The Iconic Needles

One of the most iconic places to visit on the Isle of Wight is, without a doubt, the famous Needles and the coloured sand of Alum Bay. Located on the South Western tip of the island, the Needles Rocks and Trinity Lighthouse are the Isle of Wight’s most iconic landmark. Since Victorian times, visitors have flocked to the bay to marvel at the coloured rocks and take samples home in glass…

Is ra eL

The name “Rael” is a derivative of “Israel” which means “People of God”, by God’s own definition. That is why the Israelites are know as the people of God.

Is Ra El” - ISIS/RA/ELOHIM … (ISIS) the Divine Feminine (Mother), (RA) the Divine Masculine (Father), and (EL) the Spirit or God. To clarify these three elements together, the whole or HOLY trinity

Israel is not necessarily a place, it is is a body of people, God’s chosen placed here upon this earth, as the body of Christ, the temple, the holy land.

Where I am God is, where I am goddess

The same reason that they used the stars to track the Sun/Son - is the same reason they use tech to track and trace you- God placed the stars in the sky so perfectly.

We are the sacred geometry, in our birth chart, blood type and more holds sacred codes as to who we are, what we came to do and exactly who we came to be.

The body of Christ, God’s prophets were purposely placed all across this landmass we refer to as planet Earth - as lighthouses,sleeping Giants in the spiritual realm, awakening one by one, lighting and reigniting and eternal flame.

This is why the body of Christ often faces so many trials and tribulations.

Because it is known by the oppositional energy that once we remember who we are,there is no going back and we hold the power to change the trajectory of all that is unfolding.

Everything that we see happening right now is an exodus and we are guiding the children of The Most High back to their rightful place. None above the other, but there are hierarchies of angels, each with their own divine assignment to carry out as per their individual soul contract.

Everyone is playing their role perfectly, and everything is Divinely orchestrated to ensure that God’s will be done on Earth As It Is in Heaven.

South Stack Lighthouse

Today's adventure took us to the South Stack Lighthouse, on the north-westerly tip of Holy Island, Anglesey. The lighthouse was built in 1809 by Trinity House, and towers some 300ft over the water below. That doesn't mean winter storm surges don't reach it - there are photos of waves exploding high above the lighthouse in the past.

Thankfully today the sea was flat calm, and the sun shining.

Our visit began with a comedy of errors, after parking in the more distant of two car parks. A pay and display car-park, with instructions to either use coins (which we didn't have), or use an app, a website, or phone an automated service. Easily done if you have a phone signal.

After setting out on foot - hoping there would be a way of registering our car at the visitor center, we realised there was a second car-park at the visitor center - complete with a ticket machine that took card transactions. We made our way back to the car, and carried on to the much-more-better car-park.

After finally parking and buying tickets to the lighthouse, we started out down the several hundred steps that zig-zag their way down the cliffs - edging closer to the buildings and towers that were once populated by several families.

It has to be said - the team of volunteers guiding visitors around the lighthouse complex were exceptional - full of stories, anecdotes, and a mine of information.

They told one particularly harrowing story about the "Royal Charter" - a ship making the voyage from Melbourne, Australia to Liverpool - which came to grief just after passing South Stack - wrecking on the north-eastern coast of Anglesey in 1859. It is estimated that 450 people died. The coast of the United Kingdom is littered with hundreds of ship-wrecks - hundreds. The wrecks were half the reason the lighthouses were built in the first place. In the case of the Royal Charter, the coast-guard advised the ship to shelter at Holyhead, but it carried on - with fateful results.

133 ships sank during the "Royal Charter" storm.

While wandering around the South Stacks lighthouse, we passed several seagulls tending nests with eggs, and saw thousands upon thousands of guillimots, puffins and cormorants lined up along the cliffs, rocks, and headlands nearby.

Before we knew it our tour was over, and we faced the climb back up the cliffs. While chatting with the guides the rest of our cohort raced off ahead - I wondered if we might catch them back up during the climb. We did.

After completing the climb we walked a little further around the headland and found a quiet spot out of the wind to eat sandwiches we had taken with us. Afterwards the tea-shop whispered to us and we succumbed to ginger beer and flapjacks.

We're back at the cottage now - thinking about a slow stroll to the nearby beach, and a drink at the pub. We'll see.

Devil’s minion Armand loved blade runner and time bandits, but do you think there’s any newer movies or just ones he found out about later that he took a liking too? And of course i have to bring Daniel into this so what are some of your movie hcs for him?

