🌽🌽🌽 LUGHNASADH 🌽🌽🌽

Lughnasadh, or Lammas Day as the Christians named it, is an ancient Celtic festival held on August 1st, marking the first of three harvest festivals (Lugnasadh, Mabon and Samhain). It was a time to give thanks to the Celtic god Lugh, the many-skilled one, who was associated with the sun, light, and crafts. The festival was a grand affair, with feasts, fairs, and celebrations that would last for days on end.

In the field, the wheat and barley were at their peak, and it was time to reap the bounty of the long warm months. The villagers would gather in the fields, armed with sickles and scythes, to cut the ripe grains and bind the sheaves. The first loaves of bread baked from the new wheat were a sacred offering, set aside for the gods and the spirits of the land.

The fair was a lively affair, with games, contests, and a grand displayed of the harvest. Agricultural implements, crops, and livestock would be blessed, as the villagers sought the continued favor of Lugh and the spirits. Bards and musicians would perform their craft, telling tales of the gods and the heroes of old.

The festival also marked the beginning of the end of summer, as the days would start to grow shorter and fall would creep over the land. The villagers would begin to prepare for the coming winter by storing away the harvest and repairing their homes against the cold and the rain.

Lughnasadh was a time of grand festivities and solemn rituals, as the villagers sought to honour the gods and the spirits of the land. The first fruits of the harvest would be offered to the gods, and the villagers would feast on the bounty of the land, giving thanks for the blessings of the work well done that had sustained them through the long winter, and the dedication of the harvest was a solemn and important part of this festival. The villagers would decorate the fields with garlands of flowers and herbs, and would make offerings of the first fruits and vegetables to the gods.

It also had a more sombre side, as Lughnasadh was one of the days on which the souls of the dead could cross the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead. The spirits of the ancestors and the beloved were invited to join in the festivities, and in some cases, the villagers would set out food and drink for the dead beside the hearth.

The festivities would be marked by great feasts, with tables groaning under the weight of the crops and the meats of the hunted. There would be bonfires and great wheel games, and the villagers would dance around the fires as they had danced around the bonfires of Beltane and midsummer.

This would last for many days, with bonfires on the hills and feasts in the village halls. The villagers would feast on the bounty of the land and the fruits of their labour, and would sing, dance and make merry to the gods who had blessed them with such a bountiful harvest. The festival would end with a grand feast, where the villagers would gather to share the fruits of their labour and give thanks to Lugh and the spirits of the land.

As the festival drew to a close, the villagers would also remember those who had been lost in the past year, and would say prayers and make offerings to the gods on their behalf. The spirits of the dead were a constant presence in the lives of the Celtic people, and they believed that the festival was a time when the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead was at its thinnest.

Lughnasadh would be followed by the harvest fair, where the villagers would gather to buy and sell livestock, crops, and goods. The fair was a time of great commerce and trade, as the villagers would bring their wares from all over the land to sell and barter with one another. It was a time of great celebration and revelry, as the villagers would dance, sing, and feast on the bounty of the land.

🎨 Colours:

Gold/Yellow: Represents the ripening fields, the sun's warmth, and the golden grains ready for harvest.

Orange/Red: Stands for the changing landscape as summer progresses, the vibrant sunsets, and the transition into autumn.

Brown: Signifies the earth, soil, and the connection to the land during the harvest.

Green: Symbolises the fertile earth, flourishing crops, and the vitality of the land during the summer season.

Blue: While not as prominent, some traditions associate blue with Lughnasadh, representing the sky and water, connecting to the spiritual aspects of the celebration.

💎 Crystals:

Green Aventurine: Promotes fertility, abundance, renewal and growth. This stone is a boon to all creative endeavours and artistic pursuits. Also, its vibrant green colour symbolises the lushness of nature.

Carnelian: Carnelian is a stone of life force and vitality; it is renowned for instilling fearlessness and courage in its wearer, helping overcome self-doubts and fears as well as inner conflicts.

Red Jasper: As a stone of the earth, red jasper possesses an unrivalled ability to ground and stabilise its wielder in the physical realm. It fosters a deep connection to the soil and land, helping the witch feel rooted, secure, and at one with the natural world. This is particularly essential during harvest celebrations like Lughnasadh, where the focus lies on the bounty and the bounty of the earth.

