They speak to an inner need for balance that we all feel from time to time. But even more important, they call to us to remember a time not so long ago when women were valued as equals to men, when the Great Mother Goddess took care of all Her children, and when the sacred touched every person every day of their lives. Come with me as we journey to the magical land of Minoan Crete, whose gods and goddesses are still very much alive today. We’ll meet the Minotaur, who isn’t really a monster at all, and discover his secret at the center of Ariadne’s Labyrinth. We’ll dance with Dionysus at the grape harvest and make our offerings to the Ancestors at their tombs. Most of all, we’ll discover how these ancient symbols and deities are still full of power today. They are so very vital to our modern Pagan lives at this important time in history, when we’re moving forward out of the days of inequality and oppression. Let’s make our journey hand-in-hand with the gods and goddesses of ancient Crete. Let’s bring them alive again and let them touch our hearts. As a fussy former English professor, and as a scholar/writer on Minoans for 40 years, I Highly Recommend “Labrys & Horns” for your hard-copy bookshelf. Cover to cover, Perry’s pages are careful, clear, down-to-earth practical and graceful too. Her solid, broad, detailed research is well- organized for learning (and then building on) what we know of Minoan Crete’s traditions from the ecological ground up, from herbs to instruments. While the book has generous features from 37 well-selected and precise line-drawings to a thorough subject-index, the sections build toward exemplary fusion of fact and fresh action. From “Basic Rituals” to “Daily Devotionals” and “Create It Yourself,” Perry’s multiple approaches to helping people real-ize the best of the ancient West truly capture its POETRY---and that’s to say they will inspire and unleash new energies as deep and positive as our real Minoan heritage. For all this, I go with 4 stars wanting more on a couple of questions. This was an intensely physical spirituality. Since blood-offerings were also part of Minoan traditions, what are the grounds/implications for leaving out those elements? If Minoan “horns of consecration” speak of Crete’s multiple horned deities and also of their ancestral families, do my own ancestors have a place in new Minoan ways? This may only mean, this book’s achievements and respect for Perrys Minoan writings spoiled me. All in all, “Labrys & Horns” is a well-honed instrument for bringing the facts and wildness, the depths, powers and wisdom of Minoan spirituality back to the forefront of Western education and living---on your own and in the fellowship of Nature and community.Knossos Calendar: Minoan Cycles of the Sun, the Moon, the Soul & Political Power Labrys and Horns: An Introduction to Modern Minoan Paganism in pdf books Labrys and Horns: An Introduction to Modern Minoan Paganism And to An Labrys Horns: Modern Paganism Introduction Minoan After bookstore clerk Angus flees following terrifying death threats, Adrien must contend with a mysterious Satanic cult, a hot and handsome university professor, and his on-againoff-again relationship with closeted LAPD Homicide Detective Jake Riordan.

Normally anything called a 'romance novel' sends me scurrying away but Susan Isaacs has created a narrative that is intriguing and suspenseful with characters that have depth. This entire series is wonderful. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be modern available for future generations Labrys enjoy. In the end, Atlanta's integration efforts were mostly cosmetic and usually undermined by institutional resistance from whites of all backgrounds and, ultimately, paganism flight.

  • Although Crete Seems to Have Been First Inhabited in the Palaeolithic (Strasser Et Al
    Although Crete seems to have been first inhabited in the Palaeolithic (Strasser et al. 2010), another colonization of the island occurred at the end of the Neolithic (Broodbank and Strasser 1991). From then, the internal chronology of Crete follows two systems, a ceramic development (Early, Middle, and Late Minoan with internal subdivisions) and a system based on architectural phases: Prepalatial (EM–MM IA, c.3000–1900 ), Protopalatial (MM IB–II, 1900–1750), Neopalatial (MM III–LM IB, 1750–1490), Final Palatial (LM II–IIIA:2/B1, 1490–1300), and Post Palatial (LM IIIB–C, 1300–1100). The last two periods comprise Mycenaean Crete. The Cretan “Hieroglyphic” and Linear A scripts were developed in the Protopalatial period (Godart and Olivier 1996; Younger 2005); Linear A survives into the Neopalatial period (Godart and Olivier 1976–1985; Younger 2000); and Linear B writes Greek in the Final Palatial period (Killen and Olivier 1989). There are three main ways of identifying females in Aegean art: costume, hairstyle (following age grades), and skin color in fresco. Females are always clothed (males may be nude) and women are often depicted in elaborate “court” dress (see below), textiles made of wool that were also exported to Egypt and the Near East.

