Randall Carlson is an amazing teacher. He has a way of making even the most complex topics seem like a campfire tale. I've had the great privilege of going on some geology trips with Randall and I learned more in those few weeks than in all my years of school. Anyone and everyone is welcome to join Randall on these trips and in his classes. Check out his site for dates. The vast majority of the human story is a complete mystery. As Graham Hancock would say, "We are a species with Amnesia." We have forgotten where we came from, & therefore we have lost sight of why we're here and where we are going.

THANK YOU After Skool for hosting this presentation from Mr. Carlson. You/After Skool have such a TOP notch platform, it helped spread the message here. Was thrilled to see the notification for the live stream and quickly became speechless at the weight and scope of his presentation. What an unforgettable collaboration of effort. I love you so much for this. You AND Mr Carlson.
Who else is just discovering this gem of a YT channel? I've been trying to think of ways to introduce topics like this into normal conversation, but I always get crazy looks. This is a good way to get people to pay attention to subjects they would otherwise normally think are too far out or are full of too much 'woo-woo'
@@JohnDoe-ef3wo From my perspective, I am not interested in EVERYTHING being bent into some Christian ideology/truth that is based on that persons "interpretation" of the bible. I do not believe in prophecy, but do see that predictions based on observation and other influences does happen. In other words, if some dude bragged about being able to grab women by their genitals...I think of my females in what I call family: I call them mom, sister, cousins, and grandma...especially when the man WAS 59 years old at the time...just a total creep (If in his early 20's, well, still clueless, but not an additional 30 years later)...that "jesus" approves of, right? mmmkay...not listening to that upside down Jesus logic. I would argue that Christians are the source of their OWN problems with society...and I am not saying society is perfect...Christian imply that they are though.
@@wurdofwizdumb1928 there's actually several now apparently. I found a filmora article that lists the top five "white board animation" makers. It's a much more entertaining version of power point. (Why am I googling things for a stranger. I must stop googling things for strangers.) Moovly, VideoScribe, Explaindio, Doodley, Vyond. I'm sure there's more. Googles not gonna put you on a watchlist for looking. 🥸
Certainly will never look at Halloween the same way after watching this; the implications being far reaching. Absolutely fascinating astronomical history and delineation. The combination of Afterskool art and Randall Carlson commentary was a treat for the eyes and ears.
Yah. Halloween is the remembrance of a massive calamity and deaths of our ancestors. The survivors must have been beyond PTSD, only able to keep the anniversary of The Great Death, mute about the horror itself. Seems like something we should try to keep alive in our memories...
This is just absolutely phenomenal. So much knowledge and information about the human story in what most people just see as odd and unusual ancient artwork. Imagine, with all the info we know now, how much we've lost.
the more i learn the less i know, same 4all. as to what i know, its just the beginning, humanity will proxy all knowledge and we are bound for the stars.... its gona be awesome
When you’re doing The Great Work and having Kabbalism/High Magick/AstroTheurgy change your life… and you hear something like this on the forefront of UA-cam Algorithm… all you can do is smile. Thank you Randy. May your journey (as I know you’ve taken it) inspire others to take the same.
Oct. 31, It's supposed to be the day of the Noacian Flood of the O.T. Bible. It was caused by the Day and Night of the loss of Ancient Atlantis when it sank into the Atlantic Ocean. It was an act of God and Nature because of the evil activity of the people of Atlantis some 12,000 years ago.
Thank you for hosting RCarlson. I've thought about Celtic year & realize it makes more sense then current understanding of when seasons begin. The Midway points between solstices and equinoxes mark beginnings of seasons with the solstices and equinoxes marking MIDseason. Samhain marks the midway between Autumn equinox and Winter Solstice, which marks the Beginning of Winter, the darkest QUARTER of the year. Imbolc is midway between Winter Sol & Spring equinox marking the beginning of Spring; Beltane, the beginning of Summer & Lughnasadh, the beginning of Autumn. Each season has 13 weeks, with midseason being solstices & equinoxes. Currently, we are told the seasons BEGIN with the midpoints... we've lost so much understanding of marking the seasons.