Smoky Quartz: Above all else, smoky quartz is renowned for its unparalleled protective qualities. It forms an impenetrable shield around its wearer, deflecting negative energies, curses, and all manner of harm. At Lughnasadh and other harvest festivals, smoky quartz can be worn or carried to safeguard against the wicked whispers of jealous neighbours or the mischievous antics of trickster spirits.

Citrine: Citrine is famous for its ability to bring joy, optimism, and a positive attitude to its wielder. It banishes negative thoughts and emotional baggage, replacing them with a vibrant and hopeful outlook. At the harvest festival of Lughnasadh, citrine can help the witch embrace the abundance and prosperity of the season with enthusiasm and gratitude.

Amber: As a remnant of ancient sunlight trapped within its crystalline matrix, amber embodies the life-giving energy and warmth of the sun. It can rejuvenate the spirit and replenish the witch's vital energies, even amidst the changing seasons and waning daylight of the harvest season. Amber in Wicca signifies the enduring power of life, light, and renewal.

🌻 Flowers:

Cornflowers: Cornflowers are a quintessential symbol of the late summer harvest season. At Lugnasadh, cornflowers are often used to decorate the harvest table, altars, and homes of the villagers as a gesture of gratitude and appreciation for the earth's abundance. In Celtic folklore, cornflowers are said to have protective and prosperous properties. Placing cornflowers around the home or wearing them as a charm could safeguard the household from misfortune, illness, and the evil eye.

Poppies: Their presence in the fields and meadows serves as a poignant reminder of the natural cycle of life, death, and rebirth that permeates the festival's core. The poppy's delicate petals and the seeds it bears within its pod symbolise the impermanence of life and the necessity of change. In Celtic tradition, the blood-red hue of the poppy is a powerful emblem of sacrifice and remembrance. At Lugnasadh, the festival took on a melancholy tone as the Celts honoured the spirits of the ancestors and those who had given their lives for the good of the tribe. Poppies, with their crimson blooms and delicate beauty, were used to adorn the graves and memorial sites of the deceased, serving as a symbol of their noble sacrifice.

Sunflowers: The sunflower's tall stature and grand, expansive flowers symbolise the abundance and prosperity that the harvest season brings. In Celtic culture, sunflowers were often planted in the fields as a means of promoting a bountiful harvest and ensuring a prosperous year ahead. At Lugnasadh, the first sunflowers of the season were considered a harbinger of good fortune and were celebrated accordingly.

Daisies: Daisies have long been used in various forms of divination and folk magic, particularly in the Celtic tradition. At Lugnasadh, daisy petals could be used to divine the future or make important decisions. The Celtic practice of "heigh ho, the derry o!" involved plucking the petals while chanting the rhyme to uncover secrets and gain insights into the coming months ahead. The daisy's association with intuition and inner wisdom could also be harnessed to align with the festival's themes of reflection, renewal, and reconnection with one's deepest self.

🌿 Herbs and/or other Botanicals

Wheat and Wheat Sheaves: A staple crop for the Celts, wheat was not only a primary food source but a vital symbol of the harvest season. At Lugnasadh, the first loaf of bread made from the new wheat crop was offered to the gods as a representation of the bounty and abundance of the land. Also, corn dollies were made from wheat for decorative purposes.

Oats: Oats are a sacred grain that symbolises love, purity, and fertility. In Celtic culture, oats were often used in divination rituals and as a protective charm against evil spirits. At the Lugnasadh festival, oats could be scattered around the home or woven into garlands to invite prosperity and security.

Others: Seasonal berries, apples, nuts, corn, wine grapes and mushrooms. Small scythes and harvest tools. As for classical herbs, you can, among the most common ones, select from rosemary, sage, thyme, and cinnamon.

Animals:

🦌 Stag: Stags embody strength, independence, and leadership, qualities that are valuable as communities prepare for the coming autumn and winter. They are also seen as symbols of guidance, watchfulness, and having a sharp eye, which can be interpreted as wisdom and foresight, important for navigating the changing seasons.

🐓 Rooster: Roosters are linked to Lughnasadh through their association with the sun god, Lugh. Their crowing at dawn symbolises the sun's energy and its role in ripening the crops.

🐑 Lamb: Lambs, or sheep in general, are connected to Lughnasadh as they represent sacrifice, particularly the willingness to offer something for the well-being of the community.

🐄 Cattle: Cattle, especially bulls, were historically sacrificed during Lughnasadh rituals to ensure the land's fertility and the community's prosperity. Cattle also represented wealth and social standing.