  • APOLLO in ASIA MINOR and in the APOCALYPSE Abstract
    Title: CHAOS AND CLAIRVOYANCE: APOLLO IN ASIA MINOR AND IN THE APOCALYPSE Abstract: In the Apocalypse interpreters acknowledge several overt references to Apollo. Although one or two Apollo references have received consistent attention, no one has provided a sustained consideration of the references as a whole and why they are there. In fact, Apollo is more present across the Apocalypse than has been recognized. Typically, interpreters regard these overt instances as slights against the emperor. However, this view does not properly consider the Jewish/Christian perception of pagan gods as actual demons, Apollo’s role and prominence in the religion of Asia Minor, or the complexity of Apollo’s role in imperial propaganda and its influence where Greek religion was well-established. Using Critical Spatiality and Social Memory Theory, this study provides a more comprehensive religious interpretation of the presence of Apollo in the Apocalypse. I conclude that John progressively inverts popular religious and imperial conceptions of Apollo, portraying him as an agent of chaos and the Dragon. John strips Apollo of his positive associations, while assigning those to Christ. Additionally, John’s depiction of the god contributes to the invective against the Dragon and thus plays an important role to shape the social identity of the Christian audience away from the Dragon, the empire, and pagan religion and rather toward the one true God and the Lamb who conquers all.

Rocky islands, turquoise waters, and whitewashed buildings reduced to shimmering blocks of color by light and heat both concealed and revealed the energy of the old gods pulsing beneath everyday life. In the following years, returning to explore the ancient marbles and to study early Greek religion and ceremony dovetailed with my recognition of the archetypal mysteries in the psyches of modern women and men in analytic work. Figure 1 When I visited the National Archaeological Museum of Athens in 1995, a group of frescoes from the island of ancient Thera, now Santorini, captured my attention. One of these is the Spring Fresco, which shows a rocky landscape with blooming red lilies and swallows diving in a joyous expression of nature (Figure 1).

  • The Winding Path Leading to the Goal: the Evolution of the East European Labyrinth Poem
    ARTICLES TATIANA NAZARENKO (Winnipeg, MB, Canada) THE WINDING PATH LEADING TO THE GOAL: THE EVOLUTION OF THE EAST EUROPEAN LABYRINTH POEM Since antiquity, the image of the labyrinth, a mystical mazelike structure, has been continuously used in European literature, architecture, graphic arts, and garden design. The essential form and characteristics of the labyrinths are most likely derived from the plans of royal tombs and mortuary temples� in ancient Egypt2 dated as early as 3000 BC. The creation of the first European labyrinth modeled on the temple of Amenemhet III, king of Egypt of the 12th dynasty (reigned 1818-1770 BC),3 is credited to the Athenian architect and inventor Daedalus. He later constructed a maze for King Minos in the palace of Knossos in Crete4 in order to imprison the terrible Minotaur, a half bull and half man monster5 that feasted on human flesh. , * The author would like to express sincere gratitude to Jars Balan, V:ilen Barsky, Myroslav Korol and Mykola Soroka for permission to use their visual poems in my work, as well as to Mykola Soroka and Piotr Rypson for the permission to reproduce visuals from their monographs; the publishing houses Nauka (Russia), Naukova dumka (Ukraine), and Mystestvo (Ukraine) for their permission to reproduce illustrations published in their books, and to the Foksal Gallery Ar- chive (Poland) for permission to reproduce two compositions by Stanislaw Drozdz.