@steviegwhizz345 yeah, but he's referring to irish mythology and language. We aren't even celtic. People get it wrong and apply irish culture to the misnomer "celtic". We have a different culture to the Welsh so why would we attribute ours to theirs? Can you see how it doesn't make sense?
As he points out, it really takes only a cursory search to learn there's religious and cultural significance to Halloween. It's sad that people will only ever learn anything if it's featured on social media, they just sit and wait for things to be delivered to be consumed without the curiosity to seek it out. I hope that changes. That being said I'm grateful this was produced and posted.
This is truly breathe taking when you consider the expanse of the earth and the distance between civilizations and yet there knowledge of history is so similar as to the vast destructive events of the earth.
Wow! So, a couple things pop out at me. 1) The “broom-star” as an ill omen must be where the tradition of witches riding brooms came from, and 2) the quintessential ghost costume of a white sheet over the head with eyeholes cut out looks exactly like what Randall showed of a comet shooting through the sky. Fascinating stuff!! I love Randall’s lectures!
The flying of brooms motif came from testimonials at witch trials to "flying" to ritual after taking entheogens, primarily using plants of the genus Solanaceae that are hallucinogens such as Bella Donna, Datura and Mandragora (mandrake). This has been well documented. I suggest the book 'The Witches Ointment' by Thomas Hatsis. Cauldrons were used to cook up the drugs/medicines/poisons, brooms were used to clean up, and all these things were employed in rituals which used entheogens. Thinking about it in the way you are saying it is interesting that one of the possible meanings of the name Ekate (Hekate), the Anatolian/Greek goddess of witchcraft is 'The far shooter'
The original images of witches riding brooms showed the broom inserted top first as this was the two ways to take a drug. Over the centuries the image was badtardised into what is shown today
I head that in the Middle Ages women would run small bars out of their homes and would advertise their homemade beer by putting a broom outside their door.
Had you been utterly captivated you would have not been the slightest bit interested in commenting. Even if you had to pause it because life was happening. 😊
I cant believe I live in a time when I can experience an entire lecture about this fascinating topic, right here in my home, for free. I also cant wait for it all to be washed away.
I love how computer animation can make it seem so real and simple. Its one thing to hear what went on, but to virtually see it brings it alive. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Randall, you are the best! Keep doing what you are doing! I'm an English teacher, and I often refer to your videos and topics. My students are fascinated!
This is so awesome! Thanks to you guys and Randall for making this. Mr. Carlson is basically the wise uncle we all need, and when he speaks I listen. Update: The Sacred Geometry video he did with After Skool changed my life in a significant way, I highly recommend it.
12:22 We have been connected for so long through similar traditions. Of course there are some more unique offshoots, but for many of the major holidays there has been a clean wipe of these connections from our education. I think we have been conditioned to be ignorant of our similarities. While we can all say we're human, that shouldnt be the only education given on the subject. I love stuff like this and I thank Mr. Carlson and this wonderful artist for their efforts in making these connections known!
I was born Nov. 2 of 1987. Was conceived around the time supernovae 1987a was detected. I am also a practicing pagan of more than 2 decades, and a big believer in the mythos of my birthing day. This is my favorite of all your works in this vein, by far. I will be passing this along to everyone I know, starting with my kids and parents. They will love it, I am sure.
Wow just amazing Randall. I cannot communicate how powerful this was and how I thought, naively, that 1+hr about Halloween was misplaced. Thank you for this and may all that watch it pass it on.
That was HELLA interesting! 🥰🎃 Crazy how much evidence there is that everyone was mingled together long ago. It blows my mind that the day of the dead is so universal🤯
You the man Randall been following your work for a couple of years now. It's very scary, the implications are incredible. Thank you for your work can't wait to see what else you find. 🙏
Listening to this, Again I listened last year And I plan on listening to you next year. Welcome Mr Randall Your part of my new way of Celebrating Halloween I appreciate your work! TY ✌️
I knew there was a tie in with this celebration with our path in the galaxy but I didn't even think about the connection to the last ice age, the meteor that fell and caused it, coinciding with a celebration of that time of year. Very cool, I very much appreciate this content and all your work. I love sharing these videos and this info with others.
