User ID: 76358436 United States12/13/2018 09:49 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Cool video. I like the beat also. I didn't see any druids though. "Back from the dead bitch with a swarm of locusts." ~ My Psychosis "Debts must be collected, bonds and mortgages must be foreclosed as rapidly as possible. When, through a process of law, the common people lose their homes they will become more docile and more easily governed through the influence of the strong arm of government, applied by a central power of wealth under control of leading financiers. This truth is well known among our principal men now engaged in forming an imperialism of Capital to govern the world. By dividing the voters through the political party system, we can get them to expend their energies in fighting over questions of no importance. Thus by discreet action we can secure for ourselves what has been so well planned and so successfully accomplished." ~ US Banker's Magazine, August 25 1924 |

We're not supposed to do lyrics in here cuz that's a copyright issue, so I'll refer to just one line: the song speaks of the babe being born and laid in the manger and .... ~snipped "The which His Mother Mary did nothing take in scorn" As a child I thought that was referring to 'the witch', but it's not, its an old-fashioned victorian use of the word which, referring to the events taking place in the song. I think the video with its victorian, medieval and pagan scenes, does lend itself to listeners hearing the word 'witch'.  Among a whole lot of other things in the vid. lol |

User ID: 77137559 United States12/14/2018 07:15 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | That is amazing! I love it! I think the big hairy figure towards the end is the Grampus. Quoting: Queen of Swords he looked like the GREEN MAN to me, at least his face. his hands were frightening. he was made of sticks and moss and natural things. i really liked it OP. thank you for posting it. ill definitely be watching it again. some christmas songs are just astoundingly beautiful. it boggles my mind. theres some kind of magic in them.

Quoting: Who is Blue Fairy BTW you have to get past the first 33 seconds of it till the real stuff shows up. I didn’t see a witch. I thought the video was awesome! I think she was trying to make it “old” like. Definitely has a pagan feel to it especially near the end with the giant with deer antlers. Good job as usual with Lennox. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Forget the red or the blue pill.

Mistletoe is really dangerous to consume, but it is quite relaxing when prepared properly. In europe, Mistletoe extracts are among the most prescribed drugs for patients with cancer [link to www.cancer.gov (secure)] Gentian is another plant which was promoted by a similar campaign. |

User ID: 75335220 United States12/15/2018 08:33 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | That is a cool video and song. I often think of these two videos as well when I get that druid vibe: Quoting: AstroBuzz The Mummers' Dance - Loreena McKennitt [link to youtu.be (secure)] I love Lorena. Deep Forest is some good stuff too. When I played D&D when I was younger I was always a druid. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Forget the red or the blue pill.

User ID: 74461487 United States12/16/2018 01:35 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The figure at the end is clearly the Holly King. Sometimes in pagan ritual the Holly King is Burnt. At Yule, the Oak King wins, as the days will start to grow longer under the oak Kings rule. So the Holly King has his last big shindig on Yule. It's pretty clear by the Holly around his face. That is a Celtic tradition and would fit with the very English themes in this video. Krampus was of a Northern European tradition, and this is missing big horns so I don't think there's any way it could be Krampus. To me it's clearly the Holly King. I'm pagan oh, that's the Holly King. (Some people consider the Holly King and the Oak King as dual aspects of the horned one of the forest, shown with deer antlers. It has nothing to do with Satan's horns or any of that it's more like the wild free one/ he who provides.) Last Edited by Hadriana on 12/16/2018 01:38 AM |