Oh man, I think Armand is someone who will watch just about anything, but specifically-

-Weird A24 movies, the more psychological and shocking the better. He's 500 years old so he's got a high bar for being surprised, and I think stuff like the Lighthouse would really grab him. It's weird, it's homoerotic, it has undertones of greek mythology he can explain at Daniel. He's into it.

-All those period pieces that came out in the 90s/early 2000s. Daniel finds watching them with him insufferable because Armand sits there and picks at the inaccuracies ("Paris was hardly ever so clean, and no one wore snow white wigs in such a fashion-" "Yeah, yeah, I get it, the costumes suck, we've been over this a thousand fucking times"). But his nitpicking is just a cover to keep it from being obvious that even he is weak for a good Mr. Darcy declaration of love.

-He loves a modern retelling of a classic. Baz Lurhmann's Romeo + Juliet? He was obsessed, seeing Shakespeare molded into something which a modern audience could identify with thrilled him. 10 Things I Hate About You? Daniel spent hours listening to how it was a retelling of Taming of the Shrew. Clueless? "Daniel, did you realize this is based on a Jane Austen novel which was quite popular when it debuted-" "Armand there's literally a thousand articles on the internet pointing that out."

(Lestat joins them on modern Shakespeare nights, much to their mutual delight, and commentates through the entire film)

-He's still a sci-fi fan, he likes things that explore technology humans have yet to develop. He spent time watching Star Trek with Daniel in the 70s and got tickets to the premiere of Star Trek Beyond for him and Daniel in 2016.

-Both of them are Cronenberg weirdos, it's just facts. Videodrome? Crash? The Brood? Dead Ringers? They're into his psychosexual weirdness.

-Daniel specifically enjoys film adaptations of books, for better or worse. Kubrick's The Shining he had mixed feelings on (they changed the ending!!), Lord of the Rings he read as a child and he loved the film version. The Hobbit? Hated. Too much CGI, his vampire senses make CGI so obvious and he'll always prefer a film with practical effects. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas? Solid, very fun.

-The sap in Daniel likes movies where the protagonist falls for the monster. The Shape of Water? Edward Scissorhands? He can relate.

-Daniel also has a secret thing for watching vampire movies, the worse the better. He and Lestat had an excellent night in which they drank off some very inebriated club goers, put Twilight on at Trinity Gate and spent the night howling at vampires that sparkle in the sun.

-Pretty much he's in the same stuff as Armand, but Armand has a stronger stomach for horror than him. Put on a Junji Ito movie or something gratuitously painful like Saw and Daniel is tapping out, sorry.

(if anyone else has specific films, feel free to reblog and add them on!)

top 5 places to spend an afternoon?

1. One of my favourite things to do is watch a film at the BFI Southbank and then sit outside at their bar, people watching/reading, followed by a peruse of the book market and a wander along the Thames. I should do this more often!

2. St Dunstan in the East, which is a ruined church near the tower of London that was turned into a garden. Only the outer walls remain and it’s just a very peaceful lovely place to have a sit and watch the world go by.

3. I didn’t just want to say ‘at the pub’ lol. But Gordon’s Wine Bar would definitely be on the list. It’s 100+ years old and when you sit in the underground cave bit you can feel the rumble of the tube and I just love the candlelight and intimacy and it feels like it hasn’t changed in a century. Plus, wine.

4. Brighton. Wandering around the Lanes looking in all the antique shops, stopping off for a pint, walking along the beach and then early dinner at Bincho Yakitori, which is one of my favourite restaurants ever. I'm actually doing exactly this one day next week.

5. Trinity Buoy Wharf, out in the Docklands. It has London’s only lighthouse! And there’s lots of weird and interesting art installations.

Day 2193, 24 June 2024

Today is amazingly An Every Day Thing’s sixth birthday. Thank you to everyone who has commented upon, re-blogged, liked or even looked at any of the daily photos on this blog. Admittedly, over the last 12 months or so, I have become somewhat disillusioned with photography both as an artform and even as a simple mechanism to record a moment. This is because there is so much fake and artificially created “photography” these days. Whilst I get the argument about artificially created photographs “being just another form of art, grandad”, personally I would prefer to get out to seek photographs rather than sit in front of a computer screen and create them. Therefore in an attempt to regenerate my love for photography and to keep it “real”, I have decide to experiment going forwards by adding comments to my daily photographs. The comments may be as short as a title or a bit about the background to the photograph. In keeping with my original aim, this blog remains “focused” on the image and is not intended to be autobiographical. I therefore intend to keep the comments more observational rather than self-promotional. And so to the first comment! I wanted something a little unusual for my first comment and so took a quick lunchtime trip to Trinity Buoy Wharf in East London. The photograph is of a lightship moored there which is now a recording studio. The is also a lighthouse at Trinity Buoy Wharf which can be seen here on my blog Sometimes London. Yes both the lightship and lighthouse are real and not artificial creations!

