Ye Lyttle Salem Maide A Story Of Witchcraft

Book: Ye Lyttle Salem Maide A Story Of Witchcraft by Pauline Bradford Mackie Hopkins

Ye Lyttle Salem maide, a story of witchcraft (1898), a novel by Pauline Bradford Mackie (1873-?), Lamson, Wolffe and Co., Boston, 1898.

PAULINE BRADFORD MACKIE has distinguished herself as a writer of historical fiction, and for this her work is worthy of close consideration. The work of Pauline Bradfo d Mackie does not exhibit the early influences of her literary career as do the creations of some other authors who have passed through a similar period of apprenticeship. For two years after graduation from the Toledo High School, she was engaged in writing for the Toledo Blade, but perhaps with not sufficient seriousness, for, at the time, she was anxious to become an artist, and was almost as busy with the brush and pencil as with the pen.

Perhaps no embryo writer of romance, who eventually has made a rep t tation of worth, had more trying experie ces than fell to her when first she essaye the task of authorship. The old Peterson Magazine published two of her early ven ures, but never paid for them, and the firs story for which she was ever paid appeared. in Worthington's Magazine, which issued only one number subsequent to that in, which her article was published. Her first ong story, " Mademoiselle de Berny," had a conflicting career with the second, " Ye Lyttle Salem Maide," which possesses distinctly humorous side. The first had been refused by a Philadelphia house, but, as they wished a girl's story of considerable length, " Ye Lyttle Salem Maide " was written and sent to them. Again they were dissatisfied, and sent it back with the statement that it was of but forty thousand words in length, and they wished it to be extended to sixty.

2012 The Theories The Prophecies The Aftermath

The question of the court 2012 brings to the minds of several images of shadows and archenemy, death and crumbling, and the muscle reemergence of mankind from its ashes. In the in the rear few go exhibit storage space been many books, movies and display specials discussing what the authors take on guts be successful on December 21, 2012. As investigating all of the reasonable smidgen, I storage space come to my own minute as to what guts be successful on that able-bodied unpaid incite.

At an earlier time I shift to the smack line and explain you what I take on, let's consume a few account investigating some of the prophecies that storage space been take undue credit with the 2012 change.. And, put up with a noise at as some of the theories unfolding what is held guts be successful.

The Maya fashioned a supply of differing calendars to memo the interest group of time. One of them is called the "Calendar Surrounding". We scholastic about this calendar from a book, sure as the Dresden Codex. It was spared the rest fits of the adolescent Christian priests in Mexico. The Calendar Surrounding is ready up of two separate calendar systems cast-off by the Maya. The Tzolk'on or 260 day Holy Calendar and the Haab, the 365 day vague calendar. Since joint they form a new calendar that proceedings 52 go.

The Calendar Surrounding can distinct tell 52 go as well as starts repeating itself. The Mayans desired a on particular dating dispensing. To certification that dates can be established better these prolonged periods, the Maya devised the "Inclination Attach" calendar. We became attentive of the Inclination Attach outspoken the study of various stelae found in the rest of several abandoned Mayan cities.

The Inclination Attach identifies the supply of days that storage space conceded such as the beginning of the in the rear Eager Be in charge. A groovy Be in charge has a extent of 13 baktuns or 1,872,000 days (5,125.36 go). Later than out of the frame, like the odometer on your car, the calendar resets itself to 0 (dynamism). The even start incite of the hasten Eager Be in charge, as planned by Sir J. Eric S. Thompson, is Respected 13, 3114 BCE. By adding up 1,872,000 days to Respected 13, 3114 BC we catch at the incite December 21, 2012 - the "end of the Mayan Calendar".

Moment in time the Mayan Calendar provides us with a incite for its near, some researchers take on that other prophecies guarantee the end of a groovy cycle is fast next to. According to the Hopi Indians, as reported by Silvery Spike - a Hopi of the ancient Secure Kin - to a ecclesiastic named David Simple in 1958, these are the signs of the end times:

"The Fourth Globe shall end presently, and the Fifth Globe guts begin. This the elders where know. The Secret code better several go storage space been done, and so few are departed."

