That second sip is the part that actually reaches the nerve.

Your body has been braced since somebody said the small mean word at a fairground. Bracing isn't weakness — it's a nervous system doing the job it evolved for. The trouble is nobody ever tells the body when the thing is over, so it holds that shape into September, into a jaw that clicks and a shoulder that will not come down.

Sgrìobh i: #27: An Dealbh Sgriosail

Sin thu fhèin! 👋Tha an t-àm ann a-nis buannaiche na farpais-sgrìobhaidh a bh’ againn san Lùnastal fhoillseachadh! 🏆Ach an toiseach, seo an cuspair a-rithist:Tha cuideigin a’ lorg uidheam-smachd cèin a chuireas an ùine air ais deich mionaidean.Dè thachras an uair sin?Someone finds a remote control that rewinds time by 10 minutes.What happens next?Cothrom èibhinn eile, tha sinn an dòchas, gus do chuid sgilean-sgrìobhaidh a chur gu feum! Ghabh triùir pàirt san fharpais - ’s iad Gwen, Steffi agus Jenny. Ach chan fhaod sinn ach aon bhuannaiche a-mhàin a thaghadh. Agus an turas seo……’s e Gwen a th’ ann.

An Dealbh Sgriosail

Gwen

[Gàidhlig]Bha Lilidh na h-oileanach ealain agus cha robh ach beagan uairean a thìde air fhàgail gus a pròiseact deireannach a chrìochnachadh. B’ e seo dealbh mòr de mhuir stoirmeil air an robh i air seachdainean de dh’obair a chur seachad, ach bha e fhathast a’ coimhead sgriosail!Nuair a ghabh Lilidh ceum air ais a choimhead air, bhuail i uidheam smachd iomallach an telebhisein far a’ bhùird. Rug i air dìreach mus do bhuail e an làr, ach bhrùth i am putan dearg gun fhiosta. Gu h-obann, las an seòmar agus mhothaich i gun robh an gleoc air leum air ais deich mionaidean...…

Pangrattato. Italian grandmothers have called it poor man's parmesan for four hundred years. Cost: nothing. Keeps a week in a jar.

Aran — bread.

The heel of the loaf and the two hard slices nobody wanted. Tear them with your hands — never a knife, the ragged edges are the entire point. Dry skillet, medium, a glug of oil, a smashed clove, salt. Six minutes, shaking.

They go the color of a paper bag and the kitchen smells like a bakery.

Air mo dhòigh glan 's gun d'fhuair mi an cothrom seo fheuchainn an-de aig a' Whisky Fringe.

Taigh-staile Caledonian Dhùn Èideann, nach maireann, 1964. Abair dramag!

Over the moon to have tried this rare Caledonian 1964 grain whisky from Edinburgh's closed Haymarket distillery. Lovely!

Шэнизм
Кита‌йская наро‌дная рели‌гия (кит. трад. 中國民間信仰, упр. 中国民间信仰, пиньинь Zhōngguó mínjiān xìnyăng, палл. Чжунго миньцзянь синьян) или шэни‌зм (от кит. 神, пиньинь shén, палл. шэнь «божество, дух») — комплекс религиозных представлений, сложившихся в ходе исторического развития китайской цивилизации. Является эклектическим сочетанием религиозных верований и практик, основанных, прежде всего, на почитании предков и сил природы, добрых и злых духов, а также Неба; примерно к XI веку сложился синкретизм, основанный на буддийских представлениях о карме и перерождении, а также даосском учении об иерархии богов.

“Where are our roots? How do we make ourselves at home? How does the stranger come to feel at home? Maybe we need to remind ourselves of what a family is, what it could be, and what it stands for, to begin to make sense of the wider world.”

“An Eala Bhan” (“The White Swan”) has been performed by a huge number of Gaelic artists from Julie Fowlis to Capercallie & Linda Macleod who grew up in the same part of North Uist as Dòmhnall Ruadh Chorùna. She speaks here to Cathy McDonald about the significance of the song and the man behind it

Gur duilich leam mar tha mi
’S mo chridhe ’n sàs aig bròn
Bhon an uair a dh’fhàg mi
Beanntan ard a’ cheò
Gleanntannan a’ mhànrain
Nan loch, nam bàgh ‘s nan sròm
’S an eala bhàn tha tàmh orra
Gach là air ’m bheil mi ’n tòir…

—Dòmhnall Ruadh Chorùna, “An Eala Ban”

The First Battle of the Somme began #OTD, 1 July, 1916. Dòmhnall Ruadh Chorùna / Donald MacDonald composed “An Eala Bhan” (“The White Swan”) during the battle.