Made a post on Reddit of tlt theories I have, here's it:

But here it is under a read more so you don't have to suffer. I'd really love to hear everyone's thoughts!

Ianthe, Lychtorhood(s), the Tower, the Trinity, Ba & Ka, Vriska

Inb4; I'm an audiobook listener so my spellings are probably not right

[ Not Vriska ]

I'm a broken record when it comes to finding all of the little homestuck things in the locked tomb, and Ianthe seems ofc Very Serket-y. So my unironic but absolutely crack theory is that she's going to end up having a hand in bringing the story to its climax but in a way that could be considered either heroic or aligning with the protagonist, even if that's not the spirit of what she's doing. "Protagonist" being Alecto over all, not Harrow, not Gideon.

[ Motivation ]

I genuinely think Ianthe wants knowledge and power But not because she wants to be God to everyone, I think she wants to be God to herself (and of course however that plays into her enmeshment with Corona), looking back on how she always had to play second fiddle to Corona ineveryone's eyes, she was a puppet master further puppeted by her parents who obviously gave her a lot of issues. I genuinely believe she hates herself, and just looking for anything to fill that void.

[ Tower ]

I haven't read very many other theories on the Tower, But because the afterlife we've seen is referred to as the river, I believe it is a lighthouse allegory, meant to guide all of the souls who have been lost, straying, and absolutely ravenous. "Jewel or gleam of a smile" gives me very "beam of light" energy, I believe Ianthe will have some kind of end as a ferryman or harbinger, becuase John never was - he was just vindictive as a god.

[Types of Lychtor]

💙1) Swaparoo; John and Alecto - the switched souls or essences, something that traded their eyes but let them both live.

💙2) Headmates; Pyrrah and Gideon - two souls living in one body, independent of each other but the eaten soul isn't actually devoured, Pyrrah still having agency for example. I believe this is what Anastasia and Samael may have ended in, if John hadn't killed him.

💙4) Fusion; Paul - When Camilla and Palamedes achieved lychtorhood, it seems like they've fused into and have become a new being, like their souls are blended into a new one, which is parts of them both, yet is still new being.

💙3) Cannibal; Mercymorn and Christabelb- And the other cases of lychtors we've seen for the most part it seems like the soul has been completely devoured, or like the personality of the cavalier is gone, all there is, is autopilot and a battery.

[ The Trinity - what is it? ]

BUT if the perfect Lychtorhood trinity is actually 3 souls, here are my guesses for endgame trinity:

Upon my reread of Nona I realized Anastasia had mentioned a trinity, and I don't think it's just in a Christian Context. A possible reading of what the Trinity is - Adept, Cavalier, and the whole of what they make. The new entity is the 3rd thing, Lychtor type 4.

Ianthe, Babs, Corona

Alecto, Harrow, Gideon

John (father), Gideon (son), Alecto (holy spirit).

Alecto (father), the 10 billion souls (son), the tower/river (holy spirit)

Ianthe, for those last combos, I'd consider a Judas or Longinus allusion. I think her final defining act will be one of mercy, that will leave everyone in... awe ;)

[ Connective tissue ]

💙 Permission; "There is only one rule. Don't go into any locked room without permission. Wink." This quote from teacher in Gideon has been making my brain itch, and I really feel like it has something to do with the tomb itself, the tower, the river, the stoma.

💙 Eyes; are the window to the soul. The way to a man's heart is through his stomach. I believe the stoma at the bottom of the river isn't just a gateway, and isn't just full of teeth because it's creepy and necromantic. I think the entire river is a living being, that the entire universe in this series is a consciousness all of its own, and that entropy is only being expedited by John, whether he realizes it or not. I believe the river is one big revenant waiting to happen.

💙 Iceberg; Alecto is the Earth, but not the 10 billion souls. John is very much like Harrowhark, in that he is made up of so many more than just his own soul. I don't believe he devoured human kinds souls, I believe they're the mindless restless dead in the river that are so hungry and searching for closure.

