Philippines raises alert level at restive Mayon volcano

https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://interaksyon.philstar.com/politics-issues/2026/01/06/307226/philippines-raises-alert-level-at-restive-mayon-volcano/

St. Anne

According to Christian tradition, St. Anne was the mom of the Virgin Mary, wife of St. Joachim, & was Jesus’ maternal grandma.

Her name isn’t in the Bible’s canonical Gospels. In writing, Anne’s name, & Joachim’s come from New Testament apocrypha. The Gospel of Thomas (written circa 150 AD) seems to be the earliest that mentions them. She’s mentioned in the Quran, but not by name.

The Immaculate Conception was eventually made dogma by the Catholic Church following an increased devotion to Anne in the 12th century. In Eastern Christianity dedications start as early as 6th century.

In the Eastern Orthodox tradition, Anne & Joachim are attributed to the title Ancestor of God. Both the Nativity of Mary & the Presentation of Mary are celebrated as 2 of the 12 Great Feasts of the Orthodox Church.

The Dormition of Anne is also a minor feast in Eastern Christianity. In Lutheranism, it’s believed that Martin Luther chose to enter religious life as an Augustinian friar after invoking St. Anne was jeopardized by lightning.

In the 4th century, & in the 15th century, a belief arose that Mary was conceived of Anne without original sin. The Immaculate Conception is often confused with the Annunciation of the Incarnation (Mary’s virgin birth of Jesus). The 13th century Speculum Maius includes information regarding the life of St. Anne.

In the Eastern church, the veneration of Anne herself may go back as far as circa 550, when Justinian built a church in Constantinople in her honor. The earliest pictorial sign of her veneration in the West in an 8th century fresco in the church of Santa Maria Antique, Rome.

The Feast of the Conception of the Virgin Mary had reached southern Italy by the 9th century. In the Latin Church, St. Anne wasn’t venerated. Except, perhaps, in the south of France, before the 13th century. A shrine at Douai (in northern France) was 1 of the early centers of devotion to St. Anne in the West.

The Anna Selbdritt was a type of iconography showing 3 generations of the “Holy Family,” St. Anne, the Virgin Mary, & Jesus (grandma, mom, son). This style of iconography emphasized the humanity of Jesus. It drew on the earlier conventions of the Seat of Wisdom. (The Seat of Wisdom is/are icons/sculptures that shows the Virgin Mary is seated on a throne with Jesus, as a kid, on her lap.) This was popular in northern Germany in the 1500s.

Two well-known shrines to St. Anne is that of Ste-Anne-d’Auray in Brittany (France) & that of Ste.-Anne-de-Beaupre near the city of Quebec. The number of pilgrims to the Basilica of Ste.-Anne-de-Beaupre is the greatest of St. Anne’s Feast Day (July 26), & the Sunday before the Nativity of the Virgin Mary (September 8). In 1892, Pope Leo XIII sent a relic of St. Anne to the church.

By the middle of the 7th century, a distinct feast day, the Conception of St. Anne (Maternity of Holy Anne) celebrating Mary by St. Anne, was observed at the Monastery of St. Sabas.

It’s now known in the Greek Orthodox Church as the feast of “The Conception by St. Anne of the Most Holy Theotokos.” It’s celebrated on December 9th. In the Catholic Church, the Feast of Saints Anne & Joachim is celebrated on July 26. The alleged relics of St. Anne was brought from the Holy Land to Constantinople in 710 & was kept there in the church of St. Sophia as late as 1333.

During the 12th & 13th centuries, returning crusaders & pilgrims from the East brought St. Anne’s relics to some churches, including most famously those at Apt, in Provence, Ghent, & Chartres. St. Anne’s relics have been preserved & venerated in the many cathedrals & monasteries dedicated to her name.

For example, in Austria, Canada, Germany, Italy, & Greece in the semi-autonomous Mount Athos, & the city of Katerini. Duren has been the main place of pilgrimage for Anne since 1506, when Pope Julius II decreed that her relics should be kept there, after they were stolen from the church of St. Stephen in Mainz.

The Church of St. Anne in Beit Guvrin National Park was built by the Byzantines & the crusaders in the 12th century. This is known in Arabic as Khirbet Sandahanna, the mound of Maresha being called Tell Sandahanna.

St. Anne is the patroness of unmarried women, housewives, women in labor or who want to be pregnant, grandmothers, moms, & educators. She’s also a patroness of horseback riders, cabinet-makers, & miners.

As the mom of Mary, this devotion to St. Anne as the patron of miners arises from the medieval comparison between Mary & Jesus & the precious metals: gold & silver. Anne’s womb was considered the source from which these precious metals were mined.