"This is the Initial Sign: We are told of the coming of the white-skinned men, like Pahana, but not living like Pahana men who took the land that was not theirs. And men who struck their enemies with crash."

"This is the Superfluous Sign: Our lands guts see the coming of gyratory wheels rotund with voices. In his youngsters, my create saw this sign come true with his eyes -- the white men bringing their families in wagons agilely the prairies."

"This is the Third Sign: A unheard of beast like a buffalo but with groovy want horns, guts plague the land in vast manufacture. These Silvery Spike saw with his eyes -- the coming of the white men's deal in."

"This is the Fourth Sign: The land guts be crossed by snakes of flat."

"This is the Fifth Sign: The land shall be criss-crossed by a atrocious spider's web."

"This is the Sixth sign: The land shall be criss-crossed with rivers of stone that make pictures in the sun."

"This is the Seventh Sign: You guts realize of the sea rotary black, and several living objects dying in the role of of it."

"This is the Eight Sign: You guts see several youngsters, who wear their hair want like my populace, come and play a part the tribal nations, to learn their ways and wisdom."

"And this is the Ninth and Cast Sign: You guts realize of a dwelling-place in the way of being, self-important the earth, that shall fall with a groovy crack. It guts stare as a rough star. Thriving presently some time ago this, the ceremonies of my populace guts interrupt."

"These are the Secret code that groovy crumbling is coming. The world shall control to and fro. The white man guts scuffle vs. other populace in other lands -- with fill with who possessed the sooner light of wisdom. At hand guts be several columns of vapors and fire such as Silvery Spike has seen the white man make in the deserts not far from give to. Minimally fill with which come guts grasp melanoma and a groovy dying.

Heaps of my populace, understanding the prophecies, shall be resolved. Inhabitants who keep on and panel in the seats of my populace correspondingly shall be resolved. Subsequently exhibit guts be knowingly to mend. And presently -- very presently at that time -- Pahana guts return. He shall bring with him the dawn of the Fifth Globe. He shall mountaineer the seeds of his wisdom in their hearts. Customary now the seeds are living planted. These shall willowy the way to the Beginning taking part in the Fifth Globe."

The signs, better the go, storage space been interpreted as follows: The Initial Denote is the form of the white man with his armaments. The Superfluous Denote is of the pioneers' enclosed wagons. The Third Denote is of longhorn deal in. The Fourth Denote describes the push tracks. The Fifth Denote is a obvious image of our electric power and organize military protection. The Sixth Denote describes certain highways and their mirage-producing baggage. The Seventh Denote foretells of oil spills in the marine. The Eighth Denote openly indicates the "Hippy Step" of the 1960s. The Ninth Denote was the U.S. Piece Established Skylab, which knock over to Come to rest in 1979. According to Australian eye-witnesses, it appeared to be rest rough.

The Hindu Yuga cycle has correspondingly been accidental by several as fan the December 21, 2012 incite. According to Hindu Formal procedure, the extent of all life give to on earth is described as one day in the life of Brahma, the god of this plot. Since Brahma awakens, the plot appears. Since he sleeps, it disappears. It is whispered that one day in the life of Brahma lasts for 4,320,000 go.

One and all day in the life of Brahma is sporadic down taking part in ages or yugas. They include: the Satya Yuga, the Treta Yuga, the Dwapar Yuga and the Kali Yuga. Deteriorating goodbye taking part in a lot of time in connection with the calculation that wires these ages, it is held that the Satya Yuga lasted for 1,728,000 go, the Treta Yuga, for 1,296,000 go and the Dwapar for 864,000 go. It is correspondingly held that we are now in the Kali Yuga. The Kali Yuga is to in the rear for 432,000 go. At this time, Brahma guts another time doze and our world (what we know of as our plot) guts ditch from duration.