🐝 Bees: Bees are associated with Lughnasadh due to the late summer honey harvest. They represent the gathering and storing of resources for winter, mirroring human activities during the harvest season.

🀃 Runes:

Fehu (ᚠ): Stands for wealth, prosperity, and material gain, which aligns with the harvest and abundance associated with Lughnasadh.

Jera (ᛃ): Directly represents the harvest cycle, cycles of nature, and the reward for hard work, making it a fitting choice for this festival.

Ingwaz (ᛝ): The rune for fertility, growth, and the potential for new beginnings, which aligns with the themes of harvest and the continuation of the life cycle

🃏 Tarot Card:

The Seven of Pentacles: This card often depicts a farmer examining his harvest, which directly mirrors the focus of Lughnasadh on the first harvest of the season. It also symbolises a pause and reflection on the fruits of one's labour, a key aspect of celebrating the festival.

Zodiac Sign:

🦁 Leo: Ruled by the sun, is associated with fire, creativity, and a time of vibrant energy, mirroring the abundance and celebration of the early harvest. Many pagans, wiccans and witches celebrate Lughnasadh by honouring Lugh, a figure associated with skill, creativity, and the sun, further linking it to Leo's astrological symbolism.

If you don't have the chance to make a big Litha altar, you could make an "Altar in a Glass/Jar" instead! :D Check out mine:

Has anyone in TCC spoken to the dead perpetrators? What's your experiences?

[kipsbat]

that'll go over well

[kipsbat]

to the feds out there most likely keeping a tab on me, i am NOT a danger.

i am NOT planning any crime

i am NOT homicidal towards anyone

i am NOT a threat to society, i have people who love me and i love them back.

and most importantly, I DO NOT OWN ANY GUNS OR OTHER WEAPONS TO CARRY OUT AN ATTACK, I DO NOT WANT TO DO ANYTHING OF THE SORTS. PLEASE LEAVE ME BE.

[kipsbat]

ive been extremely inactive in tcc for this exact reason. I think many school shooters know that most people, especially the youth, that writes to them are planning a tragedy of some sort, and they dont want to be involved with it at all. It doesnt shock me that as hes gotten healthier and older hes stopped writing to mostly everyone, its nearly unheard of to get an answer from him, whereas back in the 90s-early 2000s it was easier to write to him.

Kip is such a G for saying he doesnt write back to 16 year olds, Its so fucked up that it needs to be praised but it really does, It just shows you that he really understands the mindset 15-16 year olds can be in at that age because he lived it in such a horrible way - Sad but he’s really the most moral upstanding shooter out there who i truly believe is reformed

[kipsbat]

jeff the killer drawings i did !

Can u draw kip Kinkel getting it up the booty by diddy please 🥺🥺🥺

GET AWAY FROM ME ANON

[kipsbat]

Klebtomaniac, a well known artist in the tcc community is not a good person.

Her name is Zio, Zio is 23 years old, she has previously gotten sexual with my Dylan alter knowing that he’s 17, and bodily I am 16. This interaction wasn’t a one time occurrence, and it took a severe toll on my mental health as she continued to deny that it ever happened. She’s tried to ignore the event multiple times, avoiding confrontation and further betraying my trust. She also knew about my BPD, and how I have an anxious attachment style that formed from infancy. She took advantage of this, and toyed with my feelings continuously, despite me telling her how I was extremely sensitive. She ignored me for months, despite me contacting her on telegram, and discord. And when she responded, and it was quick, and she brushed off my feelings. I shared personal information about me to her, sexually, physically, and emotionally. I will be showing multiple screenshots of her ignoring how Dylan and her got sexual, and how she only used me as a shoulder to cry on. One of the screenshots also shows I am speaking about the user on Tumblr @effigyofxeno, she is 19, and recently gained a new mutual on Tumblr. She started to ignore me, and I voiced my feelings, and she belittled me, and ended up blocking me when I was being honest with her. She told me my existence pissed her off. Getting back to Zio, she sent sexual images to Dylan (feet pictures to be specific), and let him send her porn videos, and encourage his behavior sexually. I actually told someone, my old ex, Emmy (as everyone knows Emmy is also a pedo) about Zio's actions, and Emmy and her friend posted a Tumblr post about Zio becoming sexual with a minor (me). I told Zio, because I was upset Emmy did it, and Zio told me "Do not ever do that again, please tell your friend to delete their post." She continued to hide our relationship, and continued to become sexual with me. Until it slowly started to end, and she started to ignore me. I will provide screenshots for all of this, and I am trying to get my old account back to show the more sexual encounters I had with Zio.

