct you to TheWitchBlog? You’ll be fast friends.
Love the absolute lack of rebuttal. Take your time though.

care to educate this one about Oestre’s less than definitive role?
It’s all Jacob Grimm’s fault.
I don’t care if people worship Eotsre (or however you want to spell it. Just please, be aware that there is no solid historical evidence for her. The only vaguely period mention of the name is a single sentence in Bede’s “Ecclesiastical History”. And he’s just trying to explain why the people in England have such a weird name for the paschal month (the moth of Easter). So yeah, she’s mentioned but there’s no way to tell if his assertion is correct. And again, he’s the only source mentioning her at this point so there’s no real way of knowing if his claims of the month being named after an old local deity are accurate at all or what said goddess would have represented or been like, if indeed she did exist, because it’s never discussed. All he says is that the month is named after an old goddess. That’s it.
That wasn’t so bad though. Bede makes similar claims in regards to other month names and nobody really pays attention to those. No. The real problems stated once Jacob Grimm started making claims about the alleged goddess in the early 1800s. He made unfounded claims and unlikely conclusions to serve his own agenda and started filling her in a bit. Everything else seems to grow out of the seeds he planted.
As I said before, I don’t care if people worship her. If you have experiences with a goddess that I don’t that’s fine. But there’s very little evidence for her historically, and the holiday and it’s traditions certainly weren’t “stolen” from Germanic pagans.
Don't call me sweetheart. Swear to god?? What God. And THEY are sheep.. it's what they like being called.
You are so incredibly mature. I'm not going to fight with you. You've made it clear to me that's what you want. Send whatever you want, reply, whatever. I'm not talking to you again after this.
Oh, haha. That reminds me of why I got on here in the first place. I’m going to delete my tumblr in a couple of days and move exclusively to Wordpress for blogging. If you’d like to follow me there I’m going to post a link in a little bit. You can also add my Facebook which is linked in my about me if you don’t have a Wordpress and I’ll be posting there every time I make a new blog post.
I’ll give this like three days. :)
SADNESS. INFINITE SADNESS.
I'm sorry. ♡ at least you know me irl. You can never loose me. Lol that'd be kinda bad if I lost track of my son's fairy god father.

Wasn’t this covered last year?
It's covered every year. But there's new people every year. Lol

But why wordpress…
I like it. It's an actually blogging format, but I also have the option of reblogging if I want to. I'm going to have to do something with the layout as much as I can, but otherwise it's perfect for me.
For anyone interested.
