The Witch and the moon

[sergioguymanproust]

This legend is as old as medieval times,when darkness rule the land and peasants lived in constant fears of all the creatures of the night.From the living to the undead ,critters and cryptids that roam the villages searching for innocent farmers to be snatched and consumed by the denizens of the night.Witches come from the north where the land gets cold and dark and raven and crows scavenge and kill small animals,rats squirrels and leftover carcasses.The witches often take these birds as pets and train them to be messengers.In olden times witches were seek to heal and give potions for spells to keep bad spirits away ,in exchange for silver and gold coins and herbs and dead animals to be used in battle and rituals.Also this typical stereotype of a witch flying on a broomstick to the coven,is a false one ,what they really did was to smear belladonna ointments on their legs and then effect was one of complete numbness and a trance that make them believe they were flying.The moon energy was crucial to their rituals to get maximum results.Words by Sergio GuymanProust.

John Collier (1850–1934) - Lilith, 1887

“Lilith has had many faces throughout history. Originally, she was worshiped as a Sumerian goddess, who lived with the Snake and the Anzu bird tribe of the World Tree. At the command of the goddess Inana, the tree was split and Lilith fled to an unknown area. In Aramaic legends and incantations, the name Lilith appears as a term for demons that haunt man at night and have been held responsible for the sudden infantile death. While the biblical translation of Martin Luther seeks the name Lilith in vain, it is described in other Bible translations that the home of Lilith is the desert. The modern emancipation has chosen Lilith as a symbol for the independence of the woman. It represents the counterpart to Eve, who submits to patriarchal rule. The roots are in the Jewish-emancipatory theology. Lilith is the learned strong woman who, unlike Eve, resists the temptations of the devil and defies the rule of Adam, the man. As the first woman of Adam, according to another tradition, she has led God to betray his holy name. She asked for wings from God and flew away. In his painting, Collier focuses on the demonic side of Lilith as a sensual and seductive woman and symbol of sexuality. Compositionally as well, apart from Lilith, everything else stays in the shade. Through the serpent, with whom she lives in harmony, Lilith is staged as an antithesis to Eve and as an ally of the dark side. This is her fate in the modern media world, where she usually takes on the role of evil” source