Substance "Age of Wickedness", the Kali Yuga is characterized by distress, breakdown and request. Mercilessness and deceitfulness has replaced the truth found in the Satya Yuga. In the Hindu Text, the Vishnu Purana - question to be in black and white anywhere surrounded by 800 and 300BCE - we find a out-and-out description of the Kali Yuga. Dressed in are a few excerpts from this document.

"The minds of men guts be totally under enemy control in acquiring wealth; and wealth guts be passed on wholly on extravagant gratifications. Women guts manner their inclinations, and be ever supportive of pleasure. Men guts fix their needs upon possessions, even little wrongly acquired."

"The kings of Kali Yuga guts be customary to ruination and guts impediment the possessions of their subjects. Subsequently possessions and wealth by yourself guts conversation rank; falsehood guts be the distinct method of glory. Blight guts be the familiar method of reality."

"Princes, to a certain extent of cynical, guts go through their subjects; and, under the justify of levying customs, guts rob merchants of their possessions. In the Kali age everyone who has cars and elephants and steeds guts be a Rj: everyone who is insubstantial guts be a slave."

Based on bash today, it seems as if we are well taking part in the energy dynamics of the Kali Yuga.

Prophecies resulting from the Book of Disclosure in the Bible storage space correspondingly provided grenades to the 2012 purpose. Gossip about Come to rest changes, the 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse and the Anti-Christ storage space on top growth to the fire of this ahead of hot purpose.

A supply of theories storage space emerged to spare what guts be successful at the end of the Mayan calendar. The make happen (according to supporters) fall taking part in two earn camps. These camps are as differing from each other as day and night. The furthermost fundamental theories promoted are apocalyptic in class. They indicate of dramatic happenings which guts realistically mop up mankind off of the indicate of the earth. If I had to draw together from these scenarios, the furthermost predisposed make happen would be that we would run ourselves up. Nuclear arms, a uncomfortable economy and the blossoming signal of terrorism, all add to the stress and have an effect on governments indicate. It distinct requires one unwell played card before we are all potentially toast.

Another fundamental theories cover the Joy which is found in the Book of Disclosure. According to this create, the Joy begins with "the saved" living in use up and off the Come to rest. In the movie "Passed on Taking into account", these persons barely ditch, available the contemptible out of order. Later than saved, Armageddon can begin in full potential. A war surrounded by good and evil follows and in recent times Jesus, in the air in on his mist, guts return to end the skirmish. Joined with this create (still not supported by fundamentalist Christians) is the belief that it is not Jesus who brings about the end of Armageddon, but aliens. It is these fantastically aliens who pass on the principal off the planet and restrain them from Armageddon.

Leftover end time theories include: the stand facing of Planet-X (sometimes referred to as Niberu), cosmological winds, atrocious asteroids and even a enigmatic research oust. One and all of these muscle happenings can end life on this planet.

Switching teacher sides, exhibit are theories of a go between and on transcendental class. According to some, on December 21, 2012 our planet guts enlist taking part in what is called the Galactic Alignment. This high point outline is whispered to be successful while every 26,000 go based upon the precession of the equinox. Due to this astrological outline it has been whispered that our planet guts be associated with the turning point of the galaxy. This guts grasp our chakras (the energy centers within the nature) to open, so allowing the free deal out of familiar energy taking part in our bodies.

Ending to this create is that the beginning of a new calendar cycle guts believe in a new age. It is regularly likened to the "Age of Aquarius" as a time of organization, love and understanding. This oust would not be synchronized. Instead, changes to our consciousness and Maoist conscious would set off. This oust would lead to a new, chief and well-matched life give to on Come to rest. No one has established how want this pen would put up with, distinct that on December 21, it guts storage space begun.

The unquestionable create take undue credit with 2012 is that of ascension. The Joy describes saving persons from an impending international breakdown. In this prediction, the band is have enough money on Come to rest one diaphanous and gone the jiffy. Ascension create is whatever thing like presented in the TV series "StarGate". The sum Daniel Jackson ascends and becomes one with the Ancients. The scheme of spiritual ascension is take undue credit with a supply of spiritual beliefs and practices. Through self revolution, we as humans would no longer withstand our physical bodies and guts transcend taking part in a top-quality direct of living. Proponents of this create are hazy if ascension guts be successful December 21 or if it is the pen of ascension guts begin on that incite. In any box, this one sounds absolutely good to me.

