The white stag also appears in Arthurian myths leading the great king to spiritual enlightenment.<BR/> <BR/>The appearance of one of the oldest constellations, Taurus the Bull, marked the beginning of spring for the ancient Druids <BR/> <BR/>I find the link with the varied cultures their totemic myths fascinating. Christians are symbolicly "washed in the blood of the lamb" which is tradtionally held to be white.<BR/><BR/>It could be said that the Crucifix is the ultimate Christian totem.SQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17769197896941881830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15872122.post-39954188650007375472008-04-14T11:39:00.000-04:002008-04-14T11:39:00.000-04:00SQ,Interestingly, one of the links refers to the E...SQ,<BR/>Interestingly, one of the links refers to the Egyptian Book of the Dead that says in Chapter 84:<BR/>"And when she promised to return again, she made some prophesies at that time. One of those prophesies was that the birth of a white buffalo calf would be a sign that it would be near the time when she would return again to purify the world."<BR/>Here's an intersting thought.<BR/>What if we're all spiritual anomalies? <BR/>Thanks,<BR/>SandySandy Frosthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03428247319602109588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15872122.post-48710517057332731202008-04-13T13:36:00.000-04:002008-04-13T13:36:00.000-04:00Sandy, I also thank you for the links to the white...Sandy,<BR/> <BR/>I also thank you for the links to the white buffalo stories. I have followed these births off and on through the years. I am also pleased that you included the information on other animals as well.<BR/> <BR/>When I was very young local hunters killed a white deer. The hunters brought the deer to the school to show the children. I remember looking at this beautiful creature with a mixture of horror and fascination, the horror of killing such a magnificent animal accompanied with the fascination of being so close to something that, even in death, had a power that was hard to describe. <BR/><BR/>The bright red blood on the stark white fur is an image that will always be burned into my memory. Even as a child. the symbolism was very powerful.<BR/> <BR/>I am sure many would simply explain these animals as a genetic anomalies, I prefer to think of them as spiritual anomalies myself, one has only to experience their power first hand to believe.SQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17769197896941881830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15872122.post-32677563911296466012008-04-13T12:16:00.000-04:002008-04-13T12:16:00.000-04:00Thank you Sandy for the links.

How can matter not have mass? Why does it need to get it from some unique substance? Ignoramus that I am, I thought that mass is a part-and-parcel of all matter. Glad I tuned it tonight.Nemohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07112767973796212863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15872122.post-85001216173031032262008-04-10T17:07:00.000-04:002008-04-10T17:07:00.000-04:00Thank you for using the symbol of the White Buffal...Thank you for using the symbol of the White Buffalo, as their recent births are a very important part of our cosmology and prophecy.

Masonry teaches us to keep an open mind but also teaches us the value of proof in geometry, the study of which surely teaches us the value of symmetry and balance. The Boson theory just doesn't seem elegant or balanced. Coming up with the solution: "Oh, well, it's something invisible--advances in science will prove me right" seems pretty weak. I can prove this, by the way .... I mean, I'll be able to prove it ... in a couple of years ... when science finally catches up with me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15872122.post-46549978844015379442008-04-08T16:40:00.000-04:002008-04-08T16:40:00.000-04:00The motor citty madman!love it!Never before have I...The motor citty madman!<BR/>love it!<BR/><BR/>Never before have I turned on you<BR/>You look too good to me<BR/>Your beady eyes, they could cut me in two<BR/>And i just can't let you be <BR/>Well, it's a free for all, and I heard it said <BR/>You can bet your life<BR/>Stakes are high and so am I<BR/>It's in the air tonight<BR/><BR/>See you there with your cheshire grin<BR/>I got my eyes on you <BR/>Shake yout tail feather in my face and there's no tell in what I'll do <BR/>Well looky here, you sweet young thing: the magic's in my hands<BR/>When in doubt, I'll whip it out.
