The land doesn't hold its shape that way. Two breaths, then: in through the nose, a second short sip stacked on top, out long and ragged. Three times.
That second sip is the part that actually reaches the nerve.Cùm do chasan air an talamh — keep your feet on the ground.
What am I still asking permission to call mine? Ask me...

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.

Cumaidh an talamh cuimhne — the earth keeps memory. Let it keep some of yours today. You are not required to hold all of it.
Beannachd na tìre ort — mairidh am freumh. The blessing of the land upon you — the root endures.

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.

“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.

Spirituality & Religious Studies @spiritualityreligiousstudies.wordpress.com@spiritualityreligiousstudies.wordpress.com ·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.

Runrig: Fichead Bliadhna
Critique Scotland's education system until the early 1980s when native #Gaelic -speaking children were often beaten for using their mother-tongue.
Freedom of the moor
Freedom of the hill
And then to school at the end of summer
Children,
Five years of age,
Without a word of English in our heads -

#Imbolc (or #Imbolg) marked the first day of #spring in pre-Christian #Gaelic culture. Between the darkness of winter and the brightness of summer, spring was a time of planting, or renewal, and of rebirth; as such, it was associated with the goddess #Brigid.
Brigid of Kildare was named after the goddess, so naturally she became associated with the day after being declared a saint (and absorbing many of the goddess' other attributes). That's why Imbolc is also #SaintBrigidsDay

Supper and a new #book to read, a new collection of Scottish #poetry 1730-1830. Really looking forward to this. My own #PhD looked at Scottish reading habits in the same period, but I need to read more of the texts being read! #Books #Supper #Literature #ScottishLiterature #ScottishPoetry #Gaelic #GaelicPoetry #EighteenthCentury #18thCentury #ScottishHistory #Reading #ReadingHabits

Tha mi ag ionnsachadh #Gàidhlig an-dràsta agus a' dèanamh SQA Higher. Nuair a bha mi ann am Beul Feirste Dihaoine, cheannach mi leabhar inntinneach (anns a' Chultùrlann McAdam O Fiach) làn de sgeulachdan air a sgrìobhadh ann an Gàidhlig Reachrainn (Rathlin Gaelic), Gàidhlig, agus Gàidhlig na h-Èireann. 'S e am "missing link" a th' ann an Gàidhlig Reachrainn eadar Gàidhlig agus #Gaeilge! 😀 #Rathlin #NorthernIreland #Scotland #Gaelic