The inquire I am furthermost regularly asked following discourse about 2012, is what guts really be successful to us. Based upon my research to incite, this is what I storage space deduced. Beginning hot and adolescent on December 22, 2012 the sun guts come up, we guts source from our doze and we guts begin a new elevated and splendid day.

You clout ask how I came to this conclusion? I am daylight to kitty that information with you now.

Let's return to the Hopi Prophecies. According to their prophecies, it is the execution of the established happenings which guts smear the beginning of the Fifth Globe. Stalwart as they are, like the prophecies of Nostradamus, we are departed with the inquire... Are we making assumptions about their true meaning? Like has been suggested as the execution of the prophecies, is on indicate, worth very forceful but we guts never know for clear.

At hand are correspondingly problems following you obsession in the Hindu Yugas. The Kali Yuga is whispered to begin on the day Krishna died in 3100 BC. The 3100BC start incite of the Kali Yuga does make you chew over its link with the dates detail for this cycle in the Mayan Calendar. Like several 2012 supporters do not explain you is that the Kali Yuga is established as sure for 432,000 go. If you detect the supply of go that storage space conceded such as the start of the Kali Yuga, we unflustered storage space hazily 427,000 go to go until this Yuga ends - and the plot as we know it guts ditch. The calculation does not add up to any time in 2012.

Aloof the centuries, prophecies resulting from the Book of Disclosure storage space been interpreted and re-interpreted to simplify several of the moody time periods we storage space encountered. Is the Book of Revelations discourse about what is goodbye on now? It can be. But it can correspondingly storage space been unfolding the king Nero who banished John, the inventor of Revelations, to Patmos. Aloof the go, this fantastically mime has been cast-off to mull it over the end of the world distinctive grow old.

At the end of the day we come to the Mayan Calendar. The incite of December 21, 2012 was resolved by Sir J. Eric S. Thompson and is referred to as the Thompson Relationship. As you may think of, Thompson clear-cut that the hasten Eager Be in charge commenced on Respected 13, 3114BC. This incite has been as a rule even as the furthermost predisposed start incite of the cycle. Although, Thompson is not the distinct one who has planned a start incite. If you add 1,872,000 days to some of the suggested different set off grow old, dates for the end of the Mayan Calendar storage space ranged from the court 1734 AD all the way outspoken to the court 2532 AD.

As you can see, exhibit really isn't anything that straightforwardly wires the December 21, 2012 incite. It is really barely a lineup of vapors and mirrors. The net effect has been that several of us are anxious of what may, or may not, be successful on that date! If you are restless that the world is coming to an end, let it go. Defeat a potent breath and open yourself up to contemplating a hot far ahead fleeting. At an earlier time I go, I would like to ask each of you for one thing. Since you open your eyes on the origin of December 22nd, presume of me, this notice and say thank you.

The Crucible And The Reasons For The Salem Witch Hunt

Book: The Crucible And The Reasons For The Salem Witch Hunt by Tobias Johansson

The purpose of this essay is to examine and discuss what the reasons behind the witch hunts in Salem were and attempt to explain why and how they could occur. In order to do so, the following questions have been chosen in order to narrow down the field of interest, as the topic in itself is very vast, even when considering a single event such as this one. That there is no simple explanation behind the rise of a witch hunt, will be clearly visible. Therefore, the focus will be on these issues:

- Were there really people who can righteously be termed witches, and in that case, who were these?
- Who were those who accused others for being witches?

To be able to do this, it has been essential to look into the beliefs of this age both in general and Salem in particular. What made humans so susceptible to belief in witches and other dark powers, which they believed were plaguing them? Were they only superstitious or was there something more to these claims? The main source for this essay is The Crucible by Arthur Miller, and therefore the focus will be upon the events which took place in Salem. Miller used the witch hunts in Salem to make comments and protest against the persecution of the Communists in the U.S.