The New York Times article about the 1998 Thurston High School shooting (Friday 22nd of May, 1998)

Transcript:

Minutes before the 8 o'clock bell rang to start the day at Thurston High School today, a student carrying three guns opened fire on hundreds of other students gathered in the cafeteria, killing one, the police said. Twenty-three other students were injured, five critically, by gunfire and in the resulting melee.

As the student tried to reload a .22- caliber rifle, a member of the wrestling team, who had been critically injured, tackled him, and other students helped subdue him. An hour later, the police said, at the suggestion of the 15-year-old boy, identified as Kipland F. Kinkel, officers went to his home and found two adults shot to death there. The boy's grandmother confirmed they were his parents.

''Kip is my grandson; he murdered his mother and father,'' said Katie Kinkel, who lives in Eugene, a college town that borders Springfield. Asked in an interview if she was certain, Mrs. Kinkel, badly shaken, said, ''For sure.''

The police said the teen-ager had been suspended from school the day before, on Wednesday, for bringing a gun to school. They said he had been charged with possession of a stolen gun and then released to his parents, who were both teachers.

As students, teachers and others in this Willamette Valley town of 55,000 people reacted with shock to the shooting, the latest in a series of fatal school shootings by students across the country, state and school officials in Oregon defended the high school's disciplining of Mr. Kinkel the day before.

The state superintendent of schools, Norma Paulus, said the school had acted responsibly on Wednesday by suspending the student, pending an expulsion after an investigation. ''This is not a school problem,'' she said. ''This is a societal problem.''

The Governor of Oregon, John Kitzhaber, said: ''All of us should look at how we have failed as a society and how this could happen in the heart of Oregon. It has been a priority to build prison cells and prison beds -- after the fact. These actions in no way prevent juvenile violence.''

Megan Conklin, a junior who took the same school bus with Mr. Kinkel, said after the shooting, ''He said on the bus that he was mad and he was going to do something stupid. He's a mean kid. He'd said some horrible things to me before.''

Ms. Conklin was in the cafeteria when the shooting began. ''He kicked the door, and he was in this trench coat, and I thought it was part of the play that we were supposed to have today,'' she said. ''Then people started falling and screaming and bleeding. People were pushing to get out.''

Michelle Calhoun, 17, said, ''He walked in, didn't look like he was bothered by anything, and just started shooting at random. I'm angry. This is a good, happy school.''

Her boyfriend, 17-year-old Mikael Nickolauson, a junior who had recently enlisted in the Oregon National Guard, was sitting nearby and was shot and killed. Tonight, Teresa Clark, a family friend answering calls to the Nickolauson home, said: ''This is just a really hard time. Everything is up in the air.''

At an evening news conference, the police said Mr. Kinkel probably would have shot more students if he had not been wrestled to the ground. They said they believe no one else but Mr. Kinkel was involved in the shootings at the school or the house.

Mr. Kinkel was carrying a semiautomatic, .22-caliber rifle, a .22-caliber handgun and a Glock pistol, they said. Among the critically injured was the wrestler who tackled Mr. Kinkel, Jacob Ryker.

Several students said Mr. Kinkel had been upset over teasing from older students, and that he had a temper and a troubled past. The police said that the boy had once been questioned by officers in a neighboring county for throwing rocks at cars from a freeway overpass.

Mr. Kinkel is the son of two teachers, William Kinkel, 59, and Faith Kinkel, 57. Mr. Kinkel was retired. Mrs. Kinkel was still teaching in a school district of Springfield, a working-class town near Eugene, about 110 miles south of Portland.

The Kinkel family lived in a new, rural development about 12 miles from the edge of Springfield, in a two-story frame house above the McKenzie River. They had one other child, a daughter, who is much older and does not live in town.

The boy was active in sports but in the last few years had undergone a marked change in personality, friends said.

''I coached him in soccer, basketball, and baseball,'' said Dave Wing, a grocery store owner, who knew the family well. ''It was an excellent family. Good people. Kip had a temper though. If he didn't get his way, he would kick and shout.''

Some neighbor boys said in the last years that young Kinkel started dressing in black and taking on the pose of a ''Gothic,'' a youth persona with music and style, gloomy and dark.

''He was a good kid in grade school, but then his freshman year, he started wearing black and not talking to people,'' said Jessica Rose, a neighbor who rode the bus with the boy.