St. Anne is the patron saint of Brittany (France); Cuenca (Ecuador); Chinandega (Nicaragua); the Mi’kmaq people of Canada; Castelbuono (Sicily); Quebec (Canada); Santa Ana (California); Norwich (Connecticut); Detroit (Michigan); Adjunta (Puerto Rico); Santa Ana & Jucuaran (El Salvador); Berlin (New Hampshire); Santa Ana Pueblo, Seama, & Taos (New Mexico); Chiclana de la Frontera, Marsaskala, Tuadela, Atarfe & Fasnia (Spain); Town of Sta Ana Province of Pampanga, Molo, Iloilo City, Balasan; Iloilo, Hagnoy, Santa Ana, Taguig City, St. Anne Shrine, Malicboy, Pagbilao, Quezon, & Malinao, Albay (Philippines); Santana (Brazil); St. Anne (Illinois); Sainte Anne Island; Baie Sainte Anne & Praslin Island (Seychelles); Bukit Mertajam & Port Klang (Malaysia); Kl’ucove (Slovakia) & South Vietnam.

The parish church of Vatican City is Sant’ Anna dei Palafrenieri. There’s a shrine dedicated to St. Anne in the Woods in Bristol, United Kingdom.

Anne is also revered in Islam, recognized as a highly spiritual woman & as the mom of Mary. She’s not named in the Quran. She’s called “the wife of Imran.” The Quran describes her remaining childless until old age. One day, Anne saw a bird feeding its young while sitting in the shade of a tree, which awakened her desire to have kids of her own.

She prayed for a kid & eventually conceived. Imran, her husband, died before the kid was born. Anne expected the unborn kid to be a boy, so she vowed to dedicate “him” to isolation & service in the Second Temple.

Anne had a daughter (Mary) instead. Anne named her: Mary. Anne’s words upon delivering Mary reflect as a great mystic, realizing that while she’d had wanted a son, this daughter was God’s gift to her.

#FloodPatrol #PepitoPH Bgy. Putsan, Tiwi, #Albay | November 17, 2024

Dahil sa Bagyong Pepito, nakararanas ng baha sa Bgy. Putsan, Tiwi, Albay ngayong araw, Nobyembre 17.

#Bagyo

Nagsisilbing evacuation center ng limang pamilya ang isang bahay sa Brgy. 5, Malilipot, #Albay dahil sa banta ng Bagyong #PepitoPH.

Binuksan ni Bayan Patroller Ayen Biso ang kanyang bahay para matulungang lumikas ang kanyang mga kapitbahay na binubuo ng mga 10 bata, 11 matatanda, at dalawang senior citizen.

#Bagyo

Malakas na alon sa Bgy. Carogcog, Rapu-Rapu, Albay kaninang umaga, Nobyembre 16.

#Albay

Sa isang mall nag-evacuate ang halos 156 na pamilya sa Bgy. Ubaliw, Polangui, #Albay bilang paghahanda sa Bagyong #PepitoPH.

#Bagyo

Abala na sa pamimili ang mga residente ng Nabua, #CamarinesSur at Ligao City, #Albay bilang paghahanda sa Bagyong #PepitoPH. Dahil dito, nagkakaubusan na ng paninda sa ilang supermarket.

NOTE
1. The flood hazard data has invalid geometries/features. You can resolve this by fixing the geometries (takes a long time) or simply disabling the Invalid features filtering in QGIS processing settings.
2. Some areas have no flood hazard features. These are marked as NO DATA in the maps.

...
3. Generate centroids from the output of #2 (either using the Centroids algorithm or Geometry generators).
4. To speed up and automate the process, I created a model that runs steps 1-3 above.
5. Style the output of 3 using: marker = hexagon, size = depends on population, color = depends on hazard level (Var). Utilize data-defined overrides/Assistant.

#30DayMapChallenge #30DayMapChallenge2024 #Day4 #Hexagons #MadeWithQGIS #QGIS #FOSS4G #Kontur #UPRI #Flood #NCR #Albay #Cebu #Pangasinan

PROCESS
1. Use the "Sort" algorithm to create an ordered version of the flood hazard layer such that the features with high hazard level (3) will always be the first feature that will be matched in #2 below.
2. Run a "Join attributes by Location" between the population hex grid layer and the sorted/ordered flood hazard layer (output of #1).

#Albay

The three most active volcanoes in the #Philippines are currently restless.

1. #Mayon volcano, located in the province of #Albay, in the #Bicol region.

It is the most active in the Philippines, and the world's most perfectly shaped volcano.

It is currently at Alert Level 3.

Evacuation of residents around the designated permanent danger zone started early in the morning of June 9th UTC+0800.

2. #Taal volcano, located in the province of #Batangas. The world's only volcano within a lake, within an island, within a lake, within an island. Second most active in the Philippines.

It is currently at Alert Level 2.

3. #Kanlaon volcano, located in the provinces of #Negros Occidental and Oriental; or Negros island.

It is the country's third most active volcano, and is showing signs of imminent phreatic eruption. It has been at Alert Level 1 since 2020.

Expect volcanic related #earthquakes. A mild-strong volcanic related #earthquake from Taal can be felt all the way to Metro Manila, the country's National Capital Region. The distance between Taal volcano and Manila is 80 km in a straight line.
