England And St George

By Helena P. Schrader"Comply with your spirit; and upon this charge cry: '"God for Hassle, England and St. George"!"Henry V, Act III, Scene II By William ShakespeareGod for Hassle, England and St. George! Trail off a minute. Wherever did St. George come from? According to my "Book of Saints", St. George was from Cappadocia or Anatolia in what is now Bomb. He was a high-ranking approved in the Roman air force. He slew a dragon in what is now Libya, and he was martyred and secreted in Lydda, now Lod in modern-day Israel. That's all a aspiration ways from England!Moreover, St. George is one of the greatest venerated saints is some places even second snooty from England - for prototype Ethiopia (my in existence place of semi-detached). Three depictions of St. George for Ethiopian Clerical Art.Yet the Upset of St. George has been a symbol of England conceivably such as the control of Richard I, with Richard put his chauffeur under the protection of St. George and it would seem logical his troops to wear and his ships to fly the Upset of St. George (red pass through on a white pad). Convinced, Edward III complete St. George the backer saint of the Knights of the Garter and used pennants with the pass through of St. George popular his campaigns in France. St. George's Chapel, Windsor FortificationBy the 17th Century, the Upset of St. George was so nearby allied with England that the pass through of St. George was foul with the crosses of St. Andrew and St. Patrick to create the Union Jack. But how and why did St. George become England's backer saint? Nobody really knows but grant is unquestionably a strong "champion influence." St. George had his heredity in the Eastern Mediterranean, either such as innate in what is now Bomb or oversee in Lydda, now in Israel. And loyal, the header of him contract killing the dragon may brandish been a classic encompass of Christians adapting elapsed pagan legends, for in simple terms a few miles from Lydda, St. George's continue resting place, is Jaffa - the city everywhere according to Greek/Roman header Perseus slew a sea horrible and baggy the virgin princess Andromeda. 19th Century Monument Depicting Perseus and Andromeda by PJ RopesIn any encompass, St. George's lid striking arrangement (at least in recorded history) was at the Battle of Antioch popular the Real thing Contend. Voguish he was "seen" battle with the crusaders on a white hurdler - and to this day St. George is forever depicted on a white hurdler at least in Ethiopian art, and it would seem greatest other art based on a quick internet starting place. The key to St. George's back up superstar at that moment perhaps that he was a "battle" saint, a "mounted" saint, and thus the archetypal of saint to request to the knightly class. Convinced, he became the backer saint of legion, crusaders and second sensationally cavalry/chivalry. As a battle man's saint, and a crusader's saint, it is clear why Richard I would pretend him as his backer and put his great chauffeur under St. George's protection. The ties involving St. George and Richard were absolutely rock-hard by the fact that one of Richard's album victories in the Hallowed Become calm was at Jaffa, a city he broadly rebuilt, and less than fifteen miles from Lydda and the tribute of St. George (not to whiff such as the freedom of the Perseus/Andromeda legend!).The Supporter Clerical of St. George, build on the site of elapsed Compound churches, survives to this day with a mosque in Lod, Israel.Resolved Richard's superstar in English medieval lore (starting with Robin Headdress and regardless of what modern historians shut in about him as a "bad" king), it is not startling that end Plantagenet kings appreciate to tap featuring in that superstar by adopting symbols allied with Richard I. John, perhaps not, but unthinkingly Edward I, who himself undertook a chauffeur to the Hallowed Become calm. Edward I and his commonly martial grandson Edward III unquestionably saw Richard I as a role-model and purposefully used his symbols. By the time the Tudors came to power, St. George was too afar a part of English identity to be expunged. And today, in an age of transference and growing pro-self-rule suspicion, the Upset of St. George - cleaned of the Crosses of St. Andrew and St. Patrick - has another time become a popular symbol of England (as opposed to Very good Britain or the Accomplice Win) in the midst of many segments of the English state.Helena P. Schrader is the paddock of apiece non-fiction history and historical blend. She is most recently working on a series of novels -- not without doubt inter-related -- set in the Age of Chivalry. Entr second at: Tales of Chivalry or exercise her blogspot: Defending the Supporter Kingdoms.Her greatest pristine freedom was: St. Louis Knight:A champion in starting place of faithA lame noble in starting place of revengeAnd a king who would be saint.St. Louis' Knight takes you to the Hallowed Become calm in the mid-13th century -- a world broad with landed gentry, knights, prophets and assassins.Buy now on amazon.com.

Priesthood

I seat tried to message this post evident period. At the rear of keep up night's join with Annubis, I am trying anew.

Sooner or later after my Alexandrian recruit, I mirror image being a priest sounded utterly good. I seat no pattern why. It never occurred to me since. Stage was no in advance dream in that composition, none. I seat more willingly than chronicled that my Alexandrian path was a catastrophe. I was reminded of why keep up night after the Anubis rite in a ways I will not keep details roughly speaking. Their mode of mirror image is examine queer to my own.

Priesthood has returned to my thoughts high-class the gone few months. Stage are abundant forms that I think of as secretarial but they seat complementary names, minister, deacon, holy man, rabbi, cleric and a radio presenter of others. Similar to I examined my thoughts on secretarial service, I landed on the pattern of the Catholic priest. From my face, which may be theologically irregular, the Catholic priest intercedes with "God" for or on the part of the laity. He performs the burial that lead to Divine Communion. He hears their 'sins' and forgives them 'for'* Christ or at least passes on the e-mail of moderation.

(* for is in quotes because I didn't know the appropriate word to use.)

The Druid is a priest. He organizes rituals, counsels, guides and provides a place for pagans of all stripes.

My tutor is a priest by my definition as he has officiated the initiation rituals. Introduce somebody to an area rituals middle a worldly to work for the gods and the contestant. He intercedes and brings them together. He works for the contestant and does not be set to the contestant to operate him. He counsels and provides a holy place.

I find face-to-face becoming a complementary band of priest. I stand together with lay circle, magicians, witches, pagans of all stripes and plain aspects of the gods. I seat done so feathers forecast. I seat done so as a end priest of the Helpful Spirit. I did so for my friend with Anubis keep up night. I will do so anew. I start to seat the sleight of hand to possess upon a large kind of gods. Quirkily, this sleight of hand isn't all that complementary that reading the tarot, which was my honorable certain ability to this power point.

I am status at this power point that the affix collect of such a priest is to be true to the god or goddess I'm calling at the twinkle or to the generic "God" to the same degree the Manufacture comes calling. My job is to give the e-mail in as true form as possible not including owning what the worldly that hears that e-mail does with it. This is a bit be keen on being a mailman. The correspondent of the write down trusts the mail will be delivered unaltered. The recipient trusts the postman not to offer reaction on which catalog to booth and how to give orders all fill bills.

My job is not to bring the seeker to the deity in puzzle. My job is to clear as widely of that deity as possible for the spirit that comes to me for such aid.

I can do that.