Some friends indicated that the boy may have intended to shoot up the school on Wednesday. . Students said he was angry about insults from seniors. On Wednesday, the police said, they were called to the school on a report of a stolen gun, questioned the boy, found the gun, and took him to the police station for booking and fingerprinting.

He was released under Oregon law for arrests on this type of offense, being in possession of a stolen weapon. The authorities said today that they would try the boy as an adult. In Oregon, because of his age he could not be executed if convicted.

The police said they did not know if the shooting at the boy's home occurred on Wednesday night or today.

The authorities said the boy took a family car to school today.

Just before 8 A.M., senior boys were gathered in the library for senior awards day, preparing to give out awards for sports and other activities. In the cafeteria, students were eating breakfast and socializing.

''I thought it was fireworks, and then I thought it was a cap gun,'' said Stephani Quimby, a student at the school.

''He walked in and he was wearing this big, long trench coat and he pulled out a rifle,'' said James Kistner, another student. ''He squeezed off, I say, about three or four rounds. Then there was like a short pause. And from there on he just kept his finger on the trigger and let ammo fly.''

Witnesses gave conflicting accounts of how long the shooting went on. Some students said it lasted as long as 10 minutes. ''It didn't look like he was bothered by anything,'' Miss Calhoun said. ''Like the shooting was just something he was doing.''

Miss Calhoun said the dead student, Mr. Nickolauson, had been her boyfriend for nine months. She said Mr. Nickolauson was a native of Springfield, who loved science fiction.

A Springfield police officer who interrogated Mr. Kinkel, Capt. Jerry Smith, said, ''When I spoke to him he was very calm.''

Springfield is known as a timber town, with a rural feel, though in recent years it has been on an economic upswing with the arrival of computer-chip factories. Residents here said many students are familiar with guns, because they hunt.

The school does not have metal detectors, but it has a strict no-gun policy, and the students and teachers had spoken often about violence.

''You can't even bring a squirt gun into this school,'' said Shayla Johnson, a senior. She and three other friends were holding hands outside the school, where a fence was bedecked with flowers.

The wounded students were taken to two hospitals. Nineteen students were injured by gunfire. Others were hurt in the scramble to get out of the line of fire, hospital officials said.

''I ducked down, and then ran for the door -- we were all just trying to get out,'' said Miss Calhoun. ''I'm really proud of those boys who tried to hold the kid down.''

Miss Calhoun was carrying a single red rose in honor of her slain friend. ''This school is the last place you would expect something like this to happen,'' she said.

One parent, Angela Graybow, was preparing a paper on school violence for the community college she attends. She said she believed Springfield was not immune. Once Mr. Kinkel had been arrested for carrying a gun, she said, he should not have been released. ''They should have had somebody watching him,'' she said.

Some students said Mr. Kinkel used to make odd statements about building a bomb or committing violence, but few people took him seriously. ''He threatened, people knew what was going to happen,'' said Pam Kelly, a junior at the school.

The police, as of today, took the bomb-building stories seriously. Fearing that the Kinkel house might be wired with a bomb, officers cordoned off several blocks.

Thurston is one of two public high schools in Springfield, and has about 1,700 students. No one interviewed could recall episodes of student violence, except a knife fight two years ago.

Before Dylan Butler (2024 Iowa high school shooting) he texted his friends gc saying he was nervous either before or after gearing up in the bathroom.

He also recorded his shooting live on Instagram but as far as I know, nobody has the recording.

Alot of shooters who did it out of pure psychosis (for example, kip Kinkel, Michael Carneal) they may have been a bit nervous but a lot of them were also on auto pilot, hence why some of them "snapped" out of it and begged whoever got them to surrender to also kill them out of pure regret. (Shockingly, alot of them have done this.)

im genuinely so interested if any school shooter/ killer was nervous before carrying out the attack, and even if they weren’t, just to know what was going through their heads right before would be so freaking cool

[kipsbat]

so I have a couple of questions ( you don’t have to answer lol )

is Michael carneal fine with writing to teens

you talked about a anonymous site when talking about Kip what is it

and I also wanted to say you seem so cool I have been to shy to like talk lol 🫡

I love getting penpal questions!! 1; Im not sure if Michael typically writes to teenagers or not, but in my first letter to him i did tell him i was a teen, and he wrote back, sooooo go for it? 2; If you're talking about communicating with Kip then theres a few different apps you can use, GTL/Getting out seems to be the most popular. 3; TYYYYYYYY!!!!
