Short-toed Snake-Eagle (Circaetus gallicus)

Split, Croatia - 6/30/2024

Apologies for blurry quality; focusing on the bird was unbearable with my little point and shoot digital camera. Just getting this picture was a miracle, though the eagle did me the excellent favor of hovering in place for half an hour so I had multiple chances!

I'm pretty solid on the idea that "Cernunnos"/Karnonos is the Dis Pater that Caesar described. The iconography makes a lot of sense, especially the lesser known iconography (pretty much everything is based on the Gundestrup Cauldron at this point, with minor Pillar of the Boatmen sprinkled in)

I very much reject the idea that he's some kind of bi-directional mediator; I've never felt him that way and imo, the iconography points overwhelmingly to a chthonic deity. This is based on my own research where I decided to investigate for myself rather than take everyone's word for it. It is a good and solid opinion, but not one that I personally agree with.

Anyways, I'm calling him Dis Pater Gallicus or, "Dis Pater from Gaul". He is a deity of chthonic richness, both mineral and agricultural, as well as chthonic fertility (as in the soil), wealth, and with some connection to the Gaulish cult of the dead.

I want to emphasize that the Celtic Otherworld is not a dreary place but more of a landscape, and the "dead" are ancestors inhabiting this place, so any connection to "the dead" isn't in a gloomy sense as it would be in a Greco-Roman context. Liminal places were seen as passages TO the Otherworld but not as being characteristic of the ENTIRE Otherworld.

The Gauls believed in the immortality of the soul. So much so that people would use the opportunity of a funeral to burn/bury letters so that they would reach their deceased loved ones, and debts continued into the afterlife with the idea that it would continue to be paid once both parties made their way there. There's an anecdote of a man throwing coins into a hole to pay off someone he owed a debt to in the Otherworld.

Isaac Jogues (1607-1646) in Gallia notus factus est, cum elapsus e servitute apud Mohawks in Canada, manibus male a tormentis laceratis, rediit. Quamvis passus, ad missiones rediit, ubi tandem martyrium consummavit. Jogues Orleans in Gallia natus est die 10 mensis Ianuarii anno 1607 et Iesuitas Rothomago ingressus cum XVII annos natus esset. Duobus mensibus, postquam primam Missam celebravit die 10 februarii 1636, iter ad missionem Iesuita in Nova Gallia venit. Magnam laetitiam matrem suam scripsit cum in Quebec appulisset et Americanos indigenas in litore exspectans vidit. Post mensem tantum et dimidium, prima sua legatione ad Hurones profectus est, pergens ad DCCCC milia passuum per aquam ad Ihonatiriam. Factio XIX dies confecta est paxillum et naves scapharum circa impedimenta portans. In navigatione, Hurones Jogues nomen "Onde_ssonk" ("inquisitionis legatum" dederunt).

Jogues hero suo occurrit, pater Ioannes de Brébeuf in Ihonatiria, et linguam Huron discere coepit. Prima quaestio orta est cum variola pestilentia in compositione orta est et homines missionarios reprehenderunt quod morbum afferebant. Cum pestilentia transacta est, relicta est compositio, et Jogues primum Teanaustayé ac deinde ad Sainte-Marie se contulit, inceptum valente ubi praedicatores homines docuerunt terram colere et armenta, sues et volucrem nutrire. Coetus Chippewas, qui ad Sainte-Mariam venerat, prosperos eventus admiratus est et Iesuitas invitavit ut inter eos missionem constitueret. Eos Jogues mense Septembri 1641 visitavit, eosque de Deo audiendi studiosos invenit, sed paucitas Jesuitarum effecit ut novis tribubus tunc temporis cresceret.

Hieme et vere 1642, Jogues neophytos apud Sainte-Marie ad baptismum in Sabbato sancto praeparavit; unus ex 120 adultis conversis Ahtsistari erat, tribus maximi belli dux. Licet missionarius Gallicus contente sentiret christianam ineuntem radicem agere, voluit totam Huron gentem convertere et se obtulit in oratione ut sacrificium quod eveniret.

Isaac Jogues (1607-1646) het in Frankryk bekend geword toe hy uit slawerny onder die Mohawks in Kanada ontsnap het en teruggekeer het met sy hande erg deur kanonne geskeur. Ten spyte van lyding het hy teruggekeer na die sendings, waar hy uiteindelik sy martelaarskap voltooi het. Jogues Orleans is op 10 Januarie 1607 in Frankryk gebore en het die Jesuïete Orde van Rothomago betree toe hy 17 jaar oud was. Twee maande nadat hy sy eerste Mis op 10 Februarie 1636 gevier het, het hy na die Jesuïete-sending in Nieu-Gallië gereis. Hy het geskryf van sy ma se groot vreugde toe hy in Quebec geland het en die inheemse Amerikaners op die strand sien wag het. Na slegs 'n maand en 'n half het hy op sy eerste sending na die Hurons vertrek en 700 myl per water na Ihonatiria voortgesit. Die partytjie het 19 dae deurgebring met die pen en die bote wat die bagasie rondgedra het. Tydens die vaart het die Hurons die Jogues die naam "Onde_ssonk" ("nalatenskap van die soektog") gegee.