I absolutely love this, and I have to say that I’m really impressed by the ancient’s ability to communicate the amount of information they do with their symbols. It would be easy to overlook a lot of critical information in cave paintings and ancient such by just assuming it’s artwork, or that the detailed Pleiades depiction is just any ol’ random star cluster with no real meaning
this is the beauty of our modern human intellect. eons ago, human consciousness was not the way it is today. our eon’s mission is to propagate human consciousness by developing INTELLECT. The power of thought. We were BORN rediscover our ancients (that was us) secrets
Awesome stuff as always gentlemen. Thank you once again. Put this on with my boy before bed and he was absolutely glued to the story and engaged in the mystery. had some great questions. He was looking forward to some bugs bunny but had no problem gettig into the first 10 mins of this one. Your videos make connections like no other. Thank you!! 🇨🇦🏴☠️
Randall is our modern-day genius, and he makes me very grateful for the internet because without it, this would be hidden knowledge Thank you, Mr Carlson
I really enjoy Randall's videos. Halloween still has a lot of relevance here in Ireland. And I'm delighted to hear Randall pronounce Samhain properly. I think he's been taking Gaelic lessons 😊
Finish folks from Karelia also share the connection with Pliades and Halloween. They believe it is when our ancestors and loved ones who have passed over are closest/ the veil between worlds is thinnest as they believe Pliades is where they reside.
I have unlearned so much from this channel and you Mr. Randall! I’d like to thank you! Many indigenous communities like mine celebrate Ghost Supper around this time. If you read this, we love that we are now being included in the human story of the Americas and our ways of celebrating Creation. It’s a new tradition, Halloween and I see nothing wrong at all with a day where we honor the young! That’s what modern Halloween essentially does. Children get a voice and a choice (ideally). Honors the hedon within. All things are equal.
The typical and fanciful history of Halloween begins this way: There once was a group of religious people called the Druids. They practiced what we today call Halloween. The End. I was never satisfied with that explanation because it failed to answer the following question- Where and How did they come up with this stuff? Mr Carlson does a deep dive and shares the pre- Celtic truly ancient origins of the very roots of the ancient practices of honoring and mourning the dead. The Whys, the Whos, the Wheres and the Hows. And the significance of both the Biblical and the secular customary historical accounts surrounding a Great Flood. Excellent commentary.
Randall!!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE take a look at the Himalayan mountains and apply your theory there. From my perspective, it looks like a glacier used to sit just north of the mountains, and the flood waters went all the way across North Africa and to Western Australia carving out the east and west Asian landscapes and burying cities across North Africa.
Wow! What a deep dive full of comprehensive research. It's clear a LOT of work went into this video and Ioved it! Ive always been interested in the historical context of Halloween but other videos or websites were giving me the same old info but this was exactly what I was looking for. My thirst for knowledge has been quenched! Thank you so much❤
An observation on the Clay Star map. The Most advance civilization, at ANY time, doesn't scrape its most valuable knowledge into a piece of clay, as an act of superiority. It scrapes it's most valuable information in a disc of clay as the last act of desperation, to send the info FORWARD!!
Sorry. Thank You Mr. Carlson for your Decades of Work. This video isn't just one subject, it is all subjects. I had come to the conclusions that you have come too prior to my learning of your work. I wish I had the memory that you have. I look forward to a one of your tours.
Hi! Great video! Practicing Catholic who love the faith here. The Catholic Church originally celebrated All Saints Day in May inaugurated in the 600s. Was moved to November in the early 800s.
I watched an older video by Randall last year on the same subject, think it was called "The Cosmic Origins of Halloween" and it blew my mind. I went to look for it again this year to refresh myself on the topic, as it is October and I love to immerse myself in the historical (and pre-historical) origins of my favourite holiday Halloween, and the video was gone- not on UA-cam anymore. I am so happy to see that Randall teamed up with AfterSkool to create this vid; what an important treasure is this presentation of Randall's excellent work. Thank you so much to Randall and AfterSkool for this. Also, I would love to see that older video again as well, as it contained much of the same info but it was slightly different as I recall. Anyone know where to find that?
@@ZoneGhostGU Thanks so much for sharing. It was that second video Decrypting the Cosmic Origins of Halloween that I saw. Also thanks for directing my attention to how tube; I now have a new platform to check out.
