It’s May 6th, St. George’s Day…so I’d be remiss if I didn’t post the appropriate musical anthem to the day as well as to Spring. Ederlezi is a well known and loved song in much of Southern Europe, and has been translated from the original #Romani into Serbo-Croatian, Polish, Romanian and Greek. Goran Bregovich’s version with full Gypsy brass band is a much-loved version, but I rather prefer this ‘softer’ version. #Roma #StGeorge #Spring #EthnoMusicology #music https://youtu.be/Agihddf35js?si=5nWg1eINWO7apHji

23rd April, Patron Saint St. George. (With any luck we might even be able to fly his flag without being arrested.)

April 23ʳᵈ, celebrating the traditional anniversary of the birth of William Shakespeare and the feast day of St George — here seen killing a rather watery dragon in Barcelona — whom I have always liked for his cosmopolitan interests.

Wasn't there last night, but love the #shows #StGeorge's #GreatYarmouth put on.Saw #VoodooRoom, could so easily have been called White Chile, a few weeks back. As the advertising said:
‘NOT a dress up, wig wearing, look-alike tribute band – JUST GREAT MUSICIANS PLAYING GREAT MUSIC – STUNNING!’ Time Out.
I concur! Definitely not #notefornote record #copyists either, but guys who played the material their way. Wonderfully approachable people too, who mixed with the #audienceBuildingForCreators in the interval. Really enjoyed my chat with the bass player.
Dare I confess to attending the pantomime St George's put on in January, too! One of the best I've witnessed since those I used to go to in #Kenilworth
in the early 2010s. -

Spirituality & Religious Studies @spiritualityreligiousstudies.wordpress.com@spiritualityreligiousstudies.wordpress.com ·Perun
In Slavic mythology, Perun is the highest god of the pantheon & the god of the sky, thunder, lightning, storms, rain, law, war, fertility, & oak trees. His other attributes were fire, mountains, wind, iris (the flower), eagle, firmament, horses & carts, & weapons (hammer, axe (Axe of Perun), & arrow).
The supreme god in the Kievan Rus’ during the 9th-10th centuries, Perun was first associated with weapons made of stone & later with those of metal. The Kievan Ris’ (a.k.a. Kyivan Rus’) was the 1st East Slavic state & later an amalgam of principalities in Eastern Europe from the late 9th to the mid-13th century. It encompasses a variety of peoples, including East Slavic, Norse, & Finnic.
The Primary Chronicle relates that in the year 6415 (907 AD) Prince Oleg (Old Norse: Helgi) made a peace treaty with the Byzantine Empire & by taking his men to the shrines & swearing by their weapons & by their God Perun, & by Volos, the God of cattle, they confirmed the treaty.
In 980, when Prince Vladimir the Great came to the throne of Kiev, he erected statues of 5 pagan gods in front of his palace which he soon thereafter discarded after his Christianization in 988.
Perun was chief among them, represented with a silver head & a gold moustache. Vladimir’s uncle, Dobrynya, also had a shrine of Perun established in his city of Novgorod. After the Christianization of Kievan Rus’ this place became a monastery, which continued to bear the name of Perun.
Perun was worshipped by the Varangian (Scandinavian) warriors hired by Oleg & Igor during the campaigns against Byzantium. In the treaty of 971, the Varangians reenforce with the Slavic deity, Veles.
When the arrival of Christianity, the old gods fared poorly amongst the Slavs. Grand prince Vladimir the Great, who had once been a very vocal & lavish patron of Perun, converted to Christianity.
In 988, the prince & his family & people of the Kievan Rus’ were collectively baptized. He ordered that the statues of Perun which he himself had erected formerly, be dethroned, torn down with great dishonor & dragged through the streets as they were beaten with sticks. The idols were then cast into rivers & not permitted to land on the shore. 3 of Vladimir’s sons are also recognized as saints.
In neopaganism interpretation, the struggle of St. George with the serpent is understood as the struggle of Perun with Veles, who stole cows from him.
According to the book Dezionization by Valery Yemelyanov, 1 of the founders of the Russian neopaganism, in the ideas of the “Veneti” (“Aryans”), there was a “trinity of three triune trinites”: Prav-Yav-Nav, Svarog-Perun-Svetovid, Soul-Flesh-Power.
In some currents, Perun may be the supreme patron god. Since 1992, the 1st neopagan Kupchinsky Temple of Perun has been in St. Petersburg.

So, you shoot a high-profile public figure with a rifle. Meanwhile, you jump around in front of public cameras unmasked, with your smartphone in your pocket. You drop the rifle close to the shooting in a bush. You write about it on Discord.
You really care about the rifle, because you think it is a "unique" rifle, so you want to have it back and you expect a friend via Discord to pick it up for you.
Oh boy, you really are hell of a smart, clever and very reasonable guy. 👏 👏 👏 🤦
