Mother
Is this a dream or is it real
How can i tell which it may be?
O please let this be just a dream
For such a thing should not be seen
Is this what we have done?
Or is this the hell that awaits us
If we don’t cooperate
To save our mother from the greed
The greed from the plague
That is human kind
Like locusts we consume resources
Not listening to warnings she shows us
Storms, floods the ozone layer
Is there anyone left that even cares?
Won’t be long if we don’t change
That catastrophe will be apron us
Global warming, 
Pathogens,
Ecosystem collapse
Is it too late?
Our mother cannot sustain us

Our Earth, our mother, is suffering from the consequences of our actions, and if we do not act soon, the consequences will be catastrophic. Human greed has caused us to consume resources at a rate that is unsustainable, and we have not been attentive to the warnings our planet has been giving us. Climate change, ecosystem collapse, and the spread of pathogens are all symptoms of the damage we have done.

It is essential that we cooperate to save our planet. We must change our ways and act responsibly towards our environment. Simple actions, such as reducing our carbon footprint, minimizing waste, and conserving energy, can make a significant difference. We must educate ourselves and others on the importance of sustainability and the impact our actions have on the planet.

It is not too late to make a change, but time is running out. We must act now to prevent the catastrophe that awaits us. We have a responsibility to ensure that our planet can sustain us and future generations. It is time for us to listen to our planet and take action to save it.

Butterflies in Irish Folklore

  According to Irish folklore, butterflies are said to move between worlds and bring messages and warnings. They are said to be souls, waiting to be reborn on earth. This is perhaps why butterflies still play such a prominent role in material culture today, with a wide range of clothes, stationary, and other good coming decorated with butterflies. Butterflies with dark wings were said to warn of bad news such as an attack or failed crop, while white and yellow butterflies were told to bring good news such as a birth or success. In Irish mythology and folklore, butterflies have a special significance. According to Irish tradition, butterflies are believed to move between worlds and bring messages and warnings. They are considered to be souls waiting to be reborn on earth. This belief has contributed to the continued popularity of butterflies in modern-day material culture. Butterflies can be seen on a wide range of clothes, stationery, and other goods. Interestingly, the colour of t...

Celtic Goddess Flidais

By Patrick Conlan
 Flidais is a fascinating figure in Irish mythology, renowned for her many roles and abilities as a goddess. As a Mother Earth figure, she is associated with abundance and fertility, particularly through her strong connection to milk and milking. During the Cattle Raid of Cooley, her magical herd of cattle was able to provide milk for an entire army every seven days, a testament to her power. However, Flidais was much more than just an Earth Goddess. She was also a shape-shifter, a goddess of sexuality, and a healing goddess, making her a multifaceted and complex figure in Irish mythology. As part of the Tuatha Dé Danaan, she was believed to have originated from the pre-Christian deities of Ireland. Although the Tuatha Dé were eventually transformed into mortal queens, kings, and heroes in the medieval Ulster Cycles, Flidais remains a powerful and intriguing goddess figure, revered for her many abilities and associations. Overall, she is a testament to the richness and depth of Iri...

Ouija Board

By Patrick Conlan
  The exact origin of the Ouija board is unknown. Objects similar to the Ouija board date as far back as 551 Bce to Ancient China where spirit boards were commonplace items used to communicate with the dead. It is claimed that Pythagoras used talking boards to enhance his studies and unearth revelations from the unseen world. Talking boards also have connections to Ancient Rome where two people used the Ouija board to predict the successor to the king. They were tried for treason and eventually hung and the claimed successor was immediately executed. In February, 1891, the first advertisements started appearing in newspapers.