Holy. Freaking. Crap. Watching Randall Carlson stuff is almost always mind blowing, but this was extra. We have spent decades dismissing folklore and oral traditions very much at our peril!
I was born at 3am on Halloween! Then Mt St Helens popped! So we all moved over by Yellowstone to get away from the volcanos. 😂 I would have told em it was the biggest volcano of all but I couldn't talk yet.😂
Woo I just found this channel, I love learning the origins of various traditions, I have been watching alot of Halloween origin documentarys, alot are very heavily American based unfortunately. I am looking forward to exploring more of your videos. Thanks
In Welsh who follow a similar Celtic story to the Irish & Scottish , November is called "Tachwedd" meaning "slaughter" as it was the ritual slaughter & feasting of the livestock to fuel you for "the dark half" of the year - Sowain / Samhain as the Scottish / Irish refer to it. In Welsh, Halloween is "Noson calan Gaeaf" - "the winter night of the new year". This was the counter part to May's "Beltane" where again fire's were used to purify & bring in life to celebrate the emergence summer & nature's life-power. Bonfires were lit & kept to purify the air & bring light into the darkness ahead. The name Bonfire comes from "bone fires" which were stacked after the slaughter of the livestock.
Interesting, this also explains the continuous use of meteor/comet symbolizing a coming of a new age/era in modern shows from the latest LOTR rings of power, Game of thrones symbolizing magic and dragons returning to the world, to the apocalyptic meteor shows in countless movies. Sorcery riding the broom comet in the sky is an interesting metaphor.
I had read in the past that the festival of the hallows was celebrated by the ancient celtic cultures, and many of the current traditions started by them (and it was mostly focused in honoring dead people and scaring off evil spirits), but I had no idea that the 3 days were interconnected across many civilizations (many of which didn't know about each other by the time they started celebrating), might be the fact that spring can be seen as a symbol of life alongside summer, and fall as a symbol of death (i.e. dry grass, caduceus leaves falling, drying trees, etc.), or maybe there is really some sort of mysticism behind these particular 3 days... It's a similar concept about God and many civilizations through history sharing common ideas about God(s) and sometimes even common practices.
Southern Hemisphere it would be going into summer in November, aboriginals in Australia celebrate this date, Fijians are at the equator region, San people of Southern Africa also throw burning sticks at shooting stars.
I've been trying to research halloween and it's historical relevance for over a year now and not once had I read anything about a world wide synchronized holiday. I had an art teacher a long time ago who described autumn as a season of death. It's when all our crops are harvested and left to die and all the foliage withers. And it comes directly before what was often the most deadly season of the year for humans. Her explanation has always had a great deal of significance in my life. Thank you for all the work you put into this, it's been very insightful
@24:09 The four symbols of the man, lion, bird and bull represent Aquarius, Leo, Scorpio and Taurus, the four fixed signs that appear in the middle of the seasons. They hold the strongest energy of each element, air, fire, water and earth. I’ve heard 22 Degrees of Taurus called the earthquake degree. I’ve always wondered why Christian art and church windows often have these astrology symbols on them because astrology is frowned upon in modern Christianity.
@@mazzy8216 That’s all I know, as far as those symbols being in religious art. I am an astrologer and I do know more about the fixed sign archetypal meanings. As far as the earthquake degree thing goes, I just heard it from someone else and I don’t know much more about it.
I did NOT expect this to be so in depth and tied to Astological calendars but then again..... they probably did not have too many paper mills to print calendars lol What day is it daddy? Wait til dark son and we will go look at the calendar in the sky.
It's either a comforting or horrifying thought when you realize all civilizations and knowledge from them will eventually become ancient and lost including ours.
Randall Carlson is an amazing teacher. He has a way of making even the most complex topics seem like a campfire tale.

First time for me. I love Randall Carlson
Love Randall Carlson… This one is especially compelling
I knew there was a tie in with this celebration with our path in the galaxy but I didn't even think about the connection to the last ice age, the meteor that fell and caused it, coinciding with a celebration of that time of year. Very cool, I very much appreciate this content and all your work. I love sharing these videos and this info with others.
