i think concernedape should add a feature in stardew valley where - while looking at the map - you can find every villager and where they’re at at that moment, including whether they’re walking or just standing somewhere. this would lessen the time of me taking hours to find someone, for them not to be there. just a thought.

Master of All Arts

Lugh, Lord of Craftsmanship, Light, Victory and War, is a master builder, harper, poet, warrior, sorcerer, metalworker, cupbearer and physician. It’s hard to envision anything that Lugh isn’t good at.

Lugh was venerated throughout the ancient Celtic world. At least fourteen European Cities are named for Lugh, including Laon, Leyden, Loudon and Lyon. Lyon’s old name was Lugdunum, meaning “Lugh’s Fort”. That city is believed to have been his cult center. Its coins bore the images of ravens, which may be a reference to Lugh. The Romans identified Lugh with Mercury. Many European churches dedicated to Michael the Archangel are believed to have been built over sites once dedicated to Lugh. Post-Christianity, many of Lugh’s sacred functions were reassigned to saints like Patrick and Luke.

Lugh apparently traveled westward through Europe. Irish and Welsh myths describe his first appearance in their pantheon. He is greeted with resistance from women in Wales. His first public act in Ireland is to join battle with the Tuatha Dé Danann (his father’s people) against the Fomorian, his mother’s people. Lugh chooses allegiance with his paternal line; the myth may be interpreted as indicating the beginnings of patriarchy in Ireland.

☀️ Manifestation: He is often described as shining, handsome, charming and witty. He has a silver tongue to match his skillful hands.

☀️ Consorts: Lugh has different consorts in different locations, but he was frequently linked to Rosmerta

☀️ Spirit Allies: Lugh shared the city of Lyon with Kybele, and Paris with Isis. In battle, Lugh used his own weapons, but also those belonging to Manannan.

☀️ Animals: Lion, Horse, Raven, Stag, Crow, Hound, Lynx

☀️ Festival: August 1st, the festival of Lughnasa. Lughnasa means “the marriage of Lugh”. Lugh the sun and the Earth Mother renew their vows annually during the full moon in August and invite all to gather and revel with them. Lughnasa celebrates the consummation of their sacred relationship.

Once upon a time, Lughnasa was a four week festival; the last two weeks of July and the first two weeks of August, roughly corresponding to when the sun is in Leo, the astrological sign that belongs to the sun and epitomizes its power. In modern Irish Gaeilge, the month of August is Lunasa. However, the modern wiccan sabbat of Lughnasa is almost devoted solely to the eve of July 31st leading to Lughnasa Day on August 1st.

Letting Go Banishing Spell

What you will need:

-a piece of yarn

-a piece of paper and a pen

Ask yourself the following, and write a list for each:

-What old habits or patterns are no longer good for you or your relationships?

-What things from the past are taking a toll on your family and/or community and would best be forgiven and forgotten?

-What does our planet need less of to make it more healthy?

Choose one item from each list that you genuinely wish to banish and get rid of. Take a piece of yarn and make three knots in it, one for each issue. As you make each knot think of each situation clearly and imagine it being firmly bound inside the knot. Bury the knotted yarn where sun, wind, and rain cannot touch it. Let it rot away.