Jogues het sy held, Vader John de Brébeuf in Ihonatiria ontmoet en die Huron-taal begin leer. Die eerste probleem het ontstaan ​​toe 'n pokke-epidemie in die nedersetting uitgebreek het en mense die sendelinge die skuld gegee het dat hulle die siekte gebring het. Toe die pes verby was, is die nedersetting laat vaar, en die Jogues het eers na Teanaustayé en toe na Sainte-Marie getrek, 'n kragtige onderneming waar die predikers die mense geleer het om die grond te bewerk en om beeste, varke en voëls te voer. 'n Groep Chippewas wat na Sainte-Maria gekom het, was verras deur die suksesvolle resultate en het die Jesuïete genooi om 'n sending onder hulle te vestig. Jogues het hulle in September 1641 besoek en gevind dat hulle gretig was om van God te hoor, maar die klein aantal Jesuïete het in daardie tyd nuwe stamme laat groei.

In die winter en lente van 1642 het Jogues die neofiete by Sainte-Marie voorberei vir doop op Heilige Saterdag; Een van die 120 volwasse bekeerlinge was Ahtsistar, die stam se grootste oorlogsleier. Alhoewel die Franse sendeling tevrede gevoel het om in die Christendom wortel te skiet, wou hy die hele Huron-nasie bekeer en het homself in gebed aangebied as 'n offer wat sou gebeur.

Beach of the Cathedrals, Spain (No. 1)

The Cantabrian Sea is the coastal sea of the Atlantic Ocean that bathes most of the northern coast of Spain and the southwestern end of the Atlantic coast of France; is the southern part of the Bay of Biscay. Traditionally it has been considered to extend from Cape Ortegal (43°46′N 7°52′W), in the province of A Coruña, to the mouth of the river Adur, near the city of Bayonne, on the coast of the department of Pyrénées-Atlantiques, in the French Basque Country.​ It bathes 800 kilometers of coastline shared by the provinces of La Coruña and Lugo (Galicia), Asturias, Cantabria, Vizcaya and Guipúzcoa (Basque Country), and the French department of Pyrénées-Atlantiques.

The Cantabrian Sea was baptized by the Romans in the first century BC as Cantabricus Oceanus in reference to one of the peoples that populated its coasts: the Cantabrians. In other older classical quotations it appears under the name Britannicus Oceanus and Gallicus Oceanus.​

If you want to make Gaul the Gallic Dis Pater or Underfather, it would be something like

Dubnotir/ter

Dumnotir/ter

Andernotir/ter

I'm super rusty on my Gaulish and I never learned cases and declensions to begin with, but this is a start, at least

Or you could just say Dis Pater Gallia/Gallicus and call it a day, whatever works for you!

watercolor, pen and marker

wouldn't it be cool if bugs made magazines? i was inspired by the super cool fake magazine covers people make of their characters sometimes (im looking at you, ratmags).

this was made for a set of art pieces with the theme: "how can bugs be depicted in a way in which people can sympathize with them without me having to alter their appearances/make them look 'cuter'?"

i focused a lot on posing, framing and settings to try to pull this off, which turned out to be pretty challenging! here, specifically, i chose to depict bugs in a media people are used to seeing humans in to make them more relateable.

other pieces in this collection coming soon

Isaac Jagues Mense Septembri Hurons rogaverunt a Iesuita missionarium ut eos in legatione ad Mohawks comitarentur, qui priores hostes ad singula foederis componenda invitaverant. Jogues alium laicum adiutorem sibi assumpsit, Ioannem de La Lande, virum peritum nemus, qui in Nova Gallia consederat, priusquam Iesuitis auxilium praeberet. Parva factio Quebecum discessit 24 sept. Solus unus Huron offerebat se cum Jogues et La Lande pergere. Interim Mohawks in Ossernenon segetem defectum et pestilentiam passi sunt, reprehendentes in cista vestimentorum et librorum, quos Iesuita post se reliquerat, cum legatus Gallicus eos visitabat. Milites quidam Francum ad occidendum quaerentes profecti delectati sunt cum die 17 mensis Octobris Ioguem et duos eius comites ceperunt