Fool
I absolutely love this, and I have to say that I’m really impressed by the ancient’s ability to communicate the amount of information they do with their symbols. It would be easy to overlook a lot of critical information in cave paintings and ancient such by just assuming it’s artwork, or that the detailed Pleiades depiction is just any ol’ random star cluster with no real meaning
this is the beauty of our modern human intellect.
eons ago, human consciousness was not the way it is today.
our eon’s mission is to propagate human consciousness by developing INTELLECT. The power of thought.
We were BORN rediscover our ancients (that was us) secrets
Awesome stuff as always gentlemen. Thank you once again. Put this on with my boy before bed and he was absolutely glued to the story and engaged in the mystery. had some great questions. He was looking forward to some bugs bunny but had no problem gettig into the first 10 mins of this one. Your videos make connections like no other. Thank you!! 🇨🇦🏴☠️
This is genuine reason to be scared of Halloween. Also incredibly fascinating…
don't turn my stomach like that.
what? scared? don’t live in fear man
@@nivlezemog8379 fear can be your friend if you know how to use it correctly! Dont let fear cripple you but understand its a part of daily life
@@charged710 tell that to the original post not me brother
I see no reason to fear Samhain for any reason. It was saying goodbye to those who had passed away. What's to fear?
Randall is our modern-day genius, and he makes me very grateful for the internet because without it, this would be hidden knowledge
Thank you, Mr Carlson
Just realized how haunting Randall voice can be. Happy Halloween.
Halloween is my favorite holiday, Randall Carlson is my favorite educator on youtube so this video is 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻
Randell is a national treasure and needs to be protected at all costs
You’ve said this before?
I really enjoy Randall's videos. Halloween still has a lot of relevance here in Ireland. And I'm delighted to hear Randall pronounce Samhain properly. I think he's been taking Gaelic lessons 😊
Amazing the art kept me very focused on the information.... thank you
Incredible presentation. Thank you . Easily one of the most exciting lectures I’ve ever heard on this subject .
This is a great Halloween treat 🎃
This might be the most informative thing Ive seen all year. Thank you!
The Japanese name for the Plieades is Subaru. The constellation is their logo.
@@KAT-dg6elAnd somehow Subaru does *NOT* mean Plieades in Japanese ?
🤯
Unity, as in the unity of those seven stars I guess. 🤷🏻
Finish folks from Karelia also share the connection with Pliades and Halloween. They believe it is when our ancestors and loved ones who have passed over are closest/ the veil between worlds is thinnest as they believe Pliades is where they reside.
I wasn't sure when he started out, but soon he began to connect all the dots. It's a fascinating interpretation.
Epic Episode! Randall is the best! I have learned so much watching and listening to him! Thank you for all the lectures and teaching!
Loved this video!!! So interesting and definitely will be celebrating Halloween with a different perspective from now on
My new favorite channel! Thanks for making it make sense. Great voice.
I have unlearned so much from this channel and you Mr. Randall! I’d like to thank you! Many indigenous communities like mine celebrate Ghost Supper around this time. If you read this, we love that we are now being included in the human story of the Americas and our ways of celebrating Creation. It’s a new tradition, Halloween and I see nothing wrong at all with a day where we honor the young! That’s what modern Halloween essentially does. Children get a voice and a choice (ideally). Honors the hedon within. All things are equal.
Hello beautiful
You guys HAVE to do a video with Randall about Atlantis!
BEST YT CHANNEL HANDS DOWN !
Can we get After Skool in dark mode? I’m trying to snooze over here.
Love you Randall!
This video definitely turned in ways I didn't expect... Definitely intriguing! Just wish I could get college credits from watching his video... LOL
This is one of the most epic videos I've ever seen. Absolutely fantastic.
Fascinating material for review, thank you so much for sharing, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Sending love to you from Ontario Canada. ❤️🎶🌹
Hello beautiful
The typical and fanciful history of Halloween begins this way:
There once was a group of religious people called the Druids.
They practiced what we today call Halloween.
The End.
I was never satisfied with that explanation because it failed to answer the following question-
Where and How did they come up with this stuff?
