  6. I know I’ve quiet, but I’ve been working on a concept album for the magic year for the Jutish / Anglo / Saxon people. I have just finished the music for Mōdraniht — Mother’s Night (tonight) where we celebrate the great mother goddesses: Frigg, Hreða and Éostre.

    Who wants to hear it?

  11. 22nd April, Today we commemorate the last British #Pagan King, and last king of the #IsleOfWight Arwald.

    On this day in 686, Cædwalla, King of Wessex invaded the #Jutish kingdom of Wihtwara, the land of Whit [ ᚹᛁᚻᛏ ] (Spirits / Supernatural Beings).

    Arwald had sent his two son to his kinsfolk, the Meonwara to keep them safe.

    Due to their superior size, the army of Cædwalla were victorious. However, not without many casualties. #Folklore says that Arwald dealt Cædwalla a near fatal wound that never healed and would ultimately take his life many years later. The story says, that the last curse, uttered using the last of the old magic was from Arwald's lips as he struck Cædwalla.

    After the battle, Cædwalla sent his men the commit genocide on the island. A memory that still runs deep on the Island, even to this day.

    The two princes were also betrayed after they had been forced to convert to #christianity -- Cædwalla had them killed.

    This is not the of the story, the sister of Arwald was the wife of the King of #Kent and was the great great great Grandmother of #AlfredTheGreat. One could argue, the line of Wiht is behind the whole of the British royal family.

  16. Why do people always try to school me on #AngloSaxon and #Jutish #history?

    There is always one who thinks they’re someone sort of expert and comes off looking like an idiot. The #DunningKruger is strong with this one.

  21. Having a little conversation with #ChatGPT about #OldEnglish. Here is the transcript:

    me: can you give me an old English word that means sea fog

    gpt: The Old English word for "sea fog" is "brume".

    me: No it isn't brume, brume is not an old English word. please try again, what is the old English for sea fog

    gpt: I apologize for the mistake in my previous answer. The Old English word for "sea fog" is actually "hǣð" or "hǣðstybb".

    me: No, you are wrong "hǣð" means "heath" and "hǣðstybb" is not a real old English word. Please try again, what is the Old English for Sea Fog

    gpt: I apologize for the confusion, and thank you for correcting me. The correct Old English word for sea fog is actually "sǣfog".

    me: That is closer, but still not right "sǣ" does indeed mean see, but "fog" is not an old English word. The old English for sea fog is "sǣmist"

    gpt: Thank you for the correction. You are right that "sǣmist" is the Old English word for sea fog. I apologize for any confusion caused by my earlier responses.

    fyrnweorc [ ᚠᚣᚱᚾᚹᛖᚩᚱᚳ ]: An ancient work, the creation -- Literal translation ancient-work or ancient-creation

    This means the building of all creation, the ancient magic that went into creating the world around us.

    Pre-Christian /#Pagan context: The magical building blocks that went into the creation. The ancient work in this context is all the definitions in one. The building of all things as well as the creation of a work of art. Magic comes from the left-over stuff from creation (maybe? just a theory)

    Christian: The creation of the world by God in Seven Days: Freá fyrnweorc (Lord of all creation)

    fyrn:former / ancient

    weorc: work ; in various senses ; including: labour, a creation / building / a work of art

    Pronunciation: files-thefolklore-cafe.ams3.di

    Example: he freá sceáwode fyrngeweorc [fyrnweorc]

    fyrnweorc [ ᚠᚣᚱᚾᚹᛖᚩᚱᚳ ]: An ancient work, the creation -- Literal translation ancient-work or ancient-creation

    This means the building of all creation, the ancient magic that went into creating the world around us.

    Pre-Christian /#Pagan context: The magical building blocks that went into the creation. The ancient work in this context is all the definitions in one. The building of all things as well as the creation of a work of art. Magic comes from the left-over stuff from creation (maybe? just a theory)

    Christian: The creation of the world by God in Seven Days: Freá fyrnweorc (Lord of all creation)

    fyrn:former / ancient

    weorc: work ; in various senses ; including: labour, a creation / building / a work of art

    Pronunciation: files-thefolklore-cafe.ams3.di

    Example: he freá sceáwode fyrngeweorc [fyrnweorc]

    Translation: the lord beheld the ancient work / the lord beheld all of creation