  • Definitions & Symbols (Pdf)
    Wheaton College Norton, Massachusetts DEFINITIONS LGBT: An acronym for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender. At times, a “Q” will be added for “Queer” and/or “Questioning”, an “A” for “Ally”, and/or a “TS” for “Two Spirit”. Ally: A person who supports and honors sexual diversity, acts accordingly to challenge homophobic and heterosexist remarks and behaviors, and is willing to explore and understand these forms of bias within him or herself. Bisexual: A person (male or female) who is physically, emotionally, psychologically, and/or spiritually attracted to both men and women or someone who identifies as a member of the bisexual community. Butch: Masculine dress or behavior, regardless of sex or gender identity. Closet: Used as slang for the state of not publicizing one’s sexual identity, keeping it private, living an outwardly heterosexual life while identifying as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender, or not being forthcoming about one’s identity. At times, being “in the closet” also means not wanting to admit one’s sexual identity to oneself. Coming Out: To disclose one’s own sexual identity or gender identity. It can mean telling others or it can refer to the time when a person comes out to him/herself by discovering or admitting that their sexual or gender identity is not what was previously assumed. Some people think of coming out as a larger system of oppression of LGBTQ people - that an LGBTQ person needs to come out at all shows that everyone is presumed heterosexual until demonstrated otherwise. But this word need not apply only to the LGBTQ community; in some situations, a heterosexual may feel the need to come out about their identity as well.

  • The Double Axe and Approaching the Question of Karian-Kretan Interaction
    Karia and Krete: a study in social and cultural interaction Naomi H Carless Unwin UCL DPhil History 1 I, Naomi H Carless Unwin, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 Abstract My thesis focuses on social and cultural interaction between Karia (in south western Anatolia) and Krete, over a long time span; from the Bronze Age to the Roman period. A persistent tradition existed in antiquity linking the Karians with Krete; this was mirrored in civic mythologies in Karia, as well as in cults and toponyms. My research aims to construct a new framework in which to read these traditions. The way in which a community ‘remembered’ its past was not an objective view of history; traditions were transmitted because they were considered to reflect something about a society. The persistence of a Kretan link within Karian mythologies and cults indicates that Krete was ‘good to think with’ even (or especially) during a period when Karia itself was undergoing changes (becoming, in a sense, both ‘de-Karianized’ and ‘Hellenized’). I focus on the late Classical and Hellenistic periods, from which most of our source material derives. The relevance of a shared past is considered in light of actual contacts between the two regions: diplomatic, economic, cultural and military. Against the prevailing orthodoxy, which maintains that traditions of earlier contacts, affinities and kinship between peoples from different parts of the Mediterranean were largely constructs of later periods, I take seriously the origins of such traditions and explore how the networks that linked Minoan Krete with Anatolia could have left a residuum in later conceptualisations of regional history.

  • Labrys) / Butterfly Symbols in an Offering Pit in Tisna
    Anadolu Araştırmaları Anatolian Research AnAr, 23, 71–89 DOI: 10.26650/anar.2020.23.703366 Research Article / Araştırma Makalesi About the Double-Axe (Labrys) / Butterfly Symbols in an Offering Pit in Tisna Tisna’da Bir Sunu Çukuru İçerisinde Bulunan Çift Ağızlı Balta (Labrys)/Kelebek Sembolleri Hakkında Emre Erdan1 , Barış Gür2 ABSTRACT In this study, double-axe/butterfly depictions in an offering pit discovered during the 2018 archaeological survey at Kocakale Tepe (Tisna) are introduced. The double- axe/ butterfly motifs with a total of 10 scraping lines in different sizes were identified in the pit formed on the bedrock made up of white colored tuff. While double-axes have been observed in the Aegean World since the Bronze Age, it is understood to be an important religious symbol. Since the Minoan culture in Crete, it has been used both as a votive object and a sacrifice axe, and is depicted on different religious objects in iconography. Later, it continued its same feature in the Mycenaean culture during the Late Bronze Age. After this intense use in the Aegean World during the Bronze Age, double axes began to appear in iconography again in the Classical period. Double-axes, which are the symbols of Zeus Labraundos, are depicted on the coins of the Hekatomnid dynasty in the Caria Region. According to Plutarch, the double-axe cult came to Caria from the lands of Lydia. It is not possible to make a sharp comment about the Kocakale Tepe offering pit without any excavation in the area and its vicinity. However, it is noteworthy that the stepped monument in Kocakale Tepe, a possible Acropolis Sanctuary in Sarıkale Tepe, and the open-air sanctuary in Karahayıt may be related to the Mother Goddess cult in Tisna.