Mr Carlson does a deep dive and shares the pre- Celtic truly ancient origins of the very roots of the ancient practices of honoring and mourning the dead. The Whys, the Whos, the Wheres and the Hows.
And the significance of both the Biblical and the secular customary historical accounts surrounding a Great Flood.
Excellent commentary.
Randall!!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE take a look at the Himalayan mountains and apply your theory there. From my perspective, it looks like a glacier used to sit just north of the mountains, and the flood waters went all the way across North Africa and to Western Australia carving out the east and west Asian landscapes and burying cities across North Africa.
Interesting perspective I hope to see if it pans out
Wow! What a deep dive full of comprehensive research. It's clear a LOT of work went into this video and Ioved it! Ive always been interested in the historical context of Halloween but other videos or websites were giving me the same old info but this was exactly what I was looking for. My thirst for knowledge has been quenched! Thank you so much❤
Right you are!
An observation on the Clay Star map. The Most advance civilization, at ANY time, doesn't scrape its most valuable knowledge into a piece of clay, as an act of superiority. It scrapes it's most valuable information in a disc of clay as the last act of desperation, to send the info FORWARD!!
Sorry. Thank You Mr. Carlson for your Decades of Work. This video isn't just one subject, it is all subjects. I had come to the conclusions that you have come too prior to my learning of your work. I wish I had the memory that you have. I look forward to a one of your tours.
Reading and relating AND SHARING this info and comments is true fellowshipping for the secular.
Randall never fails to amaze me. If he doesn't know already, he'll endeavor to find out. More than just a pretty face.
Hi! Great video! Practicing Catholic who love the faith here. The Catholic Church originally celebrated All Saints Day in May inaugurated in the 600s. Was moved to November in the early 800s.
I watched an older video by Randall last year on the same subject, think it was called "The Cosmic Origins of Halloween" and it blew my mind. I went to look for it again this year to refresh myself on the topic, as it is October and I love to immerse myself in the historical (and pre-historical) origins of my favourite holiday Halloween, and the video was gone- not on UA-cam anymore. I am so happy to see that Randall teamed up with AfterSkool to create this vid; what an important treasure is this presentation of Randall's excellent work. Thank you so much to Randall and AfterSkool for this. Also, I would love to see that older video again as well, as it contained much of the same info but it was slightly different as I recall. Anyone know where to find that?

@@ZoneGhostGU Thanks so much for sharing. It was that second video Decrypting the Cosmic Origins of Halloween that I saw. Also thanks for directing my attention to how tube; I now have a new platform to check out.
the older videos are on the channel geocosmicrex
Randall Carlson is my new favorite UA-camr/educator. An absolute plethora of knowledge. 😊
so awesome!! thanks for sharing this info.
This commentary connected so many dots for me!! Thank you!
Holy. Freaking. Crap. Watching Randall Carlson stuff is almost always mind blowing, but this was extra. We have spent decades dismissing folklore and oral traditions very much at our peril!
One of Randall's most admirable qualities is to look past the choices and habits of those who gave us the history and knowledge we need.
Randallf the White is the true master of this realm.
Yes, Very Intriguing Stories Randall And Thank You!
I was born at 3am on Halloween! Then Mt St Helens popped! So we all moved over by Yellowstone to get away from the volcanos. 😂 I would have told em it was the biggest volcano of all but I couldn't talk yet.😂
Excellent, Excellent, Excellent lecture. This is one lecture I really enjoyed. Thank you for putting it together and sharing.
This is dope!!! Thank you SO much for sharing this!!!?
Woo I just found this channel, I love learning the origins of various traditions, I have been watching alot of Halloween origin documentarys, alot are very heavily American based unfortunately. I am looking forward to exploring more of your videos. Thanks
30:31 ancient proof pokemon existed. and trainers battled naked. we need a whole video on this.
great video btw 11/10
Could not explain it better. You make me appreciate the knowledge you share Sir. Thank you and thanks to all other research teachers!
been following Randall for awhile, did not expect him on this!
He has a previous one too on after skool
Always love rewatching this one. It's fascinating the origins
As always, Brilliant information . Thank you so much for all the research and dedication to our real history 💞🌻☀
Nice to see/hear you Randall Carlson. Didn't expect a lecture from you on this topic on this channel. Cheers.