💙 Tarot; The tower card often means unforeseen change and dangerous circumstances etc, though in reverse it means illness, loss, etc. I'm choosing to see the river as a reflection of sorts, so I believe the tower is a place of mourning, not the dangerous and ominous thing it seems to be. I genuinely feel like there used to be beings in the river who would help guide souls along.

💙 Ba & Ka; everyone here is extremely well read so I'll let you look up this Kemetic belief and jump into it curtly: I believe when a necromancer devours their cavalier, the eye color switches because the KA (essence) is what is switched with adept and cavalier. I believe this is why even though Gideon dies, Pyrrah still has his eye color rather than hers remaining. Her essence is what has been made part of their soul.

I believe the Ba is what joins the river even when a Cavalier is made into a battery, but that the KA stays. I believe that is what would explain things like only certain body parts or bisected spirits in the river, because why would it dead thing see itself as only part of its whole? Because it's whole isn't there.

Now the BA, personality and individuality, is what gets destroyed in type 2, but blended in type 4. Think Paul's eyes blending color.

[ In conclusion ]

(I'm talking about a lot of complex things that I only have cursory knowledge of, apologies if I get anything wrong thusly dismantling this entire red string maze.)

I still firmly believe that the Trinity is it's two parts plus the whole it makes, and I believe Babs will be rejected or expunged based on what was said in Nona. I don't think his entire Ba has been corroded down to just his Ka yet, so he still may be able to be saved.

This would leave and Ianthe and Corona. BUT I believe Ianthe will have to reconcile her own parts to become a whole person, and become a mini Trinity before even thinking about a perfect Lychtorhood - But she gives a love that is toxic and codependent, I could really see her going between eating Corona, or simply denying her again because she is the one person she can't live without, despite everything.

That, and Corona being Judith's Cavalier in spirit, I'm not sure where her final loyalties will lie. I think her rejection of Ianthe is what will drive Ianthe to do the ""right"" thing. She's always been into people who don't want her and Ianthe had already rejected her once, I don't know if she will get a second chance to reject her.

Beachy Head Cliff & Lighthouse

Beachy Head is a chalk headland in East Sussex, England. It is situated close to Eastbourne. Beachy Head is located within the administrative area of Eastbourne Borough Council which owns the land, forming part of the Eastbourne Downland Estate. The cliff is the highest chalk sea cliff in Britain, rising to 162 m (531 ft) above sea level. The peak allows views of the south east coast towards Dungeness in the east, and to the Isle of Wight in the west.

Beachy Head Lighthouse is a lighthouse located in the English Channel below the cliffs of Beachy Head in East Sussex. It is 33 m (108 ft) in height and became operational in October 1902. It was the last traditional-style 'rock tower' (i.e. offshore lighthouse) to be built by Trinity House.

6, 8, 22, 48? Please and thank you!

6. What's the last line you wrote?

Elizabeth only has a moment to consider — the crew jostles her into the captain’s quarters as the Pearl departs from Port Royal.

8. Post an out-of-context spoiler from a wip.

A snarling dragon lands on the mast above, its slender form slithering about the yardarm like a snake. The lanterns are dimmed on deck, and there is no moonlight. Elizabeth can only just see its blue-black scales, streaked with white, and ominous round eyes that shine like the lenses of a lighthouse as they gaze down upon her.

(...not hard to guess what this is about given the previous answer but this felt fitting)

22. Do you title your fics before, during, or after the writing process?  How do you come up with titles?

brother i desperately wish i had a consistent answer for this. sometimes it's the first thing i think of, otherwise i am sitting staring at the ao3 page wondering what words are and how i can use them to convey thoughts and ideas :—)

generally titles are some reference or quote (or poetry, in the case of everything i've ever written vaguely inspired by mythology), or otherwise some vague title about the themes. i don't even know how to explain it which should tell you something about my process (or lack thereof) lmao

48. Who is your favorite character to write for?  Has this changed since you’ve started writing for that fandom?

i feel like jimmy n is the obvious answer here — his neuroses are so fun and i delight in both giving him everything he could possibly want and ruining his life over and over. but i have come around to lord cutler beckett, who is such a challenge to write but so so fascinating.

...and i have to complete my dark-haired tricorn meow meow trinity with a shoutout for mr. haytham assassinscreed, who falls somewhere between the other two and sucks in his own, specific right.

send me fic asks!