Gabh anail — take a breath — and let the next one be longer going out than coming in. Tha an talamh gad chumail — the earth is holding you. Not a metaphor: gravity, the floor, the oldest promise the ground ever made and never once broke. https://twp.ai/4hsZED

I liked this episode a lot, I thought it captured the multi-factored deterioration of the language playing out over a couple of hundred years.

While #AnGortaMór / #IrishFamine is one of the pivotal events behind the collapse of the language, it is far from the only factor

“The richness of Donnchadh Bàn’s language becomes a metaphor for the richness of nature... The poem is a song & the music itself becomes a metaphor for the co-existence of different forms of life”

“An entire system of comharran – Gaelic navigational marks – surrounds the islands… A wealth of knowledge about the creatures which populate these fishing grounds is also encoded within the Gaelic language.”

Banshees

A banshee (Bean si in Modern Irish & ben side, in Old Irish, meaning “woman of the fairy mound,” or “fairy woman”) is a female spirit in Irish folklore who heralds the death of a family member. She usually does this by screaming, wailing, shrieking, or keening. Keening is a traditional form of vocal lament for the dead in the Gaelic Celtic tradition. This is known to have taken place in Ireland & Scotland.

Banshees are strongly associated with specific Irish families. The belief is that the banshee is a family spirit attached to a particular lineage. Her mournful wail/cry is heard only by family members as a warning of an imminent death.

Another of the banshee characteristics is their unwavering attachment to certain Gaelic families such as the O’Neills, O’Brians, O’Connors, O’Grady, & Kavanaghs, among others. Some traditions hold that the banshee is the ghost. This is perhaps a mother of a famous poet/singer from the family who died tragically. In this sense, she’s an ancestral spirit tied to the bloodline & the land.

She appears or is heard only to mourn & warn the family of an impending death. Often before anyone has received news of it. This direct, specific role makes her an inherently familiar guardian or omen for that clan/family.

They aren’t family pets, the banshees presence is a known, if terrifying, part of the family’s history & destiny, linking her fate to theirs across generations.

A banshee is an autonomous entity, a powerful fairy-woman (bean sidhe) or ghost, isn’t under the control of any living person.

Sometimes she has long streaming hair, which she may be seen combing, with some legends specifying she can only be keen while combing her hair. She wears a gray cloak over a green dress. Her eyes are red from continual weeping. She’s sometimes dressed in white with red hair & a ghastly complexion.

In Ireland & parts of Scotland, a traditional part of mourning is the keening woman (bean chaointe), who wails a lament. This keening woman may be a professional, in some cases. The best Keeners would be in high demand.

Irish legends talks about a lament being sung by a fairy woman, or banshee. She would sing it when a family member died or was about to die. Even if the person had died far away & news of their death hasn’t come yet. In those cases, her wailing would be the 1st warning the household had of the death.

The banshee is also a predictor of death. If someone is about to enter a situation where it’s unlikely they’ll come out alive, she’ll warn people by screaming/wailing. This gives rise to the banshee also being known as a wailing woman. The banshee was also linked with the death coach. The banshee is said to either summon the death coach with her keening or travel in tandem with it.

When several banshees show up at 1 time, it usually indicates the death of someone holy or great. The story sometimes tells that the woman (though called a fairy) was a ghost. She’s often a specific murdered woman, or a man who passed away in childbirth.

In some parts of Leinster, she’s referred to as the bean chaointe or ban nigheachain (“little washerwoman”) or nigheag na h-ath (“little washer at the ford”). She’s seen washing bloodstained clothes or armor of those who are about to die.

In Welsh folklore, there’s also a similar being known as the cyhyraeth. The cyhyraeth gives a disembodied moaning voice before the person’s passing.

Some sources suggest that the banshees Laments only the descendants of pure Milesian stock of Ireland. The Milesians were the final race to settle in Ireland. The original belief appears to be associated with a number of ancient Irish families. According to tradition, a banshee wouldn’t lament or visit someone of Saxon or Norman descent or those who came to Ireland later.

Most, not all, of the last names associated with banshees have the “O” or “Mc/Mac” prefix. That means people with the last names of Goidelic origin. This means a family native to the Insular Celtic lands. Rather than those of the Norse, Anglo-Saxon, or Norman.

There are some exceptions to the banshee lore. A banshee may lament a person who’s been gifted with music & song.

#Snowdrops in the grass #meadow. A photograph to acknowledge #Candlemas, or #Imbolc, tomorrow, 2 February.
The #Christmas period is truly over now as we head into late winter.
Imbolc falls halfway between the winter #solstice and the spring #equinox. It is a #Gaelic traditional festival celebrating light and the first signs of #spring.
Every year I hope for the snowdrops to rise up through the snow - in vain.