In Welsh who follow a similar Celtic story to the Irish & Scottish , November is called "Tachwedd" meaning "slaughter" as it was the ritual slaughter & feasting of the livestock to fuel you for "the dark half" of the year - Sowain / Samhain as the Scottish / Irish refer to it. In Welsh, Halloween is "Noson calan Gaeaf" - "the winter night of the new year". This was the counter part to May's "Beltane" where again fire's were used to purify & bring in life to celebrate the emergence summer & nature's life-power. Bonfires were lit & kept to purify the air & bring light into the darkness ahead. The name Bonfire comes from "bone fires" which were stacked after the slaughter of the livestock.
Fired bone creates high fertility for soil and plants. I always burn bones for my organic plant feed in my food forest.
This was great. I love the tying together of all the possibilities, and with the Art too!
Interesting, this also explains the continuous use of meteor/comet symbolizing a coming of a new age/era in modern shows from the latest LOTR rings of power, Game of thrones symbolizing magic and dragons returning to the world, to the apocalyptic meteor shows in countless movies. Sorcery riding the broom comet in the sky is an interesting metaphor.
lol
I came into this expecting the alteration and preservation of ancient traditions and I left pleasantly surprised. Very intriguing video!
I had read in the past that the festival of the hallows was celebrated by the ancient celtic cultures, and many of the current traditions started by them (and it was mostly focused in honoring dead people and scaring off evil spirits), but I had no idea that the 3 days were interconnected across many civilizations (many of which didn't know about each other by the time they started celebrating), might be the fact that spring can be seen as a symbol of life alongside summer, and fall as a symbol of death (i.e. dry grass, caduceus leaves falling, drying trees, etc.), or maybe there is really some sort of mysticism behind these particular 3 days... It's a similar concept about God and many civilizations through history sharing common ideas about God(s) and sometimes even common practices.
Southern Hemisphere it would be going into summer in November, aboriginals in Australia celebrate this date, Fijians are at the equator region, San people of Southern Africa also throw burning sticks at shooting stars.
It’s a very important time for many harvests across the world.
Especially Marijuana
I've been trying to research halloween and it's historical relevance for over a year now and not once had I read anything about a world wide synchronized holiday.
I had an art teacher a long time ago who described autumn as a season of death. It's when all our crops are harvested and left to die and all the foliage withers. And it comes directly before what was often the most deadly season of the year for humans. Her explanation has always had a great deal of significance in my life.
Thank you for all the work you put into this, it's been very insightful
@24:09 The four symbols of the man, lion, bird and bull represent Aquarius, Leo, Scorpio and Taurus, the four fixed signs that appear in the middle of the seasons.
They hold the strongest energy of each element, air, fire, water and earth.
I’ve heard 22 Degrees of Taurus called the earthquake degree.
I’ve always wondered why Christian art and church windows often have these astrology symbols on them because astrology is frowned upon in modern Christianity.
lol read revelations and it's all over. especially when you learn what swords mean and scythes really mean. there's a whole nother story being told
Please share more?
@@thomasspringfield Tell me more please, if you want?
@@mazzy8216 That’s all I know, as far as those symbols being in religious art.
I am an astrologer and I do know more about the fixed sign archetypal meanings.
As far as the earthquake degree thing goes, I just heard it from someone else and I don’t know much more about it.
@@alexzaarabellalightrider1111 I would recommend watching Randalls Geo Cosmic rex channel to learn more
This explanation makes the most sense. On Halloween I plan on having a feast and tell stories of the past.
Does anyone else wonder if Spanish bullfighting stems from depictions of stabbing a bull/Taurus in the shoulder?
100% why
I could listen to Randall Carlson talk about anything he wants for hours. He's a great treasure 🥰💎💕
I did NOT expect this to be so in depth and tied to Astological calendars but then again..... they probably did not have too many paper mills to print calendars lol
What day is it daddy?
Wait til dark son and we will go look at the calendar in the sky.
Pretty much the most amazing video I've seen on UA-cam
It's either a comforting or horrifying thought when you realize all civilizations and knowledge from them will eventually become ancient and lost including ours.
