What type of story is this
I believe I was a mermaid in one of my past lives. Think they do exist because they are present in many folklores and Myths globally. Like in Jason Mamoa movie Aquaman it is shown mermaids come in various forms. Some have legs like humans or can shapeshift into humans, and some are more fish like humanoids.
@@zigzig9938 Yes that’s a very good point about them being present in myths and legends globally. And it would make sense that there could be different species, or kinds of mermaids. But I wonder what’s happened to them…
@@talesfromafar In another video on UA-cam it is said that people hunted them down so they decided to hide away.
More Arthurian Legends please.
Thank you for your comment! Are there any particular legends that you would like to see? I'm thinking one of Merlin next!
@@talesfromafar His name shall be Merlin.
How did you come about these beautiful images? They’re so beautiful 🥺
Glad you like them 😊 We didn’t come about them, we had them specifically created to go with each new story moment! Did you also like the story?
@@talesfromafar I wasn’t that enamored by the story, more so the visuals. How did you create them?

Where did you get this information from?
@@talesfromafar I don't know how to answer that, I guess you can say, I got it out of my head, the words are from dictionaries, others from star mythology, I guess you can say common places around the internet. Do you know who the Blacksmith Vulcan is, at the end of Canicula, August 25 or 23rd, they would throw small fish (dag) in the the fire to Vulcanus (Vulcan), 'vul' Latin: to pull, pulling; to tear, tearing, tearing away; to twitch, twitching. 'canus' Latin: White, Gray, Aged, Old, Wise, Hoary, Foamy, White-capped. Wepwawet is a Gray Wolf, the Standing Wolf, who we call Ursa Minor, the ancient Greeks called the constellation Ursa Minor Cynosoura, which translates to "dog's tail" in Greek. The word kunosoura is a combination of the Greek words kuon (dog) and oura (tail). The Dog's Tail Polaris wiggles 0.736 degrees, off Earth's axes, the Sun is tilted 7 degrees, spins 25 days at it's belly, slower at it's poles, 35 days each. 35+35=70, and 2+5=7, 7+3+6=16, another 7, a point on the 7 degree tilted Sun takes 79 years to complete 1 full rotation, you can use Mercury and Mars to check this cycle, every 79 years they show up together on the same day, 7+9=16. Mars retrogrades 70 to 79 days, loops back around and shows back up at the same spot every 707 days, conjuncts with Venus 3 times in 9 months, does it again in 77 months. Venus retrogrades 43 days every 77 weeks, hidden behind the Sun for 7 weeks. Mercury's 88 day year (8+8=16) draws out 7 triangles with 22 retrogrades every 7 years, 22 divided by 7 equals Pi, each 3 week retrograde (3x7) takes place 120 degrees from the last, after 3 a triangle can be drawn out, Mercury rotate very fast around the Sun, spins more time closer to Earth than Venus does, but spins very slow on it's axes, having only 6 days every Earth year, but Mercury does something that none of the other planets do, has a Mid-Day Double Sunrise, midday, the Sun drops below the horizon for a short time, before rising back then continuing on its way towards the west, make it 7 days every Earth year. A Jupiter year is 11.86 years, 11+86=97, and a Saturn year is 29.5 years. 29+5=34, it takes Uranus 84 year to rotate around the Sun and the 12 zodiac signs, 84 divided by 12 equals 7. The 11-year solar sunspot cycle is caused by the alignment of Jupiter, Venus and Earth.
@@MrBlazingup420 Well this is very fascinating! Thank you for sharing, I will read over again 🙏🏻

Interesting take on the origins of Samhain and great storytelling! 👻🕯
Thank you! 💙
We wanted to tell a story based on Samhain and the origins of Halloween, whilst also highlighting the importance of gratitude at this time 🙏🏻
Do you have a similar celebration in Slovakia at this time of year?
@@talesfromafar yes over the last decade or so influenced by Western culture we started celebrating Halloween. Kids usually dress up to school but we don’t do trick or treat at the doors. The Slavs had a similar celebration to Samhain called Dziady. Today as predominately Christian country, we celebrate All Saints’ Day on the 1st of November when we visit churches and cemeteries and light candles. 🕯️It is also a holiday and day off. 😁
Now I know I’m having a good day 😊
Thanks to the story? I’m glad you’re having a good day, and thank you so much for commenting again 🙏🏻