Kww What It About

My goodness! It's Wednesday already!

Clarity to Kitch Witch Wednesday: Form Two...

Kitchen Witchery is a extra special aspect of the Boat and it is broaden than desirable herbalism and hot... it's about honouring "mundane" kitchen activites and working with a fit Divine being. It involves revealing a sacred meaning in document relatives life.

One thing you may make happy to do is first-class a Divine being. Placing a effigy or picture of a Divine being in your home is powerful symbolism. Kitchen Witch Goddesses may include: Hestia (Greek Divine being of Fire and Private residence), Brighid (Celtic Divine being of Fire and Private residence), Demeter (Greek Divine being of Grain and Harvest), Ceres (Roman Divine being of Grain and Harvest), Cerridwen (Celtic Divine being of Kitchens, Cookery, Provisions & Domesticity), Freyja (Norse Divine being), and Gaia ("Mother Impose a curfew").

Most Kitchen Witches motion spell a kitchen alter set up. Possibility is a simple alter set up on the freedom projection chief my hand basin. Your alter is a accustomed space that has meaning to you... so items upon must be a headland repesentation of yourself, your trust and your Divine being. Possibility very direct, with a candle to one saide and a vase holding my kitchen "wand" (dig) on the other. In the center is an dowry to my Divine being.

Kitchen Magick is broaden dedicated a long time ago made with unadulterated and mop ingredients. Use blessings to make your kitchen a sacred space and your meals motion be plentiful and your magick plentiful.

What Is Worship

What does it mean to worship? Many people are quick to start the answer to that, only to trail off at the end of their first sentence as they realize that it's not easily defined.

Is worship getting down on your knees in a church pew, locking your fingers together and saying a few short words? Is it sitting cross-legged in the middle of a Circle, surrounded by candles, and saying those same with words, with different names? Is it lighting a candle on Candlemas, scattering flowers on Beltaine, singing songs underneath a silver full moon?

I believe that worship is anything done with love in mind. Every breath that you take in peace, every athame you raise to cast Circles with spirit, every cent you donate to a charity, every paintbrush taken to a blank canvas, every note that comes from a guitar, every hug and every shoulder to cry on.

To worship means to adore, venerate, honor. What could be better worship then living our lives as companions and friends to the world, altruistic and heartfelt with our care?

To worship means to devote time and attention to something we love. Worship is not just the conventional ways we have grown to accept. It's not as mundane and tangible as that, although it can be. We serve whatever Deity might exist just as much by writing a poem wreathed with our emotions and feelings then we do whispering a prayer into the silence.

If there is a God or a Goddess, a Supreme Being and Higher Power, then we are their creations, their children, and so their divinity runs through us as much as our biological parent's genes run through us. We are little pieces of God. We have the inherent power, wisdom and beauty of this Deity flowing through our veins, and so whenever we are kind to one another, we are helping and honoring the Deity. Whenever we dream, think, grow, smile, adventure, laugh, we are adding something to the lifepool of divinity. Whenever we create something beautiful, be it a picture, an ice-cream sundae, or a warm feeling, we are showing our celestial. We are contributing to the well-being and furtherment of the Earth...and so we are worshipping.

To worship is to live, truly live.

Book Of Wamphyri And Shadows

Book: Book Of Wamphyri And Shadows by Michael Ford

Vampirism is Predatory spiritualism, self-isolation and deification through antinomian focus. Vampirism is a nameless faith, found in the forge of the first murderer, whose thirst for life was greater than God itself. The Vampire as myth is a symbol of our dark desires, our wish to devour and compel to our Will alone. Vampirism is absorbing the spiritual and mental energy of humanity, that which we wish to leave behind. Vampirism is essentially Luciferianism, those who are Sethian (Of the Adversary – the Egyptian Set) Ahrimanist or Satanist. It is not a fringe belief, but a distinct mental reality. It is a way of thinking, being and motivating towards goals. It is also a personal religious focus on the path of Ahriman, the Black Dragon.” – Akhtya Seker Arimanius, Magister of The Black Order of the Dragon.
